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.

Oh My God! What an amazing pub!…read more The White Horse is among the finest pubs in England, in my humble opinion. Landlords Richard and Caroline clearly strive to please every person who walks through this pub's doors, and to my knowledge they always succeed. The food here is superb. Both the lunch and dinner menus are packed full of delicious options that will never disappoint. As I have told many friends, The White Horse can boast that it serves the best vegetarian option in the area. We regularly come on a Sunday and order the vegetarian option and have yet to be disappointed. A great selection a real ales and good beers the White Horse's wine list is not to be overlooked. I love the Rioja here and have been known to horde the better part of a bottle for myself. The staff are always ready to serve with a smile and a genuine appreciation for their patrons, who are more friends than customers after a single visit. Do not visit England without a trip to Tilbrook to enjoy this pub. It is truly the best Great Britain has to offer!

Just off the A14 it has easy access to Huntingdon/Cambridge or Kettering/Wellingborough. Split between 2 areas: the old pub and an extension into an old barn next door. The decor is contemporary and smart. However, I felt the newer barn area was a little too voluminous and it could have done with breaking up into smaller areas. It felt like we had to keep our voices down to avoid being overheard by other diners. The food on the several occasions I have been there has been good. The menu is uncomplicated yet well thought out - they dont try and do anything too complex. A good selection of meat and fish dishes with some interesting additions such as home made breads. Overall good solid performer. I would recommend if you are travelling along the A14 and looking for a quality lunch and dinner, stop here.

First, we walk in and she immediately knows people and she's only been here a few months. This speaks to the warmth of the community. Second, everyone is excited for the live music portion of the evening. It's very convivial and friendly. We went back into the restaurant to eat and I was so enticed by several items on the menu. My friend and I decided to split a shared board, a sweet potato tartine and a sticky toffee pudding. All of these items made my mouth sing and I felt all my fat cells tingle with delight! We both wished we ordered our own tartine because it was savory... sweet potato, zucchini, fig, goat cheese.... I'm sure other pieces that led to perfection. We then were so grateful we split the tart when we tasted the first bite of the pudding. We substituted the whiskey ice cream instead of vanilla. It was like they were made for each other. I will be thinking of this meal for a long time to come. Beyond the food, they have a lovely and diverse wine list and offer by glass/carafe/bottle. I'm already looking forward to my next visit when I'm in town again.

All the dishes were extremely flavorful and more than ample portions. The location is quaint and something out of a movie or a book with thatched roofs and a beautiful church and church yard nearby.
