The Crown Restaurant Bar

Excellent service by Amy and Cameron. The food by chef Ben was absolutely outstanding. Every dish we chose from the new autumn menu was perfectly executed and really tasty. We will be back for more!

Went to the crown after a dog walk for a spot of lunch on Thursday, we sat in the garden which was lovely, we all had the rotisserie chicken which was very tasty. Our server Deanne was amazing, very attentive and looked after us well. Will definitely return, lovely country pub.

After recent discussions with the regulars and management, thankfully the management have listened and a choice of Ale are now available. This has been a long time coming. Well done to Area manager Steve management for listening to your regular customers. All we need now are the front windows to be unlocked to let the flies out and all will be good.

The restaurant has recently implemented a £5 service charge, which we found rather steep considering we only ordered small plates and dined outside on wooden picnic benches. The quality of the food was average at best, so we felt there was no justification for the additional charge. However, we did appreciate the attentive service from the waitress. Thank you.

The service at this restaurant was fantastic. Amy was extremely helpful, pleasant, and friendly. Our only disappointment was the Eton Mess dessert, which lacked meringue, and the "summer berries" that turned out to be mostly blackberries in a juice, almost resembling a compote. However, the rest of our meal was absolutely delicious. The kids enjoyed their meals, although the price of the ice cream was a bit high.

We booked an outside area for a birthday celebration on Saturday, the weather was a bit wet, however, Shaney kindly offered at short notice to move us under cover on the patio and even helped us decorate the area. The buffet food we ordered was fantastic and plenty of it. The bar staff were all extremely friendly and very helpful. It all made for a memorable birthday celebration. Thank you, Shaney, Gary, and the hardworking team.

We enjoyed a meal at The Crown after our Golf day at Stevenage Golf course, where the restaurant sponsored a prize for our charity raffle. Thanks to their generosity, The Garden House Hospice in Letchworth and The Living Room Stevenage received a wonderful donation. Kudos to Head Chef Ben and his team for the delicious food and flexible menu options, as well as the front of house staff and Manager Shani for their excellent service. Everyone who attended, over 40 people, agreed that the food and service were top-notch. It was a fantastic day and a job well done by The Crown. Thank you!

We chose this lovely old pub just outside Stevenage for my father's wake after the funeral. There were about 40 people at the wake. Parking was plentiful, the pub was warm and inviting and the staff were absolutely marvellous. Everything went to plan, there were plenty of bar staff serving drinks and plenty of space in the pub for us all to sit and chat. We had pre-booked a selection of sandwiches and hot bites. These were all delicious (I especially liked the sausage rolls), the sandwiches were lovely with a great selection of fillings, and everyone had plenty to eat. We would like to thank all the staff, both front of house and in the kitchen, for all they did for us. I would not hesitate...

Decided to spend out bank holiday Sunday here for the terrific pub garden and village pub feel. Unfortunately this is where the positive feedback stops. Prices: Being charged different amounts for the same round on several occasions. Food: Ordered some snacks from the quiz night menu. In delivery we were told we shouldn’t have been sever the food as we wasn’t participating in the quiz. Over £20 for a handful of chips and some nachos that was pretty much a bag of tortilla chips with some relish dumped on them. Very poor value. Drinks: Biggest disappointment of the day. Mainly drinking Guinness and neck oil which was served in Brooklyn lager glasses with no life in them. The pub wasn’t what I...
