Old Boots left this review about The Crown Inn
An unspoiled “Victorian” pub a bit of a walk uphill from the town centre. Unusually for a Sam Smith’s pub it’s GBG listed. My Old Brewery Bitter was good bordering on very good. Internally it’s double fronted with a room off to each side, a small sitting room to the right with banquettes and Britannia stools and tables, on the left a larger room is dominated by a pool table, it also has bench and banquette seating. The short entrance corridor with a Britannia table leads to the counter located in a drinking lobby. Off to the right is a further sitting room in similar style to the other rooms. The counter has two pulls with OBB plus a selection of the usual Sam’s kegs. It appears to have been lovingly restored to 19th Century style by Sam Smith with their usual skilful hand and no expense spared.

The dog ate my notes. However my trusty papping shows a traditional Sam’s pub with a parlour bar serving cask OBB with at least two separate rooms, one loungey and the other public/games (with a pool table). It is (unusually for a SS) GBG listed and has a rare *** CAMRA Inventory listing though it’s not based on opulencey. I didn’t even Untapp my OBB, so it must have been decent enough if I don’t remember it specifically! Next time I’ll do this one first rather than last.

It felt a bit like sitting in your grandma's house in the 70's. And there's nothing wrong with that.
