"A simple but yet fantastic gastro pub The rose and crown is located in the centre of ulverston. The staff. Polite, helpful and friendly they contribute to a very warming atmosphere and engage well with the locals and tourists The food. I had the king prawn starter with chilli and garlic. Great portion, extremely tasty and great value for the price. My only problem was that I couldn’t get enough of it. My main was the panko chicken burger, the chicken was moist the panko batter was perfect, it came with skin on fries and onion rings which accompanied it perfectly (I declined the slaw and veg). The venue The Rose Crown is what a small town pub should be quiet and unassuming from the outside with a very quaint look to friendly and full of atmosphere on the inside. I can understand why the locals enjoy it Overall I will definitely be coming back and wouldn’t just recommend it to friends but I will be suggesting a visit next time I am here with friends."

"Pre booked a table online as I wanted the table for a family retirement meal for my Mum, added into the comments a request to have a couple of bottles of fizz and sharing dessert for our party (which nobody acknowledged), I called a couple of days before to arrange this and pay upfront, I was told we would have two bottles of fizz and 6 glasses ready for us on the table on arrival we didn 't why? Awkward as then the waitress is coming over asking what we want to order to drink I was planning on surprising my Mum with the fizz. Sharing dessert I 'm not sure if there was a miscommunication between us as when it arrived after the meal I 'd question how many people were sharing the dessert. I 've been to the Farmers plenty over the years for food and it 's always been pretty decent, it 's always a good atmosphere etc. Unfortunately on this occasion the food was pretty poor. Two of us ordered the 'tandoori ' chicken kebabs so bland, I 'd question whether the chicken had ever seen any sort of marinade/spice mix. Rice was tasteless and there was a pitiful number of chips for a 'half half ' portion. Mussels again commented on the portion of chips served on the side tight. Fish dish was small but aren 't they always and the Cajun chicken and brisket meals were fine. A shame overall as like I said it 's always a good atmosphere and it is a nice place interior wise. I wouldn 't rush back unfortunately."

"Not impressed with the poor service and terrible fish received from Chippy bank. The staff serving were very rude and lack any customer service skills. Staff were very snappy in ordering us where to stand to be served. We wasn't the only customers to be treated this way. They serve regulars ok but not anyone new. Very unprofessional and we will go elsewhere in future! As for the food the fish was terrible! If you can find it underneath the concrete mash of batter. They can't be bothered taking the skin off the fish either. First chippy we've ever been to where the skin remains. There was more skin then fish. I gave two stars because the chips were actually ok but don't expect to receive value for money because although the chips were good, they were scarce! We won't be returning"

"Oh dear, I found this place on 17th April and was impressed I wrote a glowing review of their great roast dinner. I also came back several times over the past few months. But today’s lunch was such a disappointment. It was a completely new chef and a very different experience. The Yorkshires were doughy and when one of us asked for a change was told ‘they’re always like that’! No they’re not. The roast potatoes were not crispy. The grave was not as tasty. It was still a passable roast dinner but it wasn’t a great roast dinner. I took a small plate and I asked for more meat than the one small slice I was given, the chef was rude, saying ‘you should get a bigger plate then’ I was only getting it £2 cheaper, and it was definitely such a tiny piece. I won’t be returning until I hear there’s been a change for the better!"
