The Crown Inn - Rutland

We decided to try The Crown based on a recommendation. The atmosphere was nice, however, we were disappointed with the food as it took over 45 minutes to arrive and was just average. Our table ordered the scampi chips, which were good, but the Salmon King Prawn Tagliatelle lacked sauce and only had one prawn. The Tuscan Chicken was tasty, but the green beans were overcooked and difficult to eat. We had originally wanted the pan-fried Sea Bass special, but it was not available. It seemed like the restaurant was understaffed, with our waitress serving at least 10 tables. Unfortunately, we do not plan on returning in the near future.

We have visited The Crown multiple times and it is the only restaurant where our entire family finishes their meals, even my 8-year-old and 5-year-old. The portion sizes are perfect, and they even include a couple of scoops of ice cream for dessert. The lamb tagine we had tonight was amazing! We will definitely be returning many more times. We adore this restaurant!

The food at this restaurant is truly exceptional, standing out from typical pub fare. The service is charming, and they offer a delightful pint of Bass. The building is also beautiful and the bar is bustling. Overall, we had a great experience.

The prices are good, the food very average, I had the Beef which was fine, my partner had the Pork which was tough has old boots, not enough potatoes 2 each? the sweets are good, would we come again? maybe not.......

Duck!!!!…..mind the beam between the dining area and the bar! I had roast pork that came with the usual accompaniments washed down with an Oakham ales Citra.My friend had the vegetarian option,a mushroom wellington. Everything was hot and tasty, a decent Sunday lunch, with good service
