Cloudy San Miguel! Staff handled it well in swapping out my pint for a bottle. However the cloudy pints still poured. This is unacceptable from a historical pub in arguably the best village in Cheshire. Come on guys we don't mind paying the prices but not at the expense of a poor pint!!

Was looking forward to our stay at the Rose and Crown but was extremely disappointed. The bar closes at 7pm on a Sunday night and no food is available. Fortunately there was other restaurants nearby. The room was adequate but the plumbing system left a lot to be desired. No water in our room on Sunday night and a trickle of a shower on Monday morning. Don't believe that the staff are unaware of the problem as there is clearly no water pressure in the upstairs rooms. Lastly if you want quiet room do not pick this hotel as on the flight path of Manchester Airport. The TV goes off when a plane flies over. Disappointing stay will not be retuning.

Consistent consistent consistent! Sunday lunch is ALWAYS a winner, warm welcome, great service, awesome food.. You will want to come back! Dave and Shirley have this bang on, busy, so book ahead and this sells out every week. From the classic beef to the all time smash that is the beef wellington, plus a fine selection of fish and of course chicken plus a very good veggie option.. I think the reviews say it all, just go and decide for yourself..

Stayed here for a weekend. Had a lovely time. Staff super friendly, beer, food and accommodation excellent for the price. We turned up early for breakfast, by 45 minutes on the Saturday, but the server took care of us without an issue. We stayed in room 4 which overlooks the high street, this could be a bit noisy for some on a weekend evening but no issues for us.

We had not been to the Rose and Crown for a while, we were aware it had changed hands, but thought we’d give it a go for Sunday lunch as it was always awesome. The bar drinks were the same and we were served promptly, and no issues. The table was ok. We ordered 2 Sunday roast beef, the price had increased to £25, but we were told it came with veg, cauli cheese and gravy. The food was tasty, but it really needed to have 3 slices of beef, as we felt cheated with only 2, which were very small. The wine was expensive by the glass, so have a bottle if you want wine. Based on the overall cost of lunch, which was over £100 with wine and pudding (no starter) & service charge, I don’t think we will return, as there are better places to eat for better value!

Food was good, but that wasn't the issue. No problem with places being Dog Friendly, but when you've got a group of 3 in with 4 dogs and a kid, the dogs of which are running under your table and getting dog hair in your food, followed by the group vaping at the table next to you when you're eating, it kind of ruins your meal. Won't be returning in a hurry.

Eight of us went for a late Sunday lunch. I had the salmon, and the rest had the roast beef. My meal was delicious and nice and hot. Unfortunately, the beef was not hot and had to go back to the kitchen. They brought back seven replaced dinners. Everyone was really pleased with the replacements, and all said they were delicious too. No issues. The pub is well laid out, nice decor and has a great outside space. The service was very good considering how busy the pub was.

First time back at the Rose & Crown for some time. Service was great and food was very good. Roast was as good as it always has been and there were a good choice of alternatives on the menu. My main criticism would be the atmosphere has gone. Staff don't seem as happy as they used to be and there isn't that feeling that you're a valued customer.

We arrived in Knutsford at lunchtime so went straight to Rose & Crown as I’d looked at ratings previously. Lunch did not disappoint! The pub itself is beautiful - full of character! Service was fab and food was delicious. My husband had the burger with caramelised onions and I had the chicken burger with hot honey sauce. They were both very fresh and tasty! Would highly recommend.

Just spent three nights at The Rose And Crown over May Day weekend, there are nine rooms and we took five (would have loved one of us to to be ‘inside no. 9’ though). One issue is that the television in my room kept cutting out so ruined my son’s viewing pleasure. Other than that can’t complain, I knew it would be noisy, we were above a pub, near-ish an airport and it was the weekend but these issues did not bother us as it was all expected. The pub is really lovely (busy) and the beer garden is pretty good too. Room was cleaned every day. And location is excellent for restaurants, shops, the heath, Tatton Park and the moor. The staff were really attentive, very friendly and super efficient. We ate out all the three nights choosing to eat at the pub our first night; me and my sons had the burger, we all enjoyed them very much. My hubby had the ‘balti pie’ and this was his favourite meal of the entire trip. We also had breakfast each morning, my eldest son absolutely loves hash browns on a brekky and my youngest son loves black pudding, neither of these items were on the menu so maybe in the future? Also Saturday morning perfect poached eggs, Sunday morning they were not as good and hard so Monday morning I had scrambled. I would definitely return.

My two absolute favourite features of the Rose and Crown, Knutsford are the incredible team of people that work there and the delicious food that they create and serve! I have never stayed there before and was immediately made to feel welcome - this care and attention continued throughout my stay. On top of that the food is excellent and not all that it seems! The Nduja sausage roll, for example, is like a sausage meat wellington with delicious red pepper ketchup and the Brazilian speciality steak, I am told, was superb. Not feeling particularly hungry I was also presented with perfect poached eggs for breakfast!! All in all a happy and delicious experience that I will gladly repeat! Thank you to all the hard workers - Simon.

Wow! What can I say? What an incredible experience today has been. We chose the Rose & Crown to celebrate my son’s birthday and they absolutely did not disappoint us. From the amazing food, a wonderful cake made by the extremely talented head chef, and the lovely atmosphere, to the outstanding customer service, genuinely, the staff were exceptional - you made sure all the family felt welcomed and wanted for nothing. I’d like to specifically thank, Alice, Eva and Tabby for their impeccable attention to detail, their warmth, courtesy and professionalism shone through, and you made the whole time we were there a pleasure. As previously mentioned: a huge thank you to the head chef for taking the time to make my son a gorgeous birthday cake, it was fantastic, as was all the food. All together, an incredible afternoon, I could not recommend the Rose & Crown highly enough. Thank you so much. 🙌

We booked our Sunday lunch in advance and arrived to find a busy old world pub with lots of atmosphere and well spaced tables. We skipped starters and plumped for the salmon and porchetta mains each supplied with lots of tasty vegetables. The yorkshire puddings and roast potatoes with the porchetta were stunning. We were so full that we passed on desserts. Food prices are not cheap but the quality of the food, efficient service and pleasant atmosphere more than compensated. We would not hesitate to return.

A return visit with friends did not disappoint. I have commented previously on the excellence of the R&C Sunday lunch and have nothing further to add. Of interest is the views and comments of co-diners. Of note is the quality of the produce used and the fact that everything tastes like a top quality home made roast. Credit must go the kitchen for their care and preparation of a memorable service. Pinot Noir at £40 is a little steep in a pub environment but probably worth it. It is to be noted that that some of our diners are already booked in for a future visit.

Fantastic wait staff, but sooooo noisy that glad to leave. Please do not underestimate the noise level. We had a partially deaf person with us, who said 'i have to leave as soon noisy' so you can imagine what fully hearing people had to endure. I left with a rod in my neck, my sister had to get in the car, put on sunglasses even though it was dark, and close her eyes for 30 mins due to a headache. The noise level, cackling women, shouting men, extremely loud bar area, made the meal unenjoyable. It's a shame as waiting staff brilliant, food ok, but pricey. Would never return due to noise level alone. Our party did not enjoy the experience at all and we were away from the bar. Not relaxing at all. 1 star rating is for the constant loud noise alone. Never again.

We only stayed the one night for the Tatton Park flower show but it really made our weekend. The hotel carpark was easy to find following the directions on the website. The hotel is wonderfully old and traditional with a querky modern twist. The outdoor seating area looked great as did the restaurant but we unfortunately arrived after the kitchen closed so didn't try out the menu. The staff were welcoming and friendly and our room was spacious, comfortable and clean. We had a great range of hot drinks in our room and the sweet pot full of Haribo was a great touch after a long drive. Breakfast was good and again the staff were really friendly and chatty. The only downside to our stay was an alarm for one of the shops across the road went off for about an hour in the middle of the night but that was no fault of the hotel.

Please inform a family with small kids if they will be waiting an hour for their food rather than ignore them. No one came over to ask if we wanted another drink or give an update on what was going on. We could have ordered some bread for the kids to tie them over. I do understand it’s a “pingdemic” but you had plenty of staff on and it wasn’t busy. You walked past our table multiple times completely ignoring us. You didn’t even have the decency to apologise for the wait when we finally got served. All we would have wanted it to be kept updated. Fish with skinny fries is just not quite right. Salmon was ok but the bernaise sauce a bit on the sharp side and salmon a bit over. The main letdown was the service though. It’s such a shame as we used to love meeting our family here but we won’t be coming back any time soon…

Had such an amazing time at this Hotel recently so we have booked again for December. We were a party of three couples who spent the night here, we started off with lunch on the terrace which was not only a lovely setting but the food was excellent. The breakfast included was faultless and then we booked for Sunday lunch, what can I say, this was probably the best Sunday lunch I have had out ever!! This is a lovely old pub that has been done up very tastefully without ruining the character, they serve lovely wine in nice big wine glasses. This is a family run Hotel with the most excellent and personal service. The only downside I can say is this place is so popular you will have to book months in advance. We will be planning this as a yearly trip as a group, cannot wait to return in December when we have literally booked in for lunch, evening meal, breakfast and Sunday lunch as there actually is no place better to eat in Knutsford.

All the staff were very friendly and attentive throughout the meal bringing extra drinks, serving us with a smile and chatting at the end. The food was delicious - I would particularly recommend the garlic prawns to start - (they were probably the best we have eaten outside of Portugal) they were a good sized portion and very tasty. Would thoroughly recommend this pub and will go back when we visit Knutsford next

Called in today to see if we could be fitted in for Sunday lunch; good decision. We were seated next to the ancient fireplace inscribed 1641 and treated to one of the best Sunday roasts we have had. Staff were attentive, the atmosphere felt very safe and the historic surroundings were wonderful. Two real ales were available on the hand pumps and I tried the locally-brewed one, Little Bollington Bitter from the Dunham Massey brewery - fantastic beer. Tasty, cool and refreshing.Given all the changes that the hospitality industry has suffered recently, it is brilliant to know that the Rose & Crown is hitting the heights in terms of quality experience.We will definitely be back!

The starters of Scotch Egg and Honey chipolatas were excellent, my fish and chips were to die for, well cooked fish without excess batter and great home made chips, my partner asked for the pork without rice but extra salad and she enjoyed her meal as much as I did mine. Would certainly recommend a visit here if you are visiting Knutsford.

Excellent English pub hotel. Staff were very good and pleasant and welcoming. Our room was clean and tidy and comfortable for a 2 night stay. Breakfast was excellent full English. Outside seating was very nice, the bar, restaurant was very tide and old in a very good traditional way ( floor and beams, real ). Good range of drinks and ales, food not expensive and something for everyone.

Stayed in the hotel during the last few weeks of lockdown and the first week of the pub reopening. The rooms were clean and comfortable and the staff couldn’t have been more helpful. Thankfully I got to taste the great food and beer on the last week of my stay. Big thanks to the staff and I’ll definitely be staying there again if the opportunity arises.

Just had Crispy Chilli Beef salad - might not be the healthiest salad but was superb. Staff are a delight - felt safe and very looked after. Beautiful outdoor terrace big tables.

Went here for lunch with hubby while out doing some Christmas shopping on a wet miserable day. Lovely cosy and warm place to eat! We shared the Christmas platter for 2 priced at £18. Was very tasty and filling. It included slices of Turkey, pigs in blankets, a scotch egg, roasties, bread, pate, chutney and gravy! Was delicious. Highly recommend it!

The Rose and Crown have done an amazing job during lockdown. They have maintained their excellent standard of food and drinks and selling the best pints of cask ale in the town.The outside seating area is amazing, the team have invested in a fantastic patio area for their customers and the outside service is top notch. They deserve support from the local community for the way they have continued to serve us through this tough time and always with a smile. Well done team - look forward to many more happy visits once this tough time is over.

The Rose and Crown is just the type of pub you would expect to find in upmarket Knutsford in many ways but not so in others. The Rose and Crown has good honest, upmarket pub food but the prices are reasonable and there are non of the pretensions that you find in some of the other eateries in Knutsford. This family run pub is a real gem. Some may comment that the drinks are a little on the pricey side but so they are in many of the other establishments that the Rose and Crown competes against as well.

We visited for lunch yesterday and we were glad we booked early. The restaurant filled up quickly. Good COVID measures in place. Nicola and her team were very welcoming as always. The food was exceptional as was the service. Beef, perfect and pink, great roast potatoes, piping hot vegetables and gravy to die for. Huge and fabulous Yorkshire puddings too. Good choice on the children’s menu and an exceptionally good chocolate brownie. As always lunch very reasonably priced and some excellent bitters being served.

Lovely overnight stay in room 4, a great room , immaculately clean, great facilities, and at a really good price. Breakfast was also really good. The staff were friendly and very helpful, and they are working really well with the Covid guidelines. Highly recommended, we will be back. Thanks to everyone, FOH staff are a credit to the business.

Popped in for an early evening drink on a Monday evening. Despite being quiet, it felt cosy and welcoming. Good selection of draft beers.
