Rose Crown - Fenland

I stayed nearby and visited the town of March, needing to find a restaurant that offered gluten-free and dairy-free options. I came across this pub which had a gluten-free menu, but only offered a roast on Sundays. I inquired if they could accommodate my dietary restrictions (being a coeliac and allergic to cow's milk), and to my surprise they said they could. The chef, who was also gluten intolerant, understood my needs and prepared gluten-free Yorkshire puddings and stuffing for me. However, realizing these were not dairy-free, the chef offered me more roast potatoes instead. When I mentioned my love for roast parsnips, I was given extra to make up for the other items I couldn't have. The chef came out to discuss everything with us, which reassured me that they were knowledgeable about my dietary requirements. Despite missing out on stuffing and Yorkshire puddings, I really enjoyed the roast and felt it was good value for money. The food tasted great and the staff were friendly, making me feel welcome and not inconvenienced at all. Their ability to cater to a gluten-free diet for coeliacs was impressive and I left satisfied with my dining experience.

Lovely traditional pub with great range of real ales. Good food at good prices. The only (minor) downside was that the mashed potato was a bit 'firm '. Very friendly.

A cosy atmosphere with well-kept beer and nice pub food! The ales were fresh and excellent and the food was of good quality.

A local I decided to try out the Rose Crown for dinner tonight since it 's just a short walk from her home. It was one of the most awful meals either one of us has ever had the misfortune to be served. I ordered the battered cod with chips and peas. My friend ordered the salmon with new potatoes and vegetables. My battered cod was mostly soggy, greasy, breading. The little fish I was able to find appeared to be chopped and formed fishy mush. The peas were obviously frozen, and were undercooked. The chips also appeared to be frozen. My friend 's salmon was dry and overcooked. Her comment on her peas was the same as mine. She said her potatoes were fresh, not frozen, and the best thing about her meal was the carrots. The young man who served us came over to ask how our meal was, and we told him the truth about how terrible and disappointing it was. A few minutes later, a woman who did not identify herself came to ask us the same thing, and we gave her the same answer. She did offer to make me something else . Unfortunately, I was not willing to risk it! NO adjustment was made on our bill for the inedible food we were served. On another note, when we first arrived, we both attempted to order wine and a lager. Neither of our choices were available. That should have been our first clue that something was off.

Although I know March quite well I never knew this pub existed. Lovely cosy old pub, good parking.The staff were efficient without being too much. The food was good,tasty and well presented.worth a visit
