This hotel couldn’t have been more accommodating. Highly recommend. We arrived late as visiting friends and they were able to delay the kitchen closing to provide food for my son. We had a very restful evening and would definitely come back. Thank you so much :)

Lovely hotel with exceptional staff 

Extremely slow service. Seated at 5:45 but mains arrived after 65 minutes. Not made aware of any specials. Fish and chips only moderate size - very ordinary. Chicken breast was over cooked with luke warm vegetables. Ordinary food at inflated prices.

Not a good experience.

Clean, comfortable and extremely welcoming staff. Had one dinner and although menu limited what we had was excellent. Breakfast cooked to order and very good. Pub is dog friendly which was fine with us.

Excellent place to stay for a couple of days

How was this place ever awarded “the best pub in Norfolk” status, according to the Pub and Bar Magazine in 2023? The bar must be set pretty low!

All eight members of our party were disappointed at the quality of the cooking. Starters were uninspiring … tiny portions and the food cost must have been minimal. Most main courses were similarly disappointing, dry chicken dishes, over-seared/burnt sea bream, over-cooked pork without the described “puff”, all with barely any jus/sauce. A request for additional sauce for the chicken dishes was forgotten until the waitress was reminded.

One bottle of wine was chilled, the other warm. 

The menu descriptions sound delicious, if only the dishes themselves had lived up to them. And based on the portion sizes, were the calorie counts overstated?! 

Once tried, never to be repeated. 



UNDERWHELMING … OVERCOOKED, OVERPRICED, OVER-HYPED

We went here for lunch on our daughters birthday which they asked about when booking.
She was visiting from Australia so we wanted something special.
We were left very disappointed with the experience.
The service was very slow having booked our lunch for 1.30 and got it at 3pm, I think we had been forgotten I had to chase the staff to remind them as they weren’t busy although they claimed they were.
The food was not as menu, the olives were supermarket quality, the gnocchi was questionable and a small portion, the fries were just cheapest quality and not as stated, how do you get skin or fries wrong?
It really wasn’t value for money!
We frequently eat out in the area and have to say this is our most disappointing experience of late, thus we won’t be rushing back.

Disappointing food and service in a beautiful place

Driven past this many times , and liked the look of the place. Needed an unplanned meal and thought we'd try out the Kings Head. Wasn't disappointed!   From a warm welcome, to the lovely well thought out spacious restaurant, this immediately had a good feel to it. wide range of beer and wine as well as a large choice of menus, for kids too! and specials, this ticked lots of boxes for us.

We had a superbly cooked large fillet of steak and chips, kids loved the pasta. Service was perfectly timed and good interaction made us feel valued. Chocolate terrine for desert was amazing too.

we felt relaxed, plenty of space on the table and not on top of other diners.

recommended without hesitation. So good we've booked for a sunday roast in a few weeks, think that says it all!

well done to all the staff that cooked and presented the food to us. Thank you.

Excellent Meal & 1st class service

We stayed 2 nights here. The inn is set back from the road. We found the staff pleasant and the food excellent. The menu offered dishes which were different to the usual pub fare. Our room was clean, tidy, and warm. The restaurant boasts ample seating space and there is a lounge as well if you prefer to just have a drink. There is also seating outside. The breakfast menu was also superb.

Comfortable inn with an excellent restaurant.

Just had a fabulous Sunday lunch with all the trimmings, beautifully cooked sirloin and vegetables were all just perfect. 
Lovely atmosphere, attentive staff and great location. One of the very best we’ve had and can thoroughly recommend

Stunning Sunday lunch

Found this place on the A148 to Cromer.  Lovely gardens and very helpful staff.  Visited twice.  Firstly for a drink where we sat in their large garden.  Staff very helpful and allowed to us to do take as a chair from inside th we on pub as an my husband has mobility issues and struggled with an the benches.  They have an outside bar and kitchen (shack) for garden menu.  The second time we visited - today, we sat inside and ordered food from their a la carte menu.  Again very helpful and pleasant staff.  The food was amazing .  Would definitely recommend visiting this place even for just a drink

Lovely place

Stayed for 3 nights with my little dog. Cassie was very well looked after from the minute we checked in. 2 different rooms- preferred the double facing the back- quieter and quirkier. Spotlessly clean with a great selection of teas/coffee/ hot chocolate. Quality sparkling and still water. Tasty biscuits.

Bathroom toiletries organic and generous. Towels fluffy. Bed linen top quality.

Superb breakfast every morning with free newspapers to read- nice touch.

STAFF
They make the Kings Head what it is; friendly, helpful and they genuinely connect with patrons. Any problem is dealt with immediately and with a smile.

Wouldn't hesitate to recommend this venue for accommodation or a meal.
