We were staying as an extended family near here and went in one evening. This is just the sort of excellent authentic, unpretentious village pub you don't seem to see so much these days. Landlord was super friendly, recommending beers and chatting about he keeps them. Chatted to friendly locals too. Good atmosphere. We all had food which was exactly as expected: good sized portions, straightforward, tasty. Lots of variety on the menu. Pub is dog friendly too. Please visit if you are in the area. A great British village pub. Thanks

This is straightforward pub food but good quality and very reasonable prices. Drinks are also very reasonable and a lot less than many pubs nowadays. Don’t expect fine dining but just good value food. Pub has nice traditional pub atmosphere well frequented by locals. Several different seating areas means you can be as private as you wish or in amongst other visitors.

Thanks to Helen and Bally for making my 70th birthday party such a success. All the guests commented on what a lovely pub you have and on the quality of the buffet. We were well looked after from start to finish. I can recommend this venue for anyone considering a party or even just popping in for a meal hand cooked by Helen.

Not many reviews and the last one many months ago. Time to correct that. The name Rose & Crown often means that the pub is an old one. This one certainly is: the building is from around 1300. You feel the age, character and good atmosphere the moment you step inside. The fact that landlord Iain radiates friendliness makes you wish that this could be your local. What a shame that we live too far from Hundon. Landlady Helen appeared a bit later and together they're a formidable team. We were occasional visitors but spent a whole evening here to celebrate a wedding. Several locals came in and they all had this laid-back, friendly attitude. Last but not least, not many pubs know how to pull a proper point of Guinness. Iain and his team certainly do! They pour some, let it rest long enough and only then fill up the glass. This is a great pub for a pint, a meal or for a party, whatever the reason.

We visited the rose and crown in hundon while staying nearby for a few days. The pub was lovely and the landlords Ian and Helen were very helpful and friendly. All 8 of us loved the homecooked food so much, we came back the next night for another meal! The prices are extremely reasonable and Helen is a brilliant cook. The pub itself has a really welcoming and warm atmosphere and the music is at a lovely volume. We will definitely be back when we are next in the area!

We (a party of 3) visited this pub on Thursday 5th September and we all chose something different from the Table D'hote lunch menu. The steak and ale pie came with 3 or 4 new potatoes, 2 slender carrot slices and about half a cabbage leaf! The taste was rated as "mediocre" and "where were the vegetables?". When the owner was taxed with this he said that the portion was small (actually, there was a decent-sized slice of the pie, with plenty of gravy) because we were not lunching A La Carte! The same went for the tiny portion of vegetarian lasagne; and here, it needs to be said that, if blind-folded, I would have had trouble figuring out exactly what it was as there was practically no taste at all! The 3rd dish, listed as haddock, appeared to be anything but. At least, the verdict was that IF it was haddock, then it was not fresh.

We called in for a light lunch and pint after a morning's walk in the countryside. This is still very much a 'typical' village pub - not modernised or 'improved' by a big brewer, and this is to be welcomed. It has a cosy and homely feel. We were influenced in choosing to try it because the pub is listed in the current edition of the CAMRA Good Beer Guide and we were not disappointed. Four hand pulled real ales were offered, two of which were completely new to us. The pints were in excellent condition and we enjoyed the two tastes new to us. There was a respectable choice of light lunches with baguettes with a wide variety of fillings and baked potatoes with a wide variety of toppings. Prices are very reasonable. Our welcome and service was warm, friendly and efficient. The only slight let down was that when we called a few days in advance the telephone went to an answer phone and our call was not returned. Our e-mail never was answered. This alone almost lost them our business as we were trying to confirm they would be open. Being difficult to contact doesn't seem to make good business sense. Nevertheless our visit and lunch was enjoyable and we are very likely to return.

We made a particular trip to this pub which we have used before (and it was VG) on Wednesday 1st August and it was SHUT with no notice of explanation or anything. So went to the Plough, and did well.

For the second time in 20 month's the Rose and Crown has played host to my parents' farewell 'celebration' of life. Lovely hosts, delicious spread, lovely comfortable pub with attractive outside areas. Thankyou so very much Elaine x

Friendly, family run free-house. Good pub food and excellent real ale. Good size car park and beer garden. Perfect for a summer afternoon outside or equally a winter night in by the woodburner. Dog and child friendly. A highly recommended traditional village pub.

Popped in for one drink, ended up staying for four and had a meal too. Traditional country village pub that's popular with the locals. Children and dogs allowed. The landlord was very friendly and chatted to my husband over their shared love of planes. Locals using the pub were also very friendly and welcoming. Beer was very good. Great value home cooked food. Both my husband and I had the double cheeseburger & chips which was £5.95. Couldn't fault the food, you get plenty, it was nice and hot and very tasty. Will definitely be visiting again as people were so friendly.

Un antiguo pub de país con cena en el bar principal. Menú es bastante amplia pero sencillo y nada pretencioso. He tenido un número de comidas allí y se lo recomiendo para disfrutar de una buena comida a precios asequibles y un excelente servicio amable. Pescado y patatas fritas en viernes especialmente recomendado, pero reserva primero. Ahora una casa gratis, un número de buenas cervezas disponibles.

The Landlord and his wife offer a great warm welcome. The Real ale is exceptionally well kept and the food is traditional pub grub, very well cooked and very reasonably priced. Well worth a visit when in the area.

We were recommended this pub for its good food. On our first visit, for our wedding anniversary, we were not disappointed. Sunday Lunch was one choice, roast pork, but there were choices for starters and puddings. The food was nicely served on hot plates and there was quite enough to satisfy us both. Local residents also greeted us and talked to us about various local matters which was quite nice and welcoming. The pub is quite old and the owners are slowly redecorating it. The cost of the meal was not particularly high and lower than many other local pubs and restaurants. Although there was no choice of main course, that might be a factor in keeping costs down. Additionally, food is not served on a Monday or Tuesday. The pub is family run and both cooking and serving involve all family members. For good food, well cooked and served without any fuss or bother, this is not a bad place to visit.

Mean Spirited - The first experience of taking along a birthday cake for a close friends 60th birthday to be told we can light it but you can’t eat it here!!! Should point out that the food we did eat was great, but this won’t be our venue of choice for future celebrations.. shame.

Decided to walk to the nursery from Stanton, and what a lovely day was made out of it! We stopped at the cafe to have lunch, and the food was lovely. Nothing fancy, but was warming and fueling after our walk. The staff were lovely, and the atmosphere was relaxed and welcoming. We were able to do some crocheting, and ended up staying until close! Would definitely like to come back again!
