The Rose & Crown

Pub dining$$

English-themed gastropub the Rose & Crown occupies the historic, heritage-listed Collins Place in South Brisbane. Since taking over, husband-and-wife owners Alex and Bella Derrick have given everything a very UK vibe, with a white and teal paint job, walls decorated with plates and old-school paintings, and heavy timber tables.

Each bar has 12 taps pouring a mix of European and Australian beers and ciders, including Magners and Guinness. There’s also a Euro-centric 40-bottle wine list, and a clutch of cocktails.

Food is just as important here, with the kitchen producing a menu that mixes British classics with more modern dishes. There’s also a Sunday roast menu that features beef, chicken, and nut roast served with Yorkshire pudding, roasted vegetables and gravy.
