The best restaurants serving British food in Radcliffe North Bury North West

My wife and I called in on a Friday lunchtime on the spur of the moment. First impression is that it is a popular location so would probably be best to make a reservation. We were made to feel very welcome by staff and soon found a choice of two tables. The pub itself has a cosy ambience still feeling like the old coaching inn it once was, Tastefully decorated in keeping with the pubs heritage Staff courteous and amenable without being overbearing. I decided to have the soup of the day off the specials list, one of the best potato and leek soups I have had, served with a crispy bread and garlic and herb butter. My wife chose the steak frites as her main course, after much deliberation I chose the steak and ale pie opting for fries in stead of chips with a gorgeous portion of savoy cabbage. Meal was served promptly, piping hot, very well presented with a good portion size. Truly enjoyed my lunch, food was hand prepared and of high quality. Hardest decision was which main course to choose as I liked so many of them. I guess I will just have to return try the other choices. Particular thanks to our waitress I think she was called Lottie Very enjoyable experience would recommend without hesitation, much more than your average pub lunch - good effort!

I have enjoyed my afternoon in the Rose and Crown watching the football with a couple of beers. The staff and Ed and Bex were fantastic as usual. They make me so comfortable in the way they look after me and others. Thanks, Jim.
