    Friendly and helpful staff, prompt service, good food and great views in good weather. Easy parking. Chairs were somewhat hard and uncomfortable and could do with a wider menu choice.

    The Crown is a 'gastro' pub, but that is not a criticism. Located in a quiet, historic side street in Hastings Old Town, it was one of my favorite pubs many years ago, but has moved with times. The outside (picnic style) seating is great on a warm, sunny day and inside there is a choice of table sizes & styles. I was all set to enjoy a 'no frills' meal but was very pleasantly surprised by the choice and appeal of the menu. The bar has a good choice of local ales and the staff were attentive and pleasant. The food arrived in good time and was very good, in my and my wifes opinion. We thoroughly enjoyed our meal, and will be returning to explore the menu more.
