Just five minutes from the central train station is The Crown. Egham is a university town in the Borough of Runnymede, so a comforting and lively pub like The Crown is a welcome find. At The Crown, an inviting experience awaits, whether you're lured by the excitement of live sports, the promise of classic pub fare (think the timeless fish and chips), or the opportunity to savour local cask ales.
For those looking to graze and share great bites with friends, The Crown offers a great grazing assortment, which can also be enjoyed as starters. Indulge in a variety of dishes, from crispy coated prawns and panko coated calamari strips with sweet and sour red onion, lemon mayo and rocket leaves, and Japanese style dumplings glazed with a sticky Korean BBQ sauce, served with iceberg lettuce, sweet & sour red onion and spring onion to nachos smothered with melting mozzarella and Cheddar, jalapeños, salsa, guacamole, sour cream and sweet and sour red onion.
For a wallet-friendly lunchtime treat, consider their lunch menu, offering a satisfying deal of a pub favourite for an affordable price. You can even add a starter for a few pounds extra, choosing from a seasonal soup of the day and prawn and calamari duo. For your main, perhaps you’ll order the grilled chicken breast topped with streaky bacon, melted mozzarella, Cheddar and a deliciously sticky BBQ sauce, set on marinara sauce and served with chunky chips, beer-battered onion rings, peas and a grilled tomato, or a almond pesto linguine with wilted spinach, slow-roasted tomatoes and sautéed mushrooms.
If you still have room for dessert, why not order the sumptuous sticky toffee rum sponge drizzled in sweet toffee and rum sauce, served with a jug of creamy custard.
