The Crown Pub and Restaurant in Tendring

Stopped here for the pizza van was a lovely pizza and the staff were friendly no e and clean

Staff are friendly, the roast dinners are amazing. Pub is clean and tidy. Lovely friendly atmosphere ♥ ♥ ♥ anyone wishing to have a belly full of amazing food. Try the crown xx

The whole place has been painted beige inside presumably for the benefit of customers who hate it when pubs have any character or charm whatsoever. Rubbish food. Burger was two cooked-from-frozen kids burgers. Can make much better at home. I was given the excuse that there was only one chef instead of the usual three, but we were one of only two tables in there. They deducted the burger from the bill, but really we should not have had to pay for any food as it was all sub-wimpy.

Had the most amazing Sunday lunch at the crown. The beef was super tender and lovely crispy roasties veg cooked to perfection, and staff friendly and on the ball. Nothing was too much trouble. Will definitely come back sooner rather than later

Awful Sunday lunch. Had to wait 1h+ even though I was told that it was almost ready (had to wait another 30min). Overall the food was horrible. The roast potatoes and chicken where overcooked and very dry. Also, there where very few

Stopped here because we had been turned away from two other Clacton pubs ( we hadn't booked anywhere) but it turns out, things happen for a reason. In this case the reason was that we found the best kept secret in Sunday lunches ever. I for one have paid a hell of a lot more for a roast not even half as good. All the veggies where cooked exactly to my liking, the beef was definitely in the top 2 I've eaten and the Yorkshire pudding was transcendental. Also all the staff where genuinely friendly which is a massive plus. The only down side is that I expect to have trouble getting a table next time I'm in the area

If you're looking for a nice place to stop for a drink in a welcoming environment, including a car park and beer garden, then I recommend The Crown.New to us since lockdown-lifting we've enjoyed good beer and snacks, sunshine and banter. The children can play on the grass and the picket fence keeps everyone safe... pets seem to be happy as well.The staff are super friendly, offer table service and take plastic... I can't wait until their restaurant is open to enjoy what Chef has to offer.

We go to the spa every year and for the last 4 years have always come to this particular pub.Every year it has got better and Sunday afternoon even though we had no reservation they made sure we had the chance to eat and couldn’t have been more welcoming.Staff were fab, the new decor is much nicer, good food. Wish you all the best and we will be back!

After a meal out last night, my fiancé and I popped into the crown for a quick drink but ended up stopping there due to how welcome we were made to feel. The owners are absolutely lovely and Mia who works behind the bar is a real credit to them, such a beautiful young lady, inside and out. Will definitely be going back.

i have visited this public house on several occasions and noticed thatdue to the chefs food and new outlook on his investment in the pub it ischanging into a place that you can get a good meal at reasonable prices.you feel comfortable and safe with the staff and the interior is shapingwell from the past.it seems a lot of feeling is going into this pub and i have noticed that thechefs favorite place is the wall full of small mirrors.this pub has a good size area for the children to play in and ample carparking.i have only one criticism the pictures on this review web page desperatelyneed up dating and i am shore the owners son could be an inspiration tohis farther in showing how to do that.well done chafe and keep going.
