Rose & Crown in Harborough - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Lovely pub in a great location. Little bit on the pricey side for a country pub but the food is definitely not your run of the mill pub grub. Crab a particular favourite

Wow what a gem. Claire, Jamie and Natasha gave us such a warm welcome. Beautiful surroundings and atmosphere. We had a fish and fizz meal that was divine. Cooked to perfection by Rob the chef. I had two courses my husband three. The sea trout with a beetroot risotto worked so beautifully together. I tried my husbands lobster first taste of lobster for me delicious. We heard other tables saying how delicious their meal was. Well looked after by everyone Natasha was attentive and friendly. We will be back.

I stayed for 2 nights at the Rose & Crown, Tilton, accommodation and ate in the pub restaurant both nights. Clare and Jamie offer a welcoming, comfortable and excellent experience, with first class restaurant food by chef Rob, of MasterChef distinction. All highly recommended

One of the best pubs I've been for a long time

We had a fantastic Sunday roast, the staff were really friendly and welcoming. There's a great play park next to the carpark that kept the kids happy and they were very welcoming to the dogs.

Excellent local pub with good service and good food - recommended

Very friendly pub which is owner managed. Great service. Top chef with superb quality of varied food that matches the high standards of the interior. Would highly recommend as a pub on the up.

We had a fabulous night with friends, we all had 3 courses and lots of flowing wine, the food was delicious and presented beautifully. The staff were wonderful and nothing was to much trouble for them. We cant wait to go back again!

Jamie and Claire make you feel so welcome. The service is fantastic. The food is superb. The decor is fabulous. What an incredible pub. Will definitely be coming back.

Lovely pub with friendly staff, food was good but a little too expensive for us

A birthday lunch with family. Lots of fun and great food.

Food and restaurant service and bar service amazing 👏 will be returning soon

I booked a weekend away in the village for my partner as a birthday surprise and he revealed to me soon after that he was wanting to watch the rugby! I did some research and I’m so happy that we came across the Rose & Crown. The owners reserved us a table to dine & watch the rugby next to the log fire - it was amazing. They went out of their way to dress the table and made us feel welcome. We were informed that there was a new chef & I can honestly say hand on heart it’s one of the tastiest meals out we’ve ever had. The toffee pudding was out of this world! Thank you so much for your hospitality. Would 100% recommend. The pub had a lovely rustic feel & everyone was warm and welcoming!

Wonderful welcoming pub; great service; delicious food.

Never judge a book by its cover we was in the area to remember our work colleague who sadly passed one week ago in your area tragically - absolutely disgusting - if you are passing and want to stop of for a great meal - friendly welcome highly recommend the Queens head (thank you guys for welcoming us)

We visited the place on a Sunday. The owners are welcoming and the food was amazing.

Amazing food, the best we’ve had on our two week holiday from Australia. Claire and staff were lovely, highly recommended. Love the small details, owners have done a great job!

Kitchen was closed. Staff was nice. Big TV.

Friendly staff and great service

Brilliant night, owners and staff are amazing would recommend 💯

Lovely place and the food was delicious, definitely going back

Had a lovely drink and a takeaway at this pub. Great service from Sophie!!

Food tasty but don't get enough.

Enjoyable Sunday Roast, in a very pleasant British country pub. Lovely service from the owner, his wife and staff.

Very friendly pub and great food

We had dinner here on our way home from our trip, we just picked a random place an I am so glad we did. Staff was lovely,very welcoming, food was great and very generous portions. A lovely little place and very family friendly. Thankyou

New landlord this summer, really friendly, good pub food, good beer, cider, wine etc. Can eat outside in the marquee even if you buy a pizza from the local pizza van! Good country pub with good atmosphere during this summer.

Great little place for a drink. Nice atmosphere too. Not to be missed.

Couldn’t have asked for a better day.. Also had fathers day at the Rose and Crown Delicious especially the roast potatoes yummy and delicious desserts.

Top class country pub. Great food and atmosphere

The meal was excellent. The dining area very nice and relaxed. The staff were very friendly and always helpful. Plenty of parking. A most enjoyable meal at a fair price.

Good ale good food plenty, friendly staff and good parking well worth the trip

We made an unplanned visit to the Rose & Crown for Sunday lunch, and was pleasantly surprised. The portion sizes were very generous and we thoroughly enjoyed our meals. They run a limited menu on Sundays, but that's not a problem if you like a good roast. It was very quiet, so the service we experienced was great. Cheers!

Excellent beer, friendly and efficient service.

Lovely outside space, great service.

Nothing like the Rose & Crown that I remember, seems to have lost its atmosphere, just another plastic pub now since its refurb, beer was ok but I wouldn't go out of my way for any more. Shame really as it used to be a cracking little village pub.

Not a good meal had to send it back.

Been this lunchtime, (Saturday 26th February 2022) 5 of us three adults and two kids, lovely meal, good sized portions good friendly service and good price, only downside was that there was no heating on in the place when we got there.

Nice local beer and delicious pie.

Fab atmosphere, nice country pub.

Food was great here and yhe staff are lovely. Seeed to be under a bit of pressure I.e. very busy. Loved it.

Lovely pub, staff are friendly helpful and personable and food mega bang for buck!

Lovely local pub and restaurant with great food and friendly staff. Food was excellent especially the steaks, a specialty of the chef I was told. The staff ensured our table of 10 were well taken care of on a busy Friday evening.

Really nice pub, great atmosphere, dog friendly, the food was good and we were served by a lovely smiley lady who enjoyed singing happy birthday with us!

Very hospitable. Good simple food, at a very reasonable price

Very good service food lovely staff very good would recommend

Really lovely place. Excellent service. Lovely atmosphere.

Sunday lunch very disappointed. Soggy Yorkshire, soggy roast potatoes,tasteless veg and no flavour at all in the beef!!Also staff maskless and no details for covid taken.Won't be going again.

Delicious food, excellent service

Nice rooms but no room Internet or general info not there. Food is a interesting one, pub restaurant open spasmodic hours which is a closely guarded secret yes ha ha, was BH weekend but that's when most use it, no info in rooms and breakfast well a £10 box ?( not recommended by manager) or shop across road open 7.30 we are informed ha ha.open 8.00 to 8.30 Ifj you are lucky.HA Monday NO FOOD so a drive to GREGGS they were open BUT again no info in room the menus and opening time ? If you won't a room yes but a room and food No.

Good food, good beer, great staff.

A lovely village pub, We can't wait for it to reopen.

Sunday dinner, most of it was just luke warm and the Yorkshires were completely black! We asked if the kitchen had any not so black the response was another plate of burnt offerings. Won't be going back!

We decided to take friends to The Rose and Crown for Sunday lunch, very disappointed, uninviting service, cold mashed potatoes and burnt Yorkshire. Plus burnt over cooked lasagne. Very poor. Won't return.

Great refurb done, very welcoming, great cider on draught!

Great food in a classic country pub. Coping very well with covid measures too. Definitely worth a visit.

Only stopped by briefly.. lovely ambience.

New head chef means excellent food for a fab price! Wednesday night was steak night meaning it was 2 rumps for £18! There were also plenty of other meals available and basket meals for if you were sat outside in the courtyard. Couldn't fault the food. The manager seemed a bit scattered but the rest of the serving team were attentive and friendly. Overall a fab visit. Will definitely be returning!

Proper home made chips! That's always a runner! We'll be back!

Fantastic steak chip and a wonderful business lunch Many thanks

Very friendly and good food and service

Poor - lunch for 24 people cost £9 per head for a bowl of watery tomato soup with far too much pepper added and a boring cheese sandwich made with supermarket brown bread.

Had a fantastic meal with great service with a smile thank you

Really lovely little country pub, friendly helpful bar staff, reasonably priced, large open fire (currently out of service due to a chimney fire) bit cold but being dealt with. Food was lovely. We had two jacket spuds, prawn Marie rose - loads of prawns ! And a good selection of salad with it, he had cheese and beans, both delish! approx £6 ish each. Good size portion for lunch. Will defo go again. 👍

Call themselves 'grill on the hill' but it's mediocre. Unattentive staff getting orders wrong. Lack of table service. Wouldn't go back - many places doing it far better.

Really lovely place, nicely set out, lovely food and great welcome from all the staff too, highly recommended

Renovated and Refitted in 2019, great atmosphere and decor. Good selection of Local Real Ales.

Nicely refurbished. Beer fine.

Lovely meal with great service - will visit again!

Excellent in every aspect of service a quality.

Very nice place, food good, staff very friendly.. Excellent place x

Menu limited. Portion size VERY small. Seating near bar very uncomfortable. Disappointing

A really good job made of the redevelopment. Sympathetically done to retain some of the original features

we visited this lovely recently reopened pub last night and although the restaurant was quiet, we were served an excellent meal. The management had warned us that they were still awaiting their alcohol licence but this was no problem as we were able to bring our own. The food was excellent and we shall CERTAINLY recommend this restaurant to our friends and return ourselves. I had the cod loin which was as good a cod loin as I have ever had - well done to the chef. The staff were very friendly and polite and we thoroughly enjoyed the evening thank you

Fantastic food, great atmosphere, newly refurbished country pub, very clean and trendy pub/restaurant would deffinatly recommend

Lovely inside, no alcohol license which we knew about no problem. You can take your own. Menu limited it was mainly Sunday lunch but again not a problem. Beef, lamb, chicken, steak & ale pie, fish & chips. We ordered, I asked for chicken but it had all gone. I'm not a fussy eater but I don't eat red meat, don't like it. The owner checked but had run out of chicken & I felt like it was my fault. I ended up with veg sausages, my friend with fish&chips. A sorry was all we got, also read the menu as all roasties are cooked in goose fat. Desserts were quite basic but tasty. My goddaughter had a warm brownie with honeycomb ice cream but it was just vanilla. Enough food & 2 courses for £15 ish, nicely cooked & presented also clean & modern toilets. Just felt as customers we were only money.1st visit disappointed maybe have to go earlier but we had booked & run out of chicken, an everyday product by 5pm? When we paid we weren't even offered a free drink as a gesture. A shame as very convenient meeting place for our group.

A great 'new' pub; new (and better) owners

Recently reopened after refurbishment. Seems to be focused on dinners. Bar area is a bit of a thoroughfare and not conducive to drinking.

Nice atmosphere early Sunday evening.

Great quality sunday roast, very good value. Cheerful old pub.

Nice place. Nice people. Nice food!

The previous tenants have now left the Rose & Crown - in the middle of the night! I believe they were totally disillusioned with their landlords who had promised all sorts of improvements which never happened e.g. new car park, refurbished toilets. The pub looks very run down and the decor leaves a lot to be desired - the furniture is poor and the worn carpet highlighted with slug trails. Also, the pub is quite cold and damp. I also believe the private accommodation was condemned as unsafe by the fire officer so can't blame them for worrying about their safety. Would suggest you avoid this pub until it is (if ever) under new ownership.

New management team doing really well, great atmosphere a proper country pub. Food good but don't expect Gordon Ramsey .
