| I use this place a lot and I've never found it anything other than a good basic boozer with decent beer. Dan137 - 29 Aug 2011 09:26 |
| Aware of the bad reviews ventured in here on a Sunday lunchtime to find it pleasingly quiet - a friendly helpful barman serving and all was fine......... adamwalsh - 9 Jan 2011 20:28 |
| Wedge shaped old style boozer on the Seven Dials just north of Covent Garden. The pub is effectively divided into two rooms although it is possible to walk right round the smallish central bar. The front room is mainly standing with a TV above the door for watching the football. the smaller back room has a couple of sofas (Boo Hiss!!), a fireplace and a small number of tables. As an added Christmas attraction the fireplace had a pair of Santas legs hanging down to give the impression he was stuck in the chimney!!!. Christmas card hanging up in the bar gave a bit of a homely feel to the place as well. Ales on were Adnams and Pride (GKIPA was off). Overall the Crown is a pleasantly traditional place with that slightly scruffy feel that I rather like There are not many pubs left like this in the area and it's worth a visit if you are in the vicinity. murgatroyd - 24 Dec 2009 05:55 |
| The long standing previous owner here who retired some nine years ago, was in my opinion the rudest (and most hilariously droll) landlord in London. Forget the other famously rude one at the Coach And Horses. Gabbi was awful.Far worse. The bar stools were chained to the floor and you had to sign a little book to be given the key for the gents..... He would bar you for life for the smallest infringement of his 'rules' So, nearly a decade later I meet my old mate Covent Garden Dave here for a pint, only to discover that the tradition continues - infact has been bettered! What an arrogant old runt the present incumbent is. I think that they must do a finishing school especially for the staff at this establishment. PISS POOR BEER TOO......... AVOID THIS PUB. adrianboult - 13 Jun 2009 16:02 |
| I absolutely hated this little pub. The food was dispicable especially as I never ordered hairs with my food. The pub down the road from it...The Two Brewers was much better and the staff were friendly and kind but The Crown is not a great pub to have a drink in. They had real ales and fruit machines and such but this pub is definitely in the wrong part of London by far. MovingShadow - 2 Dec 2008 20:05 |
