The Cotswolds isn’t short on country pubs, but The Crown in Cerney Wick offers something a little different. We’re not just another place for a pint (though we pour a good one). We’re a modern take on the classic pub experience, blending rich Anglo-Indian flavours, laid-back service, and a fresh, welcoming space that feels like home, just with better food.

A Menu You Won’t Find Elsewhere

Forget pub grub. Our menu is inspired by the Anglo-Indian story, a blend of British and Indian culinary traditions that’s as vibrant as it is comforting. Think the classic Railway Curry, Indian Small Plates, and our much-loved Tikka Masala Puff Pastry Pie. From spice-led sharing plates to tandoori classics, we’re all about bold flavours, seasonal ingredients, and dishes that surprise you in the best way.

Whether you're here for a casual garden lunch, a midweek pint with friends, or a family dinner that lasts into the evening, our menu has something to suit every appetite - including plenty of vegan and vegetarian options.

Our Story: Tradition Meets Twist

We’re proud of where we come from. Housed in a historic village pub, The Crown blends old-school character with a fresh energy. Our Anglo-Indian focus pays tribute to a fascinating chapter of British-Indian culinary history, reinvented for today’s tastes. It’s tradition with a twist.

Add in local ales, seasonal spritzes, and a curated wine list, and you’ve got a pub experience that’s unmistakably modern yet comfortably familiar.

Not Just Food, But A Place to Gather

With a sun-soaked garden, cosy interiors, and a dog-friendly welcome, The Crown is a space for everyone. Whether you're settling in for an afternoon, popping in for a drink, or celebrating something special, you’ll always find good food, good drinks, and good people.
