Service: 4
Atmosphere: 5
Okay for Children: Yes
Okay for Couples: Yes
Be Sure to Try: Sticky toffee pudding
General tips: There was a sign or a note somewhere saying you can't
request particular tables, and that you need to be done your meal in 2
hours or less. I guess they don't want people lingering so they can
see IllumiNations. Also, if you have to wait for your ADR, you can get
a drink at the stand outside the pub, and bring it to your table with
you when you are called.
TheMouseForLess tips: Disney Dining Experience card Ð saved 20% ($32.86)
Extra Comments: We totally lucked out on this one. I called in the
morning to see what they had open, and we got a 7:20 p.m. ADR. I knew
we couldn't request any particular seating, but I was so happy when
they led us to a lakeside table on the terrace. The timing was
perfect, and we got to watch IllumiNations while eating sticky toffee
pudding and drinking coffee. It really was wonderful.
We really enjoyed our whole experience at this restaurant.
Note for vegetarians; there really wasn't much on the menu, but they
did offer a vegetarian version of the cottage pie that wasn't on the
menu. DD11 really liked it.
Who: Anderson Mic and Jeff, late 30's, and our friends with their 10 yr old DD
Where: Rose and Crown, UK
When: October, 2005
What: Lunch - 2 adults and the 10 yr old had the Cottage Pie (ie Sheperd's Pie) and it was so yummy ! The best I have ever had. The other 2 adults had the Ploughman's Salad, which they really enjoyed.
Approximate Price of Entrees: Cottage Pie $11.99 (child's size $5.99) Ploughman's Salad $12.99

Food: 5
Service: 4 while our waitstaff was friendly, the service seemed awfully slow to me and caused our guys to be late for the beer tasting outside while they waited and waited to pay the bill. And if you are late, you don't get in :(
Atmosphere: 4
Okay for Children: Yes
Okay for Couples: Yes
Be Sure to Try: Stella Artois ale, it's not English but we all really liked it!
TheMouseForLess tips: the salad definately could feed 2 people, it was huge!
Extra Comments: If you are visiting during the Food and Wine fest inquire about the beer tastings outside

Approximate Price of Entrees: 4 Black and Tan beers @ $7.00/pint, Bangers
and Mash @ $13.99, Guinness Stew $15.99 all not including tax and tip
Rate the following (1-5, five being the best!)
Food: 5
Service: 3
Atmosphere: 5
Okay for Children: Yes, childrens favorites such as pizza and fish and chips
are offered
Okay for Couples: Yes, its a fun place to have lunch or dinner and have a
few beers or better yet to watch Illuminations
Be Sure to Try: The Guinness Stew was quite tasty and was served piping hot.
On another visit we tried the Fish and Chips platter and it was also
excellent.
General tips: Sitting on the patio was great, the roof is covered in case of
rain, but if it is humid outside it can take away from the dining experience.
TheMouseForLess tips: The prices are a bit high and portion size could be a bit bigger. If you want to have dinner and then watch Illuminations outside on the patio make the latest ADR available, this is an excellent place to watch the fireworks.
Extra Comments: We ate on the patio and it seemed as if they were
understaffed. It took a long time to get our beers both times and our server only came back once to check on us. Perhaps this was just a fluke.
