Rose Inn in Maldon

We have been to the Rose quite a few times now and love the atmosphere. It is a very welcoming pub and the staff are great. This visit was a cheese and wine night which was amazing with lots of variety and very appetising. Our previous visit had been afternoon tea which was equally as good. I wish we were nearer as we would visit a lot more often.

we called in on Sunday and had a really lovely roast , couldn't eat it all but it was great will go back soon

Had some lovely roasts delivered from the Rose a couple of Sundays ago and have collected a couple of roasts since. Both times really tasty. Visited the pub for lunch this week for the first time. Sat outside on the terrace which is part inside but with one end open so fresh air surrounding us. All tables a fair space apart. Meals were excellent and plentiful. We had steak and ale pie, cod and chips and chicken burger and chips - all delicious. Crumble and profiteroles for dessert and then coffee - topped it off very nicely! Will definitely eat in again, and when we can't will have the roast as a takeaway on a Sunday. Thanks again to the Rose for some lovely meals.

A very welcoming pub with excellent food and friendly staff . Highly recommend a visit . You won’t be disappointed.

Recently been going to the Rose since has been taken over by Amanda and Jacquie. Food is fab, atmosphere is warm and welcoming. Lovely place to visit, very accommodating and clientele are fun. Would def recommend a visit.

Well went to visit The Rose Inn this morning for breakfast, website says opening times 9:30 am - 22:00pm. Turned up at 10:00am no sign of life all blinds down no signs anywhere to explain why. I think website needs to be reviewed

Looks like it’s only recently been taken over and it’s been refit and decorated really nicely. Very welcoming new landlords, lovely beer garden and great Pinot Grigio.

We've been to the Rose a couple of times since the change of management and I'm happy to say it's still a friendly little country pub , just as it was before the changes. Food is still available , and still at a great price . For us its a 50 mile round trip to visit the Rose - and it's still worth it.

The standard of the food has gone down a lot since the new owners took over,and very unfriendly atmosphere and extortionate prices,won't be returning here again sadly

Went today as it us now under new ownership but sadly not the same as it was. Will leave it for a while to see how things progress before going back.

The food is great and the owners and staff very friendly. Plenty of under cover seating outside even though the pub is quiet small. They even do Sunday lunch and breakfast home delivery

Went here for the first time and was impressed with the service and overall experience.food was lovely and fresh.

We often have breakfast or sunday lunch delivered and its always great. In fact visiting friend often takes home a sunday lunch for his family to Romford! Recently visited for evening meal and didn’t disappoint. Great food, great service and pleasant surroundings. Should be no 1 in Southminster in my opinion!

Lovely people , food and drink, it’s a really cosy friendly pub , they do great breakfast , lunch and dinner , would highly recommend

we stopped for lunch at this pub , overall very nice meal (we all had different food) with good service and everything freshly prepared . would definitely return .

We thoroughly enjoyed our lunch at the Rose in Southminster. It’s not huge but has a wide menu of meals, sandwiches and kids’ meals. Veggie chilli and scampi were particularly good. Seven of us ate meals and drinks for under £60 and kids were entertained by table football and darts. We are planning to return for music bingo night!

Went here the other Friday with my partner, found very good reviews online especially about the portions sizes and it didn’t disappoint! Nachos and the jalapeño poppers were good followed by Scampi & Fish and Chips. The other reviews don’t lie, the chips are huge! Could barely even finish half of them they were that big. Would definitely recommend if you are in the Burnham area and want both good food and value for money.

Lovely pub food great the portions are huge the staff are very helpful and were quick to take away the dirty dishes highly recommend we will be going back

Me my sister and friend had lunch at the rose today we had not eaten all morning so we were all very hungry went to bar ordered drinks then given the vast menu it's huge we all choose deep fried brie which was hot huge and delious I choose chicken curry and rice my sister had homemade lasagne with chips and salad our friend had homemade steak pie mash and veg all arrived hot and the portions were huge we could not finish it all but very disappointed that we did not manage a dessert next time we will have a sandwich the lady that served us was very pleasant and very helpful

The Rose Inn is a quaint, typically English-style pub with a very friendly staff and great pub-style food. I even tried and liked the mushy peas! Others in our group had the Tuna Panini which came with a large salad. It was also very surprising to see the large area out the back of the pub which hosts bands and dart flights.

We have been to most places around the Southminster/Burnham area for breakfast and think we have just found our new favourite

Went for breakfast with my daughter and grand-daughter (age 8). Large menu, plenty of choice. Tea, coffee and hot chocolate come free as well as toast. Had lovely breakfast, all very friendly.

Great food, friendly, good beer and a good stop on a walk in lovely countryside. Having read the other reviews I arranged to meet my wife who was rambling with the Maldon & Dengie Ramblers in the area. We were not disappointed 👍

We've had full English breakfasts and Sunday lunches delivered from here - lovely!!! Good quality products and prompt service. Would highly recommend .

Known as one of the best places to eat for Lunch in the Dengie and they are not wrong. I have been to the Rose Inn for lunch a few times and enjoy each visit. It's nice and secluded from the nearby towns located between Southminster and Burnham-on-Crouch. In and outdoor seating available.

Had a great Roast beef dinner here last Sunday. Good sized portions, friendly staff. Couldn't manage a pudding.

6 of us walked there from Burnham for a late Breakfast on a nice sunny Sunday morning. Good choice on the breakfast menu - served 'till midday - and everyone very happy with choices

If you fancy visiting a quaint old pub a little off the beaten track, then you will like the Rose Inn. The staff there are very friendly, there is a nice atmosphere there, which makes it a good place for a nice pint. They can also provide you you with some food if you wish, all for a very reasonable price.

lovely venue, excellent service, first class food and massive portions, what more can you wish for. Oh and very reasonable prices. Very deceiving pub, looks small from outside but has been brilliantly enlarged at rear with outside entertainment area including stage.

Went on spec for first time. Lovely and warm, open fire and big breakfast for two for a tenner! Will definitely go again!

Really lovely meals, have been for both breakfast and lunch, and on all occasions food has been freshly cooked and extremely tasty. Very generous portions and excellent value. Highly recommended, with excellent service and very friendly staff.

Our first visit to the Rose was for Sunday breakfast , small and compact, but an extensive menu, quickly taken order by pleasant staff, local radio playing and a mixture of clients from all ages made for a relaxing Sunday breakfast, this place must be good because people arriving were certainly known by the staff and greeted as friends. The food was super, plenty and well cooked the price was unbelievable such good value to the point I queried the bill , we will be returning for breakfast the next Sunday I have off .

All the staff here are very friendly and look after their clients. The food here is always very tasty and cooked nicely. But it doesn't matter whether you've come to eat or just for a drink your bound to enjoy your time here

This pub must be the most unwelcoming I've ever been in ! !

Have eaten at the Rose many times and its always been an absolute treat. Food is excellent prices equally good. Friendly staff excellent cider ( Old Rosie ) and beer. Absolutely the best chunky chips in Essex

Highly recommended! Food for breakfast and dinner is amazing. All sports are shown and the bar staff including owners are great. Well worth a visit.

Welcoming atmosphere by staff & customers, the pub has loads of character and a good selection of food & beers etc. this pub caters to well behaved adults as well as chidren, well worth a visit !........................Uncle Fester

Been here a few times now, really accommodating for children. Breakfasts are great and a must if you haven't had one. Dinner is also very nice. Looking forward to the summer and the beer garden. Totally recommend the rose inn.

food here was brillant very accomdating, we came here with 3 children was a bit noisey, but the lady who served us was very accomationg , and helpful, food was a very good price, and cooked nice, i would like to return to this pub again when in this area

An amazing pub for a drink, very friendly and family orriantated. And as for the food it is amazing home cooked food. With a specials board that changes weekly .

Lovely place to eat home cooked food. Great value too. Been for breakfast and evening meal Will be returning .

This place is amazing. I have visited for breakfast, lunch, evening meals and evening entertainment! Never disappointed. The staff are amazing, food is fantastic and the company is fantastic. Well done for building a great family friendly pub xxx

This pub is well worth a visit, the food is amazing !!! a small and friendly place full of charm, friendly landladies and staff who do everything they can to make your visit enjoyable. I can highly recommend this pub

Everyone needs to try the Rose Inn, the food is amazing and great portion sizes, the home made food is very tasty and the chunky chips are fab, Ali &Shelley; are great landladys, there is a great variety of different beers as well, the staff are very friendly and give amazing service, everyone needs to pay a visit I'm sure you won't be disappointed x

Had a lovely lunch yesterday, we had a really tasty quorn curry, I find it hard to get good veggie foot in the area, so I'll definitely be coming back, lovely atmosphere and great value for money

This lovely pub does excellent meals, myself and friends have now made this our regular eating place, from the breakfasts to the dinners we have never been disapointed. The service is excellent and the staff are extremely friendly and welcoming.

Visited Tuesday for lunch brilliant. Clean good food and good service, so booked for the Saturday evening....apalling! ! It's small inside approx 5 tables, we waited for over half an hour for our order to be taken, we did receive an apology. We waited for over an hour for our dinner. We ordered 4 main courses they only cooked 3. We had almost finished our meal when the last meal arrived. Again we received an apology and a bottle of wine. We then had to chase the waitress to place our dessert order. During the meal a guy with three dogs came into the restaurant sat and had a drink. Further inside there was another couple with their dog. Later on another big dog was brought in and put behind the bar! Can't help but think this is not right but you can make your own mind up on this one.

A great little Pub/Restaurant, serving both pub meals and great restaurant quality food. The staff were delightful. Very friendly and helpful. The food was delicious. Many various beers on tap and a very comfortable, enjoyable evening was had.
