The Rose in Dartford

Terrible service / rude staff (except from the young lady, bless her), very disappointed and won't be back

The first time I was very well taken care of. Today the attendants were not friendly or helpful. The food was reasonable

Had a family reunion over lunch time drinks and food. Great service and food.

The Rose is an awesome place to visit for food and drink. Great food options, great staff and importantly at a reasonable price. Sunday is only roast dinners but they are lovely. Been around 5 or 6 times for Sunday roast.

As a frequent visitor to the Rose, my wife and I found the whole experience excellent as always. The ladies serving the drinks could not have been more helpful and the food spectacular. If you haven't tried the Rose WHY Not?

Friendly and welcoming staff with a large manicured garden and covered terrace at the back. Wonderful food and excellent service. Highly recommended if you are in the area.

I first visited this pub yesterday and was shocked to find a beautiful outdoor garden well maintained and nurtured by the current owners, there are two pool tables and three dartboard's for the sportsmen amongst us. The food menu is varied and they do a very nice Sunday roast from the female chef as well as other dishes. One to definitely visit when in Dartford you won't be disappointed.

Have to say it was the best Pub Sunday Lunch we have ever had the food was plentiful/very hot and very well cooked. Could not be more impressed with the Food and the Service - very warm and welcoming.

Came for Father's day. The whole meal experience was fabulous. Everything came out piping hot and considering we were a party of 10 the service was spot on. Would fully recommend the roast and will be trying a week day lunch time meal - excellent 👌

I got the vegetarian roast with vege sausages as a substitute for meat and costs the same as standard roast but very different portion sizes. I was advised to book ahead for a vegetarian roast.

We needed somewhere in Dartford for a meal for my brother’s birthday. He was in hospital locally but could come out for a bit. Our mum is unlikely to see his next birthday, so you can imagine it felt like a pressure decision to find a good place. The Rose was just perfect. Warm welcome and great service, excellent food and surprisingly good value. We were impressed and grateful. Sunday lunch - a choice of roasts. I had the beef followed by chocolate/orange cheesecake. Really good with no dodgy bits at all.

Nice little hidden gem!!! Summer garden is lovely...when there is good weather to enjoy it

Best place around for Sunday lunch. Good home cooked food and great value for money. Nice friendly staff. Easy parking too.

My first visit for a Sunday Roast after hearing good reviews. The Rose did not disappoint a lovely prawn cocktail to start and a roast beef dinner. The portions were huge. Lovely atmosphere and the staff could not have been more friendly or helpful. A wonderful way to spend a Sunday afternoon thank you.

Lovely pub on the edge of town. Very friendly bunch of locals and staff. Can't fault my visit there.

Great little pub, lovely food and a good selection of beers, brilliant staff, definitely on the list to revisit, we were a group of six and nothing was too much trouble, excellent service.

Really enjoy meeting my family here for lunch. Friendly, clean and a good menu.

I did add notes that haven't appeared. Our Sunday lunch before Xmas was absolutely fabulous, great service and at a very reasonable price. The pubs atmosphere reminds me of the old days with young and old (myself) all having a laugh and enjoying esch others company. 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍 Thanks Steve

My friend and my self went couple weeks ago on Sunday for a roast and it was beautiful. Really recommend This pub food is beautiful service is great and atmosphere brilliant Lesley

This is one of many visits to the Fantastic Rose last Sunday we took our family grandchildren etc so there was six of us. Yet again The Sunday Lunch was absolutely top draw. The service was brilliant nothing was to much trouble so with two grandchildren that goes along way . The Rose takes Sunday Lunch to another level . We cannot wait for our next visit

Nice lady behind bar very helpful good place to go

Great pub with a fantastic atmosphere

It's a lovely pub with good selection of drinks, pool tables & lovely large back garden. I & mate had a wonderful evening. If I only known they served food we would have some food. I do recommend this pud for those whom what a wonderful, relaxing experience & also family friendly.

Best Sunday Roast in Dartford, very large portion and home cooking to perfection. Delivered hot and potatoes still crispy . Highly recommended

We went for lunch a lovely Sunday roast which was delicious And the cheesecake was amazing. Staff were great very friendly

Fantastic Sunday lunch, could not fault the meal.

Great staff real fun and helpful

First time visiting this pub yesterday & what a little gem this pub is lovely garden area & friendly staff will definitely be visiting again soon

Nice pub, pool tables are not great but still playable , dart boards available and a good pint poured well by friendly bar staff, no agg and a nice garden to enjoy your cold pint

Delicious food, lovely staff and gorgeous location. This is a surprising gem, and within very close walking distance to the station and the orchard theatre. Would recommend this charming pub and will definitely be coming back again.

The food and service were excellent. Staff very accommodating, even offering low fat dressing to accommodate for slimming world. Garden is enclosed and very peaceful. Good quality at very reasonable price.

Visited to book the Wake for my step mothers funeral and stayed for a late lunch. Great menu, proper pub lunch, good portions, very tasty and a fab price. The service was also great. Very nice garden area too. The cost for the Wake refreshments provided by Angela was brilliant and the food that will be included was much more than I anticipated. All in all a lovely little pub off the beaten track of Dartford Town centre. I will definitely be returning.

36年くらい前に剣道で留学して藤井先生によく連れていってもらってたパブ!(^^)!まだあったんですね。ダーツやコインゲームよくやったな子供ながらに!(^^)!

One of the best bars in Dartford, friendly staff, beautiful landscaped garden and great food.

Definitely worthy of a visit. My daughter had her 50th birthday party here. We had delicious snacks which were replenished all afternoon. We were placed in the covered and heated garden room, and spilt out ino the garden. The children loved playing in the garden too. The staff were really helpful when I asked for a place to park my mobility scooter, and helped me go through the pub, which has a couple of high steps, so it would be fine for people with limited mobility, but not suitable for a wheelchair.

Food and staff were lovely. The one downside was that I thought the car park was part of the pub and I got a parking fine. Might be an idea to have a notice in the pub about paying for parking

Nipped in for a drink, very friendly people and a great pub

Just been for a meal with family, absolutely great food, lovely service, very friendly, great atmosphere, will definitely be going there again. Thanks to all the staff xx

Really good Sunday Lunch at a reasonable price For three courses Friendly staff and car parking on site

You really cannot beat The Rose Sunday roast. Beautiful home cooked food and plentiful portions. Never disappoints! Cheerful and helpful staff too. Can’t recommend enough.

Had a lovely family Sunday roast ( just the oldies) on 12th Feb, there was 7 of us and it was beautiful, would highly recommend. Lovely friendly staff too. We will definately be back.

Good food and well cooked, variety of vegetables. Pleasant staff. Although my first time there it is obviously popular

I have lived in the area for over 20 years and never been in the "Rose". I had a family dinner today 😋 and it was very nice. Nice pub friendly and has a very nice pub garden. This place was recommended to us . 10/10 thank you be back soon for a drink night out.

Great atmosphere, food was spot on, and the staff was very friendly.

A lovely friendly Pub . A good choice of beers and wine. A splendid Sunday dinner at a very good price . We will definitely be going back again . Thank for fitting us in at the last moment.

You haven’t lost your touch. Always a great Sunday Roast and a friendly welcome awaits at the Rose. We came up from Wiltshire to share lunch with family and I just wish you were closer as the food and atmosphere was great. See you soon Ian & Jill

Lovely local , great food , fantastic management . Can't fault it .

Absolutely lovely dinner. Food hot, meat tender and cheesecake to finish off. 5 stars.

We were a party of 5 ladies meeting up for a Christmas lunch. Everything from the greeting, the service and the food was amazing. Thank you the staff at the Rose we will be back!

Booked for Sunday roast, we were two families with young children. The food and the service are absolutely stunning, we surely recommend the place as a spot to do not miss 😉. We are sorry for giving you a loud and noisy lunch 🤣

Another visit to a wonderful pub. Just noticed they have some interesting clocks. I found a Mars, a Uranus and a Pluto. I am looking for the rest. Guinness is still excellent as it the Tribute

First time at the Rose today for my mums birthday. There were 10 of us so quite a big table to serve. When we arrived the staff were very attentive and friendly which gave the pub a lovely atmosphere. I had heard that the food was good but it was absolutely delicious! The starter of Tempura cod was very tasty and the Roast dinner exceeded all our expectations 😋. Would thoroughly recommend it and thank you to all the staff for looking after us and making it a very special occasion.😊

Lovely roast yesterday Sunday 9th Staff so friendly Could not do enough Such a lovely garden and everybody so pleasant an d chatty Defiantly be back Mary And family X

Good service and nice meal. I enjoy it very much. Would recommend. Staff were very friendly and I could not fault the service.

Amazing roast dinner today The lemon sponge was delicious

Its ok good food clean in pub lacks having real ale

A welcoming pub with fantastic FRESH food, highly recommended

Smashing garden and the roast dinners smelt divine. Limited spirits on sale if they expanded on this it would be a 5 star review

Nice place... Spacious, big garden, shows sports, good food and friendly staff and atmosphere...

Discovered this place recently and will definitely come back more often. Friendly staff, good mood costumes, pool, nice garden and more.

One of the best pubs you could visit. Friendly staff,great food,superb beer garden. I've been going there for years and have made many friends for life over the years.

Lovely staff and an amazing garden out the back, well worth the visit.

Had my first visit on Sunday and it definitely won’t be my last. Lovely roast dinner followed by cherry and apple pie with custard, under £20. Welcoming and attentive staff. Thank you.

Nice friendly vibes little gem of a pub

First time having visited this venue and found it very pleasing. Hsd Sunday lunch and altough there was 22 in our party , it was excellent. It was a beautiful sunny day and the staff were very personable and efficient. Certainly to be recommended.

Blinding little boozer, absolutely epic garden. Just off the beaten track. Proper little gem. 👌

First visit my grandson took me for Sunday lunch, lively atmosphere very friendly staff and a wonderful roast.

Lovely pub, good atmosphere and a great menu for food. Staff are always very welcoming. It's rare you have a good pool table at pubs and here you'll find two of them. Outside seating area is well maintained and now have heating and shelter.

Helpful staff friendly customers

I have just been to The Rose for our Aquafit Christmas lunch. The food was delicious, perfectly cooked sea bass. Staff lovely and service brilliant. Highly recommend. Thanks to all the staff. Merry Christmas.

After having read some many great reviews about this pubs sunday lunch. Me and a friend decided to try it and I must say what a excellent Sunday lunch it was the roast beef was very tender and well cooked just as I like it. The staff were very friendly and helpful. It's a pub I certainly would return to for a meal when i'm in the area.

It has good parking and is adjacent to the town centre. The decor is of a high standard and service matches that. The rear garden is immaculate and tasteful garden furniture has been installed. Overall a very relaxing and enjoyable pub.

Great food friendly service beautifull garden

Ange, Shaun and staff run this amazing pub and their hospitality and food are second to none. They have to be highly commended for their stringent Covid regulations too... it's reassuring and makes dining in a very safe environment to enjoy exemplary food. Well done, we will continue to support you! 😄

Excellent food at really good value.

Had a lovely roast with my partner very impressed with the service and the food thank you so much I had the onion soup and the beef and my partner had the lamb we were both very happy with every thing the garden was perfect the sun was out which made it all a 10star meal

Had a lovely evening Great little pub

I have never been here before we went with my brother his wife his two year old who looks more like a four year old and friend’s with their children. Very organised phone number/numbers taken for the just in case need to contact and trace, plenty of hand sanitiser in obvious places. The pub has been updated and modern the gardens are a good size and well laid out not close to anyone table, A good and thoughtful layout. Staff very welcoming and very pleasant considering there was 4 children and all boys but enough space for them to run around without being close to other people enjoying their day in the sun. The gardens are lovely to sit outside in the September sunshine, spent the day being served and eating and drinking, by good attentive staff. Food good, pub food at a reasonable price, we got a train back to Bexley afterwards and then home. Many thanks Rose Pub, we will be back.

Sunday Roast We came here for the first time this Sunday, was blown away by the quality of the food. Really lovely pub. Very welcoming and very reasonable. Would definitely come here again.

We live in Dartford and have been going by and not gone in it but had to meet someone so went in and had a very good surprise at the lovely garden at the back in which we had a lovely time bar staff could not be better we will definitely go again thank you.
