Visited here for drinks with the family while we were staying in Elmsett. I've not laughed like that for a long time. Everyone was very welcoming and instant banter. The staff were very fast and polite and Shaun, the landlord, was a cracking guy. I will definitely be returning here again when I'm in that area. (Only reason I didn't out a food star is I didn't get around to eating here but have been assured its very good)
Symon R Ipswich, United Kingdom 1 Reviewed 1 week ago Wetting the babies head. I had asked Shaun the landlord if he would be able to provide a BBQ and buffet for some of my family members so we could get together and celebrate the birth of my ninth grandchild who arrived on fathers day. Shaun, his sister Sophie and brother Ross were all instrumental in ensuring this event was a plesant experience and I must not forget the bar staff who coped extremely well despite the wrath of a prior event. A wonderful spread of food awaited us, this was not just what i had hoped for, this was much more than that with food spare. I could not have dreamed of such a banquet, fit for meat eaters, vegetarian, vegan and celiac alike, all explained so there was no cross contamination for anyone and special items were cooked on order. The spread was so good and in such abundance that I invited many more people from the pub to partake of the food and not skimp on the portions they gave themselves. Everyone was grateful and full, happy and had a wonderful time celebrating the new arrival and time spent together, obviously the children enjoying themselves in the large enclosed garden area was the main attraction and like the food didn't disappoint at all. THANK YOU SHAUN AND ALL AT THE ROSE AND CROWN .
Since moving to Elmsett we have been to this great pub quite a few times and enjoyed each visit. Shaun and family are great hosts and make everyone very welcome. The food menu is expanding and enjoyable. They have themed food evenings, go there on Thursday as they serve the best burgers.
I moved here one year ago, although I don't drink every week I know what I can expect when I go there. My first visit was a shock, in a very good way, they were friendly and welcoming, not intrusive but polite and curious. I don't think I have been in a pub with such open arms, and it's not just the staff, the local people are just as welcoming and friendly.
This friendly little pub in beautiful South Suffolk hosted a surprise birthday party for my little wife. They were relaxed, calm and nothing was too much trouble. We all had a lovely time! Thank you Sean, Thank you Ellen!

When the doors of the Duke of Marlborough in Somersham, Suffolk, closed on Christmas Eve 2014, it seemed the pub would be lost forever. However, three years and much campaigning later, it's back up and running with brand new owners - the community.
