The Rose and Crown, Stelling Minnis

I used to live in east Kent but now visit as often as I can from home in France,spending two weeks in summer and two weeks over xmas as my breaks and each time in Stelling Minnis.
I`m fussy about my beer and my food and the Landlord more than accomodates that,being the first guy to show me that there is such a thing as a quaffable pint of Flowers IPA and having served us with copious,qulaity and value for money food also.Anyone who states to the contrary must be an envious fellow tradesman .
The Landlord is a nice bloke,with a nice family, who we get on well with and has time for all his clients, bearing in mind how busy he is ,and the locals are what anyone would wish to find in a well run,friendly boozer.Staff are friendly and tolerant,especially as we become less tolerable as the session wears on.
With a well stocked village store and post office next door this is a quintessential corner of Kent displaying how a well run pub can keep a village alive.
