This weekend we had the great pleasure of having lunch at the Rose & Crown Pub located in the UK pavillion in Epcot. You may be asking yourself; “during the food and wine festival why would they confine themselves to a single restaurant?” The answer is two fold, 93 degree heat and an impending rain storm, not to mention that they restaurant recently launched a new menu.
Our party was Bill, Tyler (our 17 year old son) and myself. Tyler ordered the “English Bulldog” Bold pub fare if ever there was. It’s a split English Banger with a rasher of bacon topped with mashed potatoes and cheddar cheese on a sub roll accompanied by a hearty portion of English Chips. I am fairly certain he enjoyed his meal as it disappeared in under 5 minutes. Though I must admit, he didn’t converse much about it!
Bill ordered the Fish and Chips which our family agrees are the best in Orlando. They are part of the reason we keep our annual passes!
And I ordered a Chicken and Mushroom pie with a side of mushy peas.
The pie was perfectly cooked, creamy without being fatty. Great flavor. Even Tyler liked the Mushy Peas. I think they are an acquired taste, but I have definitely acquired the taste, I love them!
Rather than tell you what I thought of dessert, Sticky Toffee Pudding, I thought I’d show you. If a picture is worth a 1000 words, well, you’ll see.
I always make a stop at this pub whenever I am drinking around the world. Great place with air conditioning to have a brew, some chow, and chill out while hanging with the mouse!
Cheers!
