Food was good, service was very average though and they did not thank me after leaving a pretty decent tip which was rude, atmosphere was bad, and the waitress started a conversation with us mid meal while I was trying to eat, not okay, also was very expensive for what we had, shame as used to be a great pub.

Hartest is a delightful village set around a traditional green and rich is stunning period houses (with over 50 of them listed). The Crown is exactly how a village pub should be - a beautiful 16 century manor house with many retained features. The setting is idyllic with an extensive play area for children and access to pleasant riverside walks. The fare is of a high quality - good tastes and some adventurous ingredient combinations. The wine list is reasonable and sensibly priced. On top of all of this is a friendly, welcoming and attentive staff with a great desire to make the diner feel content. The Crown is part of a small pub/restaurant chain centred on Bury St Edmunds - all worth visiting

Hartest is one of the prettiest villages in Suffolk. The pub has been 'done up' and serves very good food. Wines were good and the wine waiter knowledgeable. The roast beef was delicious and a large portion !! Good vegetables and served with gravy and roast potatoes. Another had pork and excellent crackling. Recommend the Rijoka wine Reserva.

Arrived on a Wednesday for my partners birthday. Six of us had drinks in the garden very pleasant. Pork scratching from behind the bar not good ! Very large lovely garden and a very nice pub but I think that's where it stops!
The pub was quiet. We ordered starters I had what was called Monkfish scampi to start. It was just like normal pub scampi, but a lot more money. We had a very long wait for our mains. I had pork belly which I found very dry. None of our mains came with veg so we had to order sides of veg and potatoes which I hate, I think a meal should come as a complete meal. I then had a pudding of a trio of chocolate desserts. This was £14 and a complete rip off. A good night but nothing to do with the food. Wont be returning.

Just a quick review, went after work for a few beers in the sun with a pal. Beautiful garden and excellent location. Can't comment on the food, but the menu looked decent. Lots of parking and friendly staff.

We have eaten here several times and cannot fault the food, but sadly the service on this occasion fell short of the mark. One of their sister establishments suffers from the same "The Cadogan" in Ingham . To wait 30 mins to receive a starter is not good service and the main course was the same. It would seem that these two establishments maybe just do not engage enough staff??
