“Alright so I am seeing a lot of negative reviews and I’m not trying to discount them at all but feel I must write an honest review. I have not ordered pizza, burgers or fried chicken but I can tell you that the kebabs are absolutely blinding! We regularly order the chicken special kebab, it is around £20 with delivery and feeds two big eaters… it has a ton of very juicy chicken that has a really nice marinade, a load of really nice doner meat, decent chips and certainly one of the signatures here, a good amount of really fresh salad, red cabbage, lettuce, onion etc. Just to stress, some of the reviews mention they don’t give enough food; in my experience they are overly generous, a small doner with chips is even larger than a large at most other places around here. This place is great, they have indeed had issues with quality before and they immediately fixed the issues after a few weeks of receiving feedback. Delivery for us usually takes between 10-20 mins, the quickest (Though we are just down the road) was 4 mins from ordering, straight to my door. It is my go to takeaway for kebabs!”

“Best takeaway ive been to hands down , loaded fries are top tier 100% my go to”

“This pub does not get enough credit as it deserves. Visited today for sunday dinner and oh my god, one of the best homemade dinner we had in Stoke. Think it would help massively if the pub would concentrate a bit more on the marketing side and social media to promote their delicious food. Not quite sure on the pub ownership, it looks independent more than a chain, which it should made it more flexible to promote it a lot more. We have also tried the normal evening menu on a different o as and this has not disappointed either. Very very good and competitive prices considering the market value, the food portion is just over the normal size as well. Desserts homemade too. I wish I could share this experience to more people and hopefully people will visit this place more, it truly deserves to be part of the food awards. The place has a huge carpark and it is easy to find, plus they have a very decent selection of drinks. If you want some good quality food, please give it a chance. This review is solely based on my experience and it is not an ad. The dinners were £11 each.”

“Our family met up with our in-laws from the North West, and this cosy restaurant was the perfect place for our birthday celebration. The presentation of the meals was amazing, and the birthday guests were treated to a lovely surprise cake! A special thank you to the owner, who kindly posted our daughter’s forgotten book back to us — such a thoughtful gesture that really shows how much they care about their customers. We’re so grateful for their kindness and for making our evening such a wonderful experience. We’ll definitely be back soon!”

“I have only just discovered they do breakfast, and it did not disappoint. I had a mega breakfast and was defeated, however fat and happy. I definitely recommend going for a breakfast.”

“Amazing fish and chips, fish is cooked fresh when ordered , friendly staff , clean and fast at serving, has a carpark , good prices with big portions, their sauces are amazing, best fish and chips ive ever had for sure coming in again . Ive had multiple people tell me to come here instead of other places and they were right.”

“Welcoming and good atmosphere. Separate dining area from bar area. Food was amazing, service was great. Nicely decorated.”

“My wife and I have been on a major burger kick and visiting from USA. Saw this so stopped in and they treated us very well. Ordered a donut burger, chicken tenders, milkshake, chocolate nachos, and churros. All top shelf for a very reasonable price. We will be back especially for the desserts. Burger was delicious and all very well cooked food. I’ll give them a 10 out of 10 and highly recommend”

“Been coming here since the firat week it opened in 2018. We come prity much every week. We tried several restaurants in the area and found that this was by far the best. Good curries, good value and good service. Well recommended”

“The Battered Cod was seriously fresh and flaky; it tasted fantastic. The chips were also perfectly cooked—not at all oily. Service was fast, and the staff are really nice. If you want genuine Fish & Chips with some cool modern options, this is the place to come. Highly recommend”

“Been going here for over 3 years now daily, never had an issue with them! If the order is slightly wrong they always resolve the issue almost instantly! Top tier scran and top tier staff!”

“We arrived on an early sunday evening and it was busy. However the host (possibly a manager) she kindly acknowledged me and advised she would be with me shortly. Soon after she returned and was able to accommodate our walk in table request for 3 people and a dog. She was very friendly and welcoming. I think there is just one room where dogs can sit but the room was very pleasant with all the Christmas decorations and fairly lights. Our table was by the fire which was nice and they kindly lit it for us on request. The gentleman who served us was very pleasant and friendly. Possibly a manager ( sorry I didn't get his name) but he was dressed different to the other staff and he was very accommodating getting water for the dog etc. The food was delicious and a decent size, we all had Sunday roasts and they were excellent. Beautifully presented and very tasty. They even kindly let my mum have the kids version as due to dietary issues she can't eat too much. This place has a lovely ambience, all the staff were very friendly and pleasant, even fellow customers were friendly. There was a big table near us that were no trouble and seemed nice but as they were quite drunk they were very loud and even swearing quite a bit which isn't ideal when trying to enjoy a relaxing meal but it didn't spoil our meal at all we just decided to have the coffee and desert at home in a bit more peace :-) We live nearby and having passed by many times we always thought how nice it looked from the outside so we had wanted to visit for a while. I am so glad we finally did and we all said how lovely it was inside and that we would definitely return based on this visit. Delicious food, average prices, lovely, friendly staff and a cosy welcoming atmosphere, what more could you ask for. Thank you to the guy who looked after us so well, he was very pleasant and made us feel very welcome.”

“The food here is delicious. They do great portions and the flavor is impeccable. Service is always excellent with there being friendly staff and they also even bring it out to me when I wait in the car. Definitely recommend for anyone wanting tasty food”

“Best burgers i have had amazing, well recommended”

“Had a bhuna which was outstanding. Biryani which was an actual biryani not just coloured rice. Garlic cheese naan very cheesy and soft. Pakoras best I’ve ever had with a delicious homemade raita. Shami kebab clearly handmade and covered in tikka onions, 10/10. Without a doubt the best curry I’ve ever eaten and I’m probably into a couple of thousand curries at this point. Absolute best takeaway I’ve ever eaten cheers Latif.”

“Can’t rate the food at the Rose and Crown high enough for the cost. Really top notch quality for the cost. I had the large fish and chips, the wife had the small and the daughter small gammon, egg, pineapple and chips. All of the special menu. 3 plates, 3drinks, £45….bargain!”

“Had a massive breakfast, staff were friendly, pub was clean and tidy. Good value for money.”
