The Kings Head in Braintree - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Such a friendly and welcoming village pub. The staff are always great and the food is delicious and very reasonably priced. Sharon and Becky served us today and the service was as excellent as ever. Thank and well done to all at The Kings Head, Pebmarsh.

First visit for me, great food and Sharon made us feel very welcome. All the staff we met were very polite and helpful. Highly recommend! Thank you Sharon and team

The food was great, but more importantly, the service was brilliant. The you lady was very helpful and served us really well. So nice to see someone take pride in what they do. We did ask her name and said we would mention her in or review. You should be proud of your young staff, especially this young lady. Thank you Brydie (I hope we spelt it correctly) First class service. Will definitely come back.

What a great find! A warm, friendly pub that was completely packed on a Thursday evening. The food was absolutely delicious, the portions huge. Sofi was lovely, polite, friendly. We had great food in a pub with a wonderful atmosphere and it didn’t break the bank. Wholeheartedly recommend this place. Thank you Sofi and colleagues. We will be recommending to friends and returning ourselves!

Last minute decision to go out and what a good choice. Food fantastic, couldn’t fault the service. Our server was Claire and she was brilliant couldn’t do enough to help with choices. Very busy but food and drinks served quickly. We were a table of six and they had a hen party in that night. Will definitely be returning.

Great food, great beer, great atmosphere and excellent staff (Sharon & Eden). Can highly recommend the steak pie and chips, but make sure you leave room for the deserts!! Love this pub 👍

It was quite busy for a Wednesday lunch time, obviously word has got out!! Excellent food! Chips were amazing! Cheesecake fabulous! Lovely friendly staff (Sharon Henry) Would definitely recommend.

Always made to feel welcome at The Kings Head, especially by Claire. Love the cosy feel of this traditional pub, the food is always delicious and plenty of it. One of our favourite places to go in our area

Great food excellent service. Cathy and Sharon were efficient and friendly . Would recommend this pub. Never disappointed

We often pop in here when in the area. A lovely rural community pub with a friendly atmosphere. We were served by Claire & Brydie for an early dinner yesterday, who were very friendly & efficient. Good varied menu with proper pub grub. Food was delicious, with chunky chips to die for! And the Sunday roasts are superb. We will be back again soon!

We are fairly ocal and decided to try this pub out....Brilliant food,so very well priced,great service and a nice atmosphere 10/10 for a really good laid back meal in nice surroundings....

Great food....really rich and tasty. Great staff. Really friendly pub with a great vibe. We had a lovely meal...Well worth a visit

Been here twice this year - food amazing both times. Much better than average pub grub and generous portions. Friendly service, no problem parking. Only (mild) criticism is the strange 70's style overhead light in the eating area, which doesn't do this nice old pub any favours lol.

Great Sunday lunch. Generous portions. Delicious. The service at the table was warm and friendly. It is a welcoming pub.

A great community pub, serving good beers and great food. Lunch time small eats menu is great value. Alongside the specials menu and the normal menu. Good food always Great friendly staff

Never having been to the King's Head, Pebmarsh before, we had no preconceptions of what we might find. It was a treat in every way. It was what pubs used to be like and are increasingly hard to find, perhaps because of its rural location....
