The Rose - Deal

Jenna Bukulen

The rose offers a great dining experience, with exceptional starters that steal the show—flavorful, creative, and beautifully presented. Tatare and smoke potatoes were the stars! The mains were solid and satisfying, though less remarkable. The warm atmosphere and friendly staff made the visit even better. Definitely worth a visit! Not sure if there is any parking for the hotel guests as i just visited for the food, there is plenty of street parking available around

We ate at the restaurant on 16th December and based on the other reviews I think I was unlucky. The confit heritage tomatoes for the starter were poorly cooked. There was hard green tomato alongside mushy red tomato. My halibut main was overcooked. At £28 I wish I had sent it back. But we were with friends, and the restaurant was their recommendation. And overall we had a good time so I didn't want to create a bad vibe. The staff were super friendly and the atmosphere was, for a Monday, really good. I take responsibility for not sending back my dishes but the cooking here doesn’t match the London prices. I wouldn’t go back.

Beautiful hotel, very stylishly decorated and the staff are so so amazing and accommodating. The rooms themselves are all unique and quirky, with such comfy beds and lovely bathrooms. The hallways have little treats & drinks available, the breakfast is delicious (loved the granola, coffee & eggs.) We also had dinner one night in their restaurant which was fab.

Deal itself has a great vibe, really laid back and loads of independent stores and everyone is lovely. Gorgeous walks along the beach too. Would come back in a heartbeat!

Food was good but the restaurant was SO loud. An extremely raucous table in the bar area ruined the evening and made it difficult to enjoy our time there. Service was a bit chaotic and brought out our mains before our starters. I feel like for the price you would expect better service and better ambience.

Booked a table for 2 last Monday, had a really lovely time. We’ve always loved coming in for drinks, finally decided to book a table one evening. Food was delicious as expected, for starters we had these crispy potatoes which were on the sides menu, along with olives, scallops and an oyster which i really wanted to try! Starters were really tasty, the flavours and combinations are brilliant! Our mains and desserts were also lovely. I like that the menu has pre dinner drinks and after dinner drinks recommendations. Service was lovely and as always will be coming back to the rose! Forgot to take pictures because the food is served so nicely and its all so tasty that you just forget to! But heres one picture of the dessert.

The Rose was very nice but agree with other commenters that there are a few things that could be changed fairly easily to improve it.
Decor throughout is very lovely but could do with a bit of a deep clean. I think the rooms allow dogs but the pink carpet on the stairs was disgusting - so stained and you could see dog hairs everywhere, just needed deep cleaning. Same for the green bench chair in the dining room, lovely colour but so many stains that you suspect a wet clean could take care of. Our bedroom also had lots of dust in all the corners (near furniture, in the bathroom).
The food was good (we only had breakfast) but the service let it down a bit. We rushed somewhat to make sure we got downstairs with time to spare before 10am, but it took over ten minutes to order our food, and the young man/boy (he looked very young!!) who took our orders seemed to be doing anything but take them (and same for the table next to us). Our room included breakfast but we were handed a menu with prices on, then asked doesn’t our room include breakfast (I think all of them do?). He had to go away and ask this, clarified it did include breakfast, then when we asked what it included (ie two courses) he had to check that again. I would have thought that would be part of the basic training! When we got drinks the day before there were four people in and out behind the bar but the whole process also seemed quite chaotic.
We had to be in Deal anyway that night and I think it seems like the nicest place to stay there, but I think if you’re wanting to do a nice foodie weekend away there are better places in general.

Ate at the restaurant - good friendly service, efficient. I had the fish which was excellent, very fresh. Quite high prices for the mains is the only thing I thought.

First impressions, the decor and vibe is great. Lighting gives the dining room a feeling of quality and sophistication. Service was good and food was delicious. Went back the next morning for breakfast which was exactly as we’d expected from this wonderful gem on Deal High St.
They are also dog friendly so we could take our 2 sausage dogs with us 🙏
