Crown and Trumpet Inn

A word of advice - treat “out of towners” with a little more courtesy. A good village pub is a beautiful thing but they would not survive were it not for the custom of people who would not be deemed locals. The landlord here needs to understand that running a quaint pub in Broadway is going to involve serving people who live somewhere other than Broadway. If he can’t come to terms with that and treat people with some basic courtesy, he should consider running a pub somewhere else. The very average food would have been a little more palatable had it been accompanied with an ounce of warmth and courtesy. Good manners and a smile cost nothing.

This pub has a "local" culture. If you're a tourist (contributing to the thriving Cotswold economy) be on your guard here. We sat at table that was reserved, but only planned a quick drink. 16.05 we sat down, 16.45 the table was reserved for. A "local" person, I think female, but certainly don't want to assume her pronoun, loudly began telling her partner that we shouldn't be sitting at that table and should be sat somewhere else. Perplexed (and embarrassed) I wasn't quite sure what to do but rationalised in my head it was ok to sit at the table we selected. She then loudly stated "I JUST DONT GET THE GENERAL PUBLIC SOMETIMES". Wow. I then noticed "her", sorry "their" table had a little plaque saying "LOCALS TABLE". And then I understood the apparent discrimination. We sat in the wrong area of the pub. Our skin and being didn't fit because we were not local. We did not have the power and control that the locals had. We were 2nd rate citizens. It's 2024, #bekind. Do not visit this pub if you value humans, empathy and kindness, you simply won't find it.

Lovely pub, great atmosphere and friendly service. Food extremely basic which was a shame. Yorkshire pudding was inedible ,overdone. Roast sunday dinner served in the evening appeared to be warmed up.

Desperately disappointing. We returned to the area after 20 years with fond memories of this pub, but oh dear oh dear. The staff were nice but not overly friendly, the beer well there were lots of pumps, lots to choose from on the menu but sadly not much was actually available on our visit. Apparently waiting for delivery. Now for the food !! We didn’t expect to much, it offers a traditional basic pub menu, eg fish and chips, steak and chips, plus a few slightly more exotic dishes such as chicken chorizo with roasted parsnip and potatoes in a sauce. My partner had steak and chips. It was ok but nothing special. To be honest you cannot go to far wrong with that. However, I went for the chicken chorizo. What a mistake. Absolutely awful!! We read a lot about how pubs are struggling and so we love to support our traditional English pubs. But oh my goodness this place seriously needs to up its game if it wants to survive. As a minimum employ someone who can cook basic food.

Our first time in the Cotswolds, we chose to stay at the Crown and Trumpet for 2 nights in early May. What a pleasure! We had a lovely room overlooking the street and the outdoor patio. We were there for Coronaton weekend so the patio was lively and fun, as was the pub. Excellent food and drink, lovely staff, easy check-in and comfy, quaint, clean room, surprisingly quiet too! Would ABSOLUTELY stay here again.

We stayed room only for three days. Room is clean, the owners and staff very friendly and the location’s two minutes from the heart of the village. We’ve stayed here before and will do again.

A tasty dinner at the end of a long Cotswolds walking day…..comfortable , welcoming, and busy! Glad that we booked ahead,,,,they were hopping but still the service was good and the food and the ale were terrific.

Very poor meal, Brie wedges were not warmed enough to even melt the cheese in the middle, fish pie had minimal fish and a sauce that was flavourless and powdery, few garden peas, carrots and a a bit of cabbage thrown on the plate and small potatoes were hard supposed to be sauté. Worst meal I’ve had for a long time very disappointed. Waste off our hard earned money

Bar man incredible rude just because my drink was flat in the end he replaced it then muttered won’t be serving you again horrible experience stay away both me and my family didn’t deserve that from a person that is involved with the public
