Having moved to Kent from London we have been trying out local pubs had a lovely meal here on Saturday night booked at the last minute meal was lovely ( shouldn’t of eaten a starter) service was good lovely atmosphere would defiantly return.
On the spur of the moment we decided to go out for dinner, never easy trying to find somewhere thats got a table or somewhere decent doing proper food, on a Saturday night! So instead of going back to one we had been to before i persuaded my other half to try out “the one advertised on the sign” along the A2. So off we went hoping i hadnt made a bad decision.... cos i was extremely hungry.
Well, i must say it was a lovely experience and the food was great. Very welcoming, landlady almost bent over backwards to make our visit enjoyable! Lovely lady. Staff pleasant and helpful. Then we found out that the owners had only taken over about 6 weeks ago. So they were still trying out new dishes etc. Well we enjoyed our meals very much and we will definitely be back.
Great family run pub. Lovely beer garden overlooking the countryside. Delicious food. Friendly atmosphere.
We, my girlie friends & I visited last night for my belated birthday meal. We celebrate all of our birthdays, usually 8 of us but 6 last night.
We like to try different places to eat & we was well impressed.
We didn't have a starter, the main was delicious (a few had different mains) & the puddings were fab.
The service was excellent, couldn't fault it, even when they bought out my birthday cake, total surprise!
The prices are very reasonable. We would definatly recommend your pub & we will be back! Many thanks for a wonderful evening x
My husband and I hosted our joint 40th celebration at the Rose and Crown last night. Paul, Wendy and the rest of the staff could not have been more helpful or better hosts. The buffet food was delicious and plentiful! We received so many positive comments last night and today from our guests we wanted to say thank you and heartily recommend The Rose and Crown to anyone looking for a venue for a friends and family party x
Clean welcoming country pub.
Very friendly staff, excellent Sunday roast dinner, best apple pie I've ever had.

Excellent beer and great bar team!- will be here again!
Lovely food, friendly service, will definitely be back!
I've been here a few times for food and drinks. Above average pub grub and a huge menu. Pricing is very reasonable considering the location. Beer garden is lovely in the sun.
Lovely village pub, friendly staff and a great drink and food selection. Have been a couple of times now for food and have had generous portions, freshly cooked and tasty. Plenty of indoor and outdoor seating, decent amount of parking. We'll be back :)
Lovely pub with a good selection of drinks, nice food and a huge beer garden with plenty of outdoor seating.
We spent an afternoon here drinking cider in the sun, then enjoyed some great food.
The fish & Chips was good, very nice steak burger, and the monkfish kebab was excellent.
Excellent value for money considering it's location
This is my kind of pub. The Rose and Crown is located in a lovely part of the countryside with a nice, peaceful beer garden, a cosy interior, a tempting menu and a great selection of beers. The only problem is it's a bit too far from where I live, despite that I will definitely come back to visit when I can.
Whilst the pub was really busy(which is a good sign!) They found us a parking space and served a really good,reasonably
priced, meal without any fuss and trauma. We will definitely return shortly. Thanks
Drove for an hour to visit, and was not left dissapointed.
The staff were very attentive and friendly.
The roast has to be experienced, it was spot on.
Both of us went for the beef with sides of extra roast potatoes and the obligatory cauli cheese.
The finish on the roast potatoes was crisp,fluffy on the inside and the leeks on the side were sublime.
We shared the cheesecake dessert.
The base was crumbly, this was a masterclass on how a cheesecake should be.
The only thing I could comment on is that the roast beef was sliced really thinly, a few thicker slices would have been ideal.
But all in all, going here is worth the visit.
The staff were on top of everything.
A very well run pub, and it's no wonder it was fully booked.
Definitely worth a visit.
We ate at The Rose and Crown in Lower Hartlip for the first time recently and were really impressed with the food. There was a good selection on the menu and all the meals were enjoyed, lots of nice flavours and cooked to our liking. As the Public Bar was very busy we ate in the Lounge Bar, this also got busy, as did the restaurant. It was really great to see a business thriving after recent years. I would recommend to book if you have a bigger party. I am looking forward to going back to this gem of a pub.
Absolutely lovely pub with great garden views. Sunday dinner was grand... little herb garden at the rear of the beer garden with some great smelling herbs. Great management with a friendly service... soon to be doing different events. But always live music and even barber hair cut and a pint..
Good food, friendly staff. Dog friendly area is a huge bonus.
