The Crown at Ampney Brook is a lovingly restored 16th century inn nestled in the Cotswolds countryside. Always ready with a warm welcome, they take pride in serving quality, seasonal menus that champion our local farms and producers, as well as great wines by the glass and proper cocktails. Elevate your brunch with bottomless drinks and enjoy complimentary bottomless roast potatoes and Yorkshire puddings with your Sunday Lunches.

Food and drink is our pride and joy. The seasonal, farm-to-table menus are inspired by the idyllic Cotswolds surroundings, focusing on top quality meats, fish and vegetables sourced as locally as possible.

At the centre of the action is the open copper kitchen, where chefs cook up hearty dishes such as ribeyes on a Robata Grill, as well as jazzed up classics like prawn cocktails and crème brulées. Sit up at the bar to watch our cocktail shakers mix classic and bespoke recipes, or take advantage of the enomatic machine and get stuck into our fine wines by the glass.

We have something for everyone, whether you’re after a casual weekday lunch in the pub, dinner at the chef’s table or a party inone of the private dining rooms or alfresco domes.

    We got a private pod to celebrate our wedding 2 days prior. Heidi looked after us, listened to our stories and gave excellent service. The food was excellent!

    Under its new brand this place looks stunning! Enjoyed a breakfast meeting here, the most relaxed networking event I've ever attended, much to do with the ambiance. The wife has dined here with friends and loved the menu, Deano the Delighted

    Blown away by this place, stumbled across it by accident but we’ll indefinitely return! ✅ beautifully decorated ✅ diverse menu ✅ attentive wait staff who gave great recommendations and seemed really knowledgeable about the food and drink they offered ✅ food and drink were very tasty, well proportioned portions, freshly baked bread with some kind of magical butter that tasted like actual heaven (I’m not being even slightly dramatic… what was in that stuff?!) ✅ we were lucky as there was a Christmas fair on when we visited ✅ live musicians created a relaxed ambiance, and it wasn’t too loud as it can often be! ❌ the menu and offerings are on the pricy side, but look at the place… I’m not surprised! 🔔 Make sure you download the loyalty app beforehand to get £5 your first meal- we were too late to do so, and will have to return to use it
