In the completely renovated space located on Sansom Street between 15th and 16th streets, Harp & Crown will bring together old-world touches of charm and luxury with modern sensibility and functionality. Its glass-façade, 24-foot ceilings, and four chandeliers on the ground floor are glamorous pieces that will be balanced with funky vintage wallpaper and leather club chairs, millwork and natural tones throughout the ground floor. The result is a comfortably refined space that helps to highlight seasonal ingredients and global cuisines. Guests may enjoy the delicate yet complex flavors of his new- American dishes amongst the space including a 32-seat bar. Delving further into the unused space within the building itself, guests will find a cocktail bar and two-lane, reservations-only bowling alley beneath the main room where cocktails, pizza and charcuterie will be served.

Made a Saturday night reservation for a birthday celebration and was seated right on time. Wait staff was friendly and efficient-orders taken and delivered in a timely manner, neither rushed nor waiting. Food was excellent. There was not one dish from toasts and small plates to entrees that wasn't truly delicious. The scallops were outstanding. Leave room for the cookie and milk dessert. No really. Not kidding. There were only two issues I had; light and noise. We were seated at a round table and I could not hear the person opposite me speaking including our waitress. The table was also very dark. These eyes may be over 40, but the youngin's had to use the flashlight on their phones to read the menu as well. The food was good, but, given the lack of lumens, some of it wasn't easily identifiable. A few candles would have gone a long way. Not a deal breaker though and I would definitely go back.

Very efficient and professional waitstaff service. Delicious cocktails from the bar, but surprisingly uninspired dishes coming from the kitchen. Two-tops along the edge have an awkward side-by-side seating configuration. Best for drinks.

Buffet was excellent as always however my drink came out extremely late- it looked like it went to the wrong table first. By the time the drink came out I was already almost finished eating

Given the COVID -19 virus- feedback/ suggestion was given to brown-haired manager to provide paper towel in the bathroom and to put a sign on the door leaving the bathroom that states “use paper towel to open the door “, the suggestion was hardly acknowledged. The food and service was very good but with no sneeze guards over the food and a lack of concern for public safety I may think twice about returning.

We had a terrible experience. I’ve been before and it was perfect. The management and servers were incredibly rude. We were inconveniencing the server by our presence. We had asked to be near another table and made the request, and they couldn’t accommodate even though we’d put the request in with the rude person on the phone earlier in the day. That’s ok they could t accommodate but the fact that they were consistently rude in our service was terrible. One of our guests has a life threatening gluten allergy, and they could NOT have cared less. The manager said he doesn’t know because he floats from restaurants to restaurant. Literally NO ONE could come and give us info on what is gluten free. Unacceptable in this day in age. So sad.

I was disappointed with Harp & Crown after reading the reviews and looking at the menu. Mostly, it had to do with them not having a table for us despite our reservation. First we were told to hang out at the bar while the people at our table paid the check. This was impossible since the bar was overflowing with people. After 10 minutes, the hostess said the table seemed to be stuck and we could go down to the "speakeasy" (basement) instead if we wished. Since there was no choice and we had concert plans we decided to go downstairs. It was dark, loud and cold and the tables were quite small for dinner. The servers were nice but they were largely busy cleaning up after a private party that had been there for happy hour so it was a little hit and miss. The table was so small and the food came out all at once so they literally stacked the food on top of each other which made it impossible to really enjoy or see what we were eating. The starters (hamachi and octopus) were the highlight because the pizza was lukewarm and overly cheesy. The cauliflower was good but cold. The cocktails were very lackluster without any of the flavor the descriptions on the menu promised. All in all, we were disappointed. I would return if I could count on a real table, get the food to the table while warm and if they would just turn up the lights a bit!
