Had an absolutely experience at the star kingswood the other week. Was really fast and happy service from bar staff and the manager Tom always had a smile on his face.

Have had many of great night in this pub in the last two years of having moved into the area. Have grown good friends with the locals and become part of the pool team now. The staff are friendly and accommodating and go above and beyond to make sure we have the sports on the drinks poured and the pool table at the ready. Libby , young tom , Liz , Jason and landlord Tom are exceptional and the way Tom has turned the pub around and pulled in the staff needed who do an amazing job and how he operates as a whole makes the whole pub and clientele feel at ease and make it an enjoyable environment to be around sets it aside from others Iโve attended. It does not do food but to attend for the sports or to play pool and congregate with friends or family with the added bonus of a welcome from Rex the dog is class and my children enjoy seeing the pooch and trying to play pool very much! Well done Tom and staff you should be very proud and Iโll be eager to attend again!!

Just beware if you put back a poster and it falls out you might get barred and pushed out down the stairs. If that the pub you wanna be in go for it but donโt really think landlords should be doing that.

Tom and his team are doing a brilliant job in turning The Star around. Not too long ago I wouldn't even use the pub myself due to how bad it had become, but now I'm happy to take my 75 year old Dad in here for a pint. The pub is friendly, relaxed and clean. Keep up the good work.

The star is a classic local. If you like darts or pool, they have both. The staff are usually friendly and there's a community "everyone knows everyone" feel to the place. Since moving house I don't go here very often anymore but I used to spend quite alot of time hanging out in the beer garden and I've never left not having had a good chat with a stranger.

Went into the pub last night. Sue to staff illness there was only one member of staff working. He was amazing! I think every last glass must have been used as it is always busy on a Friday. However the lone barman kept the glasses cleared ( and washed them all up) no one waited for any length of time for a drink. He was upbeat and friendly even though his head must have been spinning! Pub really has great staff always a pleasure to visit.

Friendly staff and patrons, cosy place yet bright with a great atmosphere as a local though welcoming to a newcomer! Decent prices too with a tempting spirit range (especially gin but that might have been promotional -looked inviting regardless!) Definitely will return soon and probably often, hopefully to beat my pool-shark boyfriend on the table at the back!

Great pub with a good range of drinks, plenty of Tv's about so sport's are played on them. The pub has a Poole table and darts board (We advise you bring your own darts as only a few are available from behind the bar). The staff and landlady are very friendly and chatty to. There is an outside area to which does have overhead heating to. The overall decour and interior are some what a little run down and is in need of a refurbishment, however we have learnt that this may happen soon ie in 2019. This is a pub which is frequented by locals and has a great atmosphere.๐ป๐๐

The Star is arguably the best pub in Kingswood, with only The Essex arms as a challenger. Good prices, decent local atmosphere, only moan is there were no pump ales available, all 3 off. That should't be the case on a Friday night with the weekend to come. Would of been 4 stars, but drops to 3 because of this.

We have used Panahar a few times in the past without issue however our recent order was late, incorrect and missing items. We placed an order at 5:30 which arrived at about 7:20, fair enough the weather recently has been awful. The order was wrong, with the three chicken biriyani we ordered being sent as lamb by mistake. The order was also pretty cold and missing 3 naan and 3 onion bhaji. When we contacted the restaurant we were told they would speak to the driver and get back to us. We got a call back about 7:30 from a very friendly staff member who explained the driver had given the missing items to another customer by mistake and replacements would be sent out in 5mins. At 8:00 the replacements arrived and contained 3 naan and 2 onion bhaji. Still missing 1 onion bhaji but by this point we were a bit fed up and didnโt bother to complain. Why after all these issues is the review still 3stars? Because the food was still excellent and the each member of staff spoken to was friendly, polite and apologetic. I would still recommend Panahar, the food is that good, but maybe check your order when it arrives!

Looked very busy but still a few tables available. There seemed to be several tables being used by companies for meetings. Very noise, what with background music and meetings taking place. I think they could do with putting in a false ceiling as it might help with sound. Definitely not somewhere I would take my hearing impaired children because it would be too difficult to have a conversation. Also difficult to tell if the barista was talking to me or the drive-through customers as they wear a headset with the mic in front of the mouth all the time.
