Wonderful Venue!

We had our ceremony and reception in the patio and garden and we couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out! We chose this venue because it was near the beach and provided nearly everything we needed: service, tables/utensils/chairs, food and drinks. We had an intimate wedding with 48 guests and the Five Crowns team provided amazing service throughout the night. The events manager, Alison, was so helpful with the entire process and offered us one of the unreserved rooms upstairs to get ready and store some of our belongings which was a HUGE help! Everyone enjoyed the prime rib, chicken, and salmon. We had 1 vegan guest and she LOVED what she was served. We signed up for the Lawry’s VIP to use for our wedding and we earned enough points to go on a handful of dates at any Lawry’s Restaurant! Alison was so incredible to work with and helped guide us throughout the entire planning process. Highly recommend!

Perfect Wedding Venue

Five Crowns was the perfect venue for our wedding. From the beginning the coordination with Carly was very smooth as she was very responsive and very helpful. Our wedding was truly perfect from the delicious food to the customer service of the staff. Their cocktails were also really good. Our guests were all very happy and they have been talking about our wedding. Carly also has recommended wonderful vendors from the DJ, the florist, and the photographer. My wife and I highly recommend this venue. Our family would like to go to Five Crowns again to eat the prime rib.

Amazing Wedding Venue

We had our wedding at Five Crowns and it was an amazing experience. If you’re looking for a venue consider this one and take a tour! The staff was raved about by our guests, the process of planning went smoothly, communication was amazing the entire time, food was delicious. Our day ended up being a rainy one up until guests arrived and even though we only booked the outdoor area they were so accommodating and flexible. Our guests were out of the rain and they allowed us to use a space we didn’t even rent out. We were so fortunate. I couldn’t have asked for more from a vendor. If I could do it again, I would choose this location all over again. I’m so happy with our choice to host our event at Five Crowns. It’s a gem. Email them; you won’t regret getting in contact with Alison.
Location: Amazing! We took pictures down by the ocean.
Parking: Valet and handicap friendly for guests.
Staff: Professional and on top of it.

Amazing Wedding Venue!

From start to finish Five Crowns impressed. We had our wedding and reception in the Greenhouse and patio areas for 45 guests and it was the perfect location. The food was amazing(as always), the service was impeccable and the drink/bar options were extensive. We are so happy we chose the Five Crowns for our wedding and would gladly recommend it to any other couple looking for a venue. The pricing is extremely competitive as well.

Thank you Alison!

Beautiful day!


We recently celebrated our wedding at Five Crowns, and it was truly a dream come true. From the moment we arrived, the ambiance of the venue captivated us. The charming British pub feel combined with elegant decor created a perfect setting for our special day.

The staff at Five Crowns were exceptional. They were attentive, friendly, and went above and beyond to ensure everything ran smoothly. Everything was organized and they were always available to address any concerns, making the planning process stress-free with the help of Ms. Alison Robbins she is amazing!

The food was a highlight of the event. We received countless compliments from our guests about the delicious menu. The presentation was stunning, and every dish was prepared to perfection. The signature cocktails were a lovely touch that everyone enjoyed.

The outdoor garden area was a beautiful backdrop for our ceremony. The lush greenery and fairy lights created a romantic atmosphere that we’ll cherish forever. Transitioning to the indoor space for the reception felt seamless, and the layout allowed for great flow throughout the night.

Overall, our wedding at Five Crowns exceeded our expectations. We highly recommend this venue for anyone looking for a charming and memorable place to celebrate their special day. Thank you to the entire team for making our wedding so magical.

Everything was Perfect!

We booked the upstairs room for our wedding and it was perfect for our small wedding of 25 guests. The service was amazing, the food was so good. We were looking for quality food first which led us to Five Crowns in the first place and it did not disappoint.

Thw whole experience was wonderful and I would HIGHLY recommend this restaurant for smaller wedding.

I have been working with Five Crowns now for 6 years and I am always pleased to see such happy brides!. Margo works with the bride and groom from day one to the final day. She gives them her all. The gardens are gorgeous. The Chef is gifted. The buffets are beautiful. I have also had the opportunity to provide flowers for many different parties there. It is a great local intimate hideaway. LOVELY!

We had the opportunity to perform for a wedding at this beautiful venue. It's a wonderful location and lovely venue that can accommodate small intimate weddings or moderate groups. I would have to say this has been one of our favorite venues to perform at thus far. We would be honored and delighted to return to this venue here in the near future.
