The staff was very polite and helpful and the food was lovely the meat in the steak pie had large pieces of steak and was very tender

Beautiful meal and service just wished there had been a little more meat

We were a party of 14 on Saturday evening. The food and service were excellent as usual.

Service was good food good waitress vey nice what more could you wish for

Booked table for 7,30 with friends a get together after 6 months wait, table was ready welcome was very pleasant and friendly. did not give you chance to sit down before they were asking what you wanted to drink. We ordered drinks and then started looking at menu again within minutes they were up with their ordering tablet asking if we were ready, felt rushed so ordered the 4 meals, there was only 2 more couples on the tables eating so they were not really rushed off their feet. Meals came within about 12 minutes 3 looked good but I knew mine was not going to be good. I ordered cod triple cooked chips with mushy peas. the batter was so hard and crispy the fish inside was overcooked even when I got to the thicker end the fish was dry tasteless and the batter hard, even the chips were hard and crispy overcooked like they had gone cold and then recooked same as the fish, the nicest thing on the plate was the tarter sauce, I do not like complaining so just battled on and ate what i could . the other 3 meals were very good and friends enjoyed them. Anyway poor choice for me ,we had a few more drinks, then paid the bill , As we were leaving Lee one of the waiters asked if everything was alright I did have to mention about the fish and chips not being very good and for the price I was shocked, He did apologise to us and said we should of said something. I dont like complaining especially as we waited so long for our get together I did not want to ruin our conversation and the atmosphere we have when we get together.Really I should of said something as what I had was really the worst food I have had at the Old Crown Lentons Lane.

The food and service was excellent. Although they were very short staffed the girl that took our order was lovely, not at all fazed by the fact that she was taking ordered delivering meals, clearing tables and serving drinks. We will certainly dine here again.

Lovely food and service. Great value 2 course lunch for £10. Good portions. I can recommend the sticky toffee pudding!! Fantastic friendly pub.

The staff coped admirably on a very busy sunny Sunday during the Commonwealth Games. We had the generous carvery. Enormous Yorkshire puddings!

Booked at 10am Sunday morning for a quarter too 6 booking. When arrived they said they were running out of food for the carvery and couldn’t guarantee there would be enough for us. Also most of the meals off the menu they had ran out off. They mentioned that they had had no number for me but on my booking there was a telephone number. I was disappointed but understood they didn’t anticipate how busy they was going to be. It wouldn’t stop me going again though as there food is delicious and staff are lovely just think communication could of been better

We had booked our table for 6pm on Thursday 21st July, The pub seemed busy as there was only 2 people serving, a barman and a waitress. We did wait a long time (approx 50 min) to have our order taken However, the food was delicious, worth the wait. To be honest, I think there was a party upstairs as well, which added to the wait.

Food was good - unfortunately the set of men to our right were vile - disparaging about women an the language was choice - l think maybe if l go again l probably won’t l will ask to sit without being surrounded by people

Wed lunch and Sat evening food superb as usual. Service excellent and great value for money.

Yet again another nice meal and friendly service will be coming again

My family and I have not been to the old crown for Sunday lunch for about 18 months. We had a lovely lunch food was piping hot fresh vegetable it was all absolutely beautiful. And the staff could not do enough for you . And may I also say with an elderly mother. How kind they all are. Well done.

Always great thank you

An excellent meal (as always , never been served a disappointing experience yet ) and that was echoed by our guests who were on first time visit there and will definitely be back again.
