The food is excellent, there is a great varied menu, the staff are knowledgeable, lovely relaxed atmosphere. My wife loves the craft Gin menu! This is one of our favourite restaurant/pubs in the area. Highly recommend the Kings Head

Very pleasant service from the staff, all well presented. Nicely presented menu with yummy sounding choices - really want to have the Madeiran Espetada next time. The steaks we both had were good, tasty and filling. A very minor feedback is to move the wording of the menu saying what a Steak is accompanied by from the bottom of the page to immediately beneath the steaks and before the 'extras' like the scrummy Shropshire Blue topper please. If anyone wants to read that as a complaint, you are very much mistaken.

The staff were very friendly and attentive, even the drinks were brought to the table. Portions were a little on the small size but as a cheaper lunch menu, not bad. Recommended for a very nice meal.

Fantastic evening, organised and stressless! Starter and main was beautiful and tasted amazing, never fail. Catered for a party of 11 that was last minute so didn’t preorder and succeeded without a delay.

A well put together menu with well cooked food and good atmosphere. Friendly staff always willing to assist. A Hook Norton Brewery pub which lived up to the brands reputation for good beer

Excellent food and good service. Steaks were slightly overdone (medium was well done and well done was really well done) but other than that very nice place to eat. Intending going back next week.

Lovely staff & great omlettes. I also love that they do not cram the dinning tables in, which gives both space & privacy. Dog friendly too which is fab!

Steak was cooked as requested but was Chargrilled and tasted burnt. When raised with the Manager she did remove it from the Bill and said to request pan fried next time

Great 'summer addition' of a range of 'salads' on top of their usual excellent menu - but, beware the portion size is huge! Do not be afraid to ask for a 'doggy bag'

We were a party of 8 celebrating both my 50th and my daughter's 18th birthday. A very pleasant evening was had by all. The food was amazing, the service excellent and the atmosphere wonderful. Thank you to the staff for looking after us - even the surprise icecream scoop with a chocolate happy birthday and a candle for both of us :-).

Excellent food, however the service was very slow due to being understaffed. We had to request dessert menu and request to order desserts. Sadly this let the experience down.

We had a lovely evening here to celebrate our daughter's birthday. I hadn't realised that, in addition to their normal menu, it was a specialist burger evening. We all decided to select from the burger list including our daughter who is vegetarian. She now lives in America and she loved her "veggy" selection. This is the third time we have eaten here and every time has been a great experience.

So pleased that you brought back the Salmon and Crayfish Cocktail. We missed the horseradish ice cream, but it is sooooo much better than the salmon mousse starter.

Welcome was very good, service was very good, food was very good and the departure was very good. What more can you ask. 8 of us eating had 7 different main courses all brought to the table hot, at the same time and clearly freshly cooked.

Sunday lunch at the Kings Head tres magnifique as always!!! Have visited here quite a few times and never disappoints. The meal is as near to a home cooked meal as you can get without the disadvantage of the washing up. Best Sunday Lunch in the area for miles around and we make a round trip of sixty miles so I think that says a lot. Keep up the good work and please.........don't lose that Chef!!!
