Disappointed on our last visit as several main meal choices unavailable so my friend and I decided to have starters and pudding instead but hey ho decided to try the Rose and Crown again. Welcome ok and waitress very nice, not sure if she was new to the job but on having some queries regarding the menu,, give her , her do , went to find the answers for us . Service of food was prompt , but to be honest there were not many diners in the place on this Saturday night . My pie and veg was nice , could have been warmer and had to ask if there was any gravy , which was bought to my table . However , my friends meal of rice and chicken , again not particularly hot with the rice being in thick glutenous lumps not a particularly pleasing presentation.The waitress did then ask if we d like more drinks, but declined at the time as still had some left . She came back half an hour later , my friend asked for a coffee and was told everything was shutdown and they were closing I said sorry I thought you were open until 11pm , to which I was told it s a restaurant not a pub. So after re arranging taxi times, left at 10.25 , was told we could wait inside till taxi came but quite honestly just felt unwelcome. My point is why did she not inform us when she came previously to ask if we wanted more drinks that they were closing early or did I read it wrong on the website stating opening hours were till 11 pm . Anyway, again not a brilliant experience of the Rose and Crown .
