Yes very happy with the service and the food was very good will done price was ok we were all very happy with everything thanks stephen
Great roast dinner (beef & pork) & children’s fish and chips was a decent size. Desserts were very tasty and the service was good too.
Excellent atmosphere for our celebratory occasion. Slightly slow service at the end but very pleasant and congenial throughout. Food good . An increased range would have helped. Steak too expensive.
It was a Monday night so very quiet, got served quickly for a change. The green curry with summer veg was one of the best I’ve had!
I was disappointed to find there was no Harveys ale or Apricot chutney. Our table was sticky not 'shiney' clean and quite unpleasant to have food served on. The staff as always were welcoming, pleasant and attentive. Again the pie crust was black and crumbly in places as over cooked even though I had made a polite request not to burn it when ordering, as it was on the previous occasion
Great food, good service, lovely decor and atmosphere. Perfect for a Sunday Roast and very accommodating for babies and children. Really easy to book a table.
Service very slow, not enough staff working. We had to go up to the staff to ask if we could order food & drink and then had to go & ask again ‘please can we have our drinks’? The pizzas were very good.
The service was unusually slow for lunch and the pub was not overly busy. I have generally had a positive experience in the past so it may have just been a one off bad day. The food when it did arrive was enjoyable as usual.
Very good food but the tables had not been cleaned properly and were very sticky and dirty. Good service. Too crowded as well. Overall ambiance was a bit too manic.
What a lovely pub Had a great lunch, good food,ambience. Staff were accommodating Good service and prices Would recommend and will definitely go back there again
Very attentive staff. Tasty food. Great roasts. Can book very far in advance over the phone, had a great christmas meal here. A must eat!
First visit to the Rosendale. Nice welcome from staff. Attentive waitresses. Good choice on the menu as well as specials. Great food and drink. We will be visiting again.
great pub and amazing roast. Good atmosphere and friendly staff
Recently went to the Rosendale for dinner. While the service was not bad, I just think it could have been better, it wasn't busy and the waitress only came over when called to, we were asked for drinks the moment we came in so weren't ready but then she took another 10 min to get back to us to take the order. The starters were taken away without being asked, one plate still had food on it, they were obviously in a rush to bring mains as these came straight away, as they had obviously been sitting there for some time as my iberico pork chop was dry and over cooked. The rest of the food was good though and there was a nice ambiance in the restaurant.
Very tasty food, lovely service, local gastro pub at its best - and bottle displays that appeal to my OCD tendencies in their symmetry. I’m going to miss this place when I move
Pizzas were excellent but halibut dish overcooked and over-buttered. Sunday roasts looked good coming out (but pricy!). Nice building, nice outside space but stick to pizza if eating. The rest seems overpriced for what you get.
The Rosendale is a warm and welcoming pub with great food and bar staff to match. We are regulars because it is the sort of bar that you want to keep returning to.
We visited your establishment for the first time on Saturday evening 9th June, 2018. It was a dull, cool evening and the main double doors and a side door were left wide open. This caused us much discomfort due to the draft circulating around, the restaurant area, though we were seated to the rear of the room. This probably benefitted yourstaff as they were busy attending to your customers. We enoyed our meal which was well cooked and the service was to a reasonable standard. We objected to the "Optional Service Charge" of 12 1/2% being added to the bill, which should be based on SERVICE and not on the total of the bill. We hope you will consider the comfort of your clientele and review your billing layout and method of billing your customers in future.
Really nice restaurant with a good vibe. Always nice food and a good selection for restricted diets. You are also able to have a selection of sides as the portions are really good.
Delicious food with decent portion size. Service was friendly and efficient too. It was our First time there and we will definitely return another day.
The pub is clean the food is great the staff very friendly an helpful fantastic atmosphere. Relaxed an enjoyed date night with my partner. I will definately be going back here its a perfect place for large group's an parties .weddings etc New menu is fantastic i think in hit weather they shoukd bbq outside .
Had the Steak and ale pie it was flavoursome, it was seasoned well and packed with meat. I have always enjoyed the Rosendale’s family experience.
Went there after 8pm for dinner and it wasn't too crowded. The late bird menu is very good value and the food was nice too, will definitely go back again.
Fantastic Sunday lunch sat outside. Excellent service. Can only book indoors, but plenty of space outside. Had delicious pork belly with loads of veggies. Highly recommend.
We love the Rosendale, it is our local but don't have shellfish on a hot day! A crab starter was definitely off. It is very well run but a boiling Sunday Bank Holiday weekend might have been the proverbial straw and camel's back!
Lovely food, the steak and ale pie was delicious, ditto the apple and pear pie. Nice atmosphere. Service good and friendly staff. Really nice evening.
Not the best, used to be a lot taster. Staff are young and inexperienced. Food was tasteless and not as fresh. I don’t think we will be back
Our Sunday roasts were good but the adult burger my son ordered was small - the children’s version minuscule and dry. The verdict of both my kids was let’s not come again ...
Great food, great value and excellent service in this lovely venue. My folks don't like pubs but took an exception to this place. Delicious pizzas with tasty bases and decent portions even with a Taste card.
Great family atmosphere, wonderful roast beef dinner. The fish was only OK. The 'kalamari' starter wasn't kalamari - it was squid. The dessert custard was watery. Wine too indifferent to be that expensive. But will go back for the beef!
Very limited choice on the menu. When we decided to order from the specials board, we were told those items no longer existed, which was rather annoying. The food that did come was bland and very dry.
I love the Rosendale for it's convenience and choice of food - their Sunday roasts are one of the best! However, the menu last night wasn't as inspiring as it is usually. I had a special from the board - pizza with capers and salmon. This was delicious! My companion had a salad, also from the specials board but unfortunately it was dreadful and poor value for money
Fantastic selection of beer and wines and reliable food at reasonable prices. The service is fast and efficient with friendly and helpful staff. Highly recommended
The best roast in Herne Hill / Dulwich. They were Very accommodating re gluten free options. Good for toddlers and kids. Also, they have good coffee!
We waited over an hour for food and although they took some money off the bill. The service was poor to say the least, I also requested for them to leave a happy birthday note on the table for the birthday guests which was ignored.
Messed up our meals by giving them to another table so we had to wait around 40 minutes for our food. We were given a discount off the bill though.
Evidently very popular, because quite busy even on a Tuesday evening. There was a limited menu because of work being done in the kitchen, but all our meals and starters were very good, as was the service.
A bit too bright and too many kids around for a Sat night but good service. Service and food was good. Nothing fantastic but good.
It was awesome! Food was delicious, staff very friendly. Would definitely go back again! Super nice to see several spirits from Adnams on the menu!
Very slow service (restaurant was not even full.) Main course was disappointing - goat cheese crostini of which the bread was limp and soggy - it also tiny for a main course. When it arrived I immediately ordered chips to bulk out my meal, but they arrived way after I and my party had finished. Staff nice, but service slow and food disappointing, especially for vegetarians.
The five of us enjoyed great food and friendly service In a relaxed atmosphere. We will definitely return for another meal in the near future.
We haven’t been to the Rosendale for a while as the food was disappointing last time we visited. However this visit didn’t disappoint. Becky was great and made sure that we were really well looked after. The food and drink was really fantastic and we’ll definitely be back.
Waited 15mins for a waiter to take our order, thought there were many just wondering around not busy. The food was very bland and not as good as previous visits. Not a good Mother’s day experience
Excellent Specials; sea bream with beans was delicious. Service was swift and friendly. It was a nice touch to offer mothers a free glass of prosecco for mother's day.
Great dinner, although our veggie gravy was quite watery, they fixed the issue with a smile. Always great service and friendly wait staff. Thanks again!
Nice food selection and good service. As always the presentation of the food was really nice and they have very good portion sizes. A good spot for a family meal.
Very efficient and friendly staff. Varied and interesting menu. Enjoyed the food. Quite cold in the restaurant tonight during the cold spell, with some diners keeping their coats on.
The restaurant was very cold. I know the weather is very cold at the moment, and I appreciate it's a tough place to heat, but they need to handle it - perhaps bring in additional heating. The service was slow, even though they weren't busy. The food was ok for the kind of place it is, and it's reasonable value.
Food was good but it was freezing, we did ask for the radiator to be turned up a couple of times, but were told it took 4 hours! Disappointing.
Great for a relaxed Sunday Lunch with family and friends. Good service, food is fresh and clearly made in house , specials change and tend to be seasonal
