Had not eaten at the Crown Inn for a couple of years, previously had enjoyed nice meals. Booked for a family night out recently and we were all disappointed with our food, it seemed that nearly everything had been deep fried, even the vegetables were very ordinary. Service wasn't great, some of us had nearly finished before others were served. The prices didn't reflect the standard of food, quite expensive for what we were served.
The steak and scallops were excellent, well cooked and tasty. The lettuce in the salad was wilted. The table service was excellent. Unfortunately the meal was spoilt by 3 pesky flies and heat. We were seated at a table, by the wait staff, where the sun beamed onto us and three flies flew around. We complained and the wait staff put the fan on in the next room and put the air conditioning on. We again complained 15 minutes later , as the temperature was not declining and we were too hot.

Excellent Venue: diverse menu, well priced, flexible with seating & cuisine choice. The meal was plentiful & a taste sensation. Very good service; staff are very eager to please, attentive and friendly, but respectful of ambiance. The log fire, interesting historical decor & occasional live music in the bar, which also offered a pool table. Just a great old fashioned pub (hard to find these days) with none of the obvious annoying modern influences such as pokie machines. Well done!
