Welcome to the Rose & Crown

A Charming London Pub in South Bank

Located in the heart of South Bank in South Brisbane, you’ll find The Rose & Crown.
We’re a proper London-style Gastropub, serving home made food, hand-pulled traditional ale direct from the cask (the only pub in Qld), as well as tap beers including Birra Moretti, Brewdog, Magners and of course, Guinness.

Our menu is small but ever-changing, made using the best locally sourced, seasonal ingredients. The Sunday Roasts are legendary, with traditionally made Yorkshire Puddings, lashings of gravy and all the trimmings. And our wine list is extensive, full of local and international treasures.

“The secret is keeping the informal atmosphere of a local pub, not trying to be fancy or pretentious but blowing customer expectations out of the water with restaurant-quality food.” – Alex

The Rose & Crown is family-owned and operated by the Derricks. Alex, originally from Queensland, spent over 20 years building the gastropub scene across London, the south of England and Wales. Together, with his British wife Bella, an interior stylist, they’ve transformed the heritage-listed majestic Queenslander into a beautifully styled London Gastropub.

“I really want to recreate the famous feel of a good British Pub where regulars love bringing friends to their local and staying up later than they should, having a ball. A true home-away-from-home.” – Alex
