This place has recently been taken over and reinvented by the same people who have been ultra successful at The Beerhouse, Cadogen Arms and One Bull in Bury St Edmunds and they are very good at what they do.
The same high standards of service, top class fayre and 1st class ales have been maintained and in The Crown the group has taken things to a new level.
I had the Blythburgh Pork with amazingly prepared seasonal vegetables (including a stunning parsnip dauphinoise!) and it was quite simply perfect. Certainly not the cheapest Sunday Lunch you'll ever experience but probably one of the best.

Ate here last night for the second time, and again had impeccable service and lovely tasty food. There is a lovely range of starters and 'nibbles', and their steak and ale pie melts in the mouth! Add to that a warm real fire, good atmosphere (plus the biggest bowl of home-made apple crumble) and the evening was perfect.

Visited on a Saturday with a group of Friends. First of, they have renovated the pub beautifully and kept the charm. Lovely pannelled rooms with great lighting and nice too that some areas are carpeted which dulls the noise of loud diners. They brew their own beer which was excellent. And wines were excellent and well priced. Think we drank too many but it added to the overall enjoyment! As well as the burgers which is what you expect now on gastro menus there were some really interesting dishes and unusual cuts of meat such as a plate of pork, lamb neck fillet and wonderful fresh calamari. We also went for some of the light bites before starters and the whitebait was particularly good although the pork crackling was less so with an aftertaste of oil. (And that was probably the only negative as food overall was excellent and the selection of British cheeses that followed was fabulous). Service was friendly and informal. So in all certainly one of the best meals we've had in Suffolk for some time and will definitely journey back before long. (Garden looked lovely so probably an ideal lunch spot).

A delicious lunch and good customer service. I had the vegetarian polenta and mushroom schnitzel. I'm normally not a fan of polenta, but this was delicious. A pleasant return to the Crown. This is the second time I have been since the new management team took over, and it's the best it's ever been. Thank you.

Easter Sunday ,and celebrating my birthday ,my family took me to The Crown for a beautiful lunch. There were six adults and a little one year old , we all had varied starters which ranged from whitebait, pate and chorizo scotch egg. Although very busy we were soon served our main meals of roast beef or turkey with waitresses serving drinks to us at the table. Deserts topped off a beautiful meal. Darren the manager is a very welcoming host and has trained his staff to look after you ,but they weren't in your face all of the time. Fantastic meal and a very good place to eat, well done The Crown.

I went with a friend mid week for lunch and I can't say that any of the comments here about service or small portions applied in any way whatsoever. The pub is in a beautiful setting and has has a very high quality makeover inside and is decorated and furnished in a very nice and comfortable style. There is a bar area and an adjoining more restaurant style area although in reality is all one but two distinct moods as one is an old panelled room the other not. I had the fish and chips which was a good size portion and lovely hand cut chips that were straight out of good hot and fresh fat, you can tell by how nice and dry and crisp they were. The fish, battered was also perfect as soon as you cut into it you could see it was moist and succulent. The service was pleasant and not over attentive, can't stand that. Oh yes almost forgot to mention they have their own brew house and serve a very pleasant pint.
