Have visited many times before, recommended to many friends but last night it seemed we were not really wanted. First no drinks order taken after being seated at the table. Hardly had menu and waitress was hovering, knew we were waiting for another person, came back every few minutes to ask, so in end we ordered.Food was excellent as usual. Asked for sweet menu and asked for extra time to see if last person caught us up. Constantly being hassled for order, plates and glasses taken as soon as you laid down your utensils, do you want you bill straight away. Almost ushered out. We had not seen each other for over 18 months and wanted to sit and chat and take our time.Very disappointed.

Highly recommend! What a little gem to come across. Very friendly welcome with exceptional service throughout our stay, nothing was too much for the owners and staff to do. The food was top notch, with fresh local ingredients all cooked exquisitely, with a faultless 3 course evening meal and breakfast the following morning. The room was very clean and well presented and could not be faulted. The only minor issue was the poor WiFi connection however this did not bother us, but may do other people. Will certainly be returning and can’t wait!

Went for a Sunday roast with my sister. Such lovely food and a real family feel. We had a slightly older waitress who strangely made us feel like we had done something wrong from the moment we sat down. We are only 24 and 18, and were really looking forward to our meal, but even asking for sauces seemed like it was too much and to be honest I struggled to work out what it was all about. The young blonde waitress who brought us our drinks was so lovely, and I watched her working so hard for her tables, Smiley and accommodating. Definitely an asset to the kings head, I’m sure if she had been our waitress food wise, I would have felt very differently. The desserts looked just as amazing as the mains but to be honest by this point We felt uncomfortable and just opted for getting the bill. I work in the pub business so I do understand it can be stressful, it’s just a shame it had an effect on our experience. The food was lovely, and the building is cosy and clean and I noticed a great range for vegan/ veggies which is so hard to find in Norfolk!

They had Covid protocols in place throughout and all staff adhered to these at all times.

We have just spent 3 nights at The Kings Head. It is a beautiful old pub which has been sympathetically refurbished to the highest standard whilst retaining its mediaeval features. The accommodation is superb, comprising of a large bedroom with very comfy bed, and a spacious bathroom. The food is also excellent - even though they do not serve food on a Sunday night or all day Monday, they offer to order a takeaway meal from local establishments, delivered to the pub, which we think is above and beyond, We had a very warm welcome from everyone - Danny & Jenny (the landlords), Sally-Anne, Bella, and Meghan (and others in the background) - who cannot do enough for you. They made us feel so welcome and were all very friendly for the duration of our stay. The locals are also very friendly and chatty. We will definitely return - one of the best and nicest places we have ever stayed. We had planned to stay for just 2 nights and move on elsewhere for the 3rd night, but we decided we could not find anything as good as The Kings Head so stayed for another night - we are so glad we did.

We were a party of nine in for lunch, the service was excellent from start to finish. With a variety of home cooked dishes there was something for all tastes. I had the Steak pudding which was superb, but everyone in our party thoroughly enjoyed their meal. Although there are tables in the bar to eat we had a table in the restaurant which had a great atmosphere with sensibly spaced tables. The attention from all members of staff was spot on and we will not hesitate making a return trip. Highly recommended.

There was so many lovely choices on the menu and specials board It was seriously hard to pick one dish. We were a table of 9 , the service was excellent, all meals came out together,and was so beautifully presented, no sitting about for hours waiting for it to arrive. One of the best, if not the best restaurant/ pub meal I’ve had for a long time. Will be making it a regular haunt.

Roast and dessert coming to £14 each, very good value for money for the quality and service we had. And looking at the rest of the menu, can’t wait to go back to try something else!

Visiting relatives in the area, we needed a beer before bed time, a good nights sleep, and a classic English breakfast to see us on our way home. We were not disappointed! on arrival we were warmly greeted and shown to our room. What a delightful surprise. One of six rooms recently refurbished, it was a tasteful blend of the new amongst the old exposed beams (and an oak pillar in the middle!). We went down for an excellent pint of bitter from a classic Norfolk brewery before retiring for the night. The shower room was clean and modern, and the shower itself was hot with plenty of water. The bed proved to be one of the most comfortable ever slept in; a most comfortable night's sleep indeed. In the morning the breakfast was top class with excellent service. What fantastic value for money - can't wait to come again and have dinner as well. Thank you, Kings Head !

I wasn't sure in the first place of that was the place, but in this quiet address you fall in love with peace, nature and the local people. I'm sorry I didn't ask for your names. We were created warmly and kind by the girls behind the bar. We weren't sure if we wanted to eat. Well I was. Few dishes of the day which in my experience days straight away cooked fresh today. I chose the lamb pie with chips and gravy and peas. I was ready for something mediocre. There pie arrives with a little flag on it saying "Baa". I giggled and tuck into the chips. First bite and from what I know as home cooked this took me while back when I was growing my own veg and potatoes realising that this is all home grown, cooked and couldn't wait to try the pie. Oh Lord that was cooked beautifully with love. Then we talked to a lady who seemed to be one of the chefs who walked round and started a conversation. From what we gathered she was the mum of the head waiter, who is the manager of this place, who also have cooked this for us. Absolutely adorable family run business with lots of charm. We loved you tonight and wish you all the greatest success and happiness in the world.

Every Wednesday evening I find myself seeking an eating venue in South Norfolk. Quite by chance, this week, I met someone who recommended The King's Head, New Buckenham, especially as it was "Pie & A Pint" night. I hadn't visited the place for many years, and was pleasantly surprised to discover the transformation. Everything about the place was appealing and the food, ambiance, welcome and service was first class. The homemade pies were exceptionally good, as was the bread and butter pudding. The restaurant menu looked extremely inviting,and the wine list sensible and not overpriced. All in all, excellence in everything, including value for money. I shall be sampling the remainder of the "pie" selection over the coming weeks.

Service was fine. Food was average, however, the roast potatoes were not up to scratch, in that they seemed to have been precooked and finished off in a deep fat fryer. Vegetables were well-cooked and plentiful. Roast lamb was okay. The Yorkshire pudding was very good.

This is a great place to stay. Dan and Jenny, the landlord and landlady, and all the staff we met were super friendly, welcoming and really made our short stay ideal. We'd cycled to the pub and needed refreshments after a very hot 30 miles. We were poured drinks and made to feel really welcome. Dan even found us a tool to fix a bike seat. The food was lovely. Good menu, good variety, excellent service and sensibly priced bottles of wine. The prosecco was good too - we were celebrating a job promotion!

Went for meal (for 3) for first time since it had changed hands 3 months ago. Previously the pub provided a very good menu selection at a reasonable price.

3 of us out for a quiet bike ride through the Norfolk lanes. Stumbled across this place. The staff were really helpful and accommodating. It was a bank holiday weekend, weather was fine and they were expecting lots of customers. However, they fitted us in and fed and watered us without any reservation. The food was really good and the service was excellent.

Another excellent Sunday lunch, staff are always helpful and friendly, service is always good along with the quality of food. I have done a previous positive review but I believe all good places should get these good reviews try the Sunday Lunch you will be back for more.

We have been camping locally and found this pub. What a find! Very friendly and welcoming. Great range of beers, beautifully cooked food, and the staff were great. Highly recommend this pub.

This was the first time we'd eaten here since Dan and Jenny took over, and it was great.We had the roast dinner, lamb for 1 and beef for 2. The roasted carrots and parsnips were a bit different and really delicious; there were plenty of other fresh veg, 3 huge roast potatoes, plenty of gravy, and the best Yorkshires I've ever had (and I was born in Sheffield) My 94 year old mum managed most of it, and was given her leftovers in a nice foil parcel for tomorrow! The sticky toffee pudding was good too, nice and light. Very good service, great value and altogether to be recommended. (Maybe you should put a menu outside so people can see what you're doing now?) We have a big family gathering for mum's 95th in September and I shall definitely recommend you to overnight visitors.

For the Easter break we chose to stay in a property in New Buckenham following some research of a lovely village with two local pubs which met our requirements.

Located on the green with only parking around the green which was not easy. Was advised that the new management team have only been in place for three weeks so still early days but very friendly. You get mixed messages when you first enter the bar as to what is on offer as there is a TV, pool table, children play toys and a few tables. You then disappear through a side corner door and down a passage and enter the dinning room area which is a reasonable size. The meal was reasonable and a good size and reasonable cost. Had the sausage and mash which was nice but a bit over welmed by gravy. Worth a try.

We were staying nearby and decided to walk along to The Kings Head. We received a very warm welcome and nothing was too much trouble. The food was very nice and staff very attentive. Overall a lovely little place :)

Popped in by chance on a Friday lunch time, place was quiet but looked homely and the staff were very friendly and welcoming. quite a varied menu for lunch and dinner. The pub has I understand recently been renovated and it has a cosy quaint olde sytle pub feel.

Today we had a fabulous lunch to celebrate mums 75th birthday. Staff very friendly and even though there was party of 10(including 2 children) the food was brought out very promptly and very hot, with plenty of vegetables. Wonderful choice of food and very filling. Will be def coming back for more family celebrations. Best place we’ve found for food. Biggest thanks to chef and kitchen for fabulous meal . And all reasonable prices.

Smashing little pub with accommodation. Booked for a quick visit over New Year. The staff were superb and the rooms were excellent. The locals were all friendly too! A much better place than we expected to be honest. Well worth a visit. Food was great, rooms were lovely and clean. All really good. Very pleased with our choice.

I reviewed this some time ago, but at that time the bar atmosphere let the whole establishment down for me. Have since visited again and the bar this time was great and the staff really friendly. We had a Christmas get together and the food was excellent. The waiting staff were brilliant and I think that locally now this is the best venue for a meal. Well done. We shall certainly be back!

Warm friendly welcome, extensive menu with extra specials. Place was immaculate and decorated for Christmas but not in your face very subtly done. Food was so very good and everyone had a great evening. We will certainly use this pub again without a doubt.

Rolled up unannounced, hungry, and not in the best of moods after the Journey From Hell back from London, hoping to be squeezed in for Saturday evening dinner - this was our third try locally, after one nearby establishment who were fully booked and another we walked straight in and then out of, deterred by having to run the gauntlet of the raucous Lung Cancer Club outside and then endure the deafening noise inside.
