The Crown Colchester

Superb restaurant really worth a visit. friendly staff and nice eating

Really nice environment, lots of parking and easily accessible from the a12 (from both directions) the staff was very friendly and welcoming. I would definitely go back.

The restaurant has improved since I was last there. this time there was a lot on the menu. only 2 dings not available the service was excellent.

At the arrival at the table, the waiter advised us that only 2 starters are available from the menu and that a series of netzen were not available and that the only dessert banoffi was. that meant to enjoy a cozy 3-course meal, we had only one main course. we arrived at 7 o'clock, at 7.10 o'clock we ordered the food before something else went out. the food came fast and our meal was finished at 7.40 o'clock instead of a long evening it was pretty short cut. I've eaten a lot at the crispy, but that was a disappointing visit, and I'll be very restrained after this experience. at least this was just a family trip instead of friends who made their first visit and could get a very bad first impression of their restaurants.

Always very happy with service at crown, service and staff very rude, especially barstaff. Waitress asked were we ready to order, replayed not yet, waitress came back and said most dishes were not available which left a very limited selection. When ready to order, asked if salmon was available, waitress did you not here what I read off to you, very condescending and lacking customer service. Will not be returning, and will pass on the bad service received from manager and staff. To family and work colleagues. Shame new management has taken over. Crown has now dropped down to a very low standard.
