We really enjoyed our time at the Crown Tavern. The atmosphere is definitely more upscale for the area, but still laid back. The service was wonderful, and we were seated promptly even though we were early for our reservation. The burrata appetizer was delicious as was the pear and blue salad. My husband had the special, Delmonico steak, while I had the flat iron, both were cooked as ordered, seasoned well, and presentation was appeasing.

After the Queen tribute at Palace we decided to try the crown tavern. It’s a very nice spot we got there pretty early luckily for us. Got a nice table by the window. Although the menu is limited the selections were excellent. A little pricey, 1/2 doz oysters are $19. Wife had a nice Chardonnay I had a very good red sangria it had hints of peach, very refreshing. For eats we had 2 salads the chicken tender appetizer and I had the flank steak, wifey also had the butternut squash bisque, definitely a must have. The flank steak was almost fork tender and juicy, ordered it medium so the meat tenderizes but still very juicy. Michael was our server, he was very helpful and in point with delivery and suggestions. Definitely consider stopping in if you’re in the area or after a show at the Palace!! Only gave 4 stars because the menu is limited but everything was fabulous. Cheers.

A great first experience at the crown. The food here is excellent, there is no doubt about that. What really brings this place to life is the setting. The old crown theatre revived into a restaurant with a stunning interior. It feels as if you have stepped back into the first half of the 20th century.
Although the menu is limited, it makes up for it in quality and uniqueness. The Veal Holstein with spätzle is now one of my favorite dishes in Manchester. The Bolognese my girlfriend ordered had the quality of an upscale Italian restaurant. Also one of the largest drink menus I have come across in Manchester. The whiskey menu is extensive.

Cool place,great food. We had the special pizza – steak, roasted peppers, sun dried tomatoes, provolone, mozzarella, and red sauce – it was delicious. The drinks are a reasonable pour, and a reasonable price.

A coworker recommended this place while here on a business trip. 10/10 recommend. We had the salmon, meat balls and Manhattans. Everything was very delicious and the service was wonderful. I had already started to enjoy the food when I remembered to snap a picture.

Crown Tavern is such a solid spot in Manchester. The vibe is cozy and chill, but still nice enough for a night out. The food is always really good and consistent you can tell they actually care about what they’re putting out. I’ve never had a bad meal here. The staff is super friendly and makes you feel welcome without hovering. Drinks are well made, and it’s just an overall easy place to hang out and enjoy yourself. Definitely one of my go-to places and I’d recommend it to anyone looking for good food and a good atmosphere.

The food was fresh and had local flair. The service was genuine, kind, and knowledgeable about the menu. We were delightfully surprised by how good the corn fritters. The pep and honey pizza was a personal size with a hint of sweetness. The pork schnitzel crust was light not heavy. We topped it off with the affogato. The biscotti was fresh and just a little soft. Everything was made the way it should be. You could sit inside, outside on the covered patio, or on the lawn in Adirondack chairs. Don’t be put off by the wolf statues that are a bit realistic and I had to keep an eye on them the whole time.

The pizza is can’t miss! We had the hot honey and pepperoni and it was amazing – kitchen was kind enough to make it half meat since my wife is vegetarian. The cocktails were great. Bar service was awesome. Make a reservation !
