The Crown & Cushion looks a bit more like a hotel/restaurant than a pub from the outside, but inside it proved much more like a pub than we anticipated on our Monday evening visit. All locals were drinking only. Indeed the front bar seems to be set aside for drinkers. A larger room off to the rear left can accommodate diners, whilst the Eton Snug is off to the rear right of the bar.
The bar was decorated nicely for Christmas with a large tree and plenty of lighting. Wifi is available, if you require it. Phone reception in Eton is very patchy. So, this can prove useful.
At one time (2004) the Crown & Cushion had a Good Beer Guide entry. But cask ales have long since been dispensed with. The keg selection remaining was Marlow Rebellion IPA, Eton Tap Pilsner, Amstel, Inch's, Birra Moretti, Fosters, Thatcher's Gold, Strongbow Dark Fruit & Guinness.
Some of the locals had clearly had a bit too much to drink - again something I wasn't expecting in upmarket Eton. But the lack of real ale or cider means I won't be coming back.

There are claims that the pub dates from 1753 however the interior is quite modern with a carpeted bar and pastel shade decor. The main room with the bar on the back wall is rectangular and has a few high tables but standard seating too with a pair of window seats. A man v food challenge fills one wall and looks rather crass. Another side room has an unusable dartboard with seating in front and a strange wall mural of a Space Invader game screen.
To the other side of the bar a door leads to the "Eton Snug" which has a single long rough hewn table and a framed display of barrel caps on an end wall. There is a courtyard paved garden to the rear.
Two beers from Rebellion, Mutiny and Roasted Nuts plus Lilley's Crazy Goat cider. Food is apparently served but I didn't investigate.
The pub felt a bit soulless I thought, not helped by being chilly with the fire unlit and only having a couple of other customers, one being a bloke who kept trying to engage me in pointless and uninteresting conversation.
