Excellent food. Great customer service.

Our second visit and instantly we were remembered from our first, the staff could not be more genuine and helpful. The owner is the most passionate and amazing woman who will tell you stories of her mother her inspirations and her dedication to this gastronomic feast. The food was even more amazing than I remembered the atmosphere most congenital. Food was cooked with memories of mothers own recipes and enthused with execution of quality and presentation. Succulent pork beef chicken and prawn dishes full of again and Sri Lankan delights. I was transported to the island full of flavour. Amazing food. If I was to make a recommendation it would be to be proud of the authenticity of the food and history and fill the restaurant with authentic sounds and music...transport me to the island of Sri Lanka and beyond.. the food is amazing and deserves the complete ambience it warrants. I will be back a thousand times.

Great place to eat. Service is excellent food is really nice with a great choice to suite anybody. Will definitely be back.

We came on a Saturday lunchtime, which was pretty quiet. We were greeted and served by lovely friendly young staff who tried their best to provide a good level of service. I asked for Rosè wine twice and both times was brought white wine (not sure whether The Crown doesn’t have Rosè wine or whether the young staff didn’t understand), however, I didn’t complain because the white wine was nice and I do drink it. Both my parents enjoyed their pies and I think it’s brilliant to offer a small and large version of the pies. However, I had a bacon, Brie and cranberry sandwich with fries as a side. The fries were lovely (too large a portion for one person but my parents helped me eat them, so that was ok) - the sandwich didn’t smell good and the bacon was cold and burnt. Overall, not great but not terrible.

Had a fab meal. Service was great. All the staff were very friendly and helpful. Will be back again

Food is nice but sadly no more dim sum served after 5

When we arrived we was seating into alittle alcove area of the restaurant that I would say would be the kids corner, I couldn’t get my knees straight and my FIL was also struggling to sit straight, but felt very squished, so I went back to the bar and they moved us very quickly, we sat at the bar and then the service was very quick for drinks and food., we was always always checked on up until we needed to pay we had staff walking passed loads and the table cleared but still no one asked us anything so we then pulled up a member of staff who brought the bill then we paid and left if it wasn’t being for the good service moving us we would of being uncomfortable throughout but we was happy all in the end food was delicious. And came very quick.

Amazing food and wonderful service! Can’t wait to visit again soon!

As always, great service from well trained and friendly staff. They will not let you order too much food. Just love the comprehensive menu, full of flavour and very fresh. Sensibly priced all round abs a lovely atmosphere.

Nice place....good atmosphere,the starters were delicious,for the mains my wife had moussaka which she said was very nice...i had stifado which i was very disappointed with,they must have put a full tub of salt in it,i hardly ate any of it as it tasted awful,the wine was nice though as was the keo beer....will return but will certainly order something different
