The Crown- Christchurch

Only place in spences bridge serving food and beerBartender was a friendly dude who was helpful and engaged in our well-being.

Claim is once the largest log structure in BC, it's trying hard to be a biker barLots of motorcycle memorabilia on the walls and surrounds.

I made a reservation at the restaurant/pub through OpenTable, and received confirmation. Everything seemed fine. However, a few hours later, I received a call from The Crown saying they were fully booked and could not honor my reservation. I'm not sure where the issue lies, but my experience with The Crown through OpenTable was extremely disappointing. I would recommend booking directly with the restaurant in the future, although this shouldn't have been necessary.

I had a positive experience at the Crown before, but it's apparent that the quality has declined. The roast potatoes were terrible and everything seemed reheated. I was very disappointed.

The Sunday lunch could have been improved if it had been served hotter, and we would have preferred sharper knives to cut the beef.
