We’re a village pub in Stoke-by-Nayland, rooted in our surroundings and shaped by the people who come through our doors. Our cooking centres on familiar pub classics and a daily fish board, using local produce where it counts. With a thoughtful wine list, a garden terrace, rooms in The Folly and three lodges, we’re a place to eat well, stay comfortably and feel at home – we’re always worth the drive.
Our menus follow the seasons, with fresh catches, pub classics and produce from nearby growers and makers. From Sunday roasts to simple plates, it’s food shaped by the region and served without fuss.
There’s always something happening at The Crown, from wine suppers and special menus, to craft workshops and quiz nights.
