| Not been here since it became 'Ye Olde' but went yesterday because there was a beer festival on. Pleasant pub with pleasant staff and pleasant customers. will definitely return on a normal night to see how it is. TiaMariaJim - 18 Sep 2011 14:07 |
| Errrrr.....hang on, oftenscore6 - you can be a finalist without actually winning the final (that's how the Cup Final works, for example). Thus with the Rose in the years in question. So I don't quite see what your grouse is. E17Bee - 5 Sep 2011 21:37 |
| Bar staff were good, as was quality, though expensive. There were 5 beers on, though I can't believe it's the best range in London, particularly as there were 3 Northern blonde beers on at the same time, plus Hogs Back TEA and West End Bitter - nothing dark at all. What I didn't like is the misleading advertising outside this pub which implies that it was a finalist in the CAMRA pub of the year 2009 and 2010. They clearly know it wasn't as they make the point that they won the 2011 East London pub of the year - in fact they appear just to have been a losing finalist in that competition the 2 years before, a far cry from the national acclaim they purport to. oftenscore6 - 21 Aug 2011 20:35 |
| Well, I've been drinking in the Rose several times a week for over three years, and godson's waspish description is by no means an accurate reflection of what the place is really like. Compare his comments with the others on this site, consider the clutch of awards the place has picked up since the present regime took over (most recently East London CAMRA Pub of the Year) and draw your own conclusions.

| The bar staff look down at you in this pub. Parents bought the pub for daughter, and she swans round like she is the Queen. Was in their over the winter, a disabled guy left so their friends held the door open. regulars and barstaff then proceeded to shout and scream at them for keeping the door open and being slow! Expensive drink, walls, carpets, tables, not been cleaned since they bought the place. Might now serve a selection of ales and attract the pretentious village crowd, but its still one to avoid, unless you like a pretentious crowd who pretend thye are not from walhamstow... godson - 29 Jun 2011 21:43 |
