The meal we had was really delicious, very hot and good sized portions. The service was quite slow considering it was not busy in the pub and the staff seemed unaware that the booking on their website takes a deposit for groups over 6 which caused slight confusion when paying however they were all very polite and sorted it out with no issue.

What a lovely friendly comfortable stay we had at The Kings Head. The room was warm and located to the front of the building with a pretty view of the church opposite. The evening meal was delicious and hot, with a speedy Friendly smile from our waitess. We liked that we had fresh milk in a flask for our room.. No continental breakfast available, but an excellent choice for hot cooked breakfasts to set you on your way. Well done Adam, you have a wonderful team.

Stayed the night to celebrate my birthday on Saturday. As soon as you walk in your greeted by fresh flowers everywhere (nice touch) and a warm welcome. Very attractive bar area and snug, perfect for watching the rugby!Our room was huge, with all amenities you need plus a beautiful roll top bath and huge shower if you prefer.Dinner was excellent, it's a beautiful room to dine in. Note to the guy who made my expresso martini - wow!Definitely would recommend this pub.

Subject: A Delightful Reunion and Exceptional Dining Experience at The Kings Head, HursleyI had the pleasure of reuniting with a dear friend at The Kings Head in Hursley yesterday, and the experience was nothing short of exceptional. Having not seen each other for six or seven years, our 65-year friendship was filled with memories, laughter, and catching up on life.The ambiance at The Kings Head was warm and inviting, providing the perfect backdrop for our long-awaited reunion. The staff displayed remarkable attentiveness and patience as we took our time deciding on our order, making the entire dining experience even more enjoyable.For lunch, we indulged in a superb Camembert cheese dip, a delightful choice that tantalized our taste buds. What stood out was the thoughtful accommodation for my friend, who cannot have garlic – the staff went out of their way to serve her a delicious Garlic bread alternative. It truly showcased the staff's commitment to ensuring every guest feels welcome and accommodated.I was particularly pleased to find my favorite non-alcoholic drink on the menu, the 00 Guinness, which complemented the meal perfectly. The staff's attention to detail and dedication to providing an inclusive menu did not go unnoticed.As our lunch unfolded, we found ourselves engrossed in conversation long after the other customers had left. The staff, understanding the significance of our reunion, did not rush or hassle us in any way, allowing us to savor every moment.I wholeheartedly recommend The Kings Head to everyone seeking a delightful dining experience. If their boutique rooms match the quality of their food and service, I have no doubt they would be outstanding. The Kings Head in Hursley not only delivered a fantastic meal but also created the perfect atmosphere for cherished moments and reunions. Thank you to the wonderful staff for making our visit truly memorable.Food & drinks: Both the food and the drinks were exceptional

Lovely pub, great food and service. Have previously stayed at the White Horse in Chilgrove and found it on par. Will return and certainly keep my eye out for Butcombe chains.

Good food, let down by poor service. We felt as if the two young staff members were ignoring us, as it took ages before they took our drinks order then had to wait quite a long time before they took food orders. When the food did arrive, only five out of six dishes were served. We had to find someone and ask to get the final dish served. No one came to check if everything was OK with our meal, and then it took a long time again to get the dessert ordered. Meanwhile other tables had been served quickly. Overall not a happy experience.

We have moved away but I still think about the Sunday roasts here, perfect post dog walk at Farley Mount.
