Encouraged by the many good reviews, and ignoring the recent negative, we thought we would see for ourselves. What we found was a beautiful setting, tastefully furnished and decorated, a friendly host, and excellent, properly cooked and presented food. We enjoyed the Sunday roast beef, and the vegetables wrapped in cabbage were a nice idea, and very tasty. The young... More

I reallise, with extreme surprise, that I had reviewed this restaurant in the past but, unfortunately, I have never visited it before last Saturday night, so looks like I reviewed it rather unfairly and that it was meant for a different 'Crown'! Sorry about that. Anyway, our usual haunts have slipped from favour and so we decided to give the... More

We were a group of friends for a celebration but the atmosphere was nil except for the pleasant and helpful waitress. The restaurant was almost empty. Prices are high for very ordinary food - huge bowl of soup, ungarnished; disappointing main courses - and a few chopped veg wrapped in boiled cabbage. and awful chips. The seared scallops were cooked... More

.....and still as good. I can't really think of anything else to say that hasn't already been said by the other reviewers. The waitress was lovely, and the food was of a very good standard. So give it a go if you're in the area, but I would book first.

My partner had the garlic mushroom starter and the pastry was amazing. We will be back soon, but anyone reading this, if you want... More

After reading review on the site, we visited during our stay in Lymington. The food was brilliant, the atmosphere was cosy and the service was very attentive. All in all making for a very pleasant evening.

We have visited this pub on numerous occasions because we have family in the village and have never been disappointed. Mostly we go at weekends and usually choose the Sunday Lunch because it's such high quality and a generous serving with tasty vegetables which are cooked to perfection. Lovely friendly staff and owner and the beer's good too.

My friends and I have visited this pub twice in the last month. I feel that I must write a review regarding the quality food and beer we have had on both occasions. The first time we visited was after a very bad experience at another pub so it was very late on a Sunday afternoon when we arrived. But... More
