Sunday Roast at Rose & Crown

[TinkerBelle_325]

Does anyone know what cut of meat the Sunday Roast is? Do they offer you any choice in terms of cooking temperature (medium rare, medium etc.)

We added R&C as a last minute addition to our March trip and we haven't been since 2007.

I know that I want the Potato & Leek soup to start...I can still remember how yummy it was! The roast seems like a really appealing entree. Any other suggestions?

I'm leery of the fish and chips because we usualy get halibut here, how is thye cod? Is there a very strong flavor to it? Thanks!

Can't answer the question about the Roast but I can chime in on the fish & chips. They are great My DH who is not as big a fan of F & C as I am thought they were the best he tasted.(He always tries a bite or 2 of my meal)
I don't think the cod is too strong. When given a choice I prefer cod over the
halibut.
You can get a smaller portion of the F & C at the QS stand at the Rose & Crown if you want to give them a try for lunch.

My DD got the Sunday Roast. I don't recall her being able to specify how it was to be cooked but it could be something I just wasn't paying attention to.

It was quite good but a bit salty.

My 2 cents on the cod - I am used to nice flaky haddock and I found the cod to be rubbery. Yuck!! I know a lot of people really like it but it's definitely NOT for me!

That is my number 1 concern. I'm used to very flaky, light fish in my fish & chips and cod strikes me as a denser, heavier fish, I think it might be more a textural thing than a taste thing.

I see the Sunday Roast looks more like a Pot Roast, kinda odd that it comes with Mashed potatoes AND roasted potatoes

If you are talking about what is in the top right corner... it's actually an onion ring with the "yorkshire pudding" in the center.
