I have eaten here on several occasions and can only say what a smashing place, friendly staff and good food, and a sensible bill and the end of the evening, comfortable and welcoming best describes the atmosphere, unlike a lot of way more expensive eating houses you actually feel you have had value for money, the Steaks are excellent.

We always have a great meal here. It is not haute cuisine but very honest fare which isexcellent value for money. My daughter had the belly pork, she ate every pick of what was supposed to be a childs portion (adult size really) and she's only eight. Homely pub feel with good service in a lovely clean enviroment.

We visited The Kings Head on Sunday 14th April 2013 after booking the table the day before for 12:30. Upon arriving we found plenty of parking behind the restaurant and easy access. We were quickly shown to our table, there were a few people already in but it wasn't busy. There were only 2 things that let our visit down... More

We called here on the off chance of being able to have a meal on a Saturday evening without having booked a table. The bar staff were very friendly, sorted a table for us without a problem. My wife ordered from the main menu ( 1 main course) and I ordered from the Special £17.50 3 course menu. Service was... More

Booked the weekend offer, dinner, bed and breakfast and half a bottle of wine per couple for the Friday evening. The staff in the hotel were very very pleasant, but the staff in the pub/restaurant not as pleasant. Our room was clean and tidy, bathroom adequate. Our evening meals were ok maybe a bit too rich, but the breakfast was... More

We had booked a weekend break but arrived one day early, and were made welcome in every way. The room (no 4 ) was spotless, quiet , and very comfortable with great ensuite bath room. We had planned on staying for a weekend but stayed for 5 nights We ate in the restaurant every night and were delighted at the... More

Booked a table for New Year Eve, should have looked further afield in hindsite. I think that this place has had its day and has got very complacent with its attitude and food quality. The food last night was poor, I ordered the stuffed pork and to be honest it was tough as old boots and actually looked like one.... More

The setting will pull you in since Roseberry Topping is a landmark but the food can't really make up for it. No a la carte so you're forced to order the set 3 course menu which is mostly filler and extremely small portions of meat which was tough...bit of a scam. Desserts look tempting but taste more like cardboard. Service... More
