This pub is noisy when the band is playing - whoever they ask to sing clearly can't and I feel sorry for the residents around having to put up with the awful noise. Mentioned this to the "landlord" (a spotty little oik) and he told me where to go - wont be going back there agin - if u wanna drink I advise The Surrey nr. Brookwood - a much nicer pub all-round!

this pub is real friendly. the bar staff always make you welcome. you can gaurantee a good laugh in here and also the girls are worth the visit. being female myself, i am not interested but look out boys you can have a good time. when they have bands on then you can really let yourself go!!!!

if you're easily embarressed like me then make sure you dont visit on the nights the dancing girls are here theres something a bit off putting about naked women wandering around to turn the jukebox over wont hurry back
|
it's a friendly boozer and the dancing girls are always good for a giggle shame the tvs are so small but worth a visit
|
New owner took over last week. Nice to see some stock behind the bar instead of running out all the time!!

Nice friendly little boozer, decent beer and free live music. Last week there was a band called The Rhythm Pigs, the best band I've seen in ages.
|
This is a great pub on a Friday evening for live music. I've seen many great local bands there including Second Time Around, Six Miles Away and Ruptured Rabbit. Great atmosphere and lots of fun.

The Crown is a good example of a well managed pub. It seems (and possibly is) too small to be a pub at all, so has a very cosy feeling. I have to admit that I wasn't too keen on being unable to sit down without other people who were standing being virtually forced to sit on my table, or having cues stuck in my eye when I was sat by the pool table.
But the landlord and landlady have certainly done the best they can, so I take my hat off to them. The beer is good and well served, the staff are wonderfully friendly, and it does feel like a home from home. Children are very welcome, but again the constraint is the space, and kids being kids .....
The Crown is a pretty good place to watch sports - the screens maybe small, but believe me, you won't be far from one! The garden is pleasant and has some facilities for kids.
Overall, a reasonable watering hole.

Oh Dear...
Made the unforunate misake of visiting the pub this week...
Visted on an evening when the 'dancing girls' were in.. Not by choice did not realise until i ordered my first drink...
Stringfelllows this place aint... If you have any sence of decency or simply do not want to be put off your booze for life dont bother trust me!!!
Only scores 2 because my drink was ok.. What I tasted most of it was spat out with laughter when I saw what a £1 a dance can get you!!! (Believe me judging by this £1 is over priced)

This is probably the worse pub i have ever had a pint in.
You are growled at by the locals if your not with anyone they know, a complete sh!thole

Live music now at this pub. Vic Cracknell and Alan Wise played here recently.

Erm, I would like to disagree, but not sure I can. Basic. Fine as a pub crawl destination.
|
All i can say is this pub has to be in my all time top 10 worst pubs in the U.K that i have visited, the furnishings are naff, they do not take card payments and it feels like there should be a boxing ring inside the establishment for the locals that frequent it!!
