About Kings Arms

Sunday lunch is the reason most families end up here, and it lives up to the fuss — several people call the roast the finest they've had in a pub for years, and two chefs in one party agreed. It's a proper country pub inside: cosy, relaxed, low-key rather than boisterous, with a quiet beer garden that's one of the calmer places to let children stretch their legs. High chairs and a kids' menu are sorted, buggy access is easy, and staff are young, attentive and genuinely accommodating — one family arriving with a wheelchair found nothing was a problem. Beyond the roast, the homemade chorizo and boar pie and the Welsh rarebit get real praise. Two snags: parking is free but the car park fills on busy Sunday lunchtimes, and the menu leans seasonal rather than traditional pub staples. Book ahead for Sundays.
