The Rose and Crown in King's Lynn and West Norfolk

Stayed for one night and lunch, absolutely lovely place, beautiful room and delicious food. Very friendly staff. Every possible need thought of with some lovely little touches. Breakfast amazing!!

Delicious food in a cosy welcoming pub with friendly staff. Sat and ate in the bar in front of the open fire on a Tuesday evening and the place had a good atmosphere. Also have lots of gluten free options.

We had a lovely evening meal here last week. Our friend lives locally and booked the table. One of her favourite restaurants in the area. It’s a lovely old pub, very cosy and welcoming. The staff were a delight. The food was super. The fish stew was delicious. Lots of unusual choices. Can highly recommend.

We visited twice for the Norfolk Restaurant Week menu, which we really enjoyed. Service was prompt, and the food was delicious (Sea Bream, Game Pie & Pumpkin Spaghetti for mains). Very busy. Lovely fires in both bars, and plenty of space for the two dogs. A lovely scent of wood smoke as we walked home. Take a torch if walking - very dark outside the pub, and no street lights.

Absolutely the best Sunday lunch in Norfolk, and we have tested widely! Great value for top quality produce, generous portions, and the beef is always superb. Friendly and energetic staff, it's always busy but they are keen to please and everything is well run. The decor always looks attractive, clean and beautiful. Book well ahead!

Disappointed. One of our party was unable to eat their pork chop because it was very tough. Although we were not charged and hot chips and cold vegetables were bought to repace the main..it was very disappointing. We can accept al dente but raw and wet was beyond the par! Add to that the delay in serving the same person their sweet..at least 10 minutes after the rest of the party made the whole experience one not to be repeated.

Stayed overnight. Great pub - lovely atmosphere. Busy bars on Friday evening. Friendly staff (and pub goers). Big car park and Wherry Ale! Lovely bedroom, great shower and all you need. Residents lounge was a bonus, lots of outdoor seating and lovely spacious restaurant. Evening meal was a pricey disappointment but maybe we just chose poorly from the menu. Duck and noodles, bland and sloppy, salmon and lentils ok but again sloppy. Panne cotta and cheeseboard good but not great value. Breakfast was however fantastic. Great full English (best I've had) and stacked eggs royal with huge portions of salmon. Great coffee, fruit juices, toast, and cereal options. Breakfast menu all sounded wonderful. Great staff and really efficient and friendly. Loved Snettisham, loved this pub, the accommodation and breakfast. Next stay (and there will be another) we may choose alternative evening meal though. Great reception staff too and excellent bed and breakfast value.

Friendly staff, good service, very good food and reasonable too. We go there each year when I’m visiting my cousin in Snettisham.

Great little find away from the hustle and bustle of Hunstanton. A proper community pub with the backing of well presented and tasty food. Great outdoor area, with an outdoor bar and kitchen (I'll guess that it's busy in the summer) play area for children, friendly staff and locals. Visit this place!

A great country pub, warm friendly welcome, staff were especially welcoming and accommodating of my toddler. Delicious food and drinks in a lovely setting.

It might be good pub food, but we didn’t stay:( Chose this spot because the website implied fresh, local, changing fare… more upscale. I don’t eat most meats, gluten or fried foods & there was only one fish (battered cod) & not a salad in site. Very basic pub food. Burger, beef rump, lamb, shepherd’s pie. I hate to give so few stars, but felt they are really fooling people given what their site advertises.

The pub is in a beautiful setting and the interior is very welcoming. However the food was very disappointing. Mum mother’s food was cold and most of the lamb was fat. My seabass was ok but again the potatoes and broad beans were tepid. We did complain and received my mother’s meal for half price. The staff were very helpful and service was good.

Just had Sunday lunch, decidedly underwhelmed. Told it was really busy but sat in the corner of an empty room for the entire lunch. Did no one check that the vegetables were cooked, my wife couldn't get her knife through the broccoli, the potatoes and parsnips were hard, don't they know how to parboil first? Roast lamb was just bits and pieces and fat. Fortunately my roast beef was excellent. Very disappointed

The service & food was amazing. We had a table for nine people. All food arrived at once and was hot. Staff were happy and helpful.

Great pub, lovely decor attentive staff excellent food and drinks. Fabulous for families with a large choice for children and a super outdoor play area. Would highly recommend!

We found this lovey old pub by chance on a visit to Norfolk and had a lovely fish and chips. So we stopped again and had a very Good Sunday roast. All members of staff so friendly, Great old pub. Wish it was my local !!

Very busy, plenty of staff, very friendly, good service. Food very good, slightly above average prices, but worth it. Excelllent choices of food and drinks.

We had an excellent meal at The Rose & Crown and I would highly recommend it. I had read the reviews and it didn’t disappoint- a very busy pub and an equally busy restaurant gave the place a great atmosphere. Service across all of the team was of the highest standard whilst also very friendly. I had the ribeye which was very good and my wife had fish and chips. Her fish was lovely and the batter so light and tasty (had to nick a bit as she was raving about how good it was). Good food, a very welcoming atmosphere so what more could you ask for.

I booked a table for Dinner Service, Booked originally for Monday however due to a car issue weren’t able to attend, We called and were offered a table the following night. We were greeted by warm and friendly staff, whose service you could not fault, and a beautiful restaurant area. A lovely menu with lots of options. We ordered two meals & drinks and didn’t have to wait too long for them to arrive. Both were delicious however had an issue with one not being hot enough, however as soon as this was mentioned to staff they offered a completely new main for us, they even discounted the new item by 25% on the bill as well. And super quickly it arrived, it was delicious and we couldn’t be happier with how they handled it. Will be back again.

Had a lovely couple of hours here while visiting the area. Lovely garden and fantastic staff in the outdoor bar make it a really easy place to visit even when busy. We were a fairly large group but all our food came out promptly and mostly as ordered. There was one issue with one meal that was dealt with fantastically by the waitress I spoke to and then the owner followed up with us to check we were ok. Complete opposite of The Victoria just down the road which we used on another day to try and mix things up - really should have just come back to this place, will do next time for sure

Really lovely meal. All id say there is no information about the service charge. It’s 12.5%, if you are buying drinks and meal suggest you buy your drinks separately as 12.5% on drinks and food make this meal very expensive compared to most places. Should be told this prior to sitting down.

One of the best meals we have ever had! Highly recommend this pub/restaurant. Menu amazing with specials too. Fish was perfectly cooked and all 3 courses were full of flavour and presented like a picture on the plate....beautiful. We will definitely return. The service was great and atmosphere friendly , huge fire in the bar and several other rooms with a selection of tables to choose from. My birthday was made all the more special by the food and service at the wonderful Rose and Crown in Snettisham. Thank you x

We were staying locally and have visited The Rose and Crown previously and always had good food and service - this weekend was no exception. On our first visit we had the R&C Burger and the pork loin - both were wonderful, freshly cooked with fantastic ingredients. We then wanted to book for Sunday lunch - we spoke to the team and they explained that they only had slots available about 4pm but they may have run out of roast dinners by that time - they do have a non roast menu. The staff said if we tried to get there about 12 then they would be able to accommodate us in the bar area. So glad we went the food was wonderful, freshly cooked and lovely ingredients. The service was great and the food arrived promptly. We had one roast beef and one roast pork with all the usual trimmings. Really really good food and quality - we then had fantastic deserts - apple and pear crumble and profiteroles both were delicious. The bar staff were very friendly and helpful. We will definitely be going back when we are next in the area. I have no hesitation in recommending The Rose and Crown.

We both had the chicken pie which was great. Lovely atmospheric pub. Dogs clearly welcome and hence people very friendly as they bond and discuss their dogs!

Went for mothers day lunch. Everything was perfect. Starters superb, roast beef main was cooked to perfection, dessert excellent. A glass of fantastic Montepulciano. Service was first rate. Lovely ambience to the place. You'd want it to be your local pub. Couldn't fault anything.

Whilst the food was tasty, when I asked about if a dish could be cooked without alcohol due to an allergy the response from serving staff was a flat no. There wasn't an offer to check with kitchen staff, an offer to see if the alcohol could be substituted for more cream or a vegetable stock, just a no. The menu had a leaning towards foods with alcohol within it. When it came to dessert, it would have been lovely to to have my favourite, profiteroles (particularly after the disappointment of missing out on my first choice for mains), much to my disappointment the profiteroles also had alcohol included in the form of a baileys cream. I decided to get the bill and leave. Overall, it was just rather disappointing about the lack of "care" to finding a solution to the inclusion of alcohol in food. I have fond memories of the pub and restaurant from going with my family as a child and teenager for meals. However, I was left feeling disappointed and underwhelmed.

Visited here one evening. Think this is the nicest dog friendly restaurant I’ve ever been in, decor and surroundings are stunning. All staff were welcoming and food/drink was tasty. Wasn’t the cheapest meal we had on our holiday but would say that the wine especially was lovely.

Decided on lunch out and the Rose and Crown was local to where we were staying so popped in on the off chance, they made us welcome even with our Greyhound, found us a table in the corner of the main room which suited us. Had a nice local bitter and ordered from a good choice on the menu, the food was quick and tasty and satisfied our hunger so much that we declined the dessert menu. We would definitely use again when next in the area.

We had a couple of drinks here after a lovely walk around the Sandringham estate. This pub, with it's warm cozy, welcoming fireplace is delightful and charming. The staff were super friendly and accommodating with a gorgeous roaring open fire to keep us warm. The menu looked fantastic too. Will definitely be back for food some time very soon.

The Rose & Crown Snettisham is wonderful. Friendly and professional staff, great restaurant, cosy traditional feel bars with a great selection of beers, and nice bedrooms. We stayed 2 nights and had dinner there both nights and breakfasts. The food is excellent and very fair value. Breakfast has a great selection and hearty portions. I really recommend this place.

Great Sunday lunch. My only criticism was that the beef was quite tough. It was cooked properly though. Not too overdone. The staff were friendly and attentive. The pub is like a warren. Lots of rooms and low beams. A building of real character. Great ambience. Can highly recommend.

Fantastic food. We went in for late lunch and had roast dinners and chicken curry amongst other things. Exceptionally cooked food and equally impressive front of house. Highly recommended!

Warm, atmospheric friendly pub. Good choice of food, made to diners requirements and served by competent unpretentious staff.

Attentive friendly service in a lovely warm and bright room. The menu wasn’t huge but there was decent selection of food with plenty to temp you. My friend had the fish pie while I had cod loin. Both were very good - full of flavour and well presented. Puddings we’re delicious too. We had a leisurely lunch and were not rushed at all. All good and will recommend to friends.

Came in for Sunday lunch, only one person on the bar on New Year’s Eve at lunch time therefore drinks took a considerable amount of time to be served. We asked for a food menu 10 minutes after ordering drinks and ordered two Sunday roasts at £18.95. On arrival there was no cutlery so had to ask the waitress to grab some as she was walking away from the table after putting the food down. The food itself was freezing cold and the beef was tough. In a nutshell the service was poor and the food was terrible. Shall not be eating at the establishment again

Really great service. Good food at reasonable prices. I had mussels and they were gorgeous. Our waitress was very cheerful and proficient .

A warm welcome and polite staff. Unfortunately the food was very poor. The fish was cooked from frozen and was, consequently, mushy and lacked and firmness to the flesh. Chips were dry, like warm and a couple were not cooked through. Won’t be paying a visit again.

It’s the 2nd year running we’ve stayed here as visiting the Sandringham Xmas Lights. There’s a reason we came back. Arrived and a staff member offered to take our bags for us. That set the tone for the totally amazing crew they have working there....

The serving staff are polite and professional, very welcoming .The food however is poor . Fish and chips were warm and the batter was undercooked, and soggy . The risotto was overcooked and overwhelming salty. The arancini and mussels were very nice. I have eaten...

We stayed a night with friends and also had a meal in the restaurant We all enjoyed our stay and will definitely come again Staff were very friendly and attentive

Disappointing food considering the reviews are high. Could not fault the pub and atmosphere it’s such a lovely place but let down by the food. We had the fish pie, presentation was promising but it was so salty it spoilt the dish. Plenty of fish...

We went on a Sunday night after checking online that the pub was open til 10. Upon arriving over a hour before, the front door was locked so it was a complete wasted journey. We had also visited the night before. There seemed an excessive...

We visited whilst passing expecting it to be busy as it was Norfolk Restaurant Week and only intending to have a drink and snack. However it was quiet and the menu was so appealing that we decided to have the restaurant week menu. So glad...

An excellent lunch as part of the Norfolk Restaurant Week. The food was well presented and great to eat. The staff were helpful and very pleasant. Thoroughly recommended.

Cosy traditional pub with restaurant quality food. Really enjoyed the venison, cooked to perfection. Also fabulous desserts and a good choice of cask ales. What more could you ask for.

Where to start…. Cocktails - awful, out of a bottle clearly. A mojito with one mint leaf 🙄 Main meal, absolutely awful. It made me ill and I was up for the majority of the evening not what I wanted on my holiday. Service was...

Popped in for a pint April 2024 and was meet by friendly bar staff. Said to myself that I’d go back for a family Sunday lunch in October. Again, meet by very friendly staff, excellent Sunday lunch and service.

New menu .and still as good if not better.corn fed chicken etc.hell yes .. classes burger was spot on also .. never disappointed..

The fish chowder here is spectacular. The smoked fish and the cream sauce were perfect. The best meal I ha all week. The pub bar was really active and the outside garden was a great place to have a drink and remember the day.

Stopped on the off chance of a Sunday lunch meal. Dinner was excellent very tasty, we could not fault the food at all. Would definitely go back

We had a problem getting the wine we had ordered and wondered what the service and meal would be like. We were totally taken aback. It was delicious. Our wine did arrive although after I had finished my starter but the starter and main course,...

Service was slow. We ordered drinks but fifteen minutes later they still hadn’t arrived, so we had to ask again. It was thirty minutes before anyone took our food order. The starters were excellent (scallops) but the mains were poor. The kleftico was nothing like...

Stayed the night on the 31st August. Lovely room, excellent beer selection of real ales in the bar. Timothy Taylor, moon gazer and more. Friendly staff. Large shaded carpark at rear which was ideal for our two labs as they're far happier in the car....

Top quality food, very well kept ales and great service in a lovely old pub. We were made to feel very welcome.

We stayed overnight here on our way to the coast, we also bought our dog as the pub is dog friendly. We had a lovely room, the shower was great, there were also some treats left for the dog which was a lovely touch. We...

Excellent place for an afternoon/evening meal. We had lovely food, hot and well presented, The staff were great everyone so friendly. Two dogs accommodated without any problems.

We went for a drink here which was pleasant enough and liked the look the menu. We were on holiday with our family. We asked in the bar if the restaurant would be likely to be able to seat a party of 12 in the...

The lack of empathy we received from the manageress in the restaurant was woeful!!! We was so embarrassed we couldn’t drink our drinks quick enough to leave! It wasn’t to get a free meal from it Just an ‘apology’ would have been enough!!!! Shocking service!!!

Generally enjoyable if expensive meal but some issues. Read the wine list carefully unless you are happy to be charged £11.90 for a glass of requested house rose. Reception confirmed price correct. We did read the menu carefully and two signature desserts were ordered. White...

Adorable pub inside and out. Quirky little rooms inside, outdoor seating at the front and a large walled garden with a bar and snack hut at the side. Food was great with efficient friendly service. Family and dog friendly. Would love to see more places...

Used to be great dining experience but last 2 meals, mothers day and in August, have not enjoyed the food and it was very overpriced and felt underwhelmed. Had scampi costing £16.50, reduced portion size now and no longer lovely side salad with cucumber/tomatoes and...

A gourmet restaurant experience in a pub. We visited with our dog who was fussed by all the friendly staff. It’s a rabbit warren of an old pub, full of character. The menu offers a superb selection of food, we tried the starter of Succatash...

Thank you for a lovely lazy lunch and afternoon. The food was good, but what made the difference between an ok visit and an excellent experience was a member of your bar staff. She works part-time, has blonde hair and tattoos. I can't remember her...

The Rose and Crown remains a lovely pub to go to. My veggie Sunday lunch was nice and my wife ordered the super food salad, because she wanted the avocado, Only one arrival she noticed that there was no avocado in the salad. We mentioned...

Stayed one night sat 29th Really could not fault our stay in the Grainstore with our very welcomed dog. Breakfast was excellent. All in all one of the nicest places we have stayed whilst visiting this part of Norfolk

A fantastic meal with our friends, the food and service excellent, thanks to Claudette, Jenna and Libby - our friends who have never been to the Rose and Crown lived the place

Disappointing, unfriendly attitude of lady behind bar (Brown top, white spots and hearts) rather ruined our experience, shame as kitchen produced food quickly and young lads serving very friendly.

Always difficult to book at last minute , we wanted somewhere local to us for late lunch with friends. They always make us welcome (with a wheelchair to accommodate). The food was delicious though it would be good to see a bigger variety of fish...

Fantastic as it always is. Good food. Great garden and perfect for children on a hot day. Great for a cosy winter meal or just sitting in the garden on a hot day. Playground is adored by children but it doesn’t lose it’s beautiful charm...

Came for Dads 60th on the 7th July (5 adults & 1 child). We were made to feel very welcome and thought the staff were excellent, especially with a very fussy eating 3 year old. For me it's the little touches that matter when dining...

A nice friendly welcome and the service throughout was excellent. The food was good and the Bao Bun starter simply excellent. The restaurant was busy, but service and the timely delivery of courses still ran smoothly. It was nice to see a Norfolk wine on...

We had decided to visit the rose and crown after a visit to Sandringham. What a disappointment, service was poor from the bar staff and the food was dire. My mum had mushroom soup with truffle oil and tarragon which came before anyone else’s meal...

The pub/restaurant did not look particularly inviting from the road but on entering car park we were amazed on how popular it appeared to be. The interior was really lovely and the waitress most attentive. We ordered the prawn and crab linguine which looked fabulous...

Came as a family of four after looking on trip advisor for a good place. My granny had the crab linguini which came out cold and was extremely hot with way too much chilli in. The chicken tikka my other half had it barely had...

The pub is nice but the food we had was really poor. We both had fish and chips and the the fish was salty to the point it was inedible and the chips were really under cooked. They gave us a free drink each but...

Big car park and walled garden. Went for Sunday lunch and had roast beef cost £18 50. Quiet expensive but absolutely delicious with all the trimmings, massive Yorkshire pudding.

Stopped off on the way home from the beach this evening and what a pleasant surprise. Great garden with play area, dog friendly with water and treats available and an outside bar. Food was excellent!

Delicious food! Polite staff, lovely ambience. Very comfortable picnic tables in the beer garden. Definitely worth coming here to have lunch if your in the area :) lovely inside also! Very quaint with old world charm but modern menu and service.

Visited several times while staying in Snettisham, and ate here on two occasions. The food was excellent on both visits, I don't usually choose fish and chips off the menu in a pub but was glad I did on this occasion, probably the best fish...

We came here for lunch with my Mum to celebrate her birthday. The staff were warm and welcoming and the restaurant looked very pretty with fairy lights and decor referencing the name. The menu was varied and had an especially good fish/seafood selection. Mum and...

The food here is beautiful-perfectly cooked with lots of fresh ingerdients, and one of those menus where it is so hard to choose as everything seems perfect. I had a chicken tikka curry which was full of fresh peppers, onions and spinach, accompanied by an...

Amazing quality food at more than acceptable prices, the food is to die for, and Marstons Pedigree at £4.40 a pint mmmm ? Yes please

This pub could be so good but on a recent visit it was a case of ‘could do better’ initial welcome was warm and friendly, with a good choice of menu. However my first three choices of cask beer were not available, this was after...

Totally Amazing, everything about it!!! They made us and our Cavalier feel so welcome, such a warmth with all the staff really Shows they enjoy working there. It’s also a pub where you can simply pop in for a pint and relax, plenty of room,...

Absolutely fantastic breakfast and faultlessly perfect customer service. Delicious Eggs Benedict and Eggs Florentine plus toast and coffee. R&C did us a mini porridge for the little one and all 3 of us left very satisfied and having been made to feel very welcome indeed....

Been coming for nearly 20 years , such a shame that it went wrong. No staff and we had to leave the restaurant to find a local restaurant. I had invited business people to join us and we had to leave. Been at the table...
