So sorry for the long delay with finishing up this report. Since I returned from my latest trip to WDW on May 22nd, I've had an extremely busy 10 days. My daughter (who's college graduation we were celebrating on this trip) had several phone interviews while we were at Disney World. She accepted an offer made to her on May 26th for a job which started today. The problem...it is 16 hours away, in Austin, Texas!!
So needless to say my household has been scrambling this week. This in addition to hosting her family graduation party and trying to get caught up at the office after being gone for 10 days. But things have settled down for the most part today, so I will attempt to get my next review written and posted tonight. But first some replies to all of your lovely posts...
What a shame the English Breakfast Burger is/was gone. I don't actually check the R&C menu much (we don't eat there that often as we have plenty of pubs at home so less of an event for us), but that was a winner.
Kind of insult to injury for you that the fish and chips weren't right either, grr.
Love your photos
Yes, I checked the menu again when I was there about 10 days ago and still no English Breakfast burger.
I did manage to have a Scotch egg and a Cider & Black though so I was happy.
Never been to Rose and Crown but have heard a lot about it especially the fish and chips. Maybe on my next trip I'll have to try it and see how it is.
I've always had pretty good luck with the R & C fish and chips. Hopefully this time was just a fluke. If you do go to the R & C, try the Scotch egg. It's really yummy!
Barb I just love your reviews! I have been absent from the Dis for a while (I was part of your live updates in Dec 2012) & after that trip sort of fell off the Dis wagon for a while. I stumbled upon this dining review & instantly recognized your name so I knew I had to follow along.
Hi Debra!
Great to hear from another former live reporter. Happy to have you along for the end of this report and hopefully you will join in on the next one too.
I love that Disney changes their menu up fairly often, but of course as long as the changes don't mess with my favorite dish ; ) Too bad your burger wasn't there anymore. Wonder if they would have served you the new burger with an egg on it? A burger and an egg is a wonderful combo. Speaking of egg, that scottish one looks delicious and right up my alley. Gonna have to try that one of these days. Glad you didn't have to pay for the poor fish.
Agree on the entertainment. RUBBISH to all.
Yes, I agree. The frequent menu changes are kind of a double-edged sword. It's good that they do make changes but it's rough when it's your favorite dish (or in this case, something I was really wanting to try) that gets changed or cut from the menu.
Those Boardwalk Bakery goodies look delish. I wish I could have one of those multigrain croissants right now. So yummy! Too bad your fish&chips weren't as good as they look but it's nice they took it off the bill.
I stopped by the Boardwalk Bakery twice on this latest trip. The first time I had a rather bad experience, but I returned a few days later and this time it was again good. But that story will have to wait for my next dining report.
Everything at Boardwalk Bakery looks delicious! I can't wait for my next trip there. It is such a bummer that Rose and Crown didn't go as you planned.
I was able to visit the bakery twice and the Rose & Crown pub once during my recent trip. Two out of the three were great.
Hope you are enjoying your current trip! I am so so sorry I just saw your response and yes my number is the same
hopefully we will catch you on a future trip! Wow the party for the senses looks soooo amazing!! I want to go at least once in my life to it!!
Hi Lori! I see you have started your dining report. I need to get over there as soon as I do a little catching up on mine. Oh, and with my daughter now in Austin, I might just swing on down to San Antonio sometime!
Interesting - I also ordered the Fish & Chips at Rose and Crown about a week ago while my husband and I were there for our honeymoon. My fish was so greasy I just could not eat it.
I had been looking forward to it so much, too. My husband's banger & mash was good though.
I was hoping my experience was an isolated incident. Sad to hear that the fish & chips might not be the reliable, go-to dish that it used to be.
Barb, you're too much! Are you ever at home? I hope you're having a great time. As always, I look forward to your reviews!
Just got back about 10 days ago and already thinking about when I might be able to go again.
I hope you're enjoying your trip! I'm patiently waiting to read all about it!
Except for the very hot temperature, it was a great trip!
And thanks for your patience.
The nice part of being away from the Dis for a bit is that I got to binge read all of your reviews! You're living the foodie's dream on this trip and it's been so cool to follow along. I hope you're having a fun vacation and looking forward to hearing all about it, too!
This was my dream trip...two weeks at Disney World where I got to make all of the choices. This last trip was a different story. My three kids were in control. Still a great trip, but not quite as great as the last one.
So tempted to try the Scotch egg, but I'm not a huge fan of sausage. It just looks so good!
Hope the trend of undercooked fish doesn't continue for you.
Here's wishing you and your family the best Disney trip ever!
Can't wait to find out where the kids wanted to eat.
They made some interesting choices...most of them good, but some not so good. I did manage to get to a few of my favorites, but was outvoted by the kids on several others. So my next dining report will be a bit different than this one.
Hi Barb...
A huge thank you for the awesome and detailed reviews!
I have been sitting now for about 3 hours reading it and drooling over the photos... not to mention finishing off 3 cups of coffee
and a bowl of snacks!
I really enjoyed the different event reviews and I have to say how much I enjoyed Off Kilter
as well!!
Hope you are having a magical
trip and I am looking forward to indulging in more of your posts!!
Thanks again
You are quite welcome.
I am glad that you are enjoying my reviews. I have a few more to write and post before this report is wrapped up and then it's on to the next one. I hope you will join me for that one too.
I hope you have an awesome trip! I'm leaving for WDW this week, going with my three kids to celebrate Emily's college graduation (she graduated yesterday). If I have any money left after that, I might try to sneak in another trip this year. While a fall trip for the F & W fest would be my first choice, my second choice would be in early December for all of the holiday decorations and doings. So you never know, we might just run into each other.
