A gem, worth the detour!

We went there for a meal on my birthday. Everything about this pub was amazing. The beautiful chilled decor, relaxed atmosphere, friendly staff and of course, the food. We had burgers, I had a ceasar chicken style burger with fries. Good portion sizes, and delicious flavours.

Note: I just saw on the website that their kitchen is now closed for the time being but they are still open for drinks and pop up kitchens and other events. It is a real shame to see such a lovely vegan pub struggling to carry on

Incredible pub!

Visited a late Sunday lunch, only one option (nut roast) but absolutely delicious. Also offer a good selection of non-alcoholic drinks!
N.B. According to their website, the pub doesn’t serve food daily anymore, need to check their Instagram page. They hadn’t posted about food this week, but responded super quickly to my message. Bookings likely essential as the dining area was full and we didn’t manage to get a table before 2.

Pros: Very delicious food, Very good service, Great value for money

Cons: None

So glad we stopped

Fantastic food that just happens to be vegan. We tried 2 small plates as starters - Mac ‘n Cheese and Jerk wings. Both were delicious. We had the banana blossom fish and chips and Caesar seitan burger, again both were excellent. If you are nearby stop in. If you aren’t make a special trip as you won’t be disappointed

Pros: Fully vegan, Excellent menu, Lovely restaurant

Worth the travel to visit

Amazing to have a fully vegan pub in a stunning venue, filled with real plants and lovely garden.
Unfortunately I didn’t take photos of the food but wish the portions match the menu. For instance, instead of mashed potatoes, the pie came with roasted potatoes. And the curry did not come with much veggies as expected, only a few mushrooms and pepper. But it was very tasty. And so was the dessert 🍨😋

Unique, friendly vegan pub!

Finally went to try Harp & Crown recently and it was a lovely pub with a great menu.

Here’s my thoughts: had the jerk seitan wings and tostadas for starters. The wings were great but wasn’t keen on the jerk seasoning, would prefer bbq wings but that’s down to my palette. The ‘tostadas’ should have more than one on the plate imo, £7 is a bit steep for a single taco.

We had the banana blossom fish and chips and the burger for mains, the portions were enormous and the ‘fish’ was great. Minted peas were not my vibe, mushy peas are a necessity with fish & chips, it made my entire plate minty! The burger was phenomenal though, super big and juicy.

The Booja Booja ice cream was well priced at £1.50 for a scoop and very tasty, I’m gutted I ordered cheesecake and the last slice went to another table instead, so I’ll have to come back for that.

Super high ratings for a kind team & lovely atmosphere, albeit a bit cold in the room we were in. I think with the feedback above, my rating could be a 5⭐️ in the future.

definitely worth a visit

for vegans it is awesome. For the non vegans I have brought here they seem happy too.
I love when I work close to here, I eat here when I can.

Biggest problem, the menu changes so often its hard to have and keep a favourite. Which really is a good problem to have. Excellent approach to interesting food with many new things to try.
oh, also desserts.

Pros: sunny garden, get it while you can, always something new to try

One of the best Sunday roasts

I came with my parents (who are not vegan) for Sunday roast.
I had the no beef slice (seitan) roast, other members had nut roast roast and one had the fish and chips. All extremely good and big portion sizes. Worth the 30 mins drive out of Bath.
Great pub, lovely staff and great food!

Pros: Food, Service , Location - pretty outside garden area

Great to have a fully vegan pub!

Lovely and welcoming pub with an all vegan menu. Could possibly do with a few more veg / healthy dishes amongst the sharing platters?

Happy, friendly vegan sanctuary in Wiltshire

This is such a happy, friendly relaxing place.
The food is great. Quite mainstream - burgers etc - but none the worse for that. I had banana blossom “fish” and chips and it was wonderful.
What sets it apart is its atmosphere. Really friendly service and you can bring your dog. She enjoyed it too.

Highly recommended plant-based pub

Service so good I felt compelled to tip. Great food, although menu could benefit from wider dessert range to include a lighter option or two. Toilets superbly clean. Lovely decor and ambience.

Updated from previous review on 2024-04-13

Pros: Wonderful, friendly service, Tiger bread used for garlic bread (!!), Great food all round

Cons: Could offer 1 or 2 lighter dessert options, Perhaps a little more description for menu items

Pudding was lovely, the pub is great and the staff are lovely. The roast b**f was odd and the mains were really expensive. I'd come again for coffee and pudding!

Great vegan food

We were staying nearby and didn’t realise that the pub was actually vegan. Staff were amazing, food was outstanding and the venue was really nice. If you are in the area get yourself booked in. Dog friendly as well so Brucey bonus!

Pros: Food, Staff, Dog friendly

Top quality roast

I went with my partner and his family who are all omnivores and they were all so impressed. The food was faultless. I had the roast and you could tell care had gone in to every element. It was so fresh tasting and a treat to get a Yorkshire pudding which I’ve not had for years! I’ve big portion sizes and all reasonably priced. We were doing dry January and there was a fab selection of non alcoholic drinks. Really friendly staff too.
It’s really nice how the pub area is very separate to the restaurant area so it would also be a lovely place to stop for a drink sometime (although would be hard to not be tempted by the food!)
We also shared the chocolate brownie which was divine. #Veganuary

Pros: Food Quality, Portion sizes , Friendly staff

Cons: A little chilly inside

Best roast ever

I’ve been here two years in a row for a Christmas dinner and my whole family loved their meals (even the picky younger brother). Lovely building and kind staff. The roast is delicious I had the nut roast this year and the seitan last year - both were great! They even have vegan Yorkshire puddings. 10/10 would recommend- some of the profits go to the local animal sanctuary which is a bonus

Cosy pub with quality homemade food

I really enjoyed this pub, the interior is really cosy and nicely decorated and there are quite a few good dishes. The Sunday menu is limited but the options are great and what I did try tasted homemade and fresh😄

It’s very close to coppershell animal rescue too so would make a nice day trip.
The only downside really was that the last available online booking for Sundays is at 4pm, so we arrived for then but were quite rushed, so the last bookings should be for a bit earlier to avoid this.

Pros: Tasty homemade food , Cosy

Cons: Quite rushed

Great food in a cosy atmosphere

You wouldn't expect this: a traditional English pub in the middle of nowwhere- but all vegan! We had maccaroni&cheese, enchiladas, seitan wings and tacos- everything was fantastic. And the best thing ist that a part of their profit goes to an animal shelter in the area.

Pros: Great food, Charity

Friendly + Spacious.

Visited Accompanied For Vegan Anniversary With A Booked Table.
Although We Were Late From Travelling Afar, The Staff Were Super Understanding.
I Requested The Macaroni Cheese, Chips, Deluxe Hot Chocolate + A Pot Of Tea Which All Came To A Reasonable Price, All Were Delicious And The Portion Sizes Really Decent. The Mac N' Cheese Was One Of The Best I've Tasted! We Didn't Have To Wait Long For The Food To Come At All. The Person I Came With Downed Their Sunday Roast Pretty Fast, So Safe To Say That It Was Thoroughly Enjoyed Also!
The Waiting Staff Were Attentive + Friendly.
Appreciated The Aesthetic Of The Interior And How Well Kept The Toilets Were.
I Look Forwards To Coming Back For Sure!

Pros: Attentive + Friendly Staff, Delicious Food, Portion Size Plentiful

Good vegan pub

It's a fairly big space, but perhaps lacking a bit of character compared to older establishments. The staff was super friendly and the food arrived quickly. It was good, I wouldn't say it was great. I think it could be a bit more exciting and packed with more flavour to make me want to go back there again hence not a 5* review.

Such Friendly Staff & Amazing Food

We’ve been to H&C twice now, staying in one of their rooms and having dinner. Obviously if we came back that says it all.
I remember the first time we drove the 80 miles to get there and walked in to find the place rammed. I thought this place can’t be vegan, not in the middle of the countryside. I had to check the menu but yep fully vegan and pretty much every table was taken. A proper pub - vegan 🤯!!
We’ve always found the staff super friendly and helpful. We had none vegan friends with us the first time and one of the starters they had on was sourdough with cashew cream cheese and ‘salmon’. My friends were convinced they we’re eating actual salmon that’s how realistic it was. It wasn’t on the menu the last time we went but we got to try other wonderful food.
Highly recommend this place, makes a great base to visit Bath or go walking.

Pros: Atmosphere , Fully vegan, Amazing Staff
