your RESTAURANT

The King's Head offers a choice of dining environments, our Bar dining rooms (where well behaved dogs are also welcome) offer a warm, casual feel surrounded by original oak beams, log burners and colourful locals. To the rear of the bar we offer a little more formal experience with views of the garden and excellent access for those who may be less able.

Above all, the Kitchen at the King’s Head values fresh and local produce, using the best seasonal ingredients all year round. Visitors can stroll around the on-site Kitchen Garden, where the chefs grow fruit, vegetables and herbs to ensure the freshest possible produce directly to your plate.

In reflection of this the À La Carte and Light Bites Menus change seasonally, with a great range of tantalising Starters and delicious Main courses including great “Pub Classics”, as well as a tempting Dessert Menu !
