About The Crown
On Stafford St in Market Drayton, The Crown is a pub and bar built around a seven-dish menu that runs from fish and chips to bangers and mash, with a roast beef Sunday dinner served on weekends. Tuesdays bring a steak night deal, the steak arriving with chips, mushrooms, tomatoes, peas and home made onion rings. A large patio at the rear gives space for outdoor dining, and dogs are welcome throughout. The step-free entrance suits visitors with mobility needs, and families with young children are catered for with a kids menu. Those wanting to eat off site can order takeaway or delivery. The main area can be booked for events or parties, and reservations are recommended for a table. The pub opens daily, and allergies can be accommodated with food served in a separate container.

Customer Review Summary
Sunday lunch draws the most consistent praise, with reviewers repeatedly calling out the roast, the veg, and the "piping hot" plates, though one visitor who arrived later than booked found the meat portion light, noting the lamb was fine but gammon was running low. Close behind, the Tuesday steak night gets singled out, with diners describing five steaks cooked to order alongside chips, mushrooms, tomatoes, peas, and home made onion rings, plus a free drink included in the price. Reviewers also mention the outdoor patio for lunch by the canal, the beer and ale selection, and a buffet put on for a birthday party that accommodated allergies with separate containers. Several describe the current owners as personally welcoming, going out of their way for regulars and families, and the dog friendly, kid friendly atmosphere comes up often. The pub is described as feeling like a family occasion spot, with one reviewer recalling being bought a birthday present by the owners during an event there.

“Popped in without booking for the Sunday roast. Food was piping hot and delicious. Lots of different vegetables and so tasty! Excellent value for money too.”
- Mike Roberts
“Very enjoyable Steat Night Deal. 5 steaks, cooked as requested with plenty chips, mushrooms, tomatoes, peas and home made onion rings in a crispy batter with a variety of sauces and a free drink included in price of £15-£20 depending on steak chosen. Excellent choice of very good Ales. We visited here on our Narrowboat holiday but if we lived here this would be my local, great pub.”

“Andy, Jordan and I came for tea tonight. Food was soooooo yummy, the staff are so lovely and Michael & Nicky always go out there way to make us feel part of the family!!! It’s very important that we can find a place where our son can feel comfortable, welcome and at ease. 5 stars from us! Highly recommended ⭐️”
- Dale Downward
“The pub is under recent new ownership and we have been for Sunday lunch and Tuesday steak night on a number of occasions. Nicky and Michael are always really friendly and being a dog friendly pub is an added bonus. The food is always excellent evidenced by the clean plates that go back through to the kitchen. Moey is generally there to welcome us and is always friendly and welcoming. All in all The Crown is highly recommended.”

“My favourite local pub, always a great atmosphere that you just can’t beat. Staff are lovely and go above and beyond for you on every visit. The food is much better than stereotypical ‘pub’ food, we often come for celebrations and birthday meals! Great job guys well done :)”
