So this was the first time for my wife and I in Itaewon. We've been in South Korea for nearly 2 years and the idea of going somewhere for a pint that's a bit like home was a nice idea! I'm very glad we did! They've obviously done a lot of work trying to emulate an old style English pub and I've got to give them credit, they've done a nice job of it. Not quite the same but definite A for effort! Most important things though were that the staff were very friendly (something we noticed overall about many places we went to in Itaewon, absolutely lovely) and of course the beer was very good! I've not had a London Pride since I was back home, so that was nice. Oh and 10/10 for the food - another first in Korea! Fish n chips! ๐๐ Chips were good, I must admit I wish they were fat chips like back home but they were lovely! Fish though was the prize on the plate, perfectly cooked, good beer batter, crispy with not too much grease. I know plenty of chippies back home in the UK who don't cook the fish as good as this. So very happy me! Just needed some mushy peas and tartare sauce! ๐ Oh and I should mention my wife and two friends (all from UK also) were very happy with their food. In fact if I come back, I'll be trying the cottage pie!...

Rose & Crown in Itaewon truly lives up to its reputation as an authentic British pub. The moment you step inside, you're enveloped in a cozy, dim ambiance with classic wooden interiors that transport you straight to a hidden gem on a London backstreet. It's lively but not overly loud, making it perfect for catching up with friends. We ordered their signature Fish and Chips and Guinness. The Fish and Chips were absolutely perfect โ wonderfully crispy on the outside, yet tender and flaky on the inside. The fresh fish paired excellently with the tartar sauce, making every bite delicious. And the Guinness, with its creamy head and rich, bitter notes, was the ideal companion to the meal. The staff were also very friendly and provided great service overall. If you're looking for an authentic international vibe and delicious food and beer in Itaewon, I highly recommend Rose & Crown. I'm definitely looking forward to trying more of their menu items on my next visit! A definite...
ย ย ย Read moreI literally just got pushed out by a waitress at The Rose & Crown. I am a black American woman. I came alone after reading the reviews on google praising the authentic British food at this place. The lower level bar seemed full so I went upstairs to check out if it was less busy and I was about to make my way to the bar to see if I could get a seat at the bar. This lady sprung out of nowhere and said and in an extremely aggressive voice and mean face โwe are full, wait outsideโ while pushing me towards the door. I guess I am going to stick to the Wolfhound and the Dillingerโs where they treat their patron with...
