Superb Sunday lunch. We had the roast beef and the chicken and both were excellent. We are looking forward to our next visit already! Thank you Tara and your excellent staff.

We've visited the King's Head several times and our experiences have ranged from very good to distinctly underwhelming. We went again yesterday evening and were looking forward to a good meal in pleasant surroundings. We were seated and served drinks efficiently... the staff are great! Sadly, there was a group of very loud people next to us... which we accept the venue couldn't really do anything about... nothing outrageous or rude just disturbing. So much so that when that group left, ourselves and four of the remaining tables all commented with wry smiles what a relief that was and how much quieter it had suddenly become! Anyway, on to the food, we had starters which were fine, mains of trout and Aberdeen Angus Sirloin steak. The trout came without sauté potatoes, boiled being substituted without telling us. The 'buttered greens' consisted of three small sprigs of tenderstem brocoli. My steak, whilst well cooked as I ordered to medium-rare, was thin, underseasoned and lacking in flavour. I was expecting rather more from a dish costing £31! As mentioned before, this does fit with a pattern of some inconsistency in the food quality. We do so want to love and support the King's Head, it isn't easy to run a good local restaurant these days, but we do hope that all the food could be elevated to the standard that we know the kitchen can produce at times. We will be back but this can't be our 'go to' place, as we would like it to be, until the consistency improves. We really hope it will.

I have been many times to the Kings Head and every time I do it’s like a brand new experience for my taste buds yet familiar at the same time. The place over the past 5years has been on a constant up in food, service and atmosphere. Recently had lunch with a friend and exchanged stories with an old gentleman who sat and ate next to us and while we were enjoying our meals, the Waitress was very polite to us and welcoming, even had a bit of a laugh with us which shows the moral that is within the building is high. Couldn’t recommend a better place to dine in the area!

I was so looking forward to this, my colleague’s 50th, they all said it was the best pub in Hadleigh. The service was excellent and the atmosphere pleasant.The menu looked good and I ordered a large fish and chips with minted garden peas. My colleague’s orders came out and they looked great, then mine came. If this was large I dread to think what small is. The batter was over cooked, it was chestnut brown colour, the fish was a mackerel colour and it wasn’t much bigger than a fish finger. The chips, all twelve of them were hidden underneath it, with a tablespoon of mushy peas.Why didn’t I complain then? Well I hate complaining and it would have spoilt my colleagues birthday. So disappointing and I had been considering returning for Mother’s Day. Perhaps it was a one off, I’ll try them again when I’m in the area.
Enjoyed my first Sunday roast here—delicious food, excellent service, and a delightful atmosphere. The staff even crafted a special dessert for my girlfriend's 50th birthday. Kudos to the chef and the attentive team. We had a wonderful evening.

I went here with a friend on friday for the first time and we were both so impressed. My friend had the fish and chips and I had the aged angus steak cooked medium rare. The service was prompt, the waitress was attentive and friendly, and the food was so great. The steak was cooked to perfection, a good sized portion and so tasty. My friend said her food was great as well. Would highly recommend to anyone wanting to eat in Hadleigh.
