Long standing pub in the community of St Marychurch which has recently opened under new management. One time POTY winner and regular GBG entrant, the Crown and Sceptre closed in 2020 after 40 years under the same family. Now recently refurbished and reopened by Champion Inns Ltd under lease from Stonegate. (EI). The interior has been cleaned and redecorated with the old bar removed and replaced with one in wood. The interior space and bar divisions are unaltered but the chamber pots and some of the other paraphernalia has disappeared. What remains is tastefully displayed and adds to the new atmosphere .On the whole this gives a smart, contemporary pub which retains traditional elements. Both the new licensees and manager have many years’ experience in the licenced trade and have great plans for the pub including a focus on cask ales.
This Pub serves 3 changing beers (from Stonegate list) and 0 regular beers.
