The Crown

The Crown is an independent freehouse on All Saints Street in Hastings Old Town, close to the country park and the seafront. The pub is run as a family business and serves modern British food from a kitchen using seasonal, locally sourced ingredients, with lunch service from noon to 4pm and dinner from 5pm to 9pm daily. The bar concentrates on independent breweries, pouring local beers and ciders alongside European and English wines, a curated range of gin and whisky, and coffee, hot chocolate and loose-leaf tea. The walls double as a rotating gallery, showing work by local painters, sculptors and photographers that changes through the year. The pub keeps regular hours seven days a week, from 11am to 11pm, and has been featured in the Good Food Guide and Harden's restaurant guide. It functions as both a neighbourhood local and a dining destination within Hastings Old Town's cluster of independent pubs.
