Oh yeah - and not clearing plates for about half an hour (worse than Wetherspoons!)

And another thing...

The food is very average considering that prices are on the high side for a pub. I think sending out a salad with lettuce going brown at the edges says a lot about the care and attention to detail in the kitchen.

Even now in winter the door is repeatedly left open so all the smoke (and cold air) blows back through the pub. I actually shut the door myself one time, only for one of the smokers to open it again in defiance. There's a few of the old clientele creeping back in there now and it’s not such a pleasant place to go as when it first opened.

Oh yeah - £3.85 for a pint of Peroni, absolutely outrageous!

I haven't experienced the smoking area or its impact on diners but the balony addition has been well done, and overall the pub looks a treat.

I noticed it from the outside yesterday. It looks much better and not at all seedy any more. A shame that alleyway will smell more now, but they've got to smoke somewhere.

Hello!

Nice to see you to see you ______!!! In fact its nice to see that the Crown pub in the Carfax has been refurbished. However I don't think the outside covered smoking area is ever going to work. All the smoke blows back into the pub and affects the diners. I was under the understanding that a covered smoking area had to be exposed on all sides. Might be wrong there though.

The most shocking thing are some of the prices for drinks. Corona Extra £3.05 a bottle!!!! I made the mistake of buying a round, and now I'm so broke my girlfriend is going to have to go on the game.

Two pints of Foster's and a Corona Extra - £8.65. "How Much!!!! - I want to buy three drinks not the pub." Its the kind of thing my dad would say, never thought I'd say it.

Hope all is well!
