"Located off the beaten path, this restaurant is definitely worth the journey through picturesque countryside and charming villages. Our Sunday lunch experience was fantastic, with a delicious roast sirloin of beef accompanied by sweet roasted carrots, crispy roast potatoes, and a Yorkshire pudding filled with bacon and sprouts. The extensive burger menu was a hit, particularly with the chilli enthusiast in our group. The kids menu was impressive, and the desserts, including sticky toffee pudding and chocolate brownie, did not disappoint. The relaxed atmosphere made for a welcoming environment where locals and visitors alike, including families with children, felt at home. All six of us agreed that it was a great place for Sunday lunch. The menu was clearly marked with gluten-free options for those with dietary restrictions, and the staff were very accommodating to our children's preferences. The price per person was between £20-30, with top marks for the food and service, and a solid rating for the atmosphere."

"I never give bad reviews but great tasty meal and reasonably priced for food. Drinks were absolutely extortionate but I guess that's how they make their money! A group of 10 celebrating a birthday. They took drinks order seperate, which was strange. After telling them 2 or 3 tines we needed seperate bills as everyone wanted to pay for their own meals etc, they presented us with a jumbled up bill, which was only food. Drink was on a seperate bill, which they would not give us to work out the extra cost. Everyone added up exactly what they had and we all paid separately. They then came to our table and said that we was £9 short. This did not make sense. We asked again to see the bill, so we could work it our for ourselves and they conviently said they had lost it, so how did they know we was £9 short. Either the menu prices weren't correct or they are diddling their customers. All in all, lovely food great company but s**t hosting skills!!!!! First time there, not impressed!!! Would return BUT would tally up as we go."

"We had a wonderful dining experience at The Crown last week. The appetizers on the specials board caught our eye, and we ended up sharing lobster fish cakes, duck spring rolls, and halloumi - all of which were delicious and beautifully presented. The menu was surprisingly extensive given the current post-covid restrictions, giving us plenty of options to choose from. For our main courses, I enjoyed a flavorful and filling five spiced chicken salad, while my husband loved his spicy prawn linguine. The portions were generous, the prices were reasonable, and the dishes were served with a smile. Despite previous reviews mentioning a local crowd, we found the atmosphere to be very friendly and welcoming. Thank you for a great meal!"

"Good location on the high street. Early evening visit. Only one other table occupied on Sunday but it was very clear that we had to be out in 90 minutes to clear the table. Food (pasta) was of a lovely hot temperature but reasonably average and quite expensive for what it was at £30 per head with soft drinks including the automatically added service charge of 10%. Service was pleasant but server forgot a drink and disappeared around the back so we had to sit there and wait to remind her, by which time we had eaten our meal. Unlikely to return."

"We ordered delivery for two people. My partner ordered a butter chicken, which appeared yellow (we're not sure if we received a passanda instead), and my pathia was lacking in flavor. When we called to express our disappointment with the butter chicken, we were questioned if we even knew what it was supposed to taste like. Our food was also only lukewarm, and we were told this was because we lived too far away (3.4 miles). If that distance is too far for hot food delivery, perhaps they should reconsider offering it. Additionally, the two staff members we spoke to on the phone were extremely rude. We will not be returning to this restaurant. There are many other great curry houses in Buckingham, so choose carefully before spending your money. Ultimately, we decided to give another restaurant a try and were pleased with the red butter chicken and pathia we ordered."
