The Kings Head in South Derbyshire

Great atmosphere ! Family Halloween party, our grandkids thoroughly enjoyed it and so much effort was made by Adam and Ellen to make us all feel welcome. The pub decorations were fantastic and is was great to see so many people there . A packed pub is what we love to see in the village as it gives a place to socialise and meet up.

Hired the function room Bargain, at the last minute after another venue, let us down with their shocking ways! Helpful. And an amazing function was had by all.

Came here for the England game. What an atmosphere it was. The place was rocking. There were free shots when England scored ( so we only had one) and a free BBQ. What more can you want. The land lord & lady were great hosts and love to get involved with there guests. Cracking gaff this place is. Definitely be back in the future.

We visited Hilton for the first time and chose The Kings Head for Sunday lunch due to the good reviews seen online. The pub was nice inside, a good choice of drinks and the barman was very friendly. Unfortunately the Sunday lunch we had was very disappointing. Mushy carrots, cold lumpy mash and very cold broccoli. There was no flavour/seasoning at all. The roast potato was horrid. The picture attached says it all. We couldn’t eat it so we paid and left quickly, not wanting to make a fuss. Not sure if the food is generally like this or this was a one off. Either way, it let down an attractive looking pub.

Came to the kings head with my family the service and polite staff made the experience enjoyable will be coming back thank you

I and a few other members stayed last weekend in our campervans. The land lady was very accommodating the atmosphere was very good and the beer was good. I go there again and would recommend the Kings head to my friends.

We had a great Sunday lunch at the Kings Head. The staff are very welcoming, friendly and helpful. The food was tasty and plenty of it.

This is one of 3 of our local pubs and this is by far the best pub we’ve gone to, the service is amazing as is the atmosphere, the staff and landlords are so friendly and welcoming. Always had a really good night in here. Sunday dinners are home cooked and delicious.

Great pub. Great people. Great drinks. Best pub in village

Great pub really friendly service and staff best in the village

Lovely little pub in the village , lovely atmosphere , Bar staff are fantastic and, very friendly .. We’ve been twice now for a sunday Roast which was cooked to perfection , Well Done Ellen and Adam , you’ve turned the place around … !!!

Fantastic pub with a great atmosphere! Owners and staff are attentive and friendly, dog friendly and Sunday lunches are amazing!

Lovely and welcoming little pub with classic pub feelings

Lovely 15th century pub with alot of character,Adam and Ellen are amazing they make you feel so welcome,plenty of drinks choice and a brilliant atmosphere, definitely the place to be in Hilton in 2024, can't wait to visit again soon

Such a great pub with friendly bar staff & the new owners are also brilliant! Always some sort of event happening.

Loved my evening at the kings head, staff were so friendly landlady was lovely will definitely be returning!

Best pub in Hilton! New owners are welcoming and up for a laugh, nothing but great times at the kings x

It’s a really nice pub,I had a great time. Good atmosphere, friendly staff. 10/10 Great for families there’s plenty of space if there’s a few of you. Thanks guys

Lovely friendly place, great atmosphere and very friendly staff

Ever since the kings head has been taken over great place great couple couldn’t do enough for anyone helped us with everything we needed for a booking in the function room, well done

10/10 service The new landlady and landlord are so welcoming. The people are so nice always make you feel homely. Defo going back at weekends amazing karaoke

We booked the function room for a surprise party and I can not thank the staff for all they did! Looked after us all night and the atmosphere was amazing! Very friendly pub I would highly recommend

By far the best pub in Hilton. It’s been taken over recently and the new owners are incredible. In such a short time they have really turned it around. I got speaking to the them (new owners) and the ideas they have, I think they will do a great job. It’s very much a warm and welcoming establishment and very family friendly. It’s a must visit if your around in the Hilton area. The Christmas Market was fantastic also.

We had our little boy christening after doe, It was really last minute!!! The landlady was lovely and we could decorate the function room with all the stuff we had taken. It's was lovely!

Good for a quick pint after work, friendly staff and not too many locals crowding the bar so you can't order. I haven't eaten here we always seem to miss the kitchen hours. Bonus points for it being lovely and warm inside the pub on a cold wet day

Food not on owner very rude came to visit again and no one there I would never go here again as tried in a multiple occasions

I visited the kings head on Saturday night. The service was fast, the beer was great and the live band was brilliant! We will definitely be going more often!

Went in this afternoon for a drink, the bar staff were lovely and chatty and the pub had a great atmosphere

Just come back from the quiz night and had a brilliant time! Great atmosphere, good deal on for ciders and really friendly staff. My Partner and I also had the pies which were out of this world! Will definitely be returning again (and hopefully win next time!)

Great community pub, clean, fun and new guy Luke is working hard to improve the garden and car park. Looks great

Visited the kings head for lunch. We had steaks and the food was unreal, the meat was cooked to perfection.

We went for steak night and our meals were spot on! My steak was cooked exactly how I like it and my partner really enjoyed his gammon, all very tasty and service with a smile! Definitely recommend

Went to the kings for drinks with friends & the staff were amazing! They had a band on and the vibe was really good! Will be returning again.

Didn't eat there, just went for a drink and watch em excellent band called Rattler

I went with a group of friends on Friday to see the band, what a great pub! The staff and the atmosphere was unreal!

Really good night having a few drinks with friends, staff were really nice and helpful and the pub had a great atmosphere

Lovely pub with a great atmosphere and very friendly staff, nice outdoor area too!

was driving through this area stopped for dream popped onto this lovley pub highly recommend . if passing though again will stop by .

Very nice evening, wonderful staff especially Zoe who served us. Would highly recommend to a friend.

Went for drinks with friends, such a good night! Bar staff was amazing, music was great! I will definitely be returning on Friday!

Great choice of drinks, lovely staff and lovely atmosphere, will definitely return in the near future with the family again!

I went for a family meal, food was lush! And the staff were really friendly & helpful! I will definitely be returning.

Popped in for lunch recently and have to say just how lovely the whole experience was. The food was hot tasty and good value. We both had scampi and chips and the portions were really good. The staff were attentive and polite and the place...

Great evening out with the family, food was excellent and staff couldn’t be more kind helpful, definitely recommend!

Great food ! We will be back next week ! Great atmosphere and lots fun for kids outside! Something for everyone

We had the most pleasant experience at The King's Head last Friday, 21 July. We had the most warm and welcoming experience and was served immediately by Zoe who was very friendly, attentive and served us with amazing speed. Whatever Zoe gets paid isn't enough...

Great night here last Friday! Was quite busy but quick service and good beer! 🍻

Nice old pub. Friendly bar staff who told us offers. Nice relaxed environment and happy with kids to come in too. Just drinks on this occasion. Lots of free parking.

Absolutely dire selection of beers . If you like run of the mill Stella or Carling then you're fine. No IPA , nothing on hand pump. Just bottles. This was empty and had no atmosphere (on a Friday night!).

we came out for an event that was held at the kingshead on Saturday, such a friendly, well accommodating pub. I would definitely recommended any one that wants a function to have it here.

Had a lovely meal with friends last week. The staff were lovely and the food was delicious! I definitely recommend the steak! We will be returning soon!

It’s such a breath of fresh air to know you can go some where that your young adult daughters and nieces are safe around a fantastic team, Sarah on Monday was amazing and George who works different shifts is just fabulous. The manager, Luke, is clearly doing an amazing job, I’d advise people to boycott the Hilton brook and head to the kings, the Sunday lunch, may I add, is above Marston’s normal standard! 10/10

First time we had been there. Went for lunch, staff so friendly and the food was outstanding. 2 off us had the steak which was done to our taste and it wasn’t chewy. Defo will be going back again.

Lovely food and quick service! Will definitely be returning soon

Lovely pub- first time here! I’ll definately return. Zoe the barmaid was so friendly! Definately made our experience better :)

Great pub ! Delicious food 😋. Defo we will be back ! X

we went for a family meal, i had the ultimate chicken burger. it was unreal, comes with bacon and hash browns inside and gravy on the side and my friend had a steak which was also cooked to perfection. the staff were so friendly and...

Went there for a wake. Lovely food, well presented and lots of it.

Lovely pub ,great food and good choices of drinks! Great atmosphere! Very friendly staff ! Will be back very soon

I went last Friday as they had a band on. The atmosphere was brilliant! Such a good vibe! I would definitely recommend’

Lovely pub and great atmosphere. Nice beer garden and lovely staff.

Visited recently and had such a great experience. Staff were friendly, the pub was clean and the atmosphere was great. We were made to feel welcome and that makes all the difference. Keep up the great work!

Pub was great. Definitely the best pub in the village. Josh pours a lovely pint. Will be coming again.

I recently came up from Devon for a week to visit family and friends. I hadn't been to the King's Head before, but I had heard it was a great place so gave it a go on the Friday night. I was so blown away by the atmosphere, friendliness of the staff and quality of the food that we came back again on the Saturday for a spot of lunch. The burgers were amazing and my steak was cooked to perfection and topped them off with a tasty pudding. It was good value for money and will most definitely make it a regular Pitstone when I come back for a visit. Well done team... keep up the great work. 👍

great pub with a lovely atmosphere, the staff were lovely (especially josh and jody. best pub in the village will be coming again

Visited with my family the pub is very clean and tidy, staff are extremely friendly our food was lovely. We would definitely recommend

Me and my friends popped in for a few drinks to enjoy the sunshine. We were served by a friendly and happy barmaid- Zoe. Very chatty and a lovely experience. Will definitely be popping back.

Really good atmosphere. Quality local with good food and great staff. Landlord Luke is ace and bar staff George and Zoe were really welcoming

Kings head is such a good place to go, the food is amazing, friendly staff & great atmosphere!

Great food, lovely staff and really lovely pub to go to! Can't wait to go back with more friends and family.

Really nice pub. Went in for a drink and sat in their spacious beer garden in the sun. Looking to book a function in the future as I didn't know they had a function room as well.

Great atmosphere & food! Minnie is the most polite waitress I’ve come across!! We’ll be back for sure!

The best experience with customer service I have had in a long while!! Minnie was very polite, knowledgeable about the menu and prompt. Nothing was too much to ask from her and she made sure we have had everything we needed at all times. This kind of service is hard to find these days so we will definitely be coming back.

Great meal out with the family! Fantastic customer service from our waitress Minnie - very friendly and smiley! Couldn't ask for anymore from her!

Lovely village pub with a friendly atmosphere and welcoming staff. A fine pint of Pedigree too!

Called in for lunch today as in the area and had good value pub food. Service very friendly and efficient. Nice to be able to sit in the garden as well on a sunny afternoon.

Great pub, best pub in the village. Great atmosphere, bartenders were lovely and very welcoming

This is a great pub with great atmosphere and staff are really lovely. Always an amazing vibe and everyone is always friendly. I come here all the time and I have never had a bad experience with coming here!

Lovely pub, 1st time visiting with daughter and grandchildren. Enjoyed the food and atmosphere. Will be back!

Well what can I say , what an absolute turnaround for a pub that was dying a death . The new landlord has breathed new life into it , so much that I thought I was drinking in a different pub , beer is spot on and the food is tremendous. All the new bar staff are very friendly and welcoming, truly a pub getting back to its best .

Came for lunch last week after an unfortunate experience in a nearby pub. Food was lovely, service was quick. Will definitely return soon

Good atmosphere with good food and service

We were at the Kings Head on Coronation Saturday and the atmosphere was amazing. There was live music which was awesome and the service and drinks were outstanding as always. Our favourite little pub. Keep up the great work 😊

Lovely polite and welcoming staff, food was great, plenty of choice along with plenty of choice in drinks, would definitely recommend this pub.

Thank you very much , excellent ❤️

Good food good beer friendly staff

Really good atmosphere, great food and very friendly staff

Despite the website offering a full menu and special deals for Burger and a drink on a Tuesday, plus a massive sign outside stating “delicious food served here all day everyday” having ordered drinks and asked to start a tab as we wanted to eat...

Had a great roast here on Sunday. Really pleased with the service, we had Mini assisting us and she couldn't have been more attentive even though they were pretty busy. Will be back here again soon!

Really great experience, special mention to the waitress Minnie who couldn't do enough for us, a credit to the business!

Great village pub, food is great, as is the atmosphere.

Absolutely amazing this place is, live the atmosphere and luke is amazing friendly service will come and chat to you making you feel at home, the place has had so many downs over the past few years, but what he has done in little time...

Really friendly staff, amazing food and really friendly atmosphere. Would recommend the Macaroni Cheese and the Nacho sharer. Will definitely come again !

4 Of us and 2 doggies went for lunch, whilst staying nearby in a cottage for a few days. We were greeted so warmly by the young lady behind the bar. The food was delicious and nothing was too much trouble. We all said we...

very nice. food was lovely. great atmosphere. roast dinner was superb. would recommend 👍 customer service was brill

We had Sunday lunch here and it was amazing. The food was piping hot, tasty and the portions are great. The staff are welcoming and friendly. The Kings Head is highly recommended for a few drinks or a meal. See you soon!

Amazing Sunday lunch! You get so much for your money! Lovely staff! Great place and great for kids too, my daughter loved the food! And also a great play area outside!
