Rose & Crown, Ulverston

this is a lovely olde worlde pub in the middle of Ulverston. while now basically open plan it still has loads of character and separate cosy little areas. very food oriented on a weekday afternoon but great banter prevails in the bar area, which staff joined. I could have stayed here for a while.

This is a terraced Robinsons pub dwarfed by its neighbours with a patio area at the back and a few benches at the front. The pub is in white with black paintwork. There was no tv that i saw and the music was general and at an ok level. The interior has what is now open plan, but was once three rooms. The two snugs, either side of the entrance have had their doors removed - so you could tell they were once self-contained. White walls and white and beam ceiling is the general decor, with a stone floor in one snug and a wood one in the other. The walls had old photos, prints maps and Van Gogh prints on them. They do food, but i didn't eat, so can't comment on that. The service was fine and the place busy with a mixed clientele. The beer; there is the usual tap stuff with Hartley's Cumbrian Way (decent) and XB, as well as Robinson's Dizzy Blonde and Double Hop on handpull. A nice little pub that i had to rush out from due to time - shame that the rooms have been opened out, but that's the modern pub i guess, but would certainly go back.

The Rose and Crown is a really nice looking pub tht is on one of Ulverstons main shopping streets. Once insidethe pub was very nice and had an olde worlde feel to it,there were stone floors and comfortable seating,there were two real ales on the bar and we had a drink of Hartleys mild and this was a very nice drink the other beer was Hartleys XB. We really liked this pub. Pub visited 15/4/1989
