The Rose Crown - Wealden

Very welcoming pub, nice food and friendly staff! I had the vegetable Sunday roast and it was one of the nicest I had in a long time. We were a big group of 14 and ordered our food the previous day. Quick service and everyone was very happy.

Brilliant pub and enjoyable atmosphere Very friendly staff We had roast pork and roast beef Sunday lunches Very generous portions so make sure you don’t have breakfast and feel very hungry Would highly recommend

What a find! We arrived for a Sunday roast today, a first visit as we were staying nearby. We were served immediately by very friendly staff, the service was A1 throughout. The beef sirloin roast was superb and I'd have to say the Yorkshire pudding was the best I've ever tasted!! And I've tried a few and a whole jug of tasty gravy on the side. My husband had the beer battered fish n chips which was also fantastic. A good and varied menu, delivered to an extremely high standard. We will definitely be back. Well done Rose Crown. See you very soon I hope.

This pub was my local for many years 40 years ago when I moved from Tidebrook to Australia Going back to see old favourites can sometimes be disillusionment but it this case it was a joy. Not too much has changed, the shove halfpenny board was not evident, the restaurant area is now a function room but otherwise the place looked great. 8 of us invaded for drinks and lunch a reunion of those I played cricket with in Mayfield back in the day How good to see Harvey’s. So much better than the modern style beers and the fizzy lemonade style they call beer in Oz

After finishing our meal, we expected to be offered the dessert menu and another round of drinks. Unfortunately, no one came to our table and all attention seemed to be focused on the bar, despite it not being busy. Even when a group of three arrived, we were overlooked and not offered any further service. In the end, we had to go to the bar to request the bill, which was given to us promptly. However, we had to wait to pay and ultimately had to do so at the bar. Overall, we left feeling hungry and disappointed. The pub had a grubby atmosphere with a few dead flies and webs on the window. It was also very dusty and in need of a thorough cleaning. While it may be cozy at night with a fire going, it looked sad and shabby in the mid-afternoon. Just because it is located in the countryside, there is no excuse for the lack of cleanliness. There was also a faint odor that might have been from dogs, although we were impressed that they were not allowed in the dining area. It's a shame that such potential is being wasted. Some attention to detail and focusing on the paying customer could greatly improve the overall experience.
