The Rose & Crown — Restaurant in Tunbridge Wells

The ROSE & CROWN, located at Grosvenor Rd, Tunbridge Wells TN1 2AY, is a pub we visited after being redirected from The Guinea to watch the Champions League final. While the service was commendable, with diligent bartenders and the added bonus of a snooker table, there were aspects that detracted from the overall experience.

The pub's traditional look and feel, combined with large screens, created a suitable atmosphere for watching the game. The ambiance was lively, and the music was decent. However, the presence of some unpleasant locals, including grumpy and intimidating individuals, made the environment uncomfortable.

On a positive note, the pricing was reasonable, and security was present to maintain order. Nevertheless, without efforts to attract a better crowd and improve the general upkeep of the pub, it risks being frequented by less desirable patrons. As it stands, I wouldn't recommend or revisit The ROSE & CROWN until significant...

Food is not served here as far as I know. New landlord has ruined this place, very rude and extremely hostile to anyone he decides he doesn't like, a friend's mum was strangled and manhandled by the landlord with no justification/reason. Staff not trained at all, staff member couldn't even change a barrel as they 'didn't know how' no help from management as they 'were sleeping upstairs' on a busy peak evening when football was on. Toilets made me want to throw up and the drinks tasted like the lines haven't been cleaned in a long time! I won't be coming back and I'm sure that he has lost a lot of old regulars due to his general disrespectful comments and slanderous remarks about members of the public/customers. A real shame as this used to be a good cheap night out. Also I wouldn't play the machines as when you win money it won't be paid out due to whatever excuse is...

I was out last week with my friends and family having a drink and there was this young chap behind the bar and he looking no older then 16 was shouting and screaming! And I must of been he’s mates who was also looking like they where under age! I really don’t know why or how they are hiring underage people I will be putting in a formal complaint! It used to be a lovely pub, I rarely come over to Tunbridge wells and I love the town but there’s been so much going on with youths...
