This is our second visit. The first time Jackie had a very poor Thai curry. Today we decided to give the Rose and Crown a second chance. Jackie had asparagus warped in palma ham. Very nice. When the chap on the next table received his, it had a cheese sauce over it. NOT ours!!! Main course...... I had gammon. Tough as old boots!!!! How on earth do you overcook gammon? Jackie had chicken something. The chicken was inedible. (Cooked some days ago I suspect) The bar staff were wonderful. When I told them that our food was well below standard, they accepted this. It was as though negative comments were not uncommon. Sorry Rose and Crown. That's our last visit.
This is our fifth stay over the past three months and the food continues to excell. Fabulous steak,chips mushrooms onion rings and with 5 beautifully cooked vegetables at the side.Liver and onions with fab mash and gravy wonderful cooking. This pub is the very best for food and selection of drinks and service. A joy to visit Richard his staff and family such a warm welcome.
Called Sunday evening and told there was only one roast left which we ordered. When it arrived however the Yorkshire pudding was black, the stuffing balls were like rubber and there was no sausage or roast potatoes. The plate had just been filled up with rock hard carrots. Eventually they agreed to take it back and supply something else but will never go back
We were in Thurstonland to visit friends for the weekend and we had breakfast evening meals a total of 4 times over the weekend. The food was excellent. The staff are all friendly and organised and the service is second to none. A fine traditional pub with a proper landlord who knows how to treat his staff and customers. If I could rate it higher, I would.

Had a lovely meal at the Rose and Crown, Thurstonland. We were warmly welcomed upon arrival and had excellent service all evening. The food was top notch very, very tasty and all at reasonable prices. Overall a great place for a meal or just drinks. Only down side is parking is difficult but totally worth the hassle. Be back soon.
Such a lovely place to go and eat! We had one of the pods to eat in and it was so very very nice. Food was superb! Staff polite and friendly. Catered for an allergy and a “fussy one” We treated ourselves to desert … everyone opted for sticky toffee pudding and it did not disappoint.
Food still Ok here. I don't know why they are trying to charge an energy surcharge when beer and food prices have increased substantially and energy is on the way down?
Traditional pub with inventive food. Well-kept beer and accommodation at a reasonable price. Friendly staff and idyllic rural setting. Could not ask for more.

Chef: You know what you did. Shame on you. The nice dogs and people helped but really, being surrounded by farms raising the finest beef and you served that.
We had dinner recently. Very good service and a great menu with a number of specials. Tasty food and good value.
