We were in a rush so I didn't get good pics, but this place was adorable. Stopped by tonight and grabbed a beef hot dog with sauerkraut to go as well as a carne asada taco and cheese flatbread. Everything 10/10. I'm literally coming back soon for that hot dog, I should have gotten two. The drink was great, came out quick, vibe was chill and people were nice. Low lights, college football going, pool table, all the goods. read more

At last! I've found my spot for delicious scotch eggs! I love how light theirs is and that it comes with mustard sauce. The server was super nice and the kitchen prepared my meal fast! I got scotch eggs, a hot dog and Mac & cheese to go. All so very tasty. read more

A good place to chill and bring your dog to the patio. They have a live band from time to time I think. I didn't get a chance to try their food yet but plan to. Drinks are good and service is friendly. Will be back to give an updated review read more

Easy walk from the Marriott Allen hotel, located in nice shopping area with multiple other restaurants and shops. Service was pretty good, as dual waiters were attentive and consistently checked on our table. In on a Thursday as we went here for some NFL game watching. Had lemon pepper chicken wings, they were good and chicken Greek salad- seemed a bit lacking on the salad part as was not much there. Other entree was chicken sandwich - no issues. Drink special was $1.50 off Texas beer. Overall, good visit and would reir read more

Over priced, under whelming bar food. Live music was ok but just overall very dirty feeling. Old sticky tables, dark environment. Service was ok after I was seated although, I stood around entrance area for 15 mins waiting to be acknowledged & seated. I guess they dont do that, so I ultimately just found my own seat and had to waive someone down for service. read more

I usually don't write bad reviews about anywhere but I was ask to leave this establishment for no reason and was discriminated against bc of my disability. I got off a 3 hour flight from Las Vegas with my service animal and went to this place for a snack because I was hungry and waiting for my friend to get off work. The manager or owner (he didn't introduce himself) came up to me and told me my dog wasn't a service animal and asked me to leave. I told him my diagnoses and showed him my medication to which he replied, that's not a service animal. We were just on a flight where he was a service animal. I had ordered food and told the bartender that I would pay and leave as the manager told me I was not welcome in their establishment. He gave a bill for food I never received and when I told him I didn't receive the food he told me he could make it to go. I don't live here and I cannot take to go food to nowhere. Unfortunately for the person who was the manager/owner I am well aware of my rights as a personal living with a disability. I am also an attorney and he will be hearing from my personal counsel to request the video surveillance where my dog was laying at my feet, in a service vest, and doing nothing to indicate he was anything other than a trained service animal. read more

Why do I keep coming here? Well, Allen doesn't have a ton of dive bars for one, and this only qualifies because it is dingy AF. They have a large selection of drinks available. Secondly when you are shopping or playing a long day of Pokemon Go you just need a beer bad and this is your only real option. They have the best location to snag a table on the patio green for a drink. Inside is a bit depressing so head out to patio overlooking the green space, or for the events put on by Watters Creek mgmt. Also, they have some live music inside as well. Service is not their main focus. The food is on theme but still not the reason you come here. I mean I will keep coming back. I drink beer so legit. read more

The Lion & Crown Pub - Drinking a fresh pour on the patio. - Pubs Near Me - Allen, Texas

Stopped in late on a Saturday night with a group of 5. We were seated promptly, in a corner as far away from the stage as possible. it did not matter the band was so loud we could barley talk to each other. on top of how mind numbingly loud the music was, it was not that good. The singer needed a lot of work, like honestly I have heard karaoke singers better. All that aside the service was not bad, but not great. We ordered drink and apps, but got the apps before we got our drinks. Guess the bar was backed up and the kitchen was not. Fried 5 sampler, $20: Curly fries, onion rings, fried pickles, fried jalapenos & mini corn dogs. its a big plate, but just a bunch of frozen stuff that is deep fried. It was ok, good for a big group. I would not get it for an individual meal. Whole 9 yards burger, $13: It was fine. I honestly did not read the entire list of ingredients which does list chili as part of the part of burger. I was a bit surprised when I took a bite and found Chili with beans on the burger. I ended up scraping off all the chili. not a fan of chili with beans. In general it was ok, but would not recommend because of the chili. Drinks: The beer menu is large. I had a beer, but several at the table got signature cocktails. In general the drinks were not very good. In the end, its a bar and if just getting a drink in that area its ok. but if looking for a nice dinner I would look at the other options in the area. They honestly need to turn down the music. Cannot recommend or return. read more

I know it sounds weird, but the tacos are amazing. I've tried a few things and have yet to be disappointed. read more

Allen location is ok. Love the idea of a Craig ranch location. You're charging too much for a Tito's drink (before tip $10.50). Lots of other options if I don't drink beer. read more

Amazing service from Melany and the food was alright and beer was great as well with the atmosphere

My friend & I went there for lunch for their British food. Immediately upon entering we were taken aback by the sewer smell. Not pleasant. There were only 2 other tables of people at noon. Definitely not the lunch place. Our server was nice. The tea was horrible and tasted like instant lemon tea, but he kindly replaced it with a Sprite. Our food was good, but my friend wished there had been some veggies in her Beef & Guinness Pie as there were none. She didn't even finish off the desert, Bread Pudding, saying it wasn't all that great. Overall, don't think we'll go back, especially because of the smell of sewer in the air! read more

Met a friend here for a late night birthday drink and had a lovely visit on the patio. The dogs had to come celebrate too! Staff was very attentive and the drinks and bites were very good. read more

Came out here to listen to band Food and Service was fabulous and everybody dancing and listening to music ..... try it out you'll have a great evening ......and a little noisy but worth it read more

Love their burgers and live music as hard to find places in that area with live music

Our server Abby did a fantastic job. The bbq chicken flat bread was delicious . The drinks were hands down top notch. You guys keep up the great work and see you next Sunday read more

Terrible bar, service sucks, owner is just out right nasty, food is okay, on multiple occasions the owner has completely screwed over the bands they have playing there, 0/10 would not recommend. Wish I could give them 0 stars read more

Very fun atmosphere and great food/drinks! Staff is very friendly. I love when they have live music.

Our overly hyped up server wouldn't calm down the whole time we were there. We took 5 steps in the door and she was in our face immediately wanting drink orders and making suggestions. No menus given, no seats. We paid $20 for 1 Irish Manhattan and 1 unsweet tea. The math doesn't seem right to me. 5 years ago this place was amazing, but I would not recommend going here or stopping by on your way home. Wasn't able to get a manager and no answer when I called. read more

It's a good looking very large pub in the shopping area. We went in for beers and although the service was good it was a bit slow even though the place was not crowded. Beer was tasty and we wanted to eat there but honestly we got tired of waiting. Will have to go back and update at that time E. read more

The drinks tasted like something I would've made in a college fraternity basement - way too strong and sweet. The food had way too much salt and messy presentation. Live performed was too loud and off key. Won't be back. read more

Ordered the flat bread pizza and fajitas here and it was terrible wouldn't recommend we didn't even finish our food paid and left and ate somewhere else go at your own risk. read more

Food is average. Service is average. Management is far below average. Don't waste your time.

Laura Lee is honestly the most amazing bartender ever. She is so kind and has ALWAYS so attentive to the bar's needs. No drink goes un-filled. Not only was this since day one, but every time I've been here. I really enjoy the French onion soup every single time as a side and they make sure to compliment not only my beverage with the entree they recommend, but a main to go with it. Either street tacos or bratwurst... it's always good and she never lets me down. Plus, when she's working the place always looks and smells clean... that means a lot!! read more

They redeemed themselves with the food. The service on the other hand is the pits. Had the olde English pork roast sandwich with aus jus ...delicious. they add fresh mushrooms and sautees onions in the aus jus which added to the sandwich takes it to the next level. Hub had fish and chips and loved it. Said the tarter sauce was the bomb. read more

The Lion & Crown Pub - Fat Tuesday beer crawl - Pubs Near Me - Allen, Texas

For starters we literally love this place, however, today was a bust. We sat down at an outside table. We were there well over a half hour, saw waitress twice who got our drink order (twice) and she never came back. We finally left after that. We had our hungry 18 mo old granddaughter with us too. Not a good scene. So irritated. Obviously short staffed but the staff had total disregard. read more

I'm a disabled veteran and I have a service dog and just popped in for a drink. The manager was dead set on not allowing us in. Will never enter another one of these establishments read more

Excellent service, very nice ambiance. Food was good, portions were less than expected.

We went to see Jett Platt Music. He's always 5 Stars ... there were 22 of us and we had a very nice young waitress. The food was average. The bartender was very rude so I'm not sure we will return. read more

The food was actually OK but the service is weak, no "hi how are you guys" when being waited on just straight to the point of ordering. The servers are mostly all young ladies, wearing baggy sweats, crop tops. To each their own but I wasn't very comfortable with everything. I wish we had left to be honest but my mother in law and son were hungry and we were already there. The tables are dirty, I had beer spilled on my menu and it just reeked. Obviously, more of a bar and if you're looking to have fun with your friends it's a great place but I will personally never be coming back. They definitely need to clean the place up, you can just see the walls are filthy. Dirt, crumbs and grime in the corners of the tables and the fabric on the chairs are just nasty. I wish I had taken photos, just so gross. I've worked in restaurants and I would never be okay with working at an establishment that is okay representing itself like that. read more

Really fun place to grab a beer at Waters Creek. This is a dive bar for sure, but the beer was cold and cheap. Service was great, food was good. Classic English pub if that's what you expect. read more

Stopped in for a drink with a friend & maybe even food but when we had to ask bartender to clean the bar area immediately received a bad vibe she only wiped one area not where I was sitting still crumbs remaining.Mind you we were the only 2 in the bar early afternoon . Decided not to eat just have a drink . Just BF4 we departed another 2 peeps entered . Also had to ask for bar/ counter to be cleaned . What a joke won't be back . Bartender also threw off a bad vibe " don't wanna be here" read more

This place is my favorite neighborhood bar/restaurant to hang out. Always a good time and never disappoints. Service, food, and atmosphere are all always great! Such a fun and nice place. I love it! read more

I stopped by this place around 4:00 pm. It's a bar so it was open seating so l took a seat at the bar. My friend told me the ranch chicken sandwich was really good here but l opted for fish n chip. I had to get my pint of beer to go along with it. The fish and chip wasn't big like many places I've had it but it was nicely battered and the house sauce was really flavorful. I definitely would like to be back when I'm in the areas to try other things like the sandwiches. read more

Wow! The staff is inconvenienced that you are there. The entire establishment was rude. Service was poor. This was my first time going there and will not be recommending. Watters Creek is an amazing area. Best of Luck if this remains open. Seriously I cannot think of a worse experience. read more

Food was good for pub food. Service was slow. Ambiance was fun with music bingo. I'd go again with a work crew but not in any other situation. Beer selection for a pub needed to be more robust. read more
