Kings Arms in Stockton-on-Tees

Me and my friend came for a night out ordered the hunters chicken as well as nachos alongside a few drinks and everything was lovely. Bar staff extremely lovely. Really happy with our stay :)

Great venues and such pleasant staff. They catered for a group of 20 ladies. Thank you

Service was a little slow today compared to other visits, the food was good, would like to see more choices on the pizza menu I can recommend the pulled pork and chorizo was hit and tasty with plenty of toppings

Excellent refurbishment. Pity the food quality remains the same. Very average no improvement. Please get a new chef and quality of ingredients. Just been again and I can report that the food I had today was excellent. It's just a pity it was supposed to contain roasted peppers and onions but they bearly existed. Great chicken though and curry sauce. See the pic.

I called the pub to ask if they offered any option for take out pizzas, and they do! The woman on the phone let me know that I could place my order over the the phone with her and then pick it up within 20 minutes to half an hour. She explained that they can do this majority of the time, but the wait time will change based on how busy they are! Absolutely amazing, pizzas were still hot a fresh!

Went for a family catch-up. The place was busy but we managed to get a table. Staff were friendly and although busy still managed to serve with a smile. When ordering food we were told there was a little wait in due to how busy they were, the food arrived earlier than expected and was all hot and tasty. The steak pie was huge although it wasnt packed with meat there was still a decent amount. The pizza looked tasty and was packed with toppings. We will definitely be going back

First time visiting after the refurbishment and boy does it look better, they have brought the place upto date at long last. The food as always was spot on although it would be nice to get the pizza menu changed it a couple of new ones. Highly recommend

Nice pub with a good selection of beers and wines. Basic food at reasonable price and worth a visit.

Big thanks to all at Kings Arms. Good food, a warm welcome. Thanks to Toni and all the team

Yet again great service from Adam and a smashing lunch. Jam roly poly to die for!! Been to this place for lunch on a number of occasions now and the service and food has never changed, always piping hot!

Went for Christmas day lunch, had a 2:30pm slot, were shown to our table which was presented well. The meal was beautifully well presented and very tasty. Staff were very efficient and friendly. A lovely day

Attended boxing day for drinks with my friends,very busy,but staff were & always are fab &very efficient & so professional,

Just a standerd green king pub, nothing to shout about. Had the Sunday roast due beef and turkey. Meat was lovely and tender and very juciy. Veg was a little underdone and tough but all in all taste how it should. Overall £37 for 2 standerd dinners and 2 cokes.

We went for Xmas lunch and although the food was ok, the service was terrible. It took over 3 hours to serve 3 courses. Only served half the deserts we had to ask for the rest. Waited another 40 mins for coffee nothing turned up. A huge lack of comms and leadership

Staff were pleasant and attentive However I feel the prices of drinks are a bit steep

Excellent service, especially Abbie, mark and the assistant manager mr Mcbean. Will visit again soon. Good selection of drinks.

Fantastic place and the quality and amount of food for the three course Christmas meal was outstanding and from the minute we arrived to leaving we were looked after by Ellie very professional friendly and made to feel special thanks again Mark, Bev, Brian and Darren

Staff are always friendly and helpful and the food is great. Lovely menu with plenty to choose from and good deals. Lovely surroundings

Excellent service and food was a good quality. Dog friendly which is a bonus. Dan always make sure my dog is looked after bringing treats and water. Highly recommend. Will be back Have since been back and the food is excellent especially there stone baked pizzas. Visited again and service again was excellent Another visit service wasn’t the usual standards as they were busy, but still got served with a smile. Food as always spot on Excellent service as usual, even though it was extremely busy we still managed to get served quite quickly Took my granddaughter to the Halloween party and she thoroughly enjoyed herself, a great way for kids ti interact Highly recommended Another fantastic visit live singers on a Friday night Matty & Chris are excellent

Excellent visit the singers were really good and the pizzas were the best I have tasted for a while, definitely worth a visit

Went for the Christmas menu but was told I had to order it beforehand so they could order the food in!!! When I booked online it didn't give me the option. We ordered from the main menu (scampi and chips) and it was an Iceland special. McCain oven chips Iceland own scampi and birds eye frozen peas. I could only give them 1 star and that was for the drinks and the guy who served our Iceland scampi platter. Luckily not all Greene King pubs are this poor.

Had a 12' pizza, was lovely, service was great and staff were brilliant

Great food, had the katsu curry, always a great one, staff were lovely and drinks didn't take long to arrive.

Olly Sam and Mark were amazing all night, top quality service and cheap prices

We came for the acoustic night. Olly, Sam and Mark were amazing behind the bar. Quick service and a friendly smile behind the bar every time!! We will definitely be returning! Thanks again guys

The service was excellent but the steaks which we returned once, as not cooked to order, just full of grizzle

Great pub food and quick service

Stopped here for a few drinks Great atmosphere & friendly welcome. We didn’t eat but food looked good. Sport shown, plenty of inside & outside space. Lots of choice on the menu. Vegan & vegetarian options available. Lovely & clean. We will be back to sample the menu.

Our 2nd visit to this Excellent pub, they do 2 for £15 even on a Friday night where lots of pubs are Monday to Thursday only. They have 3 or 4 flavour thatchers on draught that I can't find anywhere else. Warm and welcoming. As a party of 4 we sat in the corner out the way and ordered food and a couple of drinks.... Very reasonable prices. The lad came over 20mins ahead of time to let us know the child in the group had to leave so no rushing about. Definitely somewhere we will be returning to. I would say the car park seems small for the size of the pub and you would expect parking issues but we have never had a problem getting parked.

Went in with some friends to watch the live singer on Friday. David Aryn was amazing to listen to and the bar staff were as friendly as ever. The small plates deal for three for £14.50 is amazing when drinking.

Loverly pub. Pizza is great and freshly made, also a good price for what you get. The staff are friendly and quick service when ever I have been in. My 2 girls love playing in the new play area, the pub now has a big family focus, which is great.

Lovely staff great food great service food great wot more could you ask for and reasonably priced highly recommended nice atmosphere

Had a lovely meal here! The waitress Georgia was really friendly and helpful! Katsu curry was gorgeous! Bar staff were really knowledgeable and efficient!

I like it, its a pub that has all i need, go try it see what you think bet ya like it.

Prices now for drinks is expensive compared to other pubs in Billingham. The service is now poor, especially when ordering on the App. Where pay for it on the App you have to go looking for where your drinks or food are. And also lets you pay for drinks that are not in stock, but no one comes and tells you or apologises. Level of service has gone right down the hill since it’s been done up. Won’t be returning unless the prices are reduced and service is improved

I came in for dinner late on a Friday night and was given really friendly service by all the staff working. The waitress Ellie was quick to recommend the live singers that were on later that night and they were amazing. The waitress done an amazing job recommending food and drinks before recommending the singers which really made our night. Food was amazing, small plates are great for starters, and pizzas are homemade and crispy, and the katsu curry is amazing. Would recommend for the amazing food and even better service!

Lovely meal, everything served hot and well presented. Could not fault value for money. Great friendly staff, nothing a problem. Adam our server was lovely.

Pub setting and staff great. Food little poor re portion size. Chilli chicken tasted nice but limited salt n pepper/veg and chips

Good quality food reasonably priced friendly staff will be going again

Lovely home made pizzas made to order dog friendly great atmosphere

Food was gorgeous and was brought out very quickly. It was reasonably priced and the service was fantastic. Thank you

Lovely food, great staff, nice and clean. Great variety of food and drinks. Excellent atmosphere. Nice outdoor seating area

We were over visiting family form California and we had a family party! The staff were so helpful and accommodating, special thank you to Daniel who made it extra special!

Amazing food! Amazing staff! Amazing place 10/10 would recommend, plenty of choice and great service. Outside areas are unreal for a lovely sunny day

katie leigh langstaff jr. best looking person ever, very good service well done

Good food. Friendly staff. Brillant atmosphere when sport is on. What more could you want ?

The chef that made our food, with the under armour cap on, was perfect. Service with a smile and great new look.

The pub looks amazing since the refurbishment a fresh look with the same amazing staff and some new ones. Food menu is is good and looked amazing. Highly recommend good atmosphere for the football

Best pub in the area, gorgeous refurb, great drink selection and great staff

The place looks amazing after the refurbishment, nice comfy chairs, kids play area. Inside has totally changed with a modern feel. Food was spot on and good value for money glad they are still dog friendly. The place to be to watch all the football action

Excellent food very clean great staff

Propa pub 💪🏽 arlways got footy on tele. Propa grub like pies nd chips. Luv cumin heer to get away from missus n kids n sit wiv the lads 💪🏽🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 to menny goffs for my tayste tho💪🏽🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Food disgusting. Get a descent homemade meal just down the road . Chips from oven, pepper sauce dried up . No hardly cheese in wrap. No dressing on salad just leaves nothing else. I paid the same last evening, and it was for 4 people, and I was in today with 3 people. 🤢 also ordered 3 scoops of vanilla ice cream for my grandson. It came out 2 chocolate and 1 vanilla. They have not got a clue

A fantastic pub looks lush since the refurb, pizzas are spot on and good value at 2 for £15

Daughter went to sit outside for a drink. First thing she knocked a spider egg sac under the table, coat was filled with loads of the cretins. Then the bar person brought out drinks, brought her a glass for her bottle of coke, it was when she went to pour her coke in she noticed bird crap on the inside of her glass, Which was brought out with ice in Needless to say she drank from the bottle and left, Staff are friendly but clean glasses are a must. As for the spider sac 🤢 firewood

Excellent pub to have as your local.

Recently visited and can say is the food is exceptional and the refurb is amazing. Staff are very friendly and attentive. I enjoyed the pie which was cooked to perfection. My wife ordered the hunters chicken which was also very tasty. Drinks were also reasonably priced. Will certainly visit again.

All newly refurbished, a welcoming place. Ordered food at the table and was brought over. Pizza was lovely but the burger could have done with more chips. We love our food, wouldn’t necessarily race back. This place on a Sunday afternoon is probably more suited to a meal out with kids, it was quite loud so no one would hear the kids bickering! There’s a lovely little play area and space for kids to run outside.

Sorry but food not so good for someone trying to be healthy but nice food for other people

Went in for a family party for my nephews 18th birthday. The food was 10/10 the service was brilliant staff were nice and polite as u would say service with a smile and a great atmosphere

I loved it the food was ok and there are some nice people there. Well done 👏

Lovely lunch but spoilt by having a woman come in with dog which promtly crapped in the middle of the floor, couldnt finish lunch after that, decided to leave before it p*ssed up the table leg !!!!

Went for a friend's birthday. Impressed but the refurb but not the prices of drinks. Grand national was on so tv was very loud couldn't chat

Was looking forward to seeing the 'newly refurbished' pub. The pub looks good but on deciding wot to eat we had to change 3 times as they didn't have wot we wanted. So in anticipation hubby's 3rd choice came out which was Gammon, egg, chips & peas. We were gobsmacked!!!! As you can see from the pics the eggs had turned to crisp & underneath was cooked on an unclean hotplate by the colour of both eggs!!! (Ive worked in the food industry). The pictures speak for themselves. My 3rd choice Lasagne as from pics was burnt on top, Soggy and unappealing. My grandaughters pizza chips & beans were the best of all the meals tbh. A lady, whom we think was the manager and served our meals asked if we were enjoying our meals to which my husband informed her why we weren't. She admitted she wouldn't eat the eggs either, but my husbands argument was it shouldn't of been served in the first place!. We proceeded to have a young member of staff patronise my husband collecting the plates say she liked crispy eggs!!! We've always known their food was 'ping food' but not everyone just settles for bad quality food. The manager gave my husband a full refund, however a nice meal would've been better.

Just been in with friends after their refurbishment, it looks like a totally different place, you wouldn’t think you were in Billingham. It is amazing, the staff are really friendly and the pizzas some how taste better. Definitely worth a visit, new kids play area and outside undercover seating, only downside the outside covered area could do with some heating

Since refurbishment All the tables had reserved on which made you uncomfortable sitting on them incase customer came . Food terrible had the hunters chicken it was like rubber and got 10 chips. I was sat under a TV kick boxing was on was not nice watching it whilst trying to Chewing on my chicken. I will not be going back.

1st time been in since makeover. Very impressed with the new look Kings Arms looks amazing. Still the same friendly happy staff and service that you always get here. Food was wonderful as always, mixed grill was spot on well filling the burgers look amazing too. Well worth a visit as its a wonderful place for food and drink and a very warm welcome

We have not been in here before even though we live local. Thought we would give it a go after the refurbishment. Food was cooked beautifully staff were friendly and the steak was to die for. Would highly recommend going if you can.

oh what a change. the place looks amazing. the atmosphere is lush and well the food. even before it came I knew it would be the usual standards. I planned for the mac and cheese with a side of chip and boy did you deliver. thank you to the team at the kings.

Wow what a difference the pub has dramatically for the better. The place was heaving, we did have to wait for our food but it was well worth it. 10 out of 10 will definitely be back

Very disappointed all food cold or just warm took one plate back burger even colder by then

We came here 2nd day after opening, the decor looks great and they have added some booths and different seating areas. We ordered some garlic bread and sides with a couple of drinks, but we were a bit shocked when the £3 portion of chips came out in the picture you see below, don’t be fooled this bowl is smaller than my hand, I counted 14 chips in that bowl. Drinks were lovely, I took the bowl to the manager and she was very easy to talk to, she told me it was the company and the food is weighted that is just how they do it, which i was okay with as they have just followed how the company do it but for the price of everything I was just laughing more than annoyed. We will come again for drinks definitely but DONT GO HERE FOR FOOD (a nice posh quiet restaurant would honestly be the same price and you would get a lot more)

Great new refurbishment, excellent staff and the food was spot on, especially the pizzas! They couldn't have done better!

Just been in here after a massive refurb on the place which makes the pub a lot bigger imho. Food was great, service was great. All new large TV's around the place will be great to watch sports.

Had a pre opening night here after a massive refurb of the place and I have to say they have done a cracking job to the place. It looks amazing.

I went there today we ordered 3 parmos with chips and salad 2 of us had sweet Potato fries which where burnt could not eat mine the parmos where very small and the breadcrumbs on them wphere soggy and not nice to eat what you call salad was a couple of old leafs and 2bits of tomato it was our first time and it will be the last when l told the member of staff all she said l am sorry about that no more to be said

Good place, atmosphere on a weekend is great and food is always nice. Pizzas are 👌

Excellent food and a great atmosphere and service with a smile from the staff we will be going back soon. It was great value for money as well

Great pub. Excellent choice of drinks and food.

Nice pub the kings, gets busy at time but the food is generally a good standard.

We visited the kings arms a few friends and my self the food was really good but it always is. We went for a girly night out food and drinks, the atmosphere was amazing Toni and Dan came and spoke to us made sure all was good. We stayed for the dj the rest of the staff were really good too. Will definitely be returning.

The kings arms is always a reliable place to eat, the food is lovely like normal and the staff are always really welcoming, Ollie and Saul to name a couple that stood out, never get let down by a trip to the kings love it and will be back again soon! Thank you

The best pub I've ever been too, Adam wood is a very talented chef. Olly McBean is the best on the bar too the best service I've ever had.

Brilliant place to eat and drink, our server Saul was very friendly and took care of us and olly’s Thursdays quizzes have became our weekly tradition.

Lovely inside, friendly staff and excellent festive fayre Christmas dinner. So much food. Top notch.

Proper Pub, only had time for a pint will have to visit again for food 😀

Very happy staff. The guy on the door came in to let us know our taxi had arrived. Excellent service.

This place stinks of dirty oven smoke... the smell engrains itself into your clothes. Somebody really needs to clean that pizza oven out. And stop burning the pizzas

Lovely atmosphere. Staff are great and very helpful. Toni is lovely and Ollie and Hannah always make you feel welcome. ❤️

I go in here quite a lot for lunch. The sunday roast is to die for. Staff are very polite and will do anything you assist you. Toni, hanna & Oli are always very helpful when we are in there. Could do with possibly a guest ale on from time to time instead of just having green king IPA all the time.

The staff is lovely especially Toni kind and welcoming environment with delightful bubbly personalities and alcohol, however the quiz master olly is one of the rudest bad men I’ve ever laid my eyes on, would recommend to a friend

Always a warm welcome at the kings Highley recommend the hunters chicken Great service from Ellie and Dan

Great food and amazing staff, amazing atmosphere, highly recommend the chicken strips and chips and the triple chocolate brownie

Kids attended Halloween party really enjoyed it food was spot on for picture with sully the character definitely would be back thank you again to all staff

Good and reasonably priced food and drinks.

Came for the Halloween party and there were not enough seats so we had to sit the other end of the pub away from the kids were we couldn't see or hear them, the food didn't taste very nice and the kids were bored because there wasn't much there, they then brought out a character which they made all the kids get together and all adults take a photo of not just their child but of everyone else's child too then they took the character away, leaving some children upset because they missed out as the character was only out for one group photo and my children couldn't get a photo they wanted because they couldn't get in the group photo due to autism and not being able to be on everyone's else's photo which are most likely going to be on social media!! I will not be coming back here.

Popped in for a working lunch. Pizza was excellent.

Excellent service food and atmosphere. The pizzas were banging! Our waitress Toni was excellent. Will definitely return!

Fabulous food, pulled mushroom chilli was delightful , blue burger and fries delicious, worth the visit xx 😋

Went to the Kings Arms for dinner a few days ago and the pizzas didn’t disappoint. Loads of different options to choose from, including a vegetarian option so everyone at the table could enjoy pizzas together. The service stood out with all the staff being very friendly and helpful, even recommending their favourite pizzas when we struggled to make a final decision. Even with the busy service from a Thursday quiz night the staff never failed to come and check in with our meals and offer us fresh drinks. Ellie was a stand out, recommending for us to do the quiz while we enjoyed our desserts. The Disney quiz done by Olly didn’t disappoint either. Thank you to all the staff for making our night so enjoyable and we will be back soon.
