Rose Tavern

The Rose Tavern is a lovely little pub on the outskirts of the Golden Triangle. Jimmyx does a good job of giving you the lowdown on it’s layout, but it’s also got a lovely outside area which catches the sun well (and with a sheltered area in case you’re a beer drinking vamp). They serve some nice ales, the usual collection of lagers, and have a few nice ciders as well. It’s all well kept and I’ve yet to have a bad pint there.
The food, on both occasions I’ve eaten there, has been good; the steak was fantastic and came with enough chips (with skins on, which I love) and salad to survive the odd snipe attack from my vegetarian girlfriend. The chickpea burger she had was a big boy too, and was nicely seasoned. The prices range between 6 – 9 quid, they have a regular menu as well as a specials board and it’s a lovely place to eat. The staff are really nice, chatty and care about their pub.
It’s well worth a trip to, especially since it’s on the way to/​from town from the Golden Triangle.

The Rose Tavern is situated about ten minutes walk from the city centre and it is a good final pub if you are going on a Golden Triangle tour before you hit the city’s clubs.
The Rose is a single floor roomy pub that is kind of split into front, side and rear drinking rooms. Very popular with sports watchers and gets very busy if there is an England or Norwich City football match playing. There is a good selection of ales and pub food. Once re-​knowned for its Sunday lunch, but unfortuantley just lately the standards have slipped since a change of catering staff, my last visit to eat on a Sunday was not a happy one, hard potatoes and vegetables and burnt Yorkshires for this reason I have had to give it just three stars, if I was to rate solely on drinking and atmosphere then it would certainly be a four!
Sunday Quiz night and DJ Sweetbeats on a Saturday are both popular nights.
