I can't see how this deserves such a low rating as some have given it. Stopped by this week and found it a good, solid place to drink, with 3 real ales on hand pumps and some quite good food too. And it didn't seem that expensive to me either (but then I am a southerner, used to coughing up far too much per pint). When so many pubs in this area are going out of business (e.g. the Queen's in Warwick-on-Eden), this seems to be a good choice. 7/10

Now has 3 real ales on handpump.
|
Sadly the beer is never to good and its still way way more expensive than other pubs even when use my discount card.
|
Great news, The Crown now gives Camra members with a "current" membership card 10% discount on Real Ale, please don't offer out of date cards or ask for discount on other drinks or food.

Thricebrewed you work there so nice post,
|
have just been for a pint of the geltsdale and something to eat, don't know what this pubman fella is on about, staff spot on, nice and friendly. beer bang on, and the food... well i can't say i've had anything better in a long time. barry shaw chipolatas and then lamb shank for me. yummo!!!
|
Well Pubman, why not indendtify yourself, I still feel we have something in common, if only good beer.
|
Ahhhh I fear you may be a certain person who frequents the crown. This is the reason I amongst others drink elsewhere when you�re in. You would not happen to be a certain Bob would you? As your narrow minded point of view smacks of the rubbish he spouts. Keep the crown suits you down to ground. It's refreshing not to hear you moan about the bridge being closed.
|
Ah - you've woken up at last, it must be spring. I would agree the beer is overpriced, as for poor quality I cant remember sending a pint back exept when it was first out and warm, my only complaint is when bland non local beers i.e. Theakstons and Green King are the only ones available. Geltsdale should always be on.
|
I am a regular and stopped going in crown as beer is truelly awfull as is the service and the staff. You cant defend that. If you do defend that you cleafrly dont know your bum from your elbow. Shocking beer overpriced and no atmosphere
|
I guess pubman is not local otherwise he would have tried the Crown a couple of times, pubs are rarely busy at all times. Judging by his lack of reports he is probably not a regular pubgoer, I go in the Crown almost every day - and I have no connection with it, as for working in any pub - no thanks. If he cares to identify himself if ever in the area again perhaps I could enlighten him about village pub life.

well beer finder I fear you work for the Crown as it is clearly never ever busy and food is poor as well I have been told. Sorry to inform you pub is dirty but staff are friendly if incompetent. Agree with bashstreetkids post awful pint.

I cant understand the last two comments, staff are always friendly and bar always clean, if its busy of course you may have to wait to get served - a busy pub is a good pub.
|
Boring atmosphere, badly kept pint & surly staff!! Oh forgot - dirty as well
|
Popped in and popped out again after waiting to get served. Went up road instead
|
Up market hotel near station, Waltons bar usually stocks two real ales - one from local brewery Geltsdale. Friendly staff and homely atmosphere, closes most weekday afternoons.
