Wow! A super traditional old English Pub/ Bistro in the heart of Yardley Hastings village. I used to frequent this Pub many years ago and it was good back then, but now it has evolved to be one of the best Pubs I have visited in a long time. The food is home-cooked and very tasty (just like it was all those years ago) and the service is excellent. The Rose & Crown is a Free House and not tied to any brewery. Do book well in advance as even on weeknights it can get very busy.I had the Gluten-Free Fish & Chips & it was superb. For desert I had two scoops of delicious Ice Cream. My Son had Ham Egg & Chips and Sticky Toffee Pudding and he enjoyed it.The Rose & Crown also has Gluten Free IPA on draught and Peroni/ Duara in bottles.Great food, great service, all at a fair price.Highly recommended.Dietary restrictions: Good choices for Vegetarian, Gluten Free options. The Menu has a good selection and is clearly -marked next to each dish. There are also Gluten-Free Beers & Ale available.Parking: Loads of off-road parking available in a private Car Park.

Tasty, well presented and value for money.All tables were in use but we were not rushed at all. The atmosphere was very pleasant.Highly recommend this fabulous place.

Huge disappointment, long wait between starter and main both tables next to us had both finished their mains/puddings before we received our main, the starters were pate (can?t really do this one wrong) and devilled kidneys, the sauce was lovely but the kidney was slightly undercooked. When the mains did arrive the carbonara looked like it had been heated in the microwave as it was gloopy and surrounded by oil, the pasta was over cooked to the point it didn't even need to be cut, (there certainly was no swirling round the fork needed) the sauce was bland as was the chicken which had no flavour or colour, topped with a sprinkle of cold tempura courgette, huge disappointment and was inedible. The other main lamb rump came with dauphinoise potatoes that were much hotter than anything else on the plate (again clearly microwaved), the purple sprouting broccoli was woody and the ends had not been cut (looked like they had been snapped). The lamb tasted fine but was overcooked. When these issues were raised with staff, they were defensive/bordering on rude, a bit of face pulling etc They did remove the pasta main from the bill and offered a half hearted apology. I understand this is not fine dining, however all in all the food and service was poor and staff didn?t seem that bothered. Will not return and definitely do not recommend.

Took mum here as a pre mother's day meal. Her lamb (most expensive item on the menu) was completely raw. Brocolli hard and not chewy. No apology from the manager....l felt terrible as my Thai curry was actually nice.

Delicious food at reasonable prices.Service was great even though busy.Real shame about the kids running wild at the party but that's down to the parents.

Good atmosphere and the service was very good. Some of the food didn't match the price tag. The Beef Wellington was not worth the price and was very disappointing but then the standard and quality of the burgers were worth every ££Parking: No painted parking spaces and sometimes can be hard to find a free space.

Cosy pub, dog friendly, good selection of beers with guest ales.

Been here a few times before & food has always been great but for whatever reason it was pretty poor last night. Probably had the worst curry & pasta dish we've ever eaten. The pub is lovely so it was disappointing, especially when u fork out £100 for the whole meal, with desserts & drinks. Have they changed chefs?? Hopefully it was a one off bad night for them. They didn't even have fish & chips on a Friday night!
