Went for a music afternoon on Sunday, was OK but not much choice of drink which is strange for a pub. Band were OK, had to leave after an hour or so though as we had to get back home.

Jonathan and the team are well organised. It's a very friendly pub mainly used by locals. They do a cracking Sunday roast and serve local beers and some local wines. Very friendly and safe

Classic. Loved all the books and the veggie options. Great cider too.

Karen Powell

Our first visit to the Queens Head first impressions "quirky" looked alot more inviting once inside .One young lady doing bar and running the food hope she appreciated .The food was worth the wait all home cooked and great prices. Pan fried Haddock with baby potatoes and green beans £13.Drink prices were reasonable as well.

We went for Sunday lunch which I must say was very nice but unfortunately we had to sit in what I think was pool room which was not very clean. The decor was pretty poor and the toilets were bad too

Came for an evening meal on 13th November, the menu was very limited and we were told that only chunky chips were available with the main meals. I ordered the pork loin with mustard sauce and baby spinach.When the meal arrived it was not what I expected - it was a pork loin CHOP which was obviously fried and the oil was also on the plate - so a big puddle of oil, small-ish chop, a mustard sauce which looked like it came out of a packet, chunky chips, and few leaves of baby spinach. The chips were ok, the rest was not.I finished the meal, and did share my feedback with the person who served us, who said he'll pass it onto the kitchen.Normally the kitchen would acknowledge the feedback and perhaps apologize or offer a discount - but nothing happened.Overall very disappointed with the meal and lack of customer service.Food & drinks: Horrible meal experience - see comments above.

Had Sunday lunch here and it was so delicious. Home made Yorkshire puds and home made apple pie.We will definitely be coming back here again. The best Sunday lunch in a very long time ❤️❤️
We stopped here for a drink and a couple of games of pool. Service was friendly and prices were the cheapest we had on our stay in Rye. We liked the pool table as these are becoming increasing rare.

This is a very quirky pub that I didn’t personally warm to. But it has a good rep locally, especially for its standard pub grub, and a lot of people like it, so perhaps the problem was that there were not many people in on this early bank holiday lunchtime and I wasn’t eating. Maybe it has a different vibe when there’s a crowd in of an evening. You enter onto the front section of a U shaped bar. To the right is a slightly elevated section dominated by a pool table with some standard keg fonts. The the lounge area is to the left section of the bar which has four hand pumps on it at the far end. For the record only two of these were in operation with Lakedown Brewing Sussex Pale and Lister’s Brewery Happy Hound. I tried both and they were in good condition, but I was surprised by the Listers Happy Hound that was described as a traditional session ale on the pump clip and turned out to be a dark mild. It’s in this section to the left that the fun starts decor wise. I would say that the chosen decor style is junk shop / reclaimed skip. I’m sure other more knowledgeable people than me will have a more accurate description for the eclectic mix of furniture and artwork that abounds in this place. To me it just seemed to be a competition to see how many different seating styles and table styles you can fit in one pub. For example I chose to sit by the window and my table was made out of a lump of concrete that had a lump knocked out of it so that you could see the reinforcement wires and that the concrete was inlaid with coloured stones. I just sat there thinking why ?. But this side of the pub keeps on giving and has a full on Tardis effect. As well as the front and back sections on the left hand side ( with a smallish courtyard garden beyond these), there is what looks like a further room between them. However, you enter to find that it turns right into a corridor with a doctors library effect going on ( including a medical skeleton) that after a while leads to a Tudor effect dining area with gable ceiling. And here again, the game seems to be how many different types of dining chair can you fit in one space. To be fair this type a junk / antique style is the same as employed in the Waterworks micropub further down the road. But whereas there it seems to fit and work, here I just got the feeling I had gate crashed a hippy commune.

A great pub to spend a few hours having dinner. Abit off the busy road but very recommendable. The Pub has a great atmosphere inside with many different corners to sit in. There is also an outside area too. The staff are very friendly and the food is excellent. The whole place is kept clean & the toilets are clean too. A good experience overall. ??
