The Old Crown Coaching Inn Restaurant Diner Reviews
"Beautiful restaurant! The food and service is world class for a fraction of the price. The chef is amazingly talented with a creative yet somewhat nostalgic menu, that is a true delight. Special mention needs to go to their wine list that has some brilliant and unique wines that leave you wanting more time to try them all."
"Attended the Titanic evening at this venue. The food was exceptional and the wine list amazing. Congratulations to all the staff for organising such a wonderful evening. We shall be returning again as soon as possible !! Thoroughly recommend."

For 33 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).
