Rose & Crown Restaurant invites you to their dining room. Their atmosphere has been described as family friendly. They are open late all week. You can get there by car.
We've been here a couple of times for fish and chips and were pleased with the meal. Oddly enough, coleslaw is additional cost but I guess it means less waste if some people don't eat it.
Not a very big restaurant but apparently popular based on how full it was the last time we were there.
Service was adequate but not memorable.

We were impressed by the reviews on this site, so when we were invited to suggest a spot for dinner, we brought a British ex-pat and a British visitor to the Rose and Crown.
We left slightly disappointed, although it was an acceptable meal.
My fish and chips (standard cod version) was very good, although the chips were a little under done. Personal preference would have them a little more crispy. The fish was very good though, with a light crispy batter.
My wife had the "Chicken Wellington", and although she enjoyed it, it was NOT Chicken Wellington...it was chicken pot pie.
The food was okay, it just wasn't great as some here have professed it to be.
We asked about the trifle dessert, but they use canned whipped cream instead of the real stuff so we declined.
Oh, and they use canned peas too...would have preferred frozen.
Like I said...not bad, just not as good as some have said.
If you like real fish and chips, UK style, this is the place to be. The 'regular' size is plenty big enough and the large size.... well, it's huge.
Always friendly and fast service. Food tastes perfick.
I suppose if I had one gripe it would be that the tea bags used are the tasteless US/Canada variety - please get some quality teabags or I'm bringing my own in future!
There's also a great little shop there which sells all kinds of UK favourites.
The servers here were absolutely wonderful. Service was prompt and very pleasant. The chips and garlic bread were delicious, but I didn't like my chicken wellington. I've never had it before, so it may just be that I don't like chicken wellington, not necessarily that the quality wasn't any good. I don't know. Very good place though and will definitely be back!
