Rose Crown Bar Restaurant

Six of us descended on this very welcoming and attractive country pub Saturday 18th March. It was a lousy evening, that typical British drizzle that seems to get into your bones. Better that it should pour, somehow, that's more acceptable. I am deviating, so I'll continue my review. The welcome was friendly and inviting, although the restaurant was packed full, there was no sense of rushing us to our seats or to select a meal. It was all very genteel. The food was really lovely. It tasted home made and confirmed to us that it indeed, was. The service was excellent and we found the prices to be reasonable, but as with all eating establishments nowadays, the increase in price is noticeable. We live in Kent, but if living locally, this would be a venue of choice. 5 Stars awarded.

We used to be regulars at this pub but then lockdown came. This is a little gem. We are going to be regulars again! Under new management and the landlord (a real character) is so friendly and makes you feel very welcome and appreciated. The food is absolutely delicious. We were spoilt for choice of what to choose. The pavlova is out of this world with homemade meringue. I’m going to spread the word as they deserve to do really well, I cannot speak highly enough. Great food, atmosphere, cosy, lovely decor and very fair prices…one couldn’t ask for anything more.

The food was gorgeous, price was a bit expensive, got charged for a dash which I was surprised about. The only thing I would say is that we ordered the scotch egg expecting a runny yolk and served hot/warm. It was served cold and boiled. Apart from that, everything else was lovely.

Lovely traditional village pub serving a fab Sunday lunch just wish I’d left room for one of the delicious looking desserts. Plenty of cosy seating and friendly staff. We will be back.

Staying at the Rose Crown was a superb experience. The bed was comfortable, the shower was really good (it is surprising how often this is not the case), everything was very clean and well maintained. The views from the window to the main road was a picture postcard. We had dinner at the R C restaurant with friends who live in the area and the food was amazing, lovely relaxing atmosphere and good choices for vegetarians, vegans and those of us with intolerance. It was service with a smile without fuss. I most certainly recommend it.
