No food to serve on a Saturday afternoon! The staff have a level of apathy towards the customers that's astonishing! They have a dog that walks around the pub yet it's not dog friendly! Very clicky. Hated it

My family was arriving by 2 taxis from our holiday to have lunch and refreshments before heading for the southminster station. Half our group arrived at 130pm only to be turned away saying you were not opening until 3pm. When we arrived in the 2nd taxi trip to meet them at the station at 2pm you were open. Shame on you. Your loss on selling 10 meals and drinks.

My husband and I visited the Kings Head for Sunday lunch. Plenty of parking, the pub itself is a really interesting old building, spotlessly clean. A very warm welcome from both the staff and locals. Sunday lunch was perfect, old school roast potatoes, plenty of beef and gravy and fantastic cauliflower cheese. A lovely chilled out Sunday lunch, will definitely be visiting again.

Having planned to take our 90-year old aunt out for lunch but finding her favourite cafe closed and nothing else open in Southminster (on a Saturday lunchtime….), we decided on The Kings Head. At first we were a little wary, especially as it turned out to be a match day and the pub was full of footy fans. But the welcome we received from staff and customers was so warm and friendly, accommodating our aunt’s wheelchair, and the excellent food made it a thoroughly enjoyable lunch. We would definitely recommend it.

We popped in for a meal on our way home from steeple Bay and it was not a good experience after waiting for an hour they had burnt the jacket potatoes and by the time we had solected a replacement it was all cold and some over cooked we did say at the end of the meal and was offered an apology, we won't be going back.

Visited on Saturday morning with the family for breakfast which was very good. Everyone enjoyed their freshly prepared breakfast which was made with local produce I believe. Portions were generous and offered good value for money. Staff were friendly and there is a large outdoor seating area for when the British weather plays ball. Great to have a local pub like this.

We have been coming to the Kings Head since Pete, the Landlord, took over. Staff always friendly, Pete always stops for a chat, great atmosphere and friendly patrons. Not eaten much off the menu, have had the breakfast lots of times, which I think is only available at the weekends, and they are second to none. Yes there is a lot of local competition for breakfasts with a few cafe's and even some of the Burnham restaurants now offering. We have probably tried most, The Kings Head breakfast beats them all. Quality produce, piping hot, very flexible as to what you want and also very reasonable, seriously great food. My only small request would be, is for a proper espresso or filter coffee option for coffee lovers. So if you want pop in for a swift after work, or a night out on a Friday or Saturday, or family breakfast in the morning........... .......The Kings Head has it all !

We often go here with our neighbours, for a catch up and get together, lovely pub with a beautiful courtyard garden. The landlord Pete, has put a lot of work into making this pub the best in southminster, always busy at weekends with music and D.J, the food is lovely big portions and all home cooked, the roast is delicious. Pete has put so much effort and hard work into this village pub, a nice guy always has a chat with his customers, can’t fault this place at all well done Pete you have done well xx

Discovered this pub by chance a week ago when walking a local circular hike in the area. We called to see if they had a table and unfortunately they were fully booked. At the end of the hike we popped in for a drink. The pub is geared up for food mostly on Sundays, but the team were so accommodating and welcomed us to sit at the bar. The atmosphere was lovely - very traditional country pub vibes - with the staff knowing most customers by name. The team were so kind and accomodating, they even managed to squeeze us in for a Sunday Roast which we were so grateful for after our hike. Food was delicious, service was great and everyone was so friendly! We will be back!

Can never fault them. Always friendly and always consistent with their food. And I've tried a handful of different things from their menu. If you haven't tried their new menu, you have to try their smoothies. Their mango smoothie tastes like summer and is my new addiction.I often get their stuff to take away and am never disappointed

We nipped in yesterday but even though they were just about to close (it was 4pm and we hadn't realised) they still took our order and served us. We had three lovely waffles. Really welcoming service and so grateful that they stayed open for us as the kids really enjoyed it. Lovely little place as well.

I was recommended this Cafe by a friend who has a somewhat dubious reputation and nature. But unlike the time in Prague which we won't mention, this cafe was fantastic. I had a delicious burger and a slab of cake which was good for 2 sittings. I would definitely go back here.
