Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about The Crown
Good-looking old hotel opposite the Abbey, with two separate bars and semi-traditional furniture and décor throughout. I went into the right-hand side (which turned out to be more of a lounge / dining area) and found three real ales on handpump: Bath Ales Gem, Dark Star's Hophead and Spring Break (£4.20) from the Greene King 'Future Brewers' range.

Directly opposite the abbey. Very friendly staff and though it could still do with freshening up it is a decent enough place. 3 real ales on.
