Excellent food and friendly service as always! Service: 5 Location: 5

I enjoy having lunch at The Crown. I've consistently had great food there, and they also offer a decent wine list. It's our favorite spot for Saturday lunch.

We had to make a last minute change to our booking, reducing our booking from 4 to 2 people, and this was accommodated without any issue at all. We were made to feel welcome, and were seated very quickly. Food was very good indeed; starters, mains and desserts all resulted in clear plates. We will certainly be back again.

The service was terrible. We requested an adult-sized portion of chicken nuggets and chips, but were informed there would be an additional charge of £5. When the meal arrived, it was the same size as the children's portion! The food was just "okay" and barely warm. The soup was very watery, and the burger was nothing to write home about.

Among all the Chestnut Group restaurants we've visited, the Crown stands out as the only one that still provides a great selection on the menu. We've stopped going to most of the others, even the Packhorse Inn where we celebrated our wedding breakfast. In our opinion, having only four or five main course options is simply not adequate. That's why we find it worth the hour and a half drive to get to the Crown. The staff are always excellent, and the food is consistently good.

I had an excellent meal that wasn't typical bistro fare, but rather delicious and hearty pub food that was expertly prepared and served. The waitstaff were incredibly attentive, and I want to extend my appreciation to our waitress. We never had to signal for her attention, which is sometimes necessary in other establishments. This approach clearly makes good business sense, as it allows for quicker table turnover. The food was truly impressive, even the horseradish sauce. Overall, I rate the service a 5.

A wonderful place to stay, very relaxing and the rooms were impressive, both what they were equipped with and the decoration/layout. It certainly gave an impression of very good attention to detail, shoe horns and clothes brushes etc are rarely found at even the ‘poshest’ hotels but are a nice touch at The Crown, as is fresh coffee and a cafetière. The grounds are also extremely well kept. All the staff we dealt with, both the night of our stay and at breakfast the following morning, were excellent with a great balance between familiarity and professionalism. Highly recommended and we will definitely use The Crown at Stoke-by-Nayland as our default for future stays in the area. Speisekarte ansehen
