About Rose & Crown

Unpretentious traditional pub with real ale.

Rather oddly for this very up-market area, this is an unpretentious corner local built in 1933 as part of a residential block and still showing 1930s touches such as its Crittall windows. Half-panelled and tastefully refurbished in 2010 with film star photographs and original tiffany lampshades restored, it has a mixed local clientele including Chelsea Pensioners who enjoy discounts. Newspapers, jukebox and pool table are available, and a couple of TVs showing sports.

    Rare ‘proper’ boozer that won’t have you crying at central London prices. Irish and Italian barman were great , left me to chill with my book and didn’t even object when I called him Scottish. Great selection of beers and decent pool table, what pubs used to be.

    🚇 Sloane Square 🍺 £4.80 Fosters ❤️ An excellent cosy and traditional SW1 pub. . Located near Sloane Square at the base of a block of flats you’ll find The Rose & Crown. The nearest Tube is Sloane Square which is a few minutes walk away. . This pub was built in 1869 and rebuilt in its current guise in 1934. It narrowly avoided destruction when a V1 rocket exploded in Sloane Court East on 3rd July 1944. All the buildings around the pub were destroyed. . This is a traditionally decorated pub which reminds me of my pub exploits in the late 80’s and early 90’s. This is a cosy boozer which has a…

    The Rose and Crown, a traditional neighborhood pub in an unexpected setting. Lovely fast efficient friendly service from the lovely cheerful lady Manning the bar. Good beer from the keg and a couple of old staples "Fuller's, London Pride and Sharp's Doombar" from the cask. This place is simple, down to earth and a great little boozer. A proper London pub. Enjoy. I love the Art Deco lampshades, great bit of fun.

    Popped in here on a walk, and now I understand some of the comments about the "bitter barman." The rudest I've experienced in 10 years in London. Won't make eye contact with you, slams the drinks down and rolls his eyes at everyone. Will intentionally avoid serving you even though the place is empty. Made even worse for the fact we paid £12 for two diet cokes. Was entertaining to watch everyone come out of the pub looking stunned at how rude he is and suggesting leaving. Will never go back.

    Closest thing you'll get to a proper old skool pub in the area, great Guinness (landlord knows his stuff Guinness wise) and service that makes me want to go back whenever I'm in the area. Prices are significantly less than the average for Kensington and Chelsea too. Used to be at least one pub like this serving the local working community on almost every street in London, they're an increasing rarity these days, really hope this one stays true to itself and sustainable as a business as it'd be a massive loss to the local community and people looking for the authentic experience of a no…
