Just off the main thoroughfare of Waltham Abbey, the Crown is an old pub hidden away on a small cobbled square. You can imagine that in times gone by it nestled peacefully in this the quaint countryside village setting. Of course, that was until a ticky-tack development of houses was plonked next door sometime in the 1980s. Still, the Crown is a pretty place and inside has a fairly jolly, friendly atmosphere, which happily extended as far as us non-regulars. You can get a good pint of well-kept McMullen's ale and sit in the nicely tended garden. Waltham Abbey looks like the kind of place to have lots of outstanding pubs, so considering it doesn't, this is one of the better places to drink in the area.

How to find the The Crown pub

Waltham Abbey is best reached via Waltham Cross as it doesn't have a rail station. Thus you have to get to Waltham Cross first, either by catching the train, the 217 from Turnpike Lane tube, or the 279 from Seven Sisters. At the bus terminal, there are numerous buses which go to the Abbey. Additionally, the 250 goes direct from Loughton tube station (central line). www.arriva.co.uk/shiresandessex is a useful site.
