Staff were friendly. The food was delicious. The only low level issue was my drink. I’d ordered a vodka, lime and soda, but what I was presented tasted more like a vodka, lemon and soda.

We were freezing as our table was next to a garden door frequently left open, our daughter’s main course was forgotten and the food wasn’t as good as on previous visits. Our waitress was lovely though.

Excellent service and fab waitress, Jan. She made sure we had a pick of the tables, was very attentive and accommodating. We chose Steak and Guinness Pie - absolutely yummy and the Chicken Snitzel - delicious..with a glass of Remy and my guest had a pot of tea etc. The portions were superb and the food hot and fresh. New staff came on duty around 5 or 6pm and they were good rather than very good, so we ordered two hot chocolates with crisps and my only criticism is that the hot chocolate was warm and not hot. I like to wait for the drink to cool down a little so we requested it to be changed. It was done without a fuss and returned mildly hotter but still not hot enough. The machine/or drink maker that makes the drink must use cold milk rather than hot as the drink can only be enjoyed in one go as it gets cold rather quickly. This was a disappointment and maybe the machine needs changing or perhaps,staff can use the microwave to heat the drinks up in? We asked for the drinks to be heated up and we were told that there wasn't a microwave on site? Other than that, The Rosendale is a lovely pub with better staff service in the afternoon than evening on today's experience.

We booked an early evening meal with my children and parents and the staff and food were of the highest level. Attentive but Oliver rushing us and cheerful and accommodating they made for a really enjoyable Sunday evening.

The food was tasty and we enjoyed it. We could see the staff were trying their hardest but unfortunately the management here is very poor. First of all we were asked if we'd like to sit on a high table in the bar area even though we'd pre-booked the restaurant so we said no to this and then were seated in the restaurant so not sure what the problem was. We waited over an hour for our main course and we noticed a lot of tables were having the same issue. One large table ended up paying and leaving because they'd waited so long. When my main came out it came without a Yorkshire pudding even though the menu states it comes with one, when I asked they said they'd ran out. My partner's meal had hardly any potatoes so I then asked if we could at least have some more potatoes to make up for it which they did but its a shame we had to ask. We would have stayed for pudding but didn't as the place was so hectic, the staff looked very stressed and overwhelmed so not a very relaxing Sunday dinner unfortunately.

Nice staff, food was ok, vegan roast was just plain cooked rice and lentils in pastry. Super dry and just carb on carb on carb. What’s wrong with a nice nut roast or extra firm marinated tofu?
