    We had a lovely meal at The Crown on Friday. It was a really cold evening but the pub was so warm and there was such a nice vibe. The staff were really friendly and welcoming. We all had the squash dish which was amazing! It was so tasty and they were good portions too. We have had several meals there before and they've all been really good. An added bonus for us is that it is dog friendly. We loved watching children with their parents playing card games and spending time together. It's such a great place to go and we would definitely worth visiting.

    À very cosy little pub not too far from the sea and perfect for a mid-walk lunch. Delicious food, an impressive range of drinks, and a very generous welcome - including to our dog!

    Lovely food as always. Our turkey curry was delicious and our friends who were dining with us had a very generous portion of fish and chips. The batter was nice and crisp and the chunky chips were just right. Loved the panettone bread and butter pudding we had as a desert. Great service, very efficient and friendly. The restaurant was very warm and cosy with the open log fire in the bar.
