The Kings Head Inn in Cotswold - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Easy to find. Play equipment opposite (seesaw and swings). Good food, very friendly staff, will definitely revisit this good looking restaurant.

Lovely meal and great beers and wine on offer too. Catered for our lad well and the grown ups had Pigeon, Venison, chicken and mushroom pie and the half chicken. Nice restaurant, great pub with decent atmosphere.

A lovely Village setting complements this super Pub. Two couples had an excellent lunch in a relaxed atmosphere. The food menu is very varied and sensibly priced. It was a beautiful day and the outside seating of the Pub looked very attractive. The interior is extremely pleasant with the tables set well apart to ensure personal conversation. Great range of beers, did we enjoy our visit ? You bet.

This is one of our favourite pubs in The Cotswolds, we come here to eat at least once every time we’re in the area. The food, premises and hospitality are first rate. Six of us had a lovely lunch in the garden earlier this week.

Excellent service, friendly and efficient. Food was very good and generous portions. D We don't normally have deserts but they was all to die for

Met a load of old mates for lunch last Sunday. Such a great country pub and the food was generous and really good. My children loved the roast beef and for the first time were a little too full for pudding.

The most expensive Courtyard room is SO damp that it is not fit for habitation. My partner's asthma was triggered it is so bad and we hardly had any sleep as the mattress and bedding was so cold and damp. The furniture and carpet were worn threadbare, dirty and stained. We were moved to another room with a better atmosphere but the blind was dirty with black spores and the pillows upon inspection were covered in yellow stains. The whole hotel lacks attention to detail with grubby worn furniture inside and outside in the garden. The white furniture, positioned next to a dumping ground for a flowerbed, needs pressure washing as does the cane furniture which is growing moss. Very disappointing, very expensive for the standard. Needs a lot of attention to bring it up to a reasonable standard. Such a shame as the majority of staff were friendly and helpful and the food was generally good.

6 of us met for lunch yesterday in a family gathering. Some from overseas. The food was ok but the service was not so good. I was ordering a scoop of ice cream and asked the young male waiter to repeat he flavors. He rolled his eyes in front of our entire party. I do have to ask what the 12.5% service charge that is added to the final account is for. It really put a bad tone to the whole experience. By the way the female staff were fine.

The food was absolutely excellent as was the venue and most of the staff were friendly and efficient. The service and attitude however from the Waitress was very poor, she forgot the nibbles we ordered and our starters were delivered to the table before we could remind her. A drink we ordered was not delivered, when we reminded her, she said she had forgotten but there was no apology and finally the coffee we ordered never arrived. A disappointing experience on an otherwise lovely evening.

5*! I went here today with my family for lunch. It was a last minute booking. They moved tables around to accommodate my request for 6 of us to dine at a certain time as online showed as not available. Was impressed and grateful! We loved sitting in the restaurant which was slightly quieter than the bar area. Beautifully decorated pub and clean and tidy loos! The service from the waiter and waitresses was 1st class. Lovely menu which wasn't too big or over complicated, absolutely delicious food, gorgeous wine and fab ambience. Have booked to return next week. Thankyou for a wonderful lunch! Definitely recommend!

Staying in Chadlington for a few days and booked Sunday lunch. We were not disappointed Very friendly team, with a warm friendly welcome. The food was great I had beef husband had pork. The team work very well together. The atmosphere is great. It gets very busy but not noisy. If ever we are this way again, will definitely go back

Stayed 2 nights in very comfortable accommodation in the inn itself (mind your head on many low beams!) and enjoyed two dinners and a lunch as well as breakfasts. The KH is keeping up high food standards, and the main bar with its giant fireplace is as cosy as ever.

Highly recommend this pub/inn. Staff, food and ambience excellent. Comfortable stay and great walks nearby. Will definitely return soon.

Really enjoyed our 3 course lunch. Good service with pleasant staff and reasonable main course prices. Also enjoyed the house red. I'm not known for eating all my meals out but loved the open coronation chicken sandwich with tasty fries. Snails were a change from the norm but would have preferred a softer bread to soak up the garlic sauce. Clotted cream ice cream- what's not to like?

Enjoyable evening meal. Very good menu choices and great food. Would recommend but felt a tad pricey. Car parking interesting. Had to ask a local where best to park as small pub car park full. Again would thoroughly recommend.

I would say that this is a great pub. But not excellent. The service was friendly but chaotic and all the food was great. Really nice position and location as well. Really good but not five stars.

Perfect place to meet up with friends for a few drinks and dinner. Very welcoming and friendly staff. Great selection of wines, beers and ales. The meal was delicious and they went out of their way to cater for my wife's food allergies. We stayed overnight. The rooms were lovely, very comfortable and exceptionally clean. A big thank you to Archie and all of his staff for making our stay so memorable and look forward to returning in the future.

We've been going to The King's Head for a few years for a large family Christmas gathering. It's always good. This year again, the food was exceptional & delicious. The service was excellent & atmosphere cosy & comfortable. It's a super pub & place to dine.

Booked a table here because we were looking for somewhere to have dinner within 20 minutes of Upper Slaughter, where we were staying the night. Came across The Kings Head on Google maps and were so glad we did, as it was excellent in every way. It was so nice to visit in December and see the lovely Christmas decorations the pub had up. The place is warm and cosy and the staff friendly and efficient. Highly recommend the escargots, pheasant breast and creme brulee. A perfect dinner and visit!

Great atmosphere, friendly polite service and super dog friendly. There was a good selection on the menu at a reasonable price. Lunchtime is best for those wanting a roast.

This was a convenient place for a 6-monthly meeting for lunch with my cousin. The staff were welcoming and the service was good. The atmosphere was warm and convivial. We both had cheese souffle starters which were strangely swimming in a creamy soup which made the souffles soggy, but they were tasty. My main course was roast venison which was tough, barely warm and inedible. My cousin's venison and mushroom pie was better but still with tough meat. The green vegetables in both our dishes were under-cooked. When we had finished the waitress asked if everything was OK. I explained about my half-finished plate and the inedible meat. She said she would tell the chef and that was the last we heard of it. We shall not go there again.

We had a very nice lunch in this cosy pub. We all had goat's cheese paninis with chips. It was a cold day and they warmed us up nicely.

Visited here on Saturday afternoon whilst staying nearby. An absolute gem which was so cosy with the fire roaring away. We ended up having some bar nibbles with our drinks as we could see the amazing quality of the food being served to the nearby tables. We had unfortunately already sorted our dinner out for that day so couldn’t partake in a full meal but would definitely visit again when in the area

The worst smell meets you upon entry! Fish or dirt! We used to come here years ago when they had a fabulous chef that went on to open his own restaurant. We thought we would try it again. Well lunch was absolutely dreadful! Hamburger had something added to the meat! Tasted awful. Croutons for soup were fried in old oil and the soup was definitely not fresh! We ended being sick from the food! I am very sensitive to oils that are reused! It ruined my two days in the Cotswolds. Beautiful place but don’t eat there! Just go for a pint!

Absolutely fabulous ! We had a meal here with friends on the 20th October, the overall experience was superb from start to finish. Beautiful pub, attentive and super helpful staff, great atmosphere and the food was outstanding !! If we ever in town again, we’ll be sure to visit again. Highly recommended !

Was surprised as dogs were allowed where we ate. Will not be using that olace for eating agin. Very disappointed.

Was looking to come to the Cotswold’s for a week and also to visit the sights of the show Clarkson’s Farm. I noticed a photo of Jeremy online with a bandaged thumb in the kings. So booked a table hoping to see the star. Once seated by lovely attentive staff, we ordered food, Wow the food was fantastic and the surrounding’s delightful. So much so that we returned again today for lunch. Pros Staff Food Suroundings Cons Nothing

The King's Head is a hidden treasure. We stayed here for my birthday weekend after having eaten twice before when visiting the Cotswolds. Everything was of the best quality, the rooms are spacious, tastefully decorated and have every thing you could wish for, all of the highest quality. Even the toiletries are blended individually for the establishment. The food is exceptional, breakfasts are excellent and vary for all tastes with an extensive selection. The food in the evening is of a high quality with a menu which is just varied enough, fine dining but without the expense really. Every touch has been thought of, the flowers my husband ordered through them were tasteful and beautiful. Even when I'd forgotten my phone charger, they helped straight away with a replacement. We will definitely be staying again and can't wait. Thank you to all the staff for such a fantastic stay. Tracey and Andre Meehan

We visit The Cotswolds every year, and often have dinner in the pub with our family. This week we were coming for a local hosted event, and decided to stay overnight at TKH beforehand. We arrived a bit earlier than expected, but we were shown...

This is a truly enchanting old inn of enormous charm, and character. We have followed Archie Orr-Ewing from his previous hostelry in Swinbrook to his present perch on the village green in Bledington where you can be assured of a warm welcome from his friendly...

A lovely room in the old building, great breakfasts with lots of options, excellent dinners cooked beautifully with good ingredients, wines and beers to suit all tastes and very importantly caring, helpful and friendly staff. What’s not to like. We’ll be back.

My daughter and I were driving around trying to find somewhere to eat and came across The Kings Head and what a find! Without any fuss we were seated and ordered drinks and food. Service was prompt and staff were very attentive. The food was...

Great pub for a family meal. We came here last year, and the pub was even better, it seemed, this year. Everyone enjoyed their meal. Staff were very pleasant and helpful with an allergy problem, which was appreciated. Service, ambiance and food was great. Recommended.

As always, we looked at reviews before booking dinner here. The reviews were very good but our experience was even better than we anticipated. The service was friendly and attentive but not overbearing. The taste and presentation of the food was first class. I wholeheartedly...

Been intending to eat here for a long time. Finally made it and was really impressed. Lovely interior, ambience, welcome and service. Good, extensive menu, ale and wine list. Well be returning soon.

I stayed here a week ago for a wedding being held nearby and absolutely loved my stay. Everything was terrific but the overriding and ever present experience was of the amazing staff and service that they provide. Nothing was too much trouble and all done...

Their raspberry bread pudding was the best I have ever tasted. Wonderful egg custard rich bread pudding with custard and raspberry, the dusting of sugar caramelised beautifully. Well worth the money. One of our party had the steak and kidney pie which was one of...

We took a very discerning friend out to a mystery - for him - location for a Sunday lunch. We were able to relax straight away as the atmosphere in the Kings Head bar was very welcoming and friendly. We were not disappointed by the...

My friends decided for some reason (probably because they are nice) to take me for Sunday lunch and chose the Kings Head. The setting is lovely, in a very picturesque Cotswold village. The food was lovely, and the sizes of the portions were very good,...

Fish & chips with mushy peas! Chips were French fries and very ‘scrappy , 2 teaspoons of mushy peas, the fish was fine but at £17.50 it was poor value for money. When asked if the meal was ok, I mentioned the chips were French...

Had an excellent meal here on our first night in Bledington. A real old English Country pub with excellent food and friendly efficient service. So good we booked the following evening and were not disappointed. Recommended and when we return will definitely book here again.

My wife and I enjoyed a very nice meal at The Kings Head, a short walk from our Airbnb in Bledington. The pub is oozing with character and was almost full on a Wednesday night, which is always a good sign. We shared the salt...

A fantastic British Inn with great food, superb real ale, open fire and lovely atmosphere. Away from the crowds in Stow and other Cotswolds hotspots. Stayed here many times on business and worth it! Good value, great staff and a lovely village.

What a fantastic place. We just had a 3 night mid week break here and couldn't have asked for more. All the staff were friendly and always made you feel welcome. After a nice breakfast it set us up for a day sightseeing and because...

We used this establishment for a one night stay to break up a long journey. It's LOVELY and excellent in every way. The staff are sincere, warm and courteous, as well as professional, efficient and helpful. The premises is very well maintained and clearly efficiently...

Great evening meal, very friendly staff, lovely atmosphere. It was busy but they still got everything right. Lovely place

Top drawer - a friendly welcome, really excellent Sunday lunch and good service. Much appreciated, particularly after what I’m sure was a busy and late New Year’s Eve!

Classic Cotswold pub facing the Village Green, complete with stream running through it. There is a cosy front bar with wooden beams and real fire; to the rear is a larger restaurant. On the bar there is a great range of ales, including several local...

Three of us popped in - initially for a quick working lunch but we ended up having a longer lunch with 3 courses: we just couldn't resist the delicious menu. Having eaten recently at some of the neighbouring, more pretentious pubs, it was a relief...

We visited the King’s Head after seeing good reviews and staying a couple of Days in the beautiful Cotswolds The meal itself was a mix bag For starters we had foccocia and oil Balsamic dip and a butternut cheese tart both of which were very...

We stayed three nights here and what a little gem it is. Could not fault a thing. Food, accommodation and staff were first class. Would definitely come back again,

We were a group of 20 for lunch continuing with our celebrations following my daughter's wedding in the Cotswolds. Louise and Ella looked after us beautifully. We had a delicious lunch and we all sat together in a room ideal for 20 people. Two of...

We stayed in this gorgeous pub with rooms for a Friday night. What a find! Picturesque old pub on a village green with a lovely bar and restaurant. Stayed in one of the annexe bedrooms which was very comfortable and nicely decorated. Staff are very...

We spent a night at this lovely, friendly and charming pub. We had a super room and then a delicious supper. Venison burger scrumptious and such a good choice of dishes. Definitely had to stay for lunch and were able to enjoy more good food....

Took a friend forna quick drinknon a busy night for the pub. They made room for us with kindness and efficiency. We dawdled and ended up asking if we could also dine there. Fabulous cheese souffle prawn linguine and mushroom pasta. All served by effieicnet...

It’s a lovely looking pub in a great location with friendly and efficient service. We have had a decent meal there before but it was not so great this time. An unpleasant chickpea soup came with hideously salty bread. Inedible. This was followed by scrappy...

I visited this restaurant with friends and family. The staff were friendly and helpful. The decore was nice. It was warm. The food was disappointing. One of my friends is Lactose intolerant and asked if they had an allergy menu. They didn't but helpfully produced...

From the dour, distant waitress to the very medicore food, it was a perfect example of a restuarant dining out on its past reputation. Before a change of management, it was my favourite pub in the area. Now, the service is slow, unsmiling, with no...

Having seen that this highly recommended restaurant catered for vegetarians I was looking forward to my dinner. I always look at the main course first and was far from impressed to find the only option was a vegan curry. (If I wanted a curry I...

We’ve been to the Kings Head before and delighted to be back post lockdowns after a long walk from where we were staying. A beautiful location on edge of picture book village green, complete with a shepherds hut selling ice cream. We had booked a...

Very busy which is good news for the business but meant there was a lot of background noise (but better than being too quiet) and we had to wait for service but it was worth the wait. We were two couples. One of us had...

I researched the best Sunday roast in the Cotswolds and this pub came up. Hence our booking for 4/9/2022 with my husband, myself and our 2 year old granddaughter. I could wax lyrical about our experience but sometimes less is more. So … Food mediocre,...

This was our second visit here after remembering how good it was the first time we discovered it. First we sat and had a drink outside, a lovely pub in a peaceful setting Food and service was very good once again. We will be back...

Came for an evening meal. Had a warm welcome from staff and a lovely meal and deserts, decent pricing for the size of the meals you get. Dogs are allowed in certain areas of the pub. Nice atsmophere would defiantly recommend a visit for food...

Lovely setting and the menu was great but there were far too many large dogs where we were eating. I realise dogs are allowed in pubs and I have been a dog owner but dogs putting their noses on your table with food on it...

Just wow, 3 of us went for lunch and it really was very good. First off one of the ladies had an intolerance to coriander and the waitress went through the menu to explain which dishes had coriander or where it could be omitted. My...

The food was amazing , such good quality & very well executed. We were 3 friends & all enjoyed every course., The service was perfect too., In fact we are going back on the 1st September instead of elsewhere & we can’t wait.

We came here by accident on the recommendation of a nearby pub that could not serve us that day. Lovely location and interior. Pleasant service at a pace that suited us. A mix of standard and more innovative menu. The melon and prosciutto was excellent....

I last reviewed this pub 5 years ago and gave it 5 stars. I just returned and am delighted to report they are still as excellent as before. Top quality Bloody Mary drinks followed by a delicious Sunday Roast lunch with all the trimmings. Lovely...

Looking for a place to tour around Cotswolds area. Planned to stay two nights and eat dinner there once. Ended up with three night stay, three breakfast and three great dinners. Staff work together very well...and very pleasant. Food was consistently good.

Came here with my in laws and 3 children from London en route to a staycation for the summer in Wyck Rissington. The pub was highly recommended from our cottage hosts and it didn’t disappoint. Fantastic Sunday lunch for all the adults - so delicious...

Very Enjoyable! Our 2nd visit in 6 months and every bit as good as the last. Excellent food, perfect friendly service and very happy to visit again soon.

Nice little pub with good basic food as well as the “Gastropub Stuff” Sometimes one just wants an ordinary lunch, rather than an “Experience” so our lunches here hit the spot. Staff were pleasant and efficient. Recommended. 5/5.🍺😀

Found this fantastic pub. The food was absolutely amazing and the staff were so friendly and helpful at all times. Great place to stay for a few nights

Food is ok gastro pub standard and priced accordingly. Sunday roast superb, but a very good prawn linguine ruined by swimming in a vast pool of oil. Main complaint is totally chaotic service which is fundamentally flawed in principle by the fact that no individual...

Walked with my dog from Nether Westcote to Bledington which is about 3 miles. It was a very hot day and so we were ready for some refreshment. Walking through Bledington, we came across the delightful Kings Head Inn. We sat outside facing the village...

A really great local pub in a picture perfect location. We sat out in the garden and the children loved running around and playing on the swings and see-saw. Everyone was friendly and helpful, we felt very relaxed. Wish we lived closer, it would certainly...

Just back from a 3 night stay, with our furry birthday boy. Perfect! Can't wait to return. For those who like reviews with alot of details: Accomodation: there are rooms above the pub and 9 courtyard rooms. We stayed in these, just off pub garden...

This is a smashing pub/restaurant in the heart of the Cotswolds. Had a fabulous dinner here last night, staff and atmosphere were lovely. Last visited 18 moths ago after the first lockdown. So glad we returned and will be back soon.

Great little pub and hotel. We had a great dinner and then stayed. The food was great, with a large menu available, The room was clean, really comfortable and had everything you need. Great service throughout the pub/hotel. Really good.

Excellent service. Very solid food. Nice pub in a great location. Waitress (from Devon) went above and beyond - refreshing

We have visited this pub twice now for dinner. The first time was in a beautiful sunny day and we ate in the garden. We had three courses. For the main i had duck and my partner had a burger. The second time we sat...

This was great. It’s a beautiful location and there are some lovely walks recommended by the pub. We did the middle walk, about 2hrs. We had a faultless dinner in the evening. The cocktails are lovely. The staff are really good, professional, accommodating and friendly....

Managed to book lunch at short notice. A period Cotswolds pub in a lovely location. Excellent food and service. Happy to recommend and visit again.

My partner and I stayed here for 3 nights in Feb half-term - and it was the perfect spot for a Cotswolds mini-break. We stayed Thur to Sun in Room 10, one of the rooms in the courtyard - a separate small building behind the...

All of my party really enjoyed this pub! I had one of the winter spritz drinks and it was delicious and I had the steak pie for my main which was delicious! The sticky toffee pud was also yummyy! would deffo recommend. Amazing service and...

Ended up here on a random Tuesday as it was one of the very few places that was open! Team were very accommodating and squeezed us in last minute. When we arrived it could have been a Friday night it was busy and buzzy in...

Found this place through a Google search - ‘best Cotswold pubs’ - after finding it difficult to find somewhere open in early January and it was perfect for a catch up lunch with friends. The pub itself is lovely with a great feel and the...

Food is always exceptional here, they never fail to deliver. Menu choice is also brilliant, the menu changes regularly so you never get bored. Great wine selection and beers on tap for my partner. We never booked on this occasion but they fitted us in...

My wife and I booked a tabke weeks ago, and our booking was for lunch today. The village of Bledington is stunning and so is this pub. We arrived earlier than scheduled, were warmly greeted, nothing seemed to much to ask from the staff. We...

Lovely Saturday night meal , one of the best we’ve had food 10/10 staff 10/10 and atmosphere 10/10 . The nicest place to eat we’ve visited in the Cotswolds .would definitely recommend
