The Crown, Stanhoe

I visited England a couple of month's ago & dropped in on Page. Still the same, everyone (most!, I'll explain shortly) welcome and the Pub full of happy eaters. The brackets - Cell phones swim in a pint tankard on the bar, so beware AND "Gentleman Farmers", to use the term loosely, are NOT welcome if they think it amusing to continually pass wind (I believe Page's description was "Bloody fart") whilst sitting at the bar. Those regulars who were discussing this "Man" were totally in agreement that a Pub, such as the Crown, was above his level of decency and that he should both apologise & desist from such a filthy habit. Boy you talk about rallying round the Landlord! Apart from that enlightening talk the other bone of contention will probably be smoking, or not!! Anyway if anyone does visit this very convivial host & enjoy the remarkable food - give him my regards from Canada
