Sunday Roast is a British tradition and you can find it at many of the pubs around town. We figured so many pubs would offer it, but we didn't realize how in demand it was. We went to 3 other pubs and were turned away for a variety of reasons before a success attempt at Sunday Roast at The Three Crowns. Staff was friendly and welcoming. There was a comfortable amount of space and spacing between the tables. The bathrooms, located downstairs, were well maintained and clean. My boyfriend and I shared The Rump of Beef (£22.50) Sunday Roast and it was INCREDIBLE. Wow if I lived here I might try to eat a Sunday roast every weekend. Our rump of beef came with roasted potatoes, carrots, greens, pickled red cabbage, a huge Yorkshire pudding and gravy on the side. Wow! A Magnificent meal that I am still reminiscing of. Every component of the meal was well executed and it tasted even better as a whole. My only complaint if I needed to make a complaint is how they had really dull knifes and it was hard to cut into the rump of beef. Highly recommended for the Sunday Roast meal! Until next time! read more

great food and service. Had vegetarian Sunday roast and it was delicious!

Great Guinness pour at this local pub. That is if you're looking for a proper, icy-cold, perfectly frothy pint of Guinness.

Cool pub where we spent a few good hours on a new year's eve a few years back. Friendly staff, good drinks and great music.

This was quite a surprise popping up on the corner over here in Shoreditch! After months of construction, it just appeared like water in the dessert. Three Crowns! Revitalized. Totally updated from top to bottom. Three cheers! I hear it used to be quite rough. Five of us attended dinner here on their first week open. Will give the benefit of the doubt that they're finding their feet, as it seems promising. Standouts: Terrine & cornichons "Plate of Tomatoes" - boring name, lovely dish. Very fresh. Wine. When is it not, yes? Service was quite good. Buzzing ambience. In the times since that I've walked past, it is quite literally always busy. On the warmer evenings, folks spill out onto the sidewalks and it's quite festive as the side street here (Brunswick) isn't very busy. Their chalkboard out front leads me to believe they are open for breakfast and lunch as well, so will definitely pop back in to see if the menu's gotten a bit more steady. Definitely an improvement and a nice option in the area for a few drinks and snacks. read more

Walked past this pub the other day and it looked promising. Booked for Sunday lunch and was not disappointed - very good food, excellent slow cooked lamb with all the trimmings. Shout out for Jade, who was an excellent host, serving drinks and food to us and with proper care and attention. She has a lovely manner too. A real find - we will return! read more

Shoreditch, as a nightlife destination, has a surprising shortage of nice pubs. The area around the Old St roundabout is particularly bad, and so it was great to see the Three Crowns reopen, after a period where it was looking in danger of being converted into flats or offices. The pub itself has been renovated well, and has a great selection of beer, both traditional cask ales and a few great craft beers from the keg. The area at the back is a restaurant, and the quality of the food is good, without being overly expensive. I've eaten there once, and opted for the featherblade of beef, which was slow cooked and fell apart nicely. I tried some of my friend's duck hash, which was also pretty good. I'll definitely be back to try some of the other dishes. read more

This was another great find in the quest for a good work lunch spot! This little gastro pub looks like your average London boozer (allbeit with a slightly more welcoming and airy feel than some) but the menu was fantastic. It was like being in a very expensive and upmarket pub but with their two course deals (two for £15) it certainly didn't have that price tag! The food can be described as perhaps slightly on the pretentious side for a pub (Goat herders pie anyone?) but it was delicious and very well cooked. The ingredients felt fresh and well cooked and it was just a very enjoyable meal! Something a bit different from the usual! read more

Great for breakfast and many other things!! Fab little place and fortunate for me it's just opposite work!! Woop woop!! Staff is friendly and chatty, never a long wait! This place is generally a great place to hang out with friends and have a good time!! read more

Lunch times have never been so indulgent! The 3 Crowns makes no bones about its commitment to fresh ingredients, daily changing menues and talented Chefs. Oh, yes and they serve drinks too. But no, for me, the food is the main star here. With a fantastic supporting cast of beer, wine, cocktails, atmosphere and canny staff, it commands your attention. Enter the matinee performance of their incredible set lunch. £15 for two courses and £18 for three courses is criminal. Why? Because its not the dodgy cuts of meat, loads of veg and leftovers from the night before. It has exactly the same attention to detail that debuts in the evening performance. Dishes like pigeon, slow cooked mutton (8 hours dude), home made chicken liver and much more feature on this little daytime treat! During my week day visit, I had a starter of grilled calcots with pepper sauce and hazelnuts. Now I have had this in its natural habitat, Barcelona, with authentic Catalonians, so I was intrigued. Tick the yes box please. It was good. For main, there was the slow cooked mutton, tender, with lentils, fennel and mint partnered with a side of steamed cabbage with anchovy and chilli. Simply because of how amazing the deal was, I had to be a greedy guts and have the chocolate and walnut brownie with fudge sauce and ice cream - cue losening your belt. The 3 Crowns near Old Street station is a winner all day, but this deal cannot be beat. I dare you to find me another as good. read more

The fish is disgusting. Be careful what you order. Over priced and not good. The one star would be for the service. Very nice. But I will never forget the TERRIBLE taste of this fish. read more

The place itself is very nice, and you can see the chefs at work which, in my opinion, is great. Th etables are a bit too close together so feels quite crowded and where I sat, people were always brushing past, annoying to say the least. I came here for Sunday Lunch and had 3 courses, a Clam and Leek Chowder, Roast Beef dinner and the Choc Brownie dessert. I have to say that the food was almost amazing, unfortunately, and this may have just been a one-off, the beef was so stringy, it was hard to cut through some parts to the point of my hands were getting tired, and had to chew large bits which were really hard to chew so had to swallow whole bits. There were some tender pieces, Also,m the green accompanying the meal were just Cabbage (or something similar), not really what I call greens. It was a real shame because the rest of the food was very tasty and plenty of it. I will be back, just to prove myself wrong and hopefully submit a review of my review. read more

Amazing food, amazing atmosphere. The staff is friendly and the service fast. The food is tasty and particular. Sometimes it is a bit hard to understand what's in the dishes only reading the menu so it's a place where you can go plenty of times and always eat something different. Definitely recommended. read more

Great pub. Tons of beers on tap and really good food. I was happily surprised! Went during the week for some brews and dinner and had a great time. The pub is much larger than it appears on the outside and super cozy. I ordered the vegan mushroom strogonoff (was hesitant at first) but it was AMAZING. So delicious and washed down with some great IPAs. Casual scene but really enjoyed it. read more

All I can say is.. do not get the grouse!!! I am rarely unable to eat a dish I order, but this Grouse was so disgusting I couldn't even try. I simply pushed the plate away and nibbled on the side dishes. I have to say that the appetizers were quite good and my friend's meal looked normal (nothing special).. but that grouse.. oh god... GROSS GROUSE! It tasted like old leather?? read more

Where do you go when you'd like to watch the Euro 2008 final, but you only thought to head out and look for a venue 10 minutes before the match starts and you'd like to sit down? Well, this is the spot for you! We wandered in and found chairs available a mere minute or two before game time. They served us a couple of pints of bitter and then decided that something was funny with those taps, so suddenly made more bitter unavailable. Made us worry our pints were a bit off, but they tasted alright to us. There are several pool tables downstairs, though football was the only reason everyone was in the pub when I was there. If you'd like an uncrowded pub, then this is probably for you. I don't think that they serve meals, though they do have quite the selection of crisps and nuts. read more

Had dinner here - quail for appetizer and then steak. Everything was delicious and great service. Definitely recommend!

The best British and European restaurant I have tried in London.

Good, but not a traditional English pub. Mix of Mediterranean and British, with some French. Menu could have a better layout, not a large selection. read more

Nice buzzy atmosphere and great comfy leather seats in the dining area. We had a nice cocktail in the bar area first and then were seated in the adjoining restaurant where the open kitchen overlooks. The food was really rather good I had onglet which is a type of steak cooked rare and served with tomato chutney and hand-cut chips, my friend had cod potatoes and aioli which was also very good. We shared a dessert of meringue with hazelnuts and cream, I really wish I knew how they get them so crunch on the outside and soft and gooey on the inside! our waiter was full of jovial charm and helped us choose (a not so pricy) bottle of wine which we also enjoyed. We shall return! read more

Just been for lunch today with 5 colleagues. The food was excellent. The portions were quite large and all dishes were very tasty. We opted for the lunch menu which is 2 courses for £15 or 3 courses for £18 which given the location and the standard of food is excellent. The restaurant has a nice atmospher and the waiting staff were very friendly and knowledgeable. My only slight criticism was that the menu is very meat heavy and there isnt much option on the lunch menu for veggies. That said, the veggie option of polenta with asparagus was delicious. I will definitely be back again soon! read more

Absolutely inedible. Everything we got we hated. Starting from bland squash soup, have you ever heard of salt ? The Hungarian paprika sausage. Simple enough dish. Nice presentation. Completely dry and unpleasant flavor. One bite is all I could do. The mash potatoes were also dry. I didn't think it was possible to mess this up. The only thing that was not bad on this plate was the pickled red cabbage. Which was just ok. Moving on to our other entrée. The smoked fish. Wow. We're you trying to make this repulsive? The smell was unbearable. Once we got over the smell and managed to chew it, we agreed on how terrible it was. I've never tasted cat food, but if I had that's what I imagine the flavor would be. We then decided to quickly ask for the check. We left still hungry. Very angry on how over priced the food was for the quality offered. Service was good but I will never set a foot on this place again. Extremely disappointed. read more

surprised yes it was a one bar pub last time i was in there,pleasant staff who warned me the real ale was warm.food looked good,and ale was ok,and prices were ok.will visit again for sure. read more

Consistently delicious. A definite the 'parents visiting' dinner go to. Always seem to have a nice scrumpy cider on tap and good red wines (though I'm no connoisseur!) Though the menu is ever changing, if they have a pie, I'd highly recommend you plug for that! read more

Had an excellent dinner here while in London. I enjoyed the polenta and squash while my companion the beef pie. We shared a dessert of lemon and berry compote. All was of very high quality and presentation impeccable. Overall delicious! I would recommend this gastro pub ! read more
