We apologise for this inconvenience.

Located between Chipping Norton and Woodstock, the Crown Inn is perfectly situated to explore Oxford and the Cotswolds.  For Over 300 years this Inn has been welcoming visitors and travellers from afar as well as providing a home from home for the locals. 

We are a family run free house and the Crown Team are part of that spirit. Thomas Clavier, our Head Chef, fully embraces the ingredients on offer according to the seasons.  Our lamb is from the local village of Over Worton and our beef is grown in Oxfordshire. We try to source our ingredients as locally as possible. Our menu changes seasonally but also includes weekly specials. 

Our ensuite rooms and 2-bedroom cottage have all be renovated to a high standard and are comfortable and cosy. They are traditional yet contemporary in design

"Just wanted to send a little note to say a huge thank you. We stayed at your hotel last week for four nights with our Labrador Sidney and we think it is one of our favourite places now. The hotel was beautiful, the staff were so nice and showed so much love to Sidney, great service too. We have re-booked for October and cannot wait to come back."
"Beautiful, traditional pub with open fire area. Friendly and helpful staff. Good local walks which The Crown have helpfully provided maps for. Lovely quiet spot - great location for exploring other nearby towns and popular Cotswolds destinations. Extremely Covid aware, following all recommended guidelines without being overbearing. A wonderful stay and we hope to return."
"5 stars for everything. Loved it. The staff were all lovely, and the owner George really helpful in recommending a visit and giving us a map and everything. Food terrific and the atmosphere of a lovely old country inn was right there, in beautiful surroundings"
"Had a fantastic meal here last night with a group of 6. Food was fabulous and the service so professional. Highly recommend the Salmon Niçoise salad. Little hidden gem."
"Found by chance and so glad we did! Super food and great service. The menu is small which I find much better as it's easy to choose something!! The homemade pie (chicken, bacon and mushroom) was very tasty and the vegetables were cooked perfectly! Highly recommended."
"Excellent pub with high quality bedrooms"
"The staff were ALL great. Really friendly, welcoming and approachable. You can tell they are a really great team! The food and drink was amazing. The pub/restaurant/garden areas are all really lovely and relaxing. We stayed in the superior twin room with the pale blue bathroom and it was SO NICE. We would definitely come back again and recommend to ANYONE as we can’t fault a single thing."
"Excellent overnight stay here. We stayed in the Lidstone room which was exceptional. Beautifully styled, spotlessly clean and very high end feeling. The bed was really comfy. The location was perfect for us, in a gorgeous quiet village which made for fab views out of the windows! Breakfast was delicious, gutted we missed out on Sunday dinner (as it finished at 3pm) as I’m sure it would have been delicious too. All the staff were very helpful and friendly."
"In a COVID safe environment and staff who were attentive, knowledgeable of the menu, we enjoyed some excellent food; mainly locally sourced and cooked to perfection. We tried the braised and confit duck; which was outstanding, and the organic beef. It was hard to fault any aspect of the meal, with a good wine selection, Hook Norton ales, I would highly recommend this restaurant/pub even if it’s a bit off the beaten track, well worth the visit."
"Have had dinner here a few times and it has been consistently good. The quality of the food is outstanding and the service excellent. It is also a nice old fashioned inn with a lot of charm"
"Great to see the Crown up and running again. We are very fortunate to have such a splendid pub on our doorstep."
"I thoroughly enjoyed my first pub outing in ages. Full marks to the efficient covid process, the menu and charming service."
"Great food, lovely garden- we will definitely come back."
"The service was friendly and we had an excellent lunch in their pretty garden."
"I have had the most wonderful lunch and again was not disappointed, fabulous food and great service in beautiful surroundings, recommend!"
