The best restaurants in Rother South East

Friendly warm and knowledgeable barman (Calvin). Great food from the set menu. Well kept real ales. Came here for lunch at end of break and found a hidden gem. Set menu for food had a good range and it was good quality food which was very reasonable. Looking forward to going back to Rye so we can visit again soon.

Recommended to come here for great pub food, atmosphere and friendly service - all delivered on and more. We had pies and full of lots of meat and vege. Daughter had chicken nuggets which were proper big pieces of real chicken - what more could you ask for.

We had dinner on Sunday. I had butternut wellington, absolutely delicious and my partner had steak and ale pie, full of meat, fresh veg. The new owner, Cheryl, makes you very welcome and dogs are welcome too. She will pop a child's Sunday roast in a dog dish for the pooches which we'll definitely treat them to next time. Very reasonably priced. Pleasantly surprised. Heading back there this Sunday with my mum. Big car park and garden, clean loos, clean bar, lovely staff, great food, what more can you ask for?

Great service from the staff Bradly and Claire nothing was to much trouble, food was nice 👍 up from me and the family. Love the fact our dogs can come with us to. Thanks you 😁

Just to say to Alex & his colleagues. Thank you all for a lovely evening and stay. Could not have been made more welcome in a proper traditional pub. The Rose and Crown definitely one to put in book. Great top quality choice of drink choice (Especially the wine menu, hence the piccy). Food & breakfast totally hit the spot. Room exactly what I wanted, quiet, quaint & comfy. As for the staff & service couldn't have been more welcoming, plus always a smile on everyone's (Genuine) faces. Great stay, and real proper place, cheers 🍻

Such an expensive waste Laad Nah - bland, slimy, about four bits of chicken but hot Mixed starter - chicken wing bland, spring roll thick and bland, prawn toast ok, no sweet sauce supplied Won tons - chicken mince thick, tasteless and grey, pastry soggy Crispy beef - less than half a portion but it was spicy and tasty Chill chicken - tasty but less than half a portion VERY disappointed won't be ordering again

It's been shut down by Environmental Agency as rats everywhere, and dogs roaming in and out of the kitchen

Don’t eat here I had a burger the roll wasn’t toasted the burger was a frozen the heated up . And that was it apart from the tomato sauce. Chips where ok total cost £12.50 I did complain the manager said that’s how we cook them ..

Absolutely exceeded expectations. Staff were fantastic (and a special recognition for doing such an amazing job in sweltering heat). Great food, lovely place. We went back for a second time during our short stay to Ticehurst and if we are down this way again we’ll definitely book again.

The food was horrible. Bland rice and cheap preformed meat. Tasteless garbage sadly.

Sunday lunch with friends. Food all fresh from the freezer along with round meat. Yum. No need to say more Apparently a review has to be a bit longer.. I’d rather not waste my breath though.

One of the best Chinese takeaways I’ve ever had.

Good food, well cooked and decent size portions, always delivered in time by Martin . Have been using this takeaway for the past year and can highly recommend the food and delivery .

Very disappointed with the food and the service. Worst moules marinieres I ever had with no cream garlic sauce either. We wanted to buy a bottle of wine and were told that it was not possible and that the wine had to be bought in a carafe! Never heard his before!? Service was really bad, they really need to train the staff. The bill was £150 for 2 really not worth it. Will not visit again sadly.

Good amount of chips per portion and enjoyed them. However the 'large' cod was quite small consisted mostly of skin and batter. The batter was almost like bread crumbs. Not what I expected. Would not visit again by choice.
