Review on The Crown Inn
Hidden away in a peaceful village close to the River Glyme and the 'end stone' of the Rollright Stone's configuration (hence the village name Church Enstone), the creeper-clad Crown Inn is a seventeenth-century stone inn, enthusiastically run by Tony and Caroline Warburton. Inside, there's a cottagey bar with a seagrass floor and real ales on hand pump, plus a choice of two eating areas.
The kitchen is noted for its commitment for local produce and a straightforward approach to things culinary - so visitors can expect generous, boldly flavoured dishes along the lines of fishcakes with coriander and chilli mayonnaise, pheasant breast with chipolatas, bacon and cranberry jus or wild mushroom frittata with rocket salad.
Their steak pie is made with locally reared Dexter beef and Hooky Ale is a firm favourite, and the inventory of desserts might range from caramelised apple tart to bread-and-butter pudding. Sunday lunch is bestseller, with roasts as the centrepiece.
