Hart And Crown Tavern

What a beautiful spot! The Hart and Crown Tavern has a wonderfully charming and rustic feel right in the heart of Maddison. We loved the decorating and the overall vibe of the place. We were seated right away, as it was very empty when we arrived. The service started out great but unfortunately got slower and slower as our meal went on, which was a bit of a letdown. For starters, we ordered the bread and the pork belly, and they were both fantastic. The real star was the BBQ chickpeas that came with the pork belly—what a pleasant surprise! For our mains, we had the wild boar carbonara and the fish and chips. Both were just okay and could have used a bit more flavor. A small note: the "chips" are seasoned potato wedges, not traditional fries. They were good, just not what we were expectin

Excellent dinner as their Fish & Chips may very well be the best I have ever had. From Sydney to San Francisco to New York, the Hart & Crown Tavern is a MUST STOP. The Haddock or Pollack was perfect, thick, moist, and with a splash of Vinegar and Lemon sang while I ate the Fish & Chip dish. My strawberry red leaf salad was delicious too. The restaurant is like a pub in Ireland. The inside feels so inviting and harmonious with the tavern feel. Madison ought to be very proud of this establishment. Go Dawgs!

We venture to Madison about once a year and always try to stop in here for a relaxing drink. I just love the homey/upscale pub atmosphere and they make an excellent half & half (black and tan). And the staff are always friendly and welcoming. Last visit, it was raining like crazy so we decided to stay for dinner. Went with the recommended special, Salmon served with a Bulgar Risotto which was out of this world. Can't wait to go back.

Delicious food! Didnt get a picture but also had the gouda mac n cheese and Brussel sprouts. Im pretty picky about my Brussels but they were sooo good here! Araceli was a fantastic server!

The worst service & management I’ve experienced in ages. We arrived at 3:30 and the manager sneered at us rather than greeted when we said we didn’t have a reservation & said that if we found a seat at the bar we could eat. Great! Two seats at the bar were open. The bartender said that food was paused until 4pm but we could have drinks. No problem. We ordered a round and dutifully waited. Then we heard from another couple at the bar that food was only going to be available at the bar at 5pm (why didn’t the bartender tell us? Who knows because although there are only 6 stools at the bar, she refused to make eye contact for us to even order another round). After closing out with the first bartender at 4pm and again indicating that we wanted a food menu as soon as it was ready and another rou
