There aren't enough nice dives in Palo Alto, so I am so grateful this place has stuck around! Its got a nice outdoor section as well as some games on the inside, which is great. Though I have only ever had their appetizers, I've heard good things about their food, so need to try!

I really want to like this place, I really do! It's just so mid! In the most mid way possible. The fact they serve beer and liquor is amazing. The fact that 99.9 % of the people here are Stanford alumni or currently attending is so very depressing and limiting to the kinds of people you will meet. It's just not that great and not that bad :/ Service is solid ambiance/ people watching is sensational, the people are so very boring.....

Cute dive bar feel. Mt friend and I came here because it was one of a dee that served food, but options were limited as it was late. It's standard bar food so don't have high expectations. The drinks were on point and service was good for how busy it got

An institution in downtown Palo Alto. Service is friendly and pleasant. Food is serviceable with nothing that stands out. Lots of tables inside and out. Fills up on Stanford football game days. Great beer selection!

The least pretentious bar in downtown Palo Alto? Perhaps. Do they have Guinness on tap and fish and chips? Oh yeah. And great looking cheese quesadillas (the guy next to me had them), and every other bar menu type food. There's a lot to look at when you're seated at the bar. They have these little doors in the wall that hide various bar stuff. I'd love to know how the place evolved over time. Whenever I've gone, there were groups of friends-regulars, but I always felt welcomed.

The rose and crown is kind of a dive bar with good outdoor seating. I also liked how it had darts. We got a couple of drinks here and one of the cups was dirty hence the poor stars. I like how they have lots of different craft beers here though so that was a plus. It looks like they have good boil maker specials, which is nice. I would come back if they had cleaner cups.

Good beer. But pissed. Saw they had some specials on tap. Drove 30 minutes to get there. But they were closed for private party. They should have mentioned on the web that they were closed. 30 minutes to get there. 5 to find parking. 5 to walk to the business and find out private buy out was in process. 30 more to get home. It's fine to do private but outs; uncool not to mention on web that you'll not be open during normal business hours

Good beers, pretty nice staff, and a good group of regulars. Reading the reviews, I expected the food to be mid at best, but I've actually been pleasantly surprised. Maybe my expectations were just appropriately calibrated by the negative reviews, but I thought the fish and chips were good; not mind blowing, but definitely enjoyable. The place could use a deep cleaning and some general TLC, but overall worth checking out.
