We were lucky to come across The Crown when stopping for lunch when travelling home from holiday. Great food, great beer from the owner's brew house in Bury St Edmunds and friendly well trained staff. Well done to all, the perfect pub!

A great place to eat outside on a sunny day with children able to run around the large grassed area and on the play equipment, climb the trees and look at the stream. The food is better than pub grub, and the hot chocolate where you mix in the chocolate shavings yourself goes down a treat with the children.
The peanut butter dessert was scrummy.

We made our annual visit to Hartest Fete but instead of taking our usual picnic we booked at the Crown for our lunch as it was our wedding anniversary. The pub was its usual vibrant self and we were shown to our table inside rather than the garden which was equally busy. We chose from the specials list, I chose Sardines, my wife Scotch Egg with Blythburgh Pork, my Sardines were every bit as good as Spanish fare, a good 6 inches long, very meaty and served on toast, fantastic!. My wifes Scotch egg was freshly made and warm with a runny egg in the middle, really lovely.
We both chose Salmon as a main with potatoes, green beans and Hollandaise sauce, it was beautifully cooked, flaky Salmon crispy skin, lovely, all washed down with a Chilean Sauvignon Blanc. One of the best meals out at lunch time for ages.

Treated my elderly parents and children to a meal out after visiting a tourist attraction in the area. Despite it being the Hartest annual Fete and consequently extremely busy, we all had an excellent meal. Will definitely book again next time I visit my folks.

I wanted an old village pub with an intimate atmosphere and this establishment hit the spot.
Having pre booked we were warmly welcomed as we entered the pub. We were taken to our table by the waitress who asked if we would like a complimentary carafe of water as we were left to study the menu.The food was ordered and delivered in good time. It was excellent and well presented.
We were not rushed and were able to take in the atmosphere of this old country pub. The restaurant was decorated to retain the ambiance and intimacy of a pub with age and character. The staff were attentive without being overpowering and any questions we had were answered confidently.

Took my wife for a birthday lunch. Great food, lovely staff. But...the music was a catastrophe. 50's rock 'n roll assaulted us to the point of desperation. On a Friday lunchtime! By the time we left we felt All Shook Up. Not a total Heartbreak Hotel but we left with the Summertime Blues. As Fats Domino said 'Ain't that a shame'.

We were taken here by friends . The food was lovely especially the fish and chips. I changed my chunky fries to skinny fries and it was no problem for the staff who were very friendly and accommodating . The pub has a lovely garden which baby Rhys loved . My only negative would be I'm not a fan of salt and pepper etc in sachets . Looking forward to returning for more fish and chips 👍🏻

Was just going to stop for a pint on a Sunday drive but the food looked really good so asked for a table even though they were fully booked and expecting lots of people. Go early if you have not booked as this place is very popular! Excellent roast beef traditional Sunday lunch presented in a bistro style but one of the best Sunday lunches I have eaten in a while. Not cheap but worth the price.

My partner and I enjoyed a lovely evening out at the great location. Unfortunately we didn't leave enough time to get there as it would have been to walk around the green before our meal.
We've eaten before in The One Bull in Bury St Edmunds which is a sister pub to this, suffice to say that both the food and service we had experienced there was carried over to the Crown. Our server was courteous and after we ordered a sharing dessert he explained what each component part of the dish was.
Price not too bad considering what we had ordered
