AMAZING!!! As far as I remember this place has won pub food…read moreof the year ever year since Ive lived in the area. Super tasty quality food, I noticed that on the menu it even tells you which farm the meat came from, or where the ice cream was made etc. The Greek Lamb and the Gammon are both brilliant. The portions are huge and I'm always left with enough food for another meal but save room for the Holly Bush sundae because you wont ever have a such a selection of tasty locally made ice cream :) The prices are great too, last time I went it was around 30quid for the 2 of us.

Lots of beers to choose from and the beef pie was delicious. The dining area was full, so I grabbed a spot in the bar. Probably better this way. All the staff behind the bar were very friendly and helpful. Lots of seating outside as well. Loved seeing all the dogs having a good time too. I would have to say that my first British Pub Experience was a success!

As we found a comfortable spot to settle in, even the local card players welcomed us. Chatting with Andy from the side of the bar, he made sure to engage the rest of the locals as they spilled in for the afternoon football matches. Never have I enjoyed the company of strangers as I did that day (especially considering that we stopped in for a pint and found ourselves there for 6 six hours)

What can I say about the King's Arms? I'm at home here. When we moved to the UK, honestly our most…read moredesired feature was walking distance to a pub. We got stumbling distance to one of the best pubs in the country. This place is well-regarded by everyone in the region. I've met people here who give up walking distance to their local to drive here and have a good time. That says something. My first night here I made friends, and each time I've been here since I find myself in good company either with neighbors we've met before, or people who know we're new to the area and want to welcome us. I can't begin to tell you how often a quick pint before dinner turns into a long session at King's Arms. I wouldn't have it any other way. These guys truly embrace the concept of being the center of village activity. No TVs, no WiFi, these things distract from the community. You come here to interact with your friends and neighbors, enjoy a good beer, and enjoy living in the company of others. They regularly have events to bring the village out. The most impressive of which was the dinner they hosted on the night of the 100th anniversary of the sinking of the Titanic. They served the exact 10-course menu served in first class that evening, and requested everyone bust out their tuxedos and dresses to mark the occasion in grand fashion. It was a remarkable evening. One disappointment, since I have to list one to feel as though I am being fair, is the wine list. We love the temperanillo, but really none of the others. But we're not here to drink wine, we're here to be social! It makes me a little sad that we don't have this type of drinking culture in the US. If you're not an alcoholic, you're not likely be on a first-name basis with the bartenders at a local watering hole. That's why I love walking in here; everyone knows everyone else, they're always happy to see you, they know what you drink, they pour a tasty pint, and are genuinely good people. I dig it.

It's a bit odd walking in here, because it's had a slightly northern Engliand gastro-makeover, but isn't becoming of a country pub in the middle of nowhere; but when you get past this, the staff are charming, and the food is surprisingly good. They had London Pride, 2 local ales (Beaver), and something else on tap. Recommend.

For £12 per head it was exceptional value. Plain cooking. Only negative is the roast potatoes were deep fat fried. Apart from that the quantity was exceptional, I had: Boiled new potatoes Roasted potatoes Carrots Sprouts Parsnips Ball of stuffing Yorkshire pudding Plus 3 slices of turkey All the vegetables were hot, and not over cooked. The sprouts were fresh and not frozen. My starter was melon, and my sweet was a very hot apple and blackberry crumble with custard. Visit the site for more of the internal photographs. I'd go back, but the atmosphere was spoilt a bit by very loud group of women. They didn't respect other diners, and their wish to able to have a conversation. Then again, it is Christmas.
