A good friend and I meet here about one a month as it’s got a great atmosphere, prices are very reasonable and I’ve never had a bad meal from there in the past few years. The staff are friendly and efficient (especially Kim who we always have a quick chat with).If I had to find a negative it would be the Internet access in there – the phones mobile signal is quite bad so I think everybody is trying to use the Wi-Fi which is horrendously slow on busy periods and sometimes make it extremely difficult to use the app and order food/drinks.(Maybe a computer guru could allow Wetherspoons app to have priority on the Wi-Fi which would really really help)

Brilliant as always. Such good value. Staff, quality of their food, hot and very pleasantly served. Highly recommend The Rose and Crown.

A nice Wetherspoon's.An old pub still going with the usual Wetherspoon's fare but that's why we like them and it was very busy so we weren't the only ones.

I like this pub. It's pretty big and got plenty of seating. There's both quite initmate seating areas and bigger areas that are more in the open. Very suitable for lunch but also good for late night drinks. Prices are very reasonable and the staff is friendly. The general atmosphere is good. The place can be crowded but that makes sense since it's a good pub.

Came for a couple of drinks to finish off our evening. A member of staff was extremely rude and snappy at us. She had a horrible attitude all night and was giving us a horrible moody face too only us as far as i saw. She asked us to leave 35 minutes before closing time as she seemed to want all the customers to leave as they had already done last orders. I do not work in hospitality but if i did i would never ask customers to leave nearly 40 minutes before the time they are instructed to close. The bar maids name was stevie from what i heard of one of the other workers talking to her, i did not appreciate her attitude and her customer service. Next time i return i will be asking for another member of staff to serve me.

For a Wetherspoon pub this was great. A historic building in the middle of the High Street in a very nice little town in East Anglia! We didn't realise it was a Wetherspoon until the menu showed up, so pleasantly surprised. Great atmosphere, friendly and helpful staff, and well prepared food. Everything was top notch for our impromptu day out in Maldon.

Food is a good price, but you get what you pay for, my steak was supposed to have 3 onion rings, but only 1 and 3/4, it wasn't great. My partner food had aluminium foil stuck on the bottom of it, do your staff know how dangerous Ingestion of aluminium foil is !!!!!!!Perhaps Tim Martin would like to reply

For context this was Wednesday afternoon - so customers but not crazy like I imagine Friday/Saturday nights. Great festival alea at a decent price. Good service... Pleasant atmosphere with WiFi - handy if like me just fancy an ale and listen to some podcasts. I didn't try the food but the menu is excellent and from previous experience of Wetherspoons , I'm sure it's decent
Typical Wetherspoons, good value and good food options. Ordering by the app works well. Lots of space inside and some outside. Good location in the high street with Butt Lane car park behind.

Miserable staff. Slow service. The beer might be cheap but this place is soulless. If you're a manager and the bar is busy SERVE people...don't stand around chatting. You're no more important than any other employee.

Nice pub. Great value as always. Disappointed that we didn't get our peppercorn steak and when we asked for it they wanted us to pay extra although it was part of the deal :( but the food was still very nice

One of Wetherspoons better establishments. Has a traditional pub feel to it. Only downside was we were a large group and at last orders a couple of is waited at the bar to be served then the bar person said they were closed. When we said we were waiting from before closing time they said the manager wouldn't allow them to serve anymore. As the 8 of us were all having a 'nightcap' it seems Mr Martin missed out on a few quid there. Apart from that it was fine.
