The Crown at Bray

About

Nestled in the heart of picture-perfect Bray, The Crown combines traditional warmth and welcome with exceptional food and superb service. While it may be small, The Crown boasts an almighty history, dating all the way back to the 16th century. The low-ceilings, exposed oak beams and open fires have withstood a lot in their time including revolutions, flooding and warfare - when the building was used as an army recruitment office - and its colourful history can be pieced together through the variety of artwork which adorn the walls.
