The quality of the food and wine is absolutely outstanding. We knew that we were in for a treat when the flatbread arrived; it was freshly made, with just the right amount of bright green pesto and scattering of micro herbs to take it to the next level. The menu is short but perfectly formed and the same could be said about the wine list; unusual inclusions like a (delicious) Catalan white signalled that we were lucky to be in place where those making the food and wine choices knew their stuff. I am still dreaming about the kedgeree; I am lucky enough to live in London and be surrounded by amazing places to eat but this dish was the best I have ever tasted. Perfectly balanced, with peas to add pops of freshness and the most delightful “ketchup” (I don’t even like the red stuff so this is saying something). Special mention to the staff for their superb service and Jason, the magician in the kitchen.
It’s also an attractive spot in a stunning village.

Went as part of Eat Out to Help Out - so glad we did. Menu was inventive, presented beautifully and tasted delicious. We felt very safe plus their beer is very nice, the atmosphere is always very nice

We went for a meal on a Monday evening as part of the Eat Out to Help Out scheme.
We were expecting just good pub food but it was actually a set menu with just a few dishes. We both chose a starter and a main and wow - it was delicious. Really high quality restaurant food, they obviously have a brilliant chef.We also had great service and they have done a lot to ensure social distancing and safety.
Highly recommend!

Wood-fired pizza in the beer garden with the kids. A big winner all round.
Good Covid safety procedures and lovely alfresco food.

This is a pub with everything going for it. It's a gorgeous building with a large, peaceful beer garden. It's in an idyllic rural village, but near enough to Bury St Edmunds to be accessible. The beer is locally brewed and really good (the brewery own a few local pubs which are all great). Staff were friendly and helpful.
Menus are limited and change weekly, with a choice of really high quality options - these are always updated on their website. Portion sizes are generous, so you won't be left disappointed. Veggie options weren't so inspiring when we were there, but I've no doubt they would have been tasty. You can order individual plates, but two courses were £20, or three for £25.
Ideal place to go for a date, with friends, or with your grandma.

We have eaten at the Crown many times previously but this was our first visit since lockdown and we visited as a small family group to celebrate a birthday. The group consisted of adults with young children and we were allocated a large table away from other guests and offered a limited menu, but which provided plenty of suitable options for everyone.
Social distancing measures were carefully maintained by the staff and other guests and there are clear instructions for visitors. Tables were immediately cleaned by the staff as soon as customers lef and the toilets were spotless.
On the evening of our visit the weather wasn't great, but the young children were still able to take advantage of the excellent play area, and there are hand sanitising stations installed right next to the play equipment.We always enjoy our visits to the Crown and the evening of the birthday celebration was no exception. Strongly recommended.

Popped over the The Crown to apologise in person for having to cancel a family meal due to a number of our party feeling uneasy about the current coronavirus issue and decided to stay and have a bite to eat. Their Wednesday Pie & a Pint deal was on so went for a steak & onion and a chicken & mushroom. Both were packed with filling and full of flavour. They came with mash, veg and gravy and at £12 were excellent value.

I was visiting the area for work and was recommended to this pub by the B & B owners for an evening meal. A nice friendly pub, with a pleasant ambiance, friendly service, decent choice of food which was very tasty and satisfying. The pub was so good I went back on my second night. I did not have my dogs with me but it was obviously a very dog welcoming pub with a number of locals and exceptionally well behaved pets. I was a little bit disappointed that The Crown is some 80 miles from where I live as would otherwise see it as my perfect local.

Fabulous food. I had the chicken and mushroom pie. You could taste the mushrooms were fresh. The tiramisu was to die for! So full, but excellent value for money

Recommended by friend we went today and had a great lunch at this lovely pub in a beautiful setting. Service was friendly and all staff were helpful. I had the roast pork, which was delicious and plenty of side veg, the rest had veggie options- the mushroom pie went down really well as did the curry and 'veggie roast. Then one of the best sticky toffee puddings I've had. Look forward to returning when the weather's a bit better to have a wander round the village

I can not recommend this Sunday lunch enough. We enjoyed a selection of light bites from the ‘while you wait’ menu which was a mistake as it meant we could not manage dessert or quite finish our mains
We had white bait which was crisp and served with a small portion of mayonnaise; some bread which comes in a brown paper bag to keep it hot. Two small loaves of freshly baked, hot crispy bread served with a side of butter. We also had the pork crackling and apple sauce. These were all delicious and come recommendedThe mains of pork belly was a huge delight. Served with Yorkshire pudding, the crispiest roast potatoes; cauliflower cheese; carrots and cabbage. All deliciously cooked, served hot and large portions. One of our party had the roast beef which was served with the same accompaniments and was served pink
None of us could manage a dessertOur compliments to the chef and the lovely waiter and waitresses who looked after us today
