“Stumbled in almost by accident, being in need somewhere to eat - and what a jolly piece of luck that patience ran out outside The Kings Arms. Cheery welcome, super menu of 'typical' pub food, hearty fare. There was a Pie of the Day worth …”

Customer Review Summary
Reviewers most often single out the burger, with two calling it the best they have had, one saying it beats anything eaten before. Sunday roasts come close behind, praised for generous portions, lots of vegetables and loads of gravy, and a few mention booking ahead for them. A camembert starter, a homemade lasagne with chunky crispy chips and a fresh side salad, and a Pie of the Day also draw praise, and the desserts are called equally delicious. The pub is described as a lovely old place with an open fire, a lively friendly atmosphere and a back garden, and several mention a warm welcome from the owner and staff. Ales on hand pump are called well kept, though one reviewer would like to see a local guest ale. One notes that parking out front is now restricted. Several note the pub reopened under new management, and one diner who had been turned away from a fully booked sister pub was directed here for a refuel after walking the old walls.
