One of the very best Sunday lunches I have experienced. Served piping hot and with a smile from our server. Beef was generous and left pink in the middle, great Yorkshires crisp on the out side but soft and tasty in the middle. Fantastic choice of vegetables roasted parsnips, red cabbage, cauliflower in white sauce and a side bowl of cabbage, broccoli and green beans. Roast potatoes were perfect for us crisp on the outside and soft on the inside. Thick, tasty gravy and lots of it. Just a great and memorable lunch. Good selection of wine by the glass and beers. Staff are all smiles, efficient and charming. Instead of the beef my wife tried the vegetarian option and declared great alternative!

It was our first time visiting the rose and crown and we weren't disappointed. I was the first to arrive with my daughter, and we had such a warm and friendly greeting. Instantly felt very welcome. The menu has all the pub classics and best of all, which actually was the reason for us attending, they are SO inclusive for allergies/intolerances. My brother can't have wheat, he wanted to have the battered fish if possible and they were able to accommodate which is very rare with such a dish. Instead of giving a different option entirely which many places do, they have the resources to keep the dish the same, just altered for the intolerance (using gluten free flour). All our food was delicious and tasted very fresh. As previously mentioned, service was also so friendly and great. Very child friendly also. We will definitely be returning and recommending to friends and family.

So many good things to say. I had to write this immediately after dinner as I was so impressed. The food was fabulous and the ladies who served us even more fabulous. Everyone in this gem of a pub was lovely and so friendly. We had three courses each which is unheard of for me. We had three waitresses and they were all gorgeous. Keep up the wonderful ambience girls. We were only here on our way to Le Shuttle, but we will come every time now!

The pub is beautiful and the patrons are friendly. The views from the garden are lovely. We had booked an event here and the staff were well organised, attentive, super friendly and nothing was too much trouble. Special thanks to Dermot, Kim and Debbie who made our event extra special and took care of us from the moment we walked in the door to the moment we left. The food portions were generous and presented wonderfully. A true gem of a place, highly recommended!

Another great meal and top quality beer and wine .we really enjoyed the atmosphere not much more to say really parking is easy and the garden is a nice setting with easy access for wheelchairs. Real ale to non -alcohol beers and Guinness? Which is very good. Fully recommend and not far from local attractions and great walks .

Just want you want from a pub that’s a favourite with the locals - great bar staff, delicious food and a good pint. Visiting the area for the weekend, it was recommended by our accommodation hosts and it lived up to every expectation. In fact we were so impressed, we went back for a second evening because the menu was so good, we wanted to try more! Even when we were late for our booking we were welcomed in, seated, chef managed to fit us in and we savoured a second delicious meal. It was lovely to slip into such a warm atmosphere, dogs are welcome and I only wish I lived down the road instead of 100-odd miles away

They had the best British pies I ever had, very generous and delicious food, lovely and friendly staff, and a wonderful setting. What more can you hope for after a days walk and bike in the country?

Lovely old pub with friendly atmosphere and staff. Great pub grub we enjoyed the calves liver perfectly cooked and served with rich gravy, buttery mash and fresh green beans. Puds are original and very large , the apple crumble was home made, sweet and crunchy topping. Came with proper custard. There is a very well balanced and interesting wine list, all reasonably priced by todays wine costs, both by glass and bottle. We will be returning very soon.

Lunch for 7 family and friends after shooting clay pigeons for the boys and spa at woodside for the girls. As usual enjoyed a warm welcome and a fabulous meal. The curried vegetable soup hit the spot on a cold day. Another of the party had the scotch egg. He's usually generous and offers a taste, I noted he was quiet during the starters and that he'd scraped his plate clean !! Tempora prawns were delicious. We followed up with burgers, again delicious, fish pie creamy heartening perfectly seasoned and fish and chips, absolutley scrumptious. Such generous portions be sure to wear your elasticated trousers. Only one of the party had pudding ( too full) and on Debs recommendation went for the rhubarb cheesecake..... divine!!!!! Thanks to all the staff that always make our experience brilliant.

There was a good choice of drinks (including different varieties of non-alcoholic beers) and an equally good choice on the menu (we all settled for gammon with bubble and squeak and fried eggs, which I can certainly recommend). The portion sizes were ample and very good value for money. An excellent lunch and would recommend.

We had a superb meal on Saturday night as always. We both had creamy garlic mushrooms to start. This actually isn’t on the summer menus as it’s more of a winter dish but because chef knows how much we enjoy them, he makes them for us especially! I had fish pie for my main and my partner had the chicken burger, both delicious. The chocolate brownie pudding was great as well. 5* food, wonderful friendly service - what more could you ask for!?

What an absolute gem of a pub! We were camping in the area, and my son and I and our dog had been walking nearby. We were absolutely soaked through and looking for some food and warmth. I asked the lady behind the bar if they were dog friendly, and she explained where we could sit. The welcome from the very beginning was warm and friendly. The food was outstanding and very reasonably priced. Kim, the lady behind the bar, was fantastic and looked after us so well! Kim even offered to tumble dry our wet clothes and offered us a lift to our campsite. Every village needs a local this good! Thank you so much for your hospitality, Diane and Jacob x

Home cooked and freshly prepared food. We booked here for an early dinner on Sunday. The food was excellent. My wife had the mince and onion pie and I had the burger. The flavour of the burger was beautiful and not dry. The pie was a proper shortcrust pastry pie not a stew with a pasty lid cokes separately as in other establishments. We both had starters too. I had the cheeseboard; 3 cheeses with plenty biscuits etc. I couldn’t finish it and took the cheddar home. They don’t have a children’s menu but will do a smaller portion of the main menu.

As soon as you walk through the door the staff are polite and welcoming. Looking at a below review regarding the landlord, we too are regulars and have never received anything other a warm welcome and excellent service from all. Now let's get down to the food, one word... exceptional, the presentation, portions and above all the taste all 10/10 the chef certainly knows his stuff. We had a party of 6 and there was not one grumble (certainly not from our stomachs) as everything was perfect. Would definitely recommend the steak or any specials they have on I had venison steak (a special) and every bite was mouth watering. Needless to say we'll be back very soon. Thank you Dermot, Lisa, Kim and all the staff for such a fantastic evening.

We went here for a family roast dinner on Sunday. The service was so good and the food was exceptional, the team there have done an amazing job with the new settings for COVID19 and everything was so clean. We would most certainly visit again.

Been cycling to different pubs for lunch with my daughter. This was the best yet. I had a Duck and Orange salad (cous cous - etc all the works) it was divine. My daughter went for the burger and that too was delicious. Shared a raspberry cheesecake and waddled off happy and full. Was all set out safe, one way, well screened, hand gels everywhere it was just spot on. Cheerful and friendly.

So pleased to have found this pub today!! We are camping nearby and I saw the good reviews for here so thought we would drive out to it for drinks. Immediately we knew it was a real gem of a pub... beautifully presented and the CLEANEST we have ever been in! A well thought out system in place for COVID (the best we have seen in any pub since pubs opened again), and it’s explained in a friendly and welcoming way. The people who run this pub have everything just right! Great play area, simple but all 4 kids were fully entertained (aged between 6 and 11), generous child sized portions of the standard menu and ice lollies/ice creams offered for their dessert. We were so relaxed that we had to order lots of food! Although the specials were tempting, (the John Dory sounded superb) we would recommend the ploughman’s and the burgers from the main menu - off the scale delicious and such good value for money - even without the ‘eat out’ scheme we felt it was very reasonably priced for such lovely food. Thanks Rose and Crown team for being the highlight of our little camping trip!

My husband and I went to the Rose & Crown last night , we were made very welcome and it was very organised with its one way system etc ! Unfortunately our meal wasn’t the best , my husband ordered the salmon and I wish I’d taken a photo of the minuscule portion !! He had one thin slice of Salmon accompanied by a small stack of crushed potatoes, a couple of little dots of salsa , some vegetables would of been nice and at £14.95 !!! I’m just glad we tried this when it was the Eat out offer and only paid half that

I love going to the Rose and Crown not just for a good beer and some lovely food, but for the brilliant service I always get. The live music events they do are great fun too! Also they’ve done a fab job with social distancing and COVID measures, you always feel safe!

Just enjoyed a fabulous lunch, beautifully cooked moules marinaire, followed by a cracking ploughmans with some of the best cheese i've had. The family had courgette flower (delicious) to start then fish and chips and roast beef. Absolutely lovely, and the changes to comply with covid were very reassuring. One way system lots of outside tables and along with the Mundy Bois Militia HQ ( very funny Dermot) hand sanitiser and saw lots of cleaning going on. the extra garden space at the front looked so inviting.This was a cracking afternoon following lock down and we'll be back very soon. Thank you x

Called into the Rose & Crown when overnighting locally, prior to crossing the Channel tunnel. We arrived on a Sunday evening and there was an inviting open log fire in the dog friendly bar. We received a very warm and polite welcome from the bar staff. We opted from the Sunday roast which is also on the Sunday evening menu and it was delicious. The bar had 3 real ales on tap for real ale drinkers and a good selection of lagers and beers.Don't miss the Rose and Crown fin the area, you won't be disappointed

Previously visited the Tearooms when they were located outside the front of Perry Court. The food was excellent and cheese, chutney sandwiches were huge and fresh. Has to be said for the new cafe the staff are great - however the new sandwiches are appalling. Cheap supermarket, sliced bread and a smattering of grated cheese for ££. Phenomenally expensive. A huge disappointment and wouldn't return.

We had a very good meal at The George at Molash; we were welcomed on arrival and shown to our table, the service was very efficient and the waitresses were professional but also friendly. They looked after us superbly. We chose our meals and these took a little time to come out but we were not worried about this as we were chatting and food was cooked freshly to order. Other tables were informed about a wait for some foods as they were cooked freshly to order. This didn’t affect us too much as we ate quite early - table was booked for 6.30pm. The pub was very clean and tidy. The portions were good - for both dinner and we had a dessert. We finished the evening with herbal teas and were shown a selection to choose from. Overall we had a very nice evening at The George, and had good food, service and atmosphere.

Went there expecting to get food and decent beer. NO Food. Looks like pub is up for sale with little interest. Beer was OK, but pub noisy due to football. Definitely one to avoid. Went to Eureka for a nice curry instead,
