Bucking Fastard left this review about The Crown

Another Sam Smith house,which you can walk through with street entrances at both ends.The interior is traditional wood panelled with three sections,a front and rear saloon and a central section opposite the bar.It's typical of Sam Smiths with an authentic feel and many nods to tradition.
Sadly no real ale (even the keg OBB was off) and my keg Sovereign Bitter was indestinct.My drinking colleague had to send his soapy Organic Wheat Beer back ,but at least it was changed for a SS lager without complaint.It was very quiet ,but then why would anyone hang around drinking substandard beer ? One to avoid despite the pleasing interior.

A Sam’s pub in three parts with an entrance at either end of the building. The bar is in the middle separated by two sets of panels, nice. Salmon and brown colour scheme throughout. Plumped for a Sovereign Bitter (a pretty dreadful drink, it turns out), served-up by an old skool landlord. No cask OBB here. Has a beer garden on the pavement at what’s best described as the rear entrance, which is relatively pleasant. Not one of their more notable pubs in central London but a decent stop nonetheless. 6.5
