    This was our first time at Crown, and we had a very good experience. It's a spot that was recommended to us, and we were told to sit at the bar. We arrived at 6:00 (with a dining room reservation just in case), and the bar was packed! So, we sat in the dining room and really enjoyed our experience. The brussels were good but definitely could have contained more brussels sprouts. they are paired with cipollini onions and had more onions than brussles. Pizza is clearly a choice here, and ours was delicious. We got the mushroom and sausage, and, again, lots more mushrooms than sausage. BUT, the crust and the taste of the pizza was delicious. Absolute perfection. More options, please! Cookie alamode for dessert. YUM!

    We sat outside for the first time. It was lovely, but would’ve liked the tables to be spaced a little further apart. They currently have a phenomenal drink, called the curse of the were rabbit, which I hope they make permanent on their menu. They always have good IPA choices on tap. The food is always stellar, minus the veal. That wasn’t my favorite. My husband had the burger and loved it. I had a gnocchi special which I thoroughly enjoyed. We also love the chicken tenders and chicken sandwich and the pizzas are phenomenal as well. I love the salmon too. Can’t go wrong here!!

    I think the restaurant is more focused on the after work population versus the night out population. The acoustics are poor and you can’t hear other people at your table talking. Limited food choices but good food overall.

    We had a great table and as soon as we were seated we were greeted by our waiter. Waiter was aces and very attentive, seemed to know exactly what we wanted. He explained many of the alcoholic and non alcoholic beverages very well. The service was fast as the waiter was well supported by the kitchen and bar. Food was great, with everyone commenting on how great the presentation and the taste and quality of all. We have found Crown to be a go to opportunity in Manchester!
