Pleasantly surprised on a return visit. The chef has been replaced, and our our fish and chips were the best we have had in years. Freshly prepared.
We believe the new owner will revamp the interior.

We plan to return. A nice country pub.

We popped in last week following a country walk. It's a nicely kept / improved pub with a good pint of cider on offer (Weston's Stowford Press) and a mix of clientèle. An interesting building with several different seating areas. If you're in Capel and fancy a pint, it's worth popping in

How I agree with Simonkey7. Yes the landlords are doing their best to make this a village pub but the 'regulars' are destroying a good thing. I'm not an incommer, my family have lived in the village for over 70 years. As I have said before the majority of the regulars are not locals and are extremely rude.

Yet again another lovely pub ruined by rude and arrogant locals, I spent many years in and out of this pub and have seen its many ups and downs. New landlord and landlady are trying hard to bring this place back up and should be congratulated for their efforts but are being let down badly by many a regulars attitude and behaviour.
I love this place yet my heart sinks at the thought of going in there at the moment, I do hope things change very soon.
maybe the thousand or so villagers who don't go near the place should start going en-masse and reclaiming their village pub!

It seems apparent that some the so called "newly moved in" and "locals" wish to be greeted to The Crown with a fanfare of trumpets and a red carpet.When this does not happen they choose to blame it on the terrible people ,who have been enjoying the pleasures of this wonderful hostelry for many a year before the arrival of these new celebs.If some of these "newly moved in" critics were to get off there high horse and actually tried to join in and interact with some of the "serfs", they would find them thoroughly decent people.More than likely though they will skulk in for their bi-annual half a lager or glass of wine,for which I am sure the landlord is eternally grateful, then slope off home to type up their vitriolic remarks. I would suggest in future they stayed indoors where can hold themselves in the aura of high esteem they feel they warrant.
