The King Arthur in Mendip

Excellent pub. Friendly people. Bar staff are great, except one who clearly has a huge chip and problem. But that is your problem. Be a man or be a woman, but don't be hating everyone else.

Still the best place in Glastonbury for live music. As a pub however the experience has deteriorated over the last year or so. The beers on cask and keg are always running out and very little is available after the weekend. Prices have also risen quite steeply and with food no longer available and the pub is understaffed it is a place in decline in my opinion

Great pub for live music and a good pint. Plenty of events going on throughout the year, from open mic to comedy, from live rock band to DJ sets. Something for everyone.

Interesting pub with historical themes close to the town Centre. The King Arthur is definitely worth a visit if your in Glastonbury

Staff extremely rude. Not much choice of beer

Popped in for a drink and sat in the large outdoor area to rear, lovely atmosphere & some nice artwork

Great pub. Only get to Glastonbury once a year and the first pub I go in is this one. Nice atmosphere. Plenty of nook and crannies to dwell in.

My favourite pub in Glastonbury, big garden with interesting mix of people and music

We visited to watch our son play in a band, really friendly welcome from staff when they greeted us and great venue We didn't have a meal , because of the gig

Fantastic. Thumping music. Fantastic bar staff. Wonderful. Didn't eat. Just went to enjoy and relax

A great gig pub where you can get close to the bands. Beer and service is great too!

To play a few pints with the natives

Great pub, good selection of beer and cider. Beer garden is good.

Lots of characters esp in beer garden. One bloke thought he was Byron and started reciting. Half of customers were off their heads

Great place, really friendly, good cider

Love it, thanks for the service, tumeric latte

Good beer and a great atmosphere.

One of the gems in this world :)

Really great boozer with a far livelier atmosphere than other pubs in town. I was on my own but the staff & customers were wonderfully friendly to me. A must visit if you're in Glastonbury, especially when they have live music on.

Beer ok. Ambience ok. Service ok. Guess that means it was all ok. The music is loud and the soft seats are comfy. Yep ok.

Beautifully poured pint one of the nicest Guinness Ive tasted for a while.

A friday night quick drink out in town. Very buzzy and sound of gig in the back hall well insulated from bar, well worth visiting whatever age.

Stopped for a quick pint before a meal. Was a great place to come with the dog.. Very dog friendly. Bit limited on indoor seating. Lots outside though! Good beer selection. Has lots of character.. Not your standard boring country pub.

Maybe we visited at the wrong time but we found this pace to be expensive, dirty and cold. Not sure if we'll return 🤔

Great pub, good choice of drinks. If there is music on in the back room on a weekend, it is usually very busy, but a fantastic venue.

Was just a pop in.. immediately relaxing

Great live bands, staff are wonderful, and the beer choice is fantastic 👌.

Good beer, nice surroundings, friendly service.

Super beer garden and a real old pub. Not to be missed.

Great local pub very Glastonbury..

Lovely pub. Proper beer (Proper Job) and good music. Great evening out. Jan 24 just had a make over.

I was working at the King Arthur at a gig weekend

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 pillar 2. 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 🤗

This is a great pub, but just as in my last review from Feb. 23, it is not currently serving food apart from some filled rolls. If you are a cider drinker, ask at the bar for Wilkins. It is stocked, just not on public view.

definitely going to back here, open mic night, mid week, aiming for a weekend next time.

Great pub lovely big back garden, with a fire pit .

Dodgy pub, dodgy people, dodgy vibe. Avoid.

No food!, but friendly place to have a pint and take in the local scene!

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.

The locals pub with live music every friday Beer garden is lively

Great music venue. Friendly staff, nice garden with fire pit.

Live here now use it when out for a beer it's still a good night out. Check up their website for live entertainment. Beer good and at a fair price. Staff excellent

Great time with friends ! And special with live music.

Lovely pint and good atmosphere 😁

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.

Nagyon jó Guinness sört ittunk,igazi jó Pub.💯💯👍👍

Great pub, great drinks, fab service

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 beers

Went to see hubby's son's gig. Music was do loud it's deafening! Lovely woman staff helped get chair for hubby, next to the stage.

Great place to spend an evening

Great place, great people, great music

Staff is nice n it was usually fun but there can b some whacked people there 💀 , remember when I was 6 or 7 and this man managed to get onto some of the roofs n someone had to call the police ,wasn’t allowed outside staff member was at the door stopping anyone going out thankfully

Amazing atmosphere Very welcoming and and very friendly people I will visit again

Great atmosphere, lively and colourful 👌

friendly Good atmosphere Nice pub garden

Rough and ready! Enjoyed the cider. Sat outside with the firepit.

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.

What a cool little pub Boo aka harmarny was especially pleasant to chat to Will definitely come again

Great beers, lots of atmosphere. You can find some great bands

Lovely pub. Great garden with and open fire if your lucky

Great evening listenning to the excellent Bad Cowboys

The King Arthur continues to be a good pub, but it should perhaps be removed from the 'restaurant ' category as it does not seem to be serving food at present - perhaps food will resume in summer. and some other real ciders. It is a well-run pub with an eclectic clientele and a music focus, and serves the excellent local Wilkins cider. I'm not generally a fan of recorded music played in pubs but at least the KA is a music pub so it makes sense here, and they seem to choose better canned music than most.

Good pub with excellent Wilkins local cider.

Real ale, pool table, music and garden. Lively older demographic. A lot going on in this surprisingly large back street pub.

Best pub in Glastonbury. Live music a bit hit and miss

A pub that has so much character and charm with loads of local history stories. Very friendly.

Went here for the Kozfest Xmas party. The bar staff were very friendly and there was a good range of local beers as well as the usual brands. There was also a burger bar out the back which served excellent meat and veggie burgers and hotdogs. Lovely pub!

"Staff are friendly" sure, if you look and act just like them 🙃. Bigots.

Regular gigs happen here. Nice vibe. Here's omega tribe

A proper old school pub. Nothing fancy just how pubs used to be. A great selection of ales and beers and ciders to try. And a brilliant barman that seems to be the soul of the place. We spent far to long here when we should of been exploring Glastonbury lol.

Fantastic venue, great sound engineer and the lighting engineer was top notch! Hope to play here again soon! (The videos are of Drallion and Grove Warden for anyone interested)

Great pub with good atmosphere and fantastic barman 👍

Great beer, craic, music - the best-way to go! Keep her lit Gemma!

Great little music pub, warm and welcoming to all

Great for live music but it looks like it needs a good scrub and paint job ,the bar staff weren't particularly friendly ,it seems to just be a rough and ready drinkers pub ,it wouldn't be my first choice for a night out.

Amazing place good atmosphere. Gemma was friendly and a delight to talk too

Awesome old pub with a casual vibe about it. Alternative-looking kinda place (although when we went in they were playing dodgy rave music! But I don't think it's always like that). Stone floors, big garden, good drinks selection. Some cool looking alternative types in there. Not much parking but it's just down the road from the town centre anyway. Lots of events on. Would highly recommend.

Leider kein Essen... Für meinen Geschmack die falsche Getränkeauswahl, zuviel Cider, kein vernünftiges Bier...

Gluten free beer and friendly service. Recommended.

Una pista de baile perfecta. Buen ambiente. DJ fantástico.

Excellent staff great music very friendly

Had a quick drink her yesterday bit off a wait at the bar but loved the bear gardan and the general vibe off the pub will return

Great ale choices and beer garden

Slightly off the main thoroughfare The King Arthur is nicely tucked away affording the opportunity to have a good pint in a relaxed atmosphere. For us it' has the feel of a good locals pub with a nice relaxed vibe and a good selection of beers. Highly recommended. The garden murals are incredible.

Glastonbury's premier hippie/crusty pub with shabby chic and a warm welcome (!) Great music nights - could have a more imaginative ale selection though..?

Sehr schöne Kneipe mit Gästen jeglichen Alters und Types.

Interesting place, interesting people!

Always a great visit, chilled and relaxed and great place to hang when visiting Glastonbury

Fantastic venue, friendly staff, good music and large garden area

Busy pub, excellent music venue.

As mentioned, the female manager and her associates are unnecessarily confrontational and hostile... They seem to get a kick out of it

Fantastic venue, friendly staff, wide range of products, good entertainment. Lots of very friendly locals but not made to feel unwelcome at all as a visitor. Highly recommend as a place to visit

A little gem brilliant outside garden at the back plenty of space inside and band area

Amazing spot to have a dance and socialise, pretty building too. Friendly staff and dogs seemed to be allowed, which is always a guaranteed 10/10 🌞🙏

Nice beer selection, the inside could have been slightly cleaner, seats and tables seemed a bit grubby, the outside area would've been nice to sit and enjoy the sunshine except everyone out there was smoking, so couldn't stand to sit and be engulfed in that.

Groot assortiment aan dranken. Een inrichting zoals je van een pub zou verwachten. Sowieso een fantastisch systeem met bestellen en gelijk afrekenen. Buitenom naar het toilet, geweldig. Bij mooi weer kun je in een redelijk grote tuin zitten.

Lovely Pub garden and locals. Jon was amazing the the taps for novice cider drinkers and tourists

Checked out the house of commoners here last night , great time great band great bar.

Nice atmospheric pub, nice beers and ciders on draft. Friendly staff. Nice murals in the back.
