Not surprised that 99% of the reviews here are poor. Just had the misfortune to speak to the landlord on the phone - plain rude. Hate to see good boozers close down but, based on his phone manner (or lack of it), I hope this bites the dust as soon as possible. Christ knows how these people survive when there's so much competition. Peacelovingman - 8 Aug 2016 20:43 |
On 12 April 2016 (at around 8PM), I walked into The Crown and noticed that the Man City vs PSG football match was being shown on TV. I asked the barman (an overweight white English local guy in his 50s) if the pub would show the Real Madrid match. He pointed at the TV and he said 'Does it look like it?'. I explained that I hadn't been to the pub for a while and was not sure if there was a second TV screen (I was also hoping that he would switch channels given that there were NO customers in the pub at the time for reasons I now understand!). I told him that there was no need to be so rude given his words and the manner he delivered the message. He replied by saying 'F**k O*f'. I replied by saying that I would not step back into the pub and made a quick exit. The barbarian barman stared at me through the pub window even when I was on the pavement outside the pub. With cavemen like this serving behind the bar in English pubs, is it any wonder that so many are closing down. I am half English and half Spanish and I am sure that this behaviour would never be seen in Spain. It is shocking and I will cheer when this pub closes down. DON'T GO TO THIS PUB IF YOU VALUE GOOD CUSTOMER SERVICE. PS In my previous visit to this pub some time ago, the Guiness wasn't that great....I suspect that The Crown doesn't clean its pipes very regularly! Richard123456 - 12 Apr 2016 22:32 |
This poor pub is desperately in need of a lick of paint and some new carpets, i felt dirty just walking in there! Shame because it has such potential given the location and size. OliverBell - 10 Oct 2011 01:38 |

1st time ever went in last night around 9.00pm after living in Hornchurch 51 years (33 years of legal drinking) - looking for post Tesco therapy. Walked out in under 10 seconds. Reasons; 1) Very smelly (ie; pre-smoking ban) 2) No decent beer 3) regulars making free with comments on strangers, therofore any potential customers being put off even if the first 2 points were not an issue. There is much potential for this to be an above average surburban pub, especially with businesses like Neopost, B&Q and Tesco right on their doorstep - I hope whoever owns the freehold wakes up to what the Crown could be and has rhe cojones to make it into a pub that I would like to give a rating of not less than 7 husband - 10 Jun 2010 21:38 |
