| 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. lolo9801 - 26 Jun 2008 21:15 |
| 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. nicebloke - 10 Feb 2008 14:51 |
| Really try to like this pub as the only one in the village but would rather buy booze to drink at home as it is so anti social. When I moved to the village I hoped that the pub would be the social centre but in fact it's the social club of Newdigate villagers who have several drinking holes they don't use as they have been barred so many times fairyairline - 18 Dec 2007 19:36 |
| Six of us went there for lunch a few days ago and were anitially a bit apprehensive given some of the negative reviews. It was quite busy but not overly so. The food and drink were fine and the landlady gave us a large helping of chocolate brownies for good measure at the end of the meal. We were cheerfully and efficiently served which made a big difference. Hugh.Williams5 - 2 Nov 2007 15:57 |
