Pubs in Ombersley

“I have read some recent poor reviews about this pub which motivated me to put the record straight because they are plain wrong. I've been using this place for maybe 6 years now. Pre-pandemic it was a great business, great beer and great food. Then two years or so of abject awfulness with a succession of bad management that really let the pub and its regulars down to the point of it being empty most of the time. Now! Hallelujah! The pub now has a team it deserves. The new managers turned the pub's fortunes around in about four weeks of taking over which surprised me when you consider the neglect that preceded them but they are dedicated, professional and very hard working. The food is excellent and being a local i eat in many of the more decent food pubs in the area so i can confidently say the food @TKA is up there with the rest of them. Its really tasty and completely made from scratch which isn't common. Even the places that say "homemade" often have a bit of ding ding in there somewhere. I can spot no evidence of ding ding here. You can tell the Chef knows his stuff and the Landlady is lovely. Both very professional people. Sadly one reviewer pitched this pub against two other nearby pubs on price range. That is totally unfair. One of the other pubs is a freehold for starters and the other slams you on the price of drinks. However all three pubs are excellent but that was a sh*tty thing to say. One course Sunday roast with drinks at each of those pubs would place The Kings Arms smack bang in the middle unless you are drinking tap water. I think the person who wrote that review should drink more tap water. I have quite a few beautiful and excellent pubs that serve great food within a 15 min drive from my house. They can all do well without crappy and off the mark comments. On a lighter note. The bar staff are lovely also. Very friendly and they actually smile!! And even the bar snacks are homemade. Think British tapas. home made slices of sausage roll and scotch egg or pieces of really good brownie. That's a nice touch if you have been out walking the dogs for example and you have a chicken in the oven at home. Drop in here for a pint and a little bite. Excellent pub now.”

“Great place love it here.Only one person was not very interested in her job today which was disappointing as I felt like l was not important enough to be served. ?However all the other staff were great.Food was lovely and plentiful the atmosphere was warm and comfortable.Parking: Plenty of parking spaces close to entry to pub/restaurant.”
