“We want people to feel comfortable coming in and having a couple glasses of wine.” Continues Mr. Desporte. “When they walk in they’re going to think it’s very beautiful and we want to treat people who are shopping all through the day, and at night we’ll have an ambiance. Sometimes we’ll have special music, and some nights we’ll have sushi or different kinds of things.”
At The Crown, the drinks are as much a part of the experience as the setting. The bar boasts a menu of expertly crafted cocktails, each made the traditional way with the finest ingredients. From timeless classics like the Old Fashioned to innovative concoctions, there’s something to delight every palate. For wine enthusiasts, The Crown features a thoughtfully curated selection of wines ensuring there’s always the perfect pour to complement your evening.
“We want it to be a local feel,” Says Haley Bush, manager. “So when people come in here that are from out of the city or state they feel like they’re getting a piece of the coast here, a true experience.”
While The Crown embraces its high-end identity, it remains rooted in the welcoming spirit of the Gulf Coast. This is a place where conversations can flow as smoothly as the drinks, and where laughter and connection fill the air. It’s not just a bar, it’s a gathering space for the community. Whether you’re winding down after a long day of work or celebrating a special occasion, The Crown offers an experience that’s both intimate and unforgettable.
“It’s going to be like no other experience in Ocean Springs when you walk in.” Says Markham Moore, co-owner. “I think it’s not going to look like anything they’re used to.”
As The Crown opens its doors, it welcomes all of Ocean Springs. This is more than just another bar; it’s a celebration of craftsmanship, community, and the coastal lifestyle. Whether you’re a local or a visitor, The Crown invites you to raise a glass and be part of something truly special.
Cheers to comfort, class, and the timeless art of a well-made drink.
