text: In theory I love Rose & Crown: Good people, good beer, good location, etc. \n\nBut sometimes they fail the service test, albeit unintentionally, due to staff and space challenges.\n\nWhen it's not packed and I can enjoy steady service from the pool room or out on the porch, life is just about perfect. However, if I'm jammed inside with 100 other people vying for the same bartender's attention, I kinda want to take my ball and go home.\n\nSo when you go to Rose & Crown, which I enthusiastically suggest you do, temper your expectations based on how busy it is. \n\nAll that said the food is dependable, the beer selection is legit, and it's an ideal place to check out a weekend soccer match or even Sunday NFL football.
