It was our first time dining at The Rosebud (lunchtime ). Initially we struggled just a bit to find the place despite using satnav. But helpful directions from some locals is all it took to find it. We were lucky to find a spot out on the street for parking. It was our mistake we hadn’t requested a table closer to the lovely fireplace. Next time we have to remember to request that. Staff were very busy yet super-efficient and friendly ! The service was spot-on. The wine was great. And the food was really really good. So very tasty with good-sized portions. And definitely value for money. We shall definitely be returning there soon, probably for dinner.

Absolutely wonderful - food was delicious, beautifully cooked and presented. Staff were excellent, my dairy intolerance was taken very seriously and, as a result, I was able to enjoy my meal without any worries. When it came to dessert the waitress was able to reel off a list of what I could safely eat without me having to scour the menu. Well done her!! I was VERY impressed. Can wholeheartedly recommend The Rosebud.

We'd eaten at the Rosebud back in 2018 and had two top notch meals there. Decided to go back for a birthday celebration and were not disappointed. Excellent service, amazing food, lovely place. It's not local to us but was worth the trip. And they take cash which is extremely important.

We arrived about an hour early for our reservation but was able to sit at our table in the conservatory and take in the lovely views and have a couple of drinks before we ate.
Food was wonderful. I can recommend the prawn and chorizo Mac and cheese and the smoked haddock. Staff were friendly and attentive. Our visiting friends loved it, we are lucky to have such a nice pub with lovely food on our doorstep.

Absolutely love the Rosebud I used to go there when I was a young child with my grandad and now my parents live back in the area so it’s any excuse to visit and sit in the garden and over look the salts I call it my happy place.
Food is great, staff are lovely and can’t wait to go back again soon.

It was a great evening! Food was lovely and the staff were great, especially the lovely lady ( didn’t get her name) who was running the bar, and taking orders. We had a lovely table by the wood burner and enjoyed ourselves very much

Very happy with the Rosebud. There are usually 4 in my group. We have a light lunch which is very tasty and satisfying. The lady who is "front of house" is always very welcoming and very understanding if we have to make a last minute change to our booking, because of transport difficulties or family commitments. As is the chef if he has a spare minute away from the kitchen. Pleased that the Rosebud keeps trading in these difficult times.

All lovely. Only slight criticism is the scruffy entrance - peeling paint and cracked panes of glass. Doesn’t inspire confidence unfortunate as the food and service are great but when you are bringing friends from out of town it’s not a good first impression
