This is a good old fashioned pub just off Acklam Rd in the Boro. On the day I was in the barmaid…read morewas on fine form cajoling the customers and generally having some good banter. It is fair to say the clientele is mixed (read into that what you may) however on a hot summer's day this is a really popular venue. If you are on your own, don't panic as the customers were very friendly and this struck me as an easy place to pass an hour and have a good laugh as the world goes by. The beer was good, although like all Sam Smiths pubs not a lot of choice. That said; the beer was really very nice and exceptional value for money (I got charged just over £3 for a pint of bitter and a pint of lager). There are a few tables outside for those who fancy enjoying the Middlesbrough air. Inside, it's a typical Northern Pub. As far as I could tell there were no juke boxes, sky TV or any other distractions to take you away from the ale. I think I have found my second home..

A great pub/club if you like alternative music, although they run several different nights (Rock…read morenight, Quiz nights etc). The pub it's self is spacious with plenty of seating and some pool tables. There is also a large dancefloor. The drinks are cheap and there are usually offers, such as 2 bottles for £3, as it is aimed at students and they also do a 'loyalty card' scheme whereby you can obtain certian discounts. The place/tilets can get messy and dirty towards the end of the night though!

The Crown is really easy to find, being a bright yellow corner building with Crown down the side on…read morebig black circles. Open 7 days a week, it used to be an old cinema and so the interior is huge with their being quite a big dancing area, a long bar with lots of staff on (so it doesn't take long to get served), a seating area overlooking the dance floor, a 'games' area (pool tables, itbox and side seating) and a group of tables wiht bar stools near the bar. The best night for the Crown has to be student night on a Monday. It costs £3 for entry with it being about £1.50 for pints and £1.25 for a spirit and soft drink mix. Shots are a pound. The music played is a mix of most modern or in the charts stuff and you can request songs if you climb the stairs to talk to the dj. The bouncers are quite friendly though the bar staff can be a bit grumpy at times (undertandable really with the nature of the job). Other nights the crown has is gay night and rock night that I know of. The only complaint I could have is it gets really crowded and it can be hard to grab a chance on the pool table. Generally though the music is good, prices are good and it's well worth a night out there!

Since I was alone, I sat at the bar. Sam, the bartender was both friendly and helpful. He made some solid recommendations and let me taste (more than) a few. Make sure to check the hours. They are not open until late afternoon. (I did not check first and got there an hour early...fortunately, there are other pubs in the area....

It had but a little to the better in that the room we occupied had been 'upgraded' with a jacuzzi bath. As was usual in this great inn were the toiletries, bathrobes, tea/coffee making facilities.....I could go on for ever as there is so much in the rooms. Alistair and Karen are perfect hosts and will do anything to make your stay perfect. I have carried on, somewhat, about the room but one thing that mustn't be missed is the food. Alistair is rarely away from the kitchen. The food that comes out is beyond description. All locally sourced. In the evening we started with a seafood platter for my partner and an awe inspiring lobster bisque for myself. My mouth still waters thinking about it. Main course, for both of us, was a dressed crab. A perfect meal. Breakfast in the morning was a full English for myself. The black pudding has to be tried. My partner had scrambled eggs with smoked salmon. Those plates filled us up for the day and the drive to Edinburgh. If you are in the area, this is the best place to stay but book early because it gets filled quickly. Thanks K & A, and your wonderful staff, for another great nights stay.

The food order was incorrect but quickly changed so shows the good quality service. The sweet potato fries real let down as i am always excited to see them on a menu but this time they where just undercooked, the parmos where average and even though two parmos where ordered only one small garlic sauce provided (although im sure if we asked they would of gave us another) but we didnt finish the full meal to need a second. Over all id say the food is over priced for what we had comparing to local restaurants serving the same dish for £3-4 cheaper.
