Good choice of beers, interestingly quirky interior and some excellent live music when we visited in October.First visit was great, young lady behind bar was very efficient and friendly/chatty with good knowledge of the beers...on our second visit we experienced a grumpy man behind bar, we were waiting to be served and barman diverted off to serve someone who arrived at bar after us...I rolled my eyes at my mate, at which point the barman said "he was waiting the other side of the pillar and before you, so if you want to kick off get on with it"...so...1. why didn't the man get served while the other side of the pillar2. If barman had said the other chap had been waiting out of sight he wouldn't have appeared to be so ignorant and rude.Maybe barman was having a bad day/night...but in this line of work being rude is not good...should get some coaching from his colleagues.Other pubs Glastonbury we visited provided excellent service, in particular the Riflemans Arms and Who'd a Thought It...King Arthur well worth a visit for beers and music but how enjoyable the experience is might depend on who is behind the bar.N.B. they don't do food, so I haven't rated that.

A nice local pub. They don't serve food. They serve nice local beers, which is a refreshing offering to just having the international usual suspects ?

Very much an alternative pub (not for the stuffy and conservative) we enjoyed the atmosphere here, there was music on the Sunday afternoon/evening with a fire in the fire pit in the beer garden. They had a new comedy night on the Monday night of the August bank holiday weekend. The apple cider was also good. We didn’t eat and I would say not particularly suitable for children.

A great music venue serving craft ales and with a large beer garden -what more could you want? Friendly staff too.No food whilst I was there, but there was a music festival on, so there might be at other times. Not far from all the cafes in the centre of town, so not that important.
Just a great Glastonbury vibe....gtea5 atmosphere in garden, fab gree live music.. Didn't eat there so have no idea about the food. Great beersKid-friendliness: This is not a family/child place in the evening certainly. Have only visited evenings so can't speak for day times.

It was a very good night at the King Arthur for the first 3 hours.We had good music, friendly service and happy fellow customers. Then a drunk male customer became extremely violent - threatening some bar staff and customers and caused damage to the pub door and window along the way.
I was working at the King Arthur at a gig
