This used to be an amazing pie place with so many different types of pie on offer.
Revisited recently, but management had changed. There was still tasty pie on offer, but it was nothing like before. Pie itself was great, but the veggie and sides were bland. Small portion and the veg was just boiled!
Easily the best and best value roast dinner in the area. £20 for two courses of freshly cooked food. Not prepackaged and mass produced from a chain pub. Good portion size. Actual roast potatoes (cooked in duck fat) unlike most other places. Childrens' portion also available and excellent size. The service was also extremely friendly and helpful, especially when we were dining with a number of young children.
If in the area or passing through you must visit for food. Definitely will go back for the roasts and to try the full menu in the week.
Absolutely love this place. The pies are second to none, both in terms of selection and quality. They are all served in a nice relaxed environment and are great value for money. You do need to be aware that they can get quite busy at times and do not take reservations, but you can always go to the bar and have a nice drink or two whilst you wait in a nice friendly atmosphere.
Just to update as it has been over a year since I posted the original review. I have just been back, and if anything they have got better. The service is second to none with the waitresses professional yet friendly and engaged. The food amazing. I had the apple pie for dessert and it was as big as the main pies, very tasty, though you may want to share it with someone else
Harry is the man- with his tried and tested method for getting rid of hiccups and great drink recommendations, he made a simple dinner a memorable and joyous one.
We will definitely come back for fantastic pizzas and buttery soft steaks. Definitely worth a visit!
Great food and lovely atmosphere. My BBQ Beef, cheese and Bacon pie was really rather special. Will be going back soon
If you like pies you'll love it here! Good food and good service. As you can imagine on a Saturday evening when we visited it was busy but that was to be expected. Great selection of great Hooky ales too!
Simply the best pies you could ask for. Decent amount of filling and the puff pastry is layered and stands proud. You get some seasonal veg and can choose mash or chips too.
Had a deliciously lovely lunch here today. The pizza was really tasty, freshly made and one of the nicest I have had for years.
The host and chef were very accommodating and there is a really nice relaxed atmosphere.
Will definitely be frequenting the Crown and Tun again and looking forwards to the smoking ovens and tent events in the future.
I wish them well with the new venture It’s great to see an up and coming business thrive after such challenging times of resent. Definite worthy of 5⭐️‘S
Excellent pies and great service, took our dog with us as well
We have driven passed this pub many times, however this time we went in for Sunday lunch, the food was was exceptional! Everything cooked and prepared to perfection ,topped of with a nice pint! Give it a try you won't regret it and I would certainly go again
Fantastic sunday roast. Portion for two was massive. Fantastic dinner with vegetables and gravy. Staff nice and friendly. Totally recomended !!!
We were very warmly welcomed by Harry who looked after us really well, especially the little ones (including a baby). Really delicious roasts including the most enormous Yorkshire puddings we have ever eaten!! Will definitely be returning for more yummy food.
Stumbled upon this place and so glad we did. Harry and his staff made us feel so welcome. A fine pint of real ale , fantastic Sunday lunch . Please try you won’t be disappointed.
Fantastic pub, the staff were so friendly and were very happy to put up with a visit from the Bicester Hash House harriers on a busy Sunday. Very delicious Sunday nut roast too.
Thank you Crown & Tuns
