Situated in the charming village of Granborough, The Crown is a uniquely English restaurant that combines a traditional pub setting with excellent food. The dinner menu changes monthly to keep the dishes seasonal, featuring a variety of stone-baked pizzas available to eat in or take away. The mains include the likes of braised fillet of lamb and pan-roasted hake with a mussel and pancetta chowder.
Pop in on a Saturday to enjoy bacon, blueberry and maple pancakes or scrambled egg and smoked salmon on toast from the brunch menu, which is served from 10.30am until noon. Lunch is available from Tuesday through to Saturday, with a range of grilled panini and sandwiches served with fries and salad – why not try the steak baguette with caramelised onions and blue cheese? For a more formal midday meal, start with baked figs with dolcelatte cheese and halloumi chips served with pesto mayo. Lunchtime main courses include flavoursome harissa chicken and black pudding sausages with caramelised onion potatoes. All can be enjoyed from the comfort of the charming wood-panelled conservatory. Themed menus include steak night, Chinese night and A Taste Of evenings that showcase a different cuisine each month, as well as burger and a pint deals, so there’s something for every occasion. In the summer months, the large family-friendly garden boasts an outside bar and restaurant that makes use of a pizza oven and barbecue, and can be hired for private functions and parties, allowing guests to enjoy the best that this village pub has to offer.
