We ordered a lot of tapas tonight every dish was lovely and seasoned just right. We usually have burgers and pizzas as we know they are great. The service was impeccable with lots of smiley faces. Efficient timings and the gin menu is extensive. Thanks guys.

Just wanted to say how fantastic the graze box was that we ordered and had delivered for a meeting today from Kings Grazing. We had the veggie box and a Greek salad, arrived on time and beautifully presented. The graze box was full of delicious cheeses, falafel, nuts, chutney, humus, crackers and fruits and the salad was lovely too. Incredible value and local too! Would recommend.

We've just had a lovely meal here. The food is home cooked, easily the best pub in town, and good quality. They are obviously trying to do something different to the standard pub fayre and they have an interesting menu and always have a couple of specials. The beers are well kept, they have a wide selection of drinks, my only quibble is the wine selection could be broader. The staff are polite and friendly, and the overall service is good. I'd avoided this place for ages as it seemed a bit of a locals only bar but I've been proven wrong, it's really welcoming

I was looking forward to my visit to this lovely looking pub, passing through on my journey as was informed they had a pub garden, and were dog friendly, so I could bring my dog with me. It would have been a pleasant experience but the clientele in the pub were laughing and joking with the landlord about their transportation of live dogs which are bred locally, and taken to places for horrible experiments. It was very upsetting and it seems the landlord doesn't want to lose this particular '' regular'' and didn't care about my voicing my concerns. I had to leave with my dog as ruined what should have been a lovely day.

They didn't sell bottled water so I had to have something that I didn't want but they let me have tap water as well. I was impressed that the men's toilet cubicle had a lock and the crowd was brilliant! The karaoke men were lovely but they didn't start on time and they didn't have karaoke books to look through.

Buen ambiente, muy amable y atento personal. El menú ofrece una imaginativa variedad de comidas, junto con las opciones convencionales intercalado. Podemos recomendar encarecidamente la hamburguesa de chili, que era una torre de apetecible de jugoso Burger, bacon, aros de cebolla y salsa salsa casera en un equipaje ligero un pan tostado brioche, delicioso.El sofocante pollo sin duda está a la altura de su nombre, llegando en una sartén de hierro, escupir y silbido y olor maravilloso. Llena de sabrosos, pollo picante, cebollas, pimientos y queso era absolutamente deliciosos. Lo que un cambio refrescante de la monótona comida típica de pub servida en pubs ingleses. No puedo esperar a probar uno de los otros atributos tentadores opciones en oferta!

Llamamos a los brazos de Reyes el jueves por la noche 25 de septiembre por un bocado para comer y tomar una copa. Era nuestra primera vez y no sabíamos lo que nos esperaba, pero nos quedamos gratamente sorprendidas. La comida estaba bien hecha, generosa ayuda y caliente ... estaba fuera de este mundo delicioso! Tuve la casa vino tinto que fuimos muy bien!! El personal era muy servicial y educado. nos sentimos que la gente de Desborough tienen una pequeña joya en el medio ... sin duda te llamaré de nuevo pronto!

Comimos aquí por primera vez con la familia ayer por recomendación de unos amigos que han sido unas cuantas veces últimamente. La comida era buena y el personal era muy servicial. Uno de nuestro grupo tenía el deshielo de pollo que parecía delicioso y la barbacoa mixta también tenía muy buena. Yo diría que probablemente se percibe el black pudding en los platos de carne. Patatas fritas eran encantadores, las que verdaderamente casero patatas fritas para un cambio. Sin duda vamos a volver, ya que está casi en la puerta. Estamos esperando que el chili será una buena elección la próxima vez. Una cosa que me podría recomendar sería para reemplazar la máquina expendedora en el aseo de señoras con uno más adecuado para la familia viendo!

Nuestra última comida familiar aquí (bajo la administración de Montys) había sido estupendo. Esta visita significa que no volveremos. El restaurante no estaba lleno (5 otros comensales) y sin embargo, nuestras comidas principales tomó más de 1,5 horas! La lasaña tenía una capa superior de pasta dura de lasaña de rock que era sólido. Los sizzlers (en sartén) eran muy grasosa y demasiados cebollas y pimientos, la hamburguesa había sido ordenados sin un bollo de pan y vino con uno y las patatas fritas eran bañadas en grasa. Para un jueves por la noche no tenían 3 de las principales comidas y 1 de los aperitivos. También uno de nuestro grupo dijeron que para ayudar a sí mismos de hielo de el cubo de hielo con su mano! En la cima de las damas aseos deberían de haber cerrado. Con una fuga a través de la lámpara gotas de agua en ambos recintos. Cuando protestamos el gerente no nos cobraron por la lasaña y también nos regalaron una botella de vino. Apenas había una disculpa y estos gestos no compensar. Los espectaculares mejoras que necesitan ir muy rápidamente si no van a perder sus habitantes lealtad.

Un grupo de nosotros visitamos para salir a comer el viernes por la noche. Había estado antes unas cuantas veces y fue una comida estupenda cada vez, pero el resto del grupo fueron las primeras que había mucha gente de tiempo. El encargado Monty tenía sólo launchedca nuevo menú y fue excelente. Todos nos eligió comidas diferentes y todos estaban muy bien presentada y sabía tan bien como parecía. Los precios oscilaban entre dos comidas por £12 a £12 todos tenían una buena relación calidad-precio. Si visita Desborough hazte un favor e ir a comer, beber y ser feliz con Monty.

We wanted to go for Sunday lunch so chose the Kings Arms as it was round the corner so we could walk. Sunday lunch was advertised from 12 noon to 5pm so we walked up just after 3pm. There were about a dozen people in the pub with a very bored looking barman. We were told food had finished as they had 'sold out'!! We looked into the restaurant area to see one table of 4 people, all other tables were empty and cleared. There was one table set for 4 with a "reserved" sign in the middle. The hot plate serving area was still on with various dishes covered in silver foil. We'd obviously just missed the coach parties that had eaten them out of house and home, though what the people who'd reserved a table were going to get, who knew? With such obvious bad planning, we may have been saved from an experience we'd rather forget!!

Popped in for a late lunch. You order at the bar and pay as you go. There is a water station where you help yourself to water. Bang bang chicken which comes with noodles. Nice but the breaded chicken was a bit overcooked and the dish a bit dry. Buda bowl was delicious. Lots of seating but also a few reserved tables and the upstairs was reserved for a group booking so perhaps worth booking to avoid disappointment. Will go again when next in the area.
