Woodton Kings Head in South Norfolk

The meal was excellent and the service was very good. All in all a good value meal which was extremely tasty. All the food arrived hot.

A new lease of life for this village local. Now run by Sammy and Chelsie who also run the ever popular Roti, Indian Restaurant, in Norwich. We visited on a Friday night. The bar was busy with locals enjoying an early evening drink with darts and pool also on offer. The food offer in the adjoining restaurant is Roti Two and the food is just as good. Roti manage to produce flavoursome dishes without blowing your head off although more spicy dishes are also on the menu. Good choice of veggie dishes too. Service is impeccable and prices very reasonable.

It was the best dinner of my life. The food was simply delicious. And the staff here were very friendly and their service was very fast. All in all I enjoyed a very nice day🖤

This pub was recommended to us as somewhere good to eat. The southern fried chicken was not as expected. Thought it would be coated real chicken but what we were served was something from a freezer pack and was clearly shaped/re-formed and coated with spicy breadcrumbs. My friend had lasagne and said she had had better from Lidl. We were disappointed and would not return.

We ordered two steak and ale pies which were delicious as was the syrup sponge and ice cream dessert. The staff were really helpful and pleasant which made our lunch very enjoyable. Will visit next time that we are in the area.

Tracey y Bob y su equipo de personal organizaron la recepción de boda más increíble para nosotros. Fueron brillantes trabajando alrededor de todas las limitaciones de distanciamiento social y se aseguraron de que todo estuviera escrupulosamente limpio.La comida era increíble, el ambiente insuperable y no puedo elogiarlos lo suficiente. ¡El pudín de caramelo pegajoso recibió críticas muy favorables de todos! Todo fue especialmente bueno ya que se aseguraron de que todo estuviera libre de nueces.¡No puedo recomendar lo suficiente! ! !

I’ve visited the pub twice and absolutely love the carvery, amazing value for money and great quality food. The best nut roast I’ve ever had and the man serving the carvery knows exactly what is vegetarian etc, no thrills decor etc but that doesn’t bother me, anytime I’m in Woodton I will be revisiting

Tuvimos un buffet aquí después del bautizo de mis hijos, la casera hizo todo lo posible por nosotros, decorando la habitación, brindando un delicioso buffet e incluso llevándonos pastel a todos. ? Nos encanta este pub, ¡solo desearía tener el tiempo para disfrutarlo más a menudo!Encantador, acogedor y agradable pub de pueblo con deliciosa comida tradicional de pub, ¡no podría pedir un mejor local!

6 de nuestra familia se reunieron en Woodton Kings Head y se sentaron en su hermoso jardín a la luz del sol disfrutando de una bebida antes del almuerzo.Luego fuimos al pub para nuestra comida reservada.El pub admite perros, pero solo en el bar. Pero eso estaba bien.El asador era excelente mucho para comer.GraciasDavid sea

El asador estaba bien, pero el servicio y el ambiente en el pub era horrible. Al llegar tuvimos dificultades para llegar al bar debido a que las personas que conversaban con el personal del bar nos ignoraron. Los pubs dog estaban enfermos en el piso frente a mí, pero solo se mostró preocupación por el perro, no se disculparon por mí, se colocó una silla sobre los enfermos antes de ser limpiados después de que hubiéramos ido a nuestra mesa. No había nadie detrás del asador cuando pasamos a buscar nuestra comida, el hombre que llegó nos preguntó qué carne queríamos, la puso en nuestros platos y luego volvió a desaparecer. Sin duda nunca volveremos aquí de nuevo y no lo recomendaría, muy decepcionado

My local pub, really lovely people and it’s dog friendly , the food on the other hand is absolutely amazing, quick service and the taste is amazing, 1000% worth going to

Had wake here last week although plenty of food not that exiting only shop bought quiche spring rolls sausage rolls few sandwiches , would not recommend for Quality or variety given cost .....

Went here for a carvery as it’s local to where we live. My Husband thoroughly enjoyed his meal. A lovely little pub!

Been 3 times in may, had different meals each time, landlady couldnt do enough for us, food superb, dog friendly, good beers, lots of events organised, good varied menu, couldnt believe how reasonable the food prices were

Went today with family , every thing cooked to perfection!!! Meat perfect / veg perfect , nice touch sausage and stuffing... Quality guaranteed ...

Had a spread put out on for a function, the food for the money per head was really poor, the staff had been overheard being rude, the customer service was non existent. Very upsetting to an already upsetting day. Would not recommend for functions.

We decided to try the sunday carvery at the kings head after many sucsessful week day visits and so glad we did.Thw welcome was friendly as always and the food was top class.

I work locally to the Kings Head & when I am not travelling we have lunch here at least once a week??? The chilli is homemade & has a proper kick. Service super friendly. Locals & atmosphere super friendly.

Good honest Sunday roast carvery Great staff would recommend and go back thanks for a great Father's Day lunch

Always friendly staff. Food quality is widely recognised and known to be excellent. Sunday lunch is to be experienced. Adnams beers plus a host of others. Pleasant and quiet garden. Well behaved dogs are welcomed.

The food in here is Amazing,Bob the chef knows his stuff. The staff are very friendly lead by Tracy. The food is very reasonable priced.

Hade a very enjoyable meal. A very friendly atmosphere in this pub. The food was very tasty and the staff were all very friendly. Would definitely return. Good value as well and Woodforde's Wherry was being served which was a bonus

Decided to visit kings head woodton for lunch today and was taken by the venison with red wine jus....and glad i was.It was an absolutely fantastic meal. Highly recomend this pub for food and great service. Give it a try you wont be disapointed.

Tratando de encontrar comida en cualquier lugar que es bueno cuando no tienes reservado en fronteras Mothering sunday en lo imposible, pero el Kings Head apareció eclipsa (si es políticamente correcto a usar ese término ahora? ) Nos dieron una cálida bienvenida y nos ofrecieron...

Visitamos el kings head para el almuerzo en el 25 de febrero. Extremadamente amable con la comida de pub y un excelente servicio. A un precio razonable y bien merece una visita si estás por la zona bungay. Muy recomendado.

First visit,friendly atmosphere, hard working chef produced some fine looking lunches for a working lunch party. Then ours arrived, vegetable risotto, and gammon,egg and chips. All lovely and hot and well cooked. Will try a Sunday carvery next time.

We visited on a Tuesday evening to find a busy bar and one other table of four in the restaurant. We ordered three starters and three steak meals. The food that arrived was beautiful but that was when it arrived. We had a very long wait for both courses much longer than what was required for just 7 covers.Food was good and we will return.

We were made very welcome at this lovely little pub, the carvery offers a good selection of beautifully cooked meat , vegetables and all the appropriate accompaniments. There were comforting desserts to follow and we were able to have as much time as we wished to enjoy our lunch.

Kings Head WoodtonExcellentfood. Carvery and specials menu . Lotso of different things going on in evenings. A friendly pubs .

Very comfortable with all the staff at ease in their work. The Kings Head at Woodton is excellent in every way. The food is delicious couldn't fault at all and the hygiene excellent - but one thing I would recommend is that staff had some type of hair covering! EXCELLENT EXCELLENT WELL WORTH A VISIT

We had a Christmas themed carvery lunch. The plates were piping hot. There was a choice or roasts and we helped ourselves to a wide selection of perfectly cooked vegetables. I chose the beef which was very tender. All the sauces were available in generous quantities. They were catering for a party of over 20 walkers and they did a good job. We got a starter, main and afters for under £20. After a recent just adequate lunch in another pub this was a huge improvement.

A group of twelve went for traditional Christmas dinner on a Saturday lunchtime..... lovely moist turkey, excellent vegetables and all the trimmings. Crackers and prompt cheerful service. Good value for money at £15.50 each

8 of us popped in for a quick lunch, during our lunch hour. We rang & pre ordered to save time & sat outside as it was a really lovely day. Chill really delicious and had a good kick to it. Service friendly & quick.

The food was excellent serviced by very friendly staff. Very small restaurant area which was very noisy. I was in a group of 6 and not easy to hear what each other was saying.My one big complaint was the dog was walking about the restaurant area, lovely friendly calm dog, but I do not think should be in the restaurant area.

The dining room was light and airy. The staff were very pleasant and helpful. We enjoyed our carvery lunch

Thank you for a lovely meal! I had Sirloin Steak with Peppercorn sauce. The Steak was beautifully seasoned & cooked perfectly (medium) peppercorn sauce was to die for & there was plenty of it. The service was friendly, efficient & nothing was too much trouble. We shall be visiting again. "A gem of a pub in a small village"

Had a delicious meal of pan fried fillet of salmon with a superb mussel and shallot sauce with perfect fresh veg. Service was excellent. I shall definitely be eating here again. Lovely evening.

Would like to thank Bob and Tracey for making me feel at home. In fact just like a local. This also extends to the locals themselves!!! Bob and Tracey are welcoming hosts and nothing is to much bother for them.Their service is first rate and the food goes way beyond excellent.I would recommend anyone in the area take their time to visit the Kings Head and sample their hospitality and of course the food!!

Bob and Tracey are fab,friendly. Food was 1st class,lovely atmosphere the locals are also friendly.You have to try this place

We were shown into the function room, I agree with another review in that it had the atmosphere of a village hall. Food took an hour to arrive and was typical pub food, nothing special but ok. It took 20 minutes for our dessert order to be taken and 20 minutes to get them. Sticky toffee pudding arrived with no toffee sauce just dry cake! Karaoke started and at that point we could no longer talk to each other as it was so loud. They need to decide whether they are a restaurant or entertainment venue as the two do not work. Will not be going back.

We went to this lovely Pub/Restaurant after hearing about it from a friend. It did not disappoint. The Pub is very old and tastefully decorated with a very pleasant atmosphere. We were greeted by the landlady and shown to a table. The menu was interesting a mix of traditional Pub meals and Fine Dining. As a starter we had a "Combo" between us. Everything was cooked to perfection. I followed with the excellent Homemade Lasagne, delicious. My husband chose the Sausages and Mash, he said the sausages were delicious and it was lovely to have a good portion of very tasty gravy. We decided on a dessert when we saw the menu. I had the Homemade Bread and Butter Pudding with custard and my husband the Homemade Sticky Toffee Pudding with Ice Cream, a perfect end to a lovely meal. Had a very pleasant surprise when we go the bill as it was very reasonable for the quality of the food and the pleasant service. We will definitely visit again.

We have eaten twice here once being a Sunday Carvery, both times the meals were lovely especially the Carvery. friendly place.

We visited on Saturday evening and after reading previous reviews were looking forward to a great evening with family. We were shown into the "function room" which had all the atmosphere of a village hall, with regimented tables covered with plastic table "cloths" which frankly had seen better days. The lack of furnishings also causes the room to be very noisy and made conversation very difficult. Having ordered our meals from what was left "on" the menu (at 19:30 we were told that several of they had run out of several of the dishes) we then waited 3/4 hour for our mains. Normally this wouldn't have been too much of an issue, but when only one of them, fish and chips, was freshly cooked we thought the delay somewhat excessive. Even when the food did arrive it came 2 plates at a time with a 3 or 4 minute gap between relays. 3 of us had ordered chilli which when it finally arrived, was adequate but was served on a bed of what bore a remarkable resemblance to microwaved rice, with 1 small piece of garlic bread and no sign of the salad in the photo on the website. One high point - the plate was at least hot. Maybe the delay in serving all 6 meals was down to the need for the microwave ?After the mains, we then waited a further 15 minutes to order sweets and 20 odd minutes for them to be served which, when 3 were sorbet and one was obviously bought in is hardly impressive. We even had to ask twice for the bill. And it's not as if the place was heaving with diners.Mid way through the evening the noise levels increased with karaoki in the main bar which was so loud, conversation which was already difficult became next to impossible.So after 2 hours to eat just a main and sweet, we gave up and left. Somehow I don't think we will be returning anytime soon, if at all.

Having heard that new ownership had a positive impact on this place, we've visited a few times to try the food. We haven't been disappointed. There is ample parking outside the pub which is easy to find just off the main Norwich to Bungay road, the B1332, in the village of Woodton. The bar area has a friendly feel to it and it is always well patronised with a group of regulars. There are some good ales on sale which, in my experience, are always well-kept and of top quality. The menu is wide-ranging and full of classic pub grub favourites. Various chalk-boards detail special dishes, or special offers for lunch and dinner. You can eat either in the bar area or in a dining room off the side of the pub. We have done both and feel that the dining room can feel a a little isolated. Many people would prefer this, though! We would opt for the bar area, where possible. Service is good and attentive and the food is of consistent quality. We have visited on the Wednesday steak night twice and found it superb value for money. The usual menu is also good value. This pub will certainly remain on our list of places to recommend.

A lovely pub with a great atmosphere helped by great hosts. The food is cooked to perfection. I have had the Chilli which was lovely but my favourite was the Salmon with Mussels in a white wine & shallot sauce. Others in our party enjoyed the fish &a chips and steaks. Great Pub! Will be returning.

One of the very few village pubs left in the local area. Recently taken over by a excellent husband and wife team. Spotlessly clean, friendly, real ales in perfect condition and proper home cooked food. My chilli con carne was excellent and great value for money. Definitely worth a visit. I'll be back!

Dropped into Kings Head on the spur of the moment one Sunday. Pleasing traditional and well run pub with decent food, though only a choice of roast available that day. However, we were so impressed with quality of food, service, cleanliness and overall experience that we will make a point to return on another day to sample full menu. If the quality is the same then will be worth it! Separate veg included am especially tasty cauliflower cheese (served in its own side dish) plus selection of veg and a separate gravy boat (a rarity these days) which was full to the brim with decent gravy (none of the weak watery stuff you gat served in some places!)

Popped in on the spur of the moment when passing en route to home. Still serving food at 8.3m, so decided to eat. Homemade Lasagna, served with salad and beautifuly crispy chips and a very nice Gammon steak, with two free range fried eggs. Really nice, and not at all salty.Good selection of beers, three real ales and very welcoming staff. Plenty of customers as well.

This is our local pub and we always enjoy the food and the whole experience, but tonight they excelled themselves. We visited with our sons, daughter-in-law and grandson. Our grandson does not like cheese so they made him a Pizza without the cheese and he was absolutely thrilled. Nothing is too much trouble and the food is cooked to order and the prices are reasonable. Excellent highly recommended.

Lovely, warm and traditional British pub with happy and attentive staff. Lots of seating area and nice fire, as well as nice additions of a Darts board and jukebox (shame no pool table, but understandable considering pub size). Nice restaurant with good food. Slightly expensive perhaps, but good quality nevertheless. Also, vegetarian options are a let down, as when we visited, there appeared to be only one vegetarian option (Lasagne) available. Can and should be easily sorted so everyone is accounted for. Overall, great pub and restaurant! Keep up the good work and also love the 2 for 1 pizza Mondays!

We have eaten here a number of times - the food is typical pub fare with some very nice specials too - the beer is fantastic there is always a selection of two or three draft real ales and its very well kept. The staff are fantastic and service is always good.. a clean and welcoming pub - the best in the area I think - highly recommended..

A great little village pub with friendly staff, cheap food and cheap drinks. We ordered two stone baked pizzas which were both really good, and there was lots of other traditional pub grub on the menu which I would definitely consider going back to try at some point. The staff were really friendly and attentive, always clearing dirty glasses. Lots of locals which brings a great atmosphere but you don't feel out of place if you aren't a local!

Very friendly atmosphere. Service is always with a smile and the are very attentive. Food is nice and excellent value for money. We go here at least once a month.

The Kings Head is a lovely welcoming pub. We eat in the restaurant regularly and did so again this weekend. The home cooked food is always fresh with good choices and great deserts. A relaxed and friendly atmosphere, great food and helpful staff. Highly recommended.

Myself and four friends had Sunday Lunch and it was excellent. Presentation was good and a good choice of fresh vegetables. There were two choices of meat, both were very tender. The choice of puddings was also very good. They also provide a good variety of meals on their normal menu. There is a separate restaurant area, and a lovely beer garden. They are also dog friendly which is an added bonus!

Enjoyed several visits to the Kings Head, bar staff very friendly, great menu of pub classics all at good value, good selection of local ales and a relaxed atmosphere. One of the best roast dinners we've ever had and two for one pizzas on a Monday is a cracking deal!Would highly recommend for a meal or a few drinks.

A friend and I decided to venture here for drinks and a meal. The choice of real ale on offer was excellent, with three local brews on offer, to add to the usual lagars and ciders. We ordered from the build-your-own pizza menu and were delighted to hear it would only take 20 minutes to be ready. During this time we were welcomed into the conversations between the locals and bar-staff, and were greeted by the landlord. Towards the end of our visit, my friend, who lives the best part of 15 miles away, claimed it felt more like a local for him than any of the pubs nearer to his home.We will definitely be visiting again, as the rest of the menu looked (and smelt) delicious, and we were assured that another selection of local ales will be coming soon.

we had a bad experience here , lots of flies , lager had bits floating in it and food was terrible , chicken breast cooked in a microwave , was like rubber , we kept hearing the ping ping of the microwave while sitting in the bar ,I don't recommend this place at all

We had a very enjoyable meal at this pub with its own restaurant area. The menu was very traditional for a pub (steak & ale pie, burger, steak, gammon, scampi, fish & chips, sausage & mash, lasagne & chicken breast) and they also offer build-your-own pizza and have a specialist night (eg curry) on a regular basis. We decided to go for the steak, which came with everything you'd expect; chips, onion rings, peas AND salad and a large mushroom. The steak was cooked perfectly and was reasonably priced too. If I had any criticism to make, it would be that the dessert options were quite limited. There was apple crumble, chocolate fudge cake or bread & butter pudding (or a choice of ice cream), all of which felt a little heavy after our lovely steak. The staff were friendly and helpful, and the service was prompt (bear in mind it was a very quiet evening).We'll definitely visit the King's Head again on our next trip in that area.
