Graham Coombs left this review about The Crown

A mainstream corporate-feel pub at the end of the High Street by the bridge, despite apparently being a free house. One large room extending round the ground floor, tastefully furnished and smartly kept although somewhat lacking in character. Upstairs there is a sports bar/function room with pool tables but this was not open at time of visit. Draught ales still Bombardier, Doom Bar and Atlantic and condition was ok. A reasonable pub but nothing special.

Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about The Crown

Decent-looking pub in a prominent position at the east end of the Rochester Bridges. Opened-out at some stage to leave a 'U'-shaped bar with an attractive, traditional interior. Four handpumps on the counter, and on this long overdue revisit I found Bombardier (£3.65) and two Sharp's beers - Doom Bar and Atlantic.

The Crown is a decent sized corner pub that is at the top end of the high street and close to the bridge over the bridge over the Medway.
Once inside there is a single U shaped room with the bar in the middle area,the right side has normal tables and chairs and looked more like a dining area,the other seating was tall tables and chairs around the edge of the room,the room is carpeted where the seating is and bare boarded around the bar.
There were three real ales on the bar,i had a drink of Sharps Atlantic which went down well,the other beers were Doom Bar and Bombardier.
There were TVs showing snooker and BBC news on mute, background music was playing.
Food is available wit a few people having meals on my Saturday dinner visit.
This is a decent pub just a shame there is no low seating for normal drinkers.
