text: If you happen to find yourself in the city centre on a sunny day the Rose and Crown is a good place to stop off at for a drink Situated in the centre of Rose Street the Rose and Crown is right in the centre of the city and it is just a short walk from the main shopping street in Edinburgh Princes Street and so it is a convenient place to reach nnThe Rose and Crown serves the usual selection of beers ales wines and the standard selection of spirits and the prices are very competitively priced with a large glass of the house white wine costing less than ua However this pub is fairly bland and lacks in character there is nothing much of note going on in this pub Food is also served here and their menu consists of the usual pub food including pies steak and fish and chips The best asset which the Rose and Crown posses is their outdoor seating area at the front of the pub nnI came here for a drink last summer and it was lovely to sit outside in the sun and watch all the goings on in Rose Street There is nothing in particular wrong with this place but there is nothing about it which makes me want to go back either
