We visited on the first day of our wedding anniversary celebrations and were suitably impressed. The service was attentive & quick; the food representative of the 2 rosettes awarded (fish & chips and a burger- the 3 way cooked chips were excellent especially as normally I am not a fan, but today I'm a convert!!!) any criticisms- not really, maybe...

The first Classic Car Break from the Rose & Crown - delighted that you enjoyed both the hospitality and the E-type! Your feedback is much appreciated by the team. The bar is not as big as we would ideally like but perhaps that is some of its charm. I think your comment about serving food in the bar on a... More

A friendly welcome after a long journey puts one in the right frame of mind but we were looking forward to our visit anyway.

We have been staying in Hury, Co. Durham, over the last week and whilst there, stumbled upon The Rose and Crown, Romaldkirk purely by accident and we are glad we did.

We were on an Easter break in Teesdale and had already experienced a great meal in the nearby Crown in Mickleton the previous day.

Everything about the Rose & Crown is excellent. The staff are the tops and most still arrived for duty through the deep snow. During our stay the owners were also in attendance on several occasions making sure all was well. Dinner and breakfast were well above average and the whole stay was good value for money.

I am very pleased to hear that you enjoyed your stay at the R&C even though we are experiencing some slightly unseasonal wintery weather. Shovelling snow saves me having to go the the gym quite so often! I agree that it is nice to have dogs in a country bar so please do come again soon. More
