Rose & Crown
High Wycombe
HP11 2PR
Average Rating: 
The Rose and Crown is a one bar corner local which has survived the redevelopment of the area due to the Eden centre shopping centre. The Rose was my work local for five years in the 80's and was an oasis in the badlands near Desperate Avenue. It was always a solid corner backstreet no frills local with good ale and good custom.
And I was more than happy to find that not a lot has changed in the intervening 20 years. The interior has been done up a bit but it is still a solid one bar back street local with separate distinct drinking and seating areas around the L shaped bar. Three handpumps on the bar and two were going at the time of my visit dispensing Fullers London Pride and Courage Best. It still has a bit of an indulgence on fruit machines, but as my time as a local here coincided with the emergence of video pub games and I spent an absolute fortune homing my gaming skills on Donkey Kong, I will forgive it that.
So, to put it in perspective, The Rose and Crown is a solid local back street pub.
