The Crown, Chiddingfold

Having never been to this pub before, I feel as if I have just stumbled upon a real find! I certainly can't agree with any of the earlier reviews, but this must be something to do with the new owners. Firstly, the pub is beautiful and being near xmas, was beautifully decorated and very homely with the open fire roaring in the main bar. A group of us went to eat and between us we had a mixture of the a la carte and the set menus - all the food was superb and the service was first class. The pub itself has a very welcoming atmosphere and there is no stuffiness about the dining area at all. There is even a seperate bar at the back of the pub where there is a big screen for football etc and pool tables, all away from the main bar, so as not to disturb those wanting a peaceful drink...I am so pleased I've found this pub, so I'm going to be recommending it to many people - a perfect place for a Saturday night or Sunday lunch and a drink!
