On 20-3-2009 yateley said : "Last year in the Pub Food category of the Shepherd Neame Pub Awards, recognising more traditional pub fare, the Crown and Cushion won the top prize and was praised for its "fabulous food with a terrific choice of quality dishes". Judges said the pub, run by tenants William Upton and Julie McNally, was "a dream local pub and a true winner". this year, following on from that success, they have now scooped the top prize and been crowned Shepherd Neame Pub of the Year.
Well deserved congratulations to William and Julie; just reward for all their hard work and vision, over the last two years, in creating one of the best pubs in the area."

On 19-5-2007 yateley said : "As confirmed by the map above Biltong's comment should read "Located (on the Minley Road - A327) between the A30 and M3 (a stone's throw from Jct 4A)". The standard of service and quality of food has improved out of all recognition under the new management and I thoroughly recommend a visit to this congenial spot if you are in the area. There's a choice of lovely walks on the doorstep (Hawley Lake or Minley Wood) so bring the dog with you, but bear in mind 'Fido' will be more than welcome in the garden but, alas, not inside. "

On 16-5-2007 biltong said : "Located between the A30 and A3, worth making the effort to find if you're in the area. It's not really a 'locals' pub due to its location but for those looking for something different to the normal banal 'clag' in this area, you won't be disappointed. On the plus side, nice garden, a medieval banqueting hall (carvery), no foul mouthed yobs or half-wits give this place something genuinely different."

Free entry and a decent beer too."
Report
On 16-3-2007 yateley said : "I gave up on this pub under the old regime but today I found it having a face lift under the new ownership of Shepherd Neame and it's latest management. The law of averages dictates that sooner or later somebody will make a success of what is potentially a gem of a country pub. Watch this space!"

On 04-5-2005 farnboroughman said : "The hall outback is spot on, used to be dusty and old which was good but a bit fresher now. The food on Sundays (carvery) has always been very good and still is. In the summer this pub cannot easily be beaten, cricket playing next door on the field, a large woods across the road and far enough away from houses to keep the chavs and unruley council kids away. The pub in front maybe smallish and quite empty at times but still okay, it is however a little out of the way for many people to get on foot as taxis are expensive late. A pleasure to visit this place and eat..."

Report
On 17-1-2004 jonsteed said : "This Pub has recently been refurbished. It has a nice Bar and a Medieval Hall attached that is also open for Drinks. It is situated right next to a cricket pitch and so is very pleasant on a summers day."
