Very nice pub, great food, good service. The only issue was the number of flies. I know they're difficult to get rid off but the number of flies would have been a problem for most. It was only saved by how excellent the food was.

Had lunch here with friends. We are fairly annoying so asked a lot of questions and had several requests. The waitress was excellent - very patient. Food was great as well, if a little slow in arriving. Despite that I’d highly recommend this pub!

Came across this pub when camping and we were very glad we went in for a meal! Our meals were really lovely there seemed to be a real attention to detail with the flavours and our 2 year old devoured his fish and chips - usually a picky eater! We thoroughly enjoyed the food and there was space to sit outside which was great.

The chips crispy outside soft inside..delicious. the simple rocket salad with sunblushed tomatoes , parmesan and balsamic...perfect to accompany my king prawns. The coffee was excllent as was tge service. Just wow.

Party of 8 out for Sunday lunch at The Kings Head. Between us we had the the Pork belly, Chicken and the Beef, side of stuffing and cauliflower cheese. What a great meal plenty of food on the plate and the quality was second to none. Extra gravy was supplied with out asking for it , and it was full of flavour and nice and thick. We just managed to fit in some crumble for dessert before we rolled out of the door. It's well worth the drive if you're anywhere near New Buckingham to stop and get a fill. Thanks to the friendly staff will see you again.

All in a nice venue. Although the pub is probably as old as time it has been modernised to a high standard. My room (3) was very comfortable. The only niggle is that the extractor fan in the ladies toilet below makes a terrible racket as it is immediately below this room. Good ales, good food and a lovely breakfast. NB: No parking, just street parking but its a quiet village and you are almost certain to find a spot.

It's such a shame I want to like it but unfortunately I can't . On our visit there was no doorway with an entrance sign on it ? Which is bizarre ,we went for Sunday lunch now the food was excellent but the service was terrible the waitresses were extremely slow and I mean slow we asked for a dessert but it took that long we had gone off the idea which was such a shame as we also wanted to book Christmas day lunch and was simply put of by the service. Also the table we sat at was ridiculously small and I mean small . It's a shame as the food was delicious. Absolutely no interaction from the waitresses 👎

We stayed here for just one night for a wedding near by. As all i can say is that I wish we had more time to have spent a few more nights. The hotel shows so much character. The rooms were so beautiful, warm and cozy. The character of the pub/ hotel carried throughout. Our room had so much space great sized bathroom with a great power shower. Beds were very comfortable, bedding of high quality. Did not want to get up!!! Was met by two lovely girls for breakfast and nothing was too much trouble. Highly recommended Kings breakfast 👌. Will definitely be back to stay if for no other reason than to enjoy the warm welcome and the beautiful rooms.

First time for my Wife and I and we were checking it out for a potential Christmas day venue. Arriving, it's not immediately obvious where the front door is and we followed somebody in via the toilets!!! Once at the bar, we were met with a distinctly average greeting and ordered a drink. We explained that we had a reservation and were shown to the dining room. The table for 2 was tiny and poorly positioned, far too close to the adjacent tables. I physically moved the table just to get sat down. Anyone who likes or needs a little extra space is going to struggle. Slow service was the theme for the rest of the experience. Sunday lunchtime and therefore it had to be a roast dinner, once again it was slow to arrive. Plonked on the table with no offer of sauces or condiments. No return to the table to check how we were. Very slow to clear the plates after making it obvious that we had finished. After delivering a pudding menu, the slow approach continued and this time, we changed our minds and opted for the bill. Once again, after waiting several minutes, we had to ask for the card machine and eventually we paid for the meal. At this point, we made the difficult decision not to leave a tip. The most disappointing part of the experience was that the food was actually very good indeed. Hot plates, hot food, plenty of it and all cooked very well. A really good size portion and very tasty. It was just delivered with such impersonal service where you were never made to feel truly welcome. Just a dining number. The decision is, it's not the place for us to spend a hard earned £70 per head on Christmas day. We may well return on a different day and give them a second chance. We all have off days right?? The 3 stars are for the exceptional food, get the service on point and it will be 5 stars all day long.

Awful experience. Started well with getting a drink at the bar. Sat at table and was completely ignored by waitress who served at least two other tables before us. When flagged down, no apology. Others ate but no meals for us, in fact, we think our food went to a wrong table. After 55 mins we paid for the drinks and left. What should have been a lovely day out was a ruin.

What a shame! We visited last year and had an excellent meal. We came back again recently and we were all disappointed with the food, because the menu had entirely changed in style, prices had gone up but the quality of food had gone down. Everything was just trying a bit too hard to be something it wasn't and not quite hitting the mark. The high price of the menu didn't match the quality of food. If it's the same chef they had last year, he needs to give his head a wobble. If it's a new chef, bring the old one back please.

I thought I would treat my wife & family to a roast meal Sunday, as our son has autism I called the kings head & asked if they do takeaway roast. Which they answered yes no problem at all. I was very pleased & arranged to collect this yesterday 17/09/2023 at 1pm & it was in a box ready to collect which we were pleased. £66.60 wasted & I called to say when we got home, the roast potatoes were dry & the beef my wife & daughter couldn’t eat. The girl on the phone was going to tell the landlord & landlady we were disappointed with the quality of food & half was inedible. No one called us back & thought if that’s the way they treat customers after spending that amount on food, without an apology, it’s not very good. My advice is to never have a takeaway roast as you will very disappointed & a complete waste of money

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!

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.

Just been for lunch and had Sea Bass on a bed of Risotto, followed by the Lemon Meringue Stack. My friend had the fish pie and chocolate brownie. Very nice restaurant area.

We visited for our monthly lunch outing, this was the first time we had been to The Kings Head and we will certainly return. There were 18 of us and there was no single complaint. Well done!

We had a lovely meal here and the waitresses were lovely, however during the course of our meal we had several flies intruding, we managed to get a couple but it became slightly irritating while eating to keep swatting flies away, especially as we were dining inside.

We visited the pub as a group of 13 for Sunday lunch. Menu had something to suit everyone, including children and vegetarians. Service was very good and the food was an excellent standard and enjoyed by all. Thanks for a great meal!

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.

What a friendly place! We were made to feel very welcome when we stayed for a few days recently. The room was clean, with tea and coffee making facilities (and biscuits ). Shower gel and shampoo were also provided. We ate in the bar/restaurant both evenings and the food was excellent - home made, plentiful and very tasty.

Four of us had a nights stay at The Kings Head as we were attending a 50th Wedding anniversary in the Village Hall, in the morning we had a really nice breakfast with our cousins their family and friends, as our cousin lives close by I am sure we will be back at The Kings Head again.

Popped in for lunch again yesterday It really is the most friendly pub. I had steak and ale pie and my wife the sirloin steak. Both were excellent. We were sorry to hear Mel is off to pastures new. She was a star. We wish her all the best for the future. It won't be long before we visit again.

We arranged to finish our 7 mile walk from New Buckenham through Old Buckenham and back. This pub was chosen as it is fog friendly. It is very nicely done out and very welcoming. I ordered a latte coffee which was very good. Then prawn and crayfish sandwich with sweet potato chips. All delicious.

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.

Was unsure as a vegan what the food would be like but was very impressed, especially the bang bang cauliflower, quite honestly the nicest cauliflower dish I've ever eaten. My meat eating family were also very happy with the food. Not the cheapest but worth the money for a special night out.
