Three Kings Pub in St Edmundsbury

Excellent place for food and drink. We’ll be back soon!

Had Sunday lunch in celebration of birthday. Meal was delicious. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Good value for the money.

Food was good and staff were polite and friendly thumbs-up

29th September had the best Sunday lunch, plenty of veg for our table of 6 to share. Everyone was really impressed with the food, I had roast beef, excellent. The doughnut desert was to die for. Recommend most strongly.

A party of six went Friday 20th September to celebrate two birthdays,out of the six five had to send food back to the kitchen,when the food arrived back from the kitchen,it was still inferior, we took it home to feed our dogs.I complained to the waitress expecting management to come to our table to resolve the situation, but there didn't appear to be any management on duty that night ,so we paid full total of the bill for food we could not eat ,and also our celebrations ruined, but we will not be returning.

Staff were so friendly and food was amazing

Staff friendly and efficient. Food was excellent.

Always had a great time, the staff are 10/10 food great 👏👏👏👏👏

Staff were very rude. Went in with my wife and our friend as the pubs down the road for home, they had cancelled on a table which was nice, we got seated had a look at the menu not a lot of options for a vegetarian so decided not to eat, lady in the strip trousers come to ask if we was ready we explained we was going to be eating she then rudely taking the menus away told us to move into the bar now and walked off what lovely manners she’s (NOT) then we finished our drinks went to pay the tab the young man at the bar blonde hair tall one, said to my wife was it to expensive for us, she was like excuse me he repeated him and we paid and walked off wasn’t going to entertain him, but for you information we can afford your food but we would rather go somewhere we can be treated right. The manager need to give there staff lessons on manners which they don’t have it’s absolutely disgusting will never come back again 😡

A lovely pub , excellent rooms and great staff , I highly recommend, I enjoyed my stay here and the area is beautiful.

The cheater and I popped into the three kings for lunch on the way home from MG dealership bury st Edmunds. We both had the sirloin beef with rocket on sourdough bread and chili jam with French fries which was really really nice and great value for the price. got to be honest from the outside the three kings just looks like a regular pub that you wouldn't give a second look at on your way pasted. But once you walk in, its very smart clean and tidy. Staff are smartly dressed and friendly .Well done to the owners food is gorgeous the staff are very polite friendly and helpful. We will be coming back very very soon for a sunday roast lunch 😋

Was there for my nans wake and it was lovely we had our own area. The food was perfect just not enough of it lol. My Nan would have loved it because we were able to play the board games from behind the bar. I never stayed so I can not comment on the rooms.

Super dog friendly village pub. Great food, good choice of beers and fab wine selection. All really good value and the staff go out of their way to make every visit a relaxed treat. Sunday lunch is one of, if not the, best in the area.

We stayed here for one night and it was great. Roo. really comfortable, the staff very friendly and good food.

Popped in had a hour to kill had a lovely pint of Guinness and a brilliant pie with new potatoes and veg absolutely amazing

Attended a wake here after funeral at the nearby crematorium. Not a massive car park, but additional parking available close by. Plenty of room and a good buffet.

Great place for food reasonably priced

Fantastic food, thoroughly enjoyed. Restaurant manager was great. Well worth a visit.

Our favourite place to go at the weekend. Great food, lovely wine and wonderful staff. Happy to have such a fab pub so close by.

I have been to the Three Kings many time but this is the first time going since the new owners took over a few years ago. I do not mind paying for decent food, however the food quality just simply was not matching up to the prices. The steak sauce was tasteless. I feel as though the Three Kings are trying to be A Là Carte but they do not have the food quality to execute this. I asked for my steak to be medium rare but it came medium - this is all basic stuff that shouldn't be happening when paying £30. The tomato paste on the potatoe gratin was bizarre and it was so oily I couldn't tell if it were a potatoe gratin or fried bread. My daughters toasted sandwich was same story, it was incredibly greasy, so much so that you couldn't taste the flavours inside the toasted brioche. The service was incredibly slow however the guy was on his own, but the pub was by no means busy. Our drinks arrived mid-way through our meal despite ordering them before ordering our food. Our experience was an all round disappointment.

My family brought me here for Sunday lunch. Perfect. Lovely cosy dining area, Delicious food and great service. I loved the way my four year old granddaughter was treated..able to have her main when we had starter and then dessert a little sooner to follow and a further treat. We had a very happy time.Thank you.

Friendly bar staff good selection of drinks and the food looked great

Extremely clean. Staff excellent. Food and service very good. 1st visit, impressed.

On 27th May 2023, I had my 60th Birthday Party at the Three Kings. I truly cannot thank Chris, Lucy, James and their fantastic team enough for making my birthday bash absolutely fabulous. The food was amazing, everyone loved it and it was replenished repeatedly, so it was always fresh and super tasty! The cocktails were very popular too! Nothing for was too much trouble, even providing extra string for the children’s balloons!! Everyone had the most amazing time, we took over most of the Pub and the outside courtyard was perfect for the entertainment and for the children to run around securely. One of my friends said it was the “Party of the Decade”. Think that sums it up!! A heart felt “Thank you” to Chris, Lucy, James and your very hard working team! Lyn Martin xxx

Probably the poorest service I have ever received in BSE. We had to wait 10-15 minutes to receive the bill after we asked for it, and then had to go up to the bar to pay anyways because the server never came back. Paid in cash and they did not offer change, meaning we were forced to leave a tip for the aforementioned bad service. We will not be returning. Otherwise, the food was well-prepared and fresh, but very overpriced in my opinion. The portions were relatively small compared to several other local establishments and we left hungry after spending £45 for two…

Lovely location and friendly staff. Was a little disappointed in the food, it's on the pricey side of average unless you choose from the set menu. Dogs welcome which is fantastic.

Service & Food 1st Class. Great lunch.

Fab pub, fab food, fab people and doggie friendly too!

A good clean pub, good food at slightly higher than reasonable prices

I stayed in one of the newly refurbished bedrooms which was clean, very comfortable and stylish. Breakfast was also lovely and the pub looks classy. The staff were also very friendly.

Had a wake there food was very good it was £20 a head but not enough we only had 30 people catererd for and they didn't all come the food soon went so for £20 a head there wasn't enough very disappointing so you need to order more but at £20 a head it's very expensive and at sad times like that reluctant to complain about it

A little gem in fornham! What a turn around since being taken over. The decor is tastefull and feels upmarket. The food is sensational. We tried wild mushroom truffles from the nibbles and they were exquisite in flavour. We had roast beef for main with all the trimmings and there was not a bland flavour on my plate, it was nothing short of a flavour explosion. If you like good quality food and a nice atmosphere with tastfull surroundings then I would highly recommend.

Never went in just pulled up outside with a flat tyre but looked a great drum

Excellent food and very good service

Really lovely setting in a much improved pub. The food was excellent and service attentive. We've recommended this place to friends and will definitely go back. Let's hope they keep the standards this high.

Brilliant food, portion sizes good and so much flavour. Already booked two more visits bring the family in!!

We visited on a Monday when they have a deal on 2 x roast dinners. We had a table of 8 including 4 children. All of the adults had a roast and we all agreed the food was lovely! The staff are very friendly and welcoming and I highly recommended visiting!

Took mum for a Sunday roast here, friendly accommodating cheerful yet professional staff. Well presented tasty food of a generous proportion

I decided on booking Sunday Lunch here after having eaten here a few years ago and really enjoying it.However I and the rest of my family were really disappointed with the meal.Firstly we were expecting the "fresh seasonal vegetables" as was advertised on the website we were served with peas (Typical kind you would get from the freezer) and a few slithers of carrot, secondly the rest of the meal was bland and some what reminiscent of a school dinner.The service was okay but for £11.95 I would not rate it as good value for money. I am sorry that I didn't complain at the time but being a birthday treat for my mother I didn't want to cause an atmosphere.

Lucky to get a table , as nearly all reserved , arrived early decided on roast pork.. meat very nice but oh the veg !!! There are better than Peas and Carrots.... cauli, broccoli, leeks, different cabbages ,sprouts etc , know that peas and carrots are cheap and frozen as are the Yorkshire’s ! Disappointed as the last time we had slowed cooked Brisket on mash with parsnip curls and other veg ... delicious ! No-one bothered to come and ask if everything was OK , not even when we paid , very disappointing !

Schöner, gemütlicher Pub, mit gutem Essen und freundlicher Inhaberin.

Extremely pleasant and very welcoming. Being able to take my dog Wilma with me is great and she was very well taken care of. We will be back for sure, hopefully pretty regularly.

We stayed here for 4 nights with our dog last week. The landladies and staff were very friendly. The food was tasty and reasonably priced. The steak and kidney pie was a proper pie not a casserole with a pastry lid. Breakfast was freshly cooked and filling. The fridge in our room was an added bonus and our room had the best hotel bed I've slept in for a long time. We can highly recommend The Three Kings and will definitely stay there again the next time we visit beautiful Bury St Edmunds.

We recently ate at the pub when staying at West Stow! The pub is dog friendly and the food was good. The staff were welcoming and friendly.

Sunday lunch.roast potatoes were great.home cooked and you could tell.reasonable price.staff very friendly.would visit again when in the area

We had a family meal here on a Saturday night to celebrate a birthday as we were staying locally for the weekend. We booked ahead the day before to make sure we could get a table. The landlady’s were super friendly and welcoming to us and made a big fuss of our dog. The pub was busy and had a good atmosphere and the food was just stunning. It looked like a normal pub menu, lots of choice, but it was cooked to perfection. I had the beef Brisket with mustard mash which was fabulous. My husband had the fish pie which he loved and my dad loved his fish and chips. I was really impressed with this little place and would definitely recommend it.

visited mid-week ,booked our table the day before to make sure we got in but plenty of tables as it was early . Very friendly bar staff. The menu very good also a good specials board , and different specials for each day off the week. very clean , all our meals came at the same time which you don't get at some places. Meals very good could not fault any thing about our night out . Good selection of beers .Will be back

We just stopped off for a quick lunch. Friendly staff and good beer. I had Fish and chips, the chips were maybe a bit greasy, but looked home made. My wife’s Jacket potato was a bit on the big side and a bit burnt on the outside, but there were no complaints. She had asked for chilli on top which was not a problem. While sitting in some nice comfy chairs by the window, I noticed that they do a Sunday lunch on a Monday for a good price, so look out for that (£14 or £16 for 2?).

Just moved into the area. Delighted to find such a lovely local with delicious homemade food. I had the roast beef which was very tasty. I can see why the pub was full on a Monday. Landlady was very welcoming.

Absolutely terrible, all day breakfast, sausage was older than the waitress. Over cooked, poorly presented over priced rubbish. Gone down hill for sure

Superb meal good strong menu staff helpful and friendly a pleasant feel to the pub in bar dining and a pleasant out door seating area throughly enjoyed the food well cooked and piping hot

Enjoyed my meal here, service was good and very quick. Haddock and chips was ok but not up to the standards i have previously enjoyed when eating here. Not bad but just noy as good as normal.

Had a meal at this pub recently. Were a bit sceptical about a meal in what we thought was a chain restaurant. How wrong could we be. We had a lovely meal served by some friendly staff who welcomed our Cocker Spaniel on a Summer Day.

called friday night to book a table for two on sunday (fathers day) for my wife and I,just managed to get a table,so glad as the food was fantastic as usual,roast turkey and apple crumble for sweet,could not fault it.

Called in at the 3 Kings when passing and was very pleasantly surprised. The bar girl was very good and soon found us a table. The menu was varied and the portions decent. The standard of the meals was very good too. Everyone in our party of four fully enjoyed their meal. A large pub that is also dog friendly which is unusual. Worth a visit this one

Stayed here for 1 night with my wife, and although I would recommend the food and would return if in the area for a meal, I wouldn't recommend staying at the pub.

Very nice rural pub,good food if a little pricey but most are now,very good accommodation recommend

Couldn't really ask more from a pub tbh - had a variety of things on the menu, service was prompt and friendly and plenty of seating. We felt very comfortable bringing our (giant!) labrador here and he had plenty of attention from the two ladies who ran the place. I highly recommend coming here if you want somewhere to come with the dog as we felt VERY welcome (which, weirdly, isn't always the case even if a place *does* state they're dog friendly).

The rooms were set just outside the pub adjacent to parking area with some rooms next door to the small outside sitting area which was noisy. Compact rooms were clean but tired looking - not quite with the flowers as in the website photos.

A constantly changing range of ales and a generous assortment of lager. All served in a cosy friendly enviroment. Never a bad pint, supplied with Kims special smile

Great pub with a varied range of good quality food. Good range of ales and lagers. Kim at the bar always gives a special smile.

We booked for overnight bed and breakfast. We were given room 104 which was a twin room as requested. Unfortunately the beds were the most uncomfortable we had ever slept in. The mattresses were hard and lumpy. As if the uncomfortable beds weren't enough, the people in the room above decided to have a 20 minute very LOUD POWER SHOWER at 2 in the morning followed by several loo flushes during the night.

Arrived 5 mins before food service ended lunch time. No cider, no jacket potatoes,no pickle, chips were dark brown and reheated which we sent back. Sour dough rolls were pappy and looked like they came out of a plastic bag. Staff at the bar were very apologetic and polite. This place could be a gold mine!!!

Great atmosphere and really good food. Staff are excellent.

Best inn, food and beer and the best hostess I've met

The Three Kings is a dog friendly pub with a cosy feel. The front of house staff are very friendly and attentive. The staff sorted a children's portion of adult menu food with no fuss. It's probably a nice place to have a few quiet drinks.

There is a very good deal on a Friday for two people to have fish. We have been many times on our own but took one son with us this time. The staff had been very busy all day and yet still treated us with care and attention.

I stayed at the Three kings as I was on a training course in Bury St Edmunds.

This is a old pub with lovely coach horses feel to it the staff make you feel so welcome. The food is the best pub food I have ever eaten. I would recommend there steak and ail pie. So yummy. The hotel rooms are so welcoming And and warm. Private bathroom and tea and coffee. I recommend this pub highly. And cant wait to stay again.

Lovely home cooked roast dinner and a excellent service and atmosphere # my local

Went to the Three Kings for a meal with a close friend. For some reason id never been before.

Lovely little village pub, friendly staff and excellent food reasonably priced. Staff were warm and friendly. Good choice of food on the menu

Very cramped seating, food only warm not hot, small portions too interier furnishings very tired. Not impressed!!!

We’ve called at this pub a few times. It’s well situated near a busy roundabout. Plenty of parking.

Staff friendly and service good, potato unfortunately was slightly undercooked!

The landlady is great, she works so hard, but has a smile and word for everyone. Great homemade food, lovely room, shower is a bit dated but room so comfy and welcoming.

Stayed here twice now on business during the week. Been good each time. Staff are friendly, their nice selectoon of food is good and reasonably priced along with beer. Rooms are pleasant and not on the road. Dog friendly +

First visit to the The Three Kings and all aspects were absolutely amazing. Staff were polite, attentive and friendly. Food was delicious and freshly cooked. Highly recommend to all.

We stayed overnight with our 2 dogs and were made to feel very welcome by all staff and customers. The price was very reasonable and included a good cooked breakfast and tasty treat for the dogs.

We stopped here for dinner last night on our way home from Mildenhall. We have been here once before and didn’t hesitate to stop again because it is so dog friendly. Our Standard Poodle goes nearly everywhere with us so dog friendly is important when choosing somewhere to eat. The food is plentiful and of a good home cooked standard. I had the fish pie which was packed with fish and the side vegetables were fresh and cooked well. My partner had the cheese burger which looked really good.

Just been to the Three Kings for 2 for £12 roast, (having phoned earlier in the day to make sure the roast was on) told that there was only 2 gammon left it was 6.30pm! My husband and I decided to have the sausage, mash and peas, the mash had been warmed up from possibly the day before, not very tasty. My daughter and grandson went for the nacho burger, we had to ask for the sour cream and gauclamole that should have been in the burger! My daughter only appeared to get half a burger, it was incredibly small! Staff were friendly and apologetic but that didn’t make up for a very poor experience, will not be going back.

This pub has a real home-y feel to it. Food was good, staff was extremely nice, and it's dog friendly.

We had a lovely meal here at the weekend. The pub is very dog friendly which is great. The food was delicious & the staff were very friendly & helpful. Would definitely return.

Just been to the three kings for Sunday lunch omg, I never have a roast diner when going out, as I’m a bit funny with my veg and potatoes, I see them bring someone’s out and thought I’d give it a try, was absolutely amazing and couldn’t fault any of it, I would normally save some for my dogs, but kept looking thinking I really can’t part with this they did get some in the end. the owners are really welcoming and friendly and came and asked if our dogs would like some meat which they fed to them, I did not leave here with one bit of dissapointment.

Big family group lunch after a wedding -we filled the restaurant. Preordered food from a big menu. Well presented. Prompt service. Great food well prepared. Very good value

We stumbled across this pub/B&B; and had lunch. The staff are lovely and friendly. The food is home cooked and absolutely delicious. I'd definitely recommend it

For what we got for our money, I would suggest, the quality, and quantity was very poor,quiche you could ring water out of,bland sausage rolls, sandwiches ok, but very sparse, great if you like crisps.

Should you prefer pretentious food served on a slate with jus, don’t bother eating here! We were served excellent roast dinner with fresh vegetables all beautifully cooked and presented. The service was excellent and not over pushy. Lovely to visit a proper pub.

Thank you Wendy and Tracy. Yesterday was our wedding and you ensured that the reception was superb. The room and food were a delight. You carried out our requests to the letter. Your staff and chefs prepared delicious, well presented food and you all sre to be congratulated. The whole event represented excellent value for money.

I love this little Pub. The food is good. Lovely and hot. Staff are very friendly and nothing is too much trouble. Had my Wake here after my moms funeral, and I didn’t give them much notice. Yet they catered for 20 of us with Sandwiches and Snacks. They went out of their way to help me.

Thoroughly enjoyable Good Friday lunch at The Three Kings. The Friday special value fish and chips were delicious, and the straight from the oven berry crumble very tasty. The welcome was genuine and the service superb, if we lived nearer we would go frequently, highly recommended.

We stopped here for lunch today because the signs outside said that it was dog friendly. What a wonderful welcome we received, including Barley, our Standard Poodle! The staff were so lovely. We were shown the menu and also the "Specials" board and told that on Fridays you could face 2 x fish and chips for £15.95. I was surprised that they even honour this on Good Friday. This is what we ordered because it sounded really good value for money. We were not disappointed. A big, moist piece of fish covered in crispy batter and a bed of hand cut chips and peas that were not dried up green bullets (as often happens in other establishments) and a good dollop of tartare sauce. Gorgeous! We then had the homemade crumble straight from the oven. We will definitely be returning!

This pub provides good traditional pub food. Reasonable value for money and very friendly service. Specials board and different offers on during the week.

We were visiting Fornham All Saints to view a house and popped in The Three Kings for lunch. I was worried because it was 1.50pm and they had a notice they serve lunch until 2pm so I thought they'd say they'd stopped serving. The young barmaid was very polite and friendly. I asked if we could have a Sunday Roast. The carvery was full but she said they could plate up a roast for us. We chose beef. It came and was delicious. I asked for horseradish,extra gravy and some peas. It was given to us very promptly and with a big smile. The atmosphere was lovely and they didn't have loud music playing which is such a relief.

Staff very nice and meal very good as well

I try and visit different eateries weekly. I made the mistake of trying this pub. Poor. I was greeted with enthusiasm by the server and asked what I would like to drink before I even found a seat. My drink of choice is bitter lemon...

the food is marginal. I have been there 4 times now and have not been impressed at any time. It lives up to the reputation of British food.

Popped in for a drink after viewing a property in the area and was greeted by the lovely Kim - who made us feel like we were already one of the locals and was amazing with our adventurus 1 year old son. Its a beautiful...

A friendly pub and staff, we chose to have starters which we shared for our lunch. Service was friendly and...

Not bad , bar staff are friendly.
