How is The Kings Head rated?

On a very cold day, after a good country walk, we wanted a pub meal and fell upon this place!! We got a great welcome from the minute we stepped in the door! The place was full but we were welcomed, seated and served quickly....The vegetarian fish and chips was the star meal!! It tasted brilliant and the owner was excited to discuss how we liked it and took the time to explain how he made. It was brilliant as was all the other dishes we had. Along with the great beers and mulled wine we had a great time before we walked back.More

Best Burgers and Beer in Stamford

The Kings Head is our favourite Stamford pub. Just off the main High Street, it is a hidden oasis of cosy, traditional charm. Incredibly well run by friendly and efficient staff. It is waiter service only, which cleverly avoids the usual battle of thirsty punters...at the bar. Not having eaten there in a while, we decided to try the burgers. They were incredible! I had a ‘Dunker’; cheese and bacon burger with dipping gravy. Honestly, it was the best burger I have ever eaten. My husband, was just as enthusiastic about his ‘Slaw Galore’; brie and coleslaw. The fries were crispy and hot. Perfect! We are already planning our next visit.More

An afternoon well spent

Came here yesterday with my husband before an event we were in Stamford for. Only went in for one drink but we enjoyed your heated beer garden and good music so much we stayed for hours. Thanks to your amazing & attentive staff!!

Service, Food & Drink 5 Star

Me and 3 friends of mine for the first time went to the Kings Head for lunch and were definitely not disappointed. We were all very impressed what we were served that day and all agreed it was fantastic food. Even had a dessert too....Drinks selection there was excellent too. The atmosphere and the staff were excellent too. We were so impressed that we went there back for an evening meal and again were excellent. I would definitely go back there again with my wife and already arranging to go back there for lunch again with my friends during December. Thank you for lovely food and service. Would recommend the Kings Head to anybody.More

Excellent service and food

A wonderful experience. From the booking online to being greeted and served by friendly staff and excellent food, we had a great time. The food was excellent, piping hot, tasty and great portion size. The staff were attentive and friendly but not in the way....Would recommend this place for lunch no problem. Only gripe, please serve coffee for people that have eaten there, it would have rounded off the meal nicely. Will be backMore

Can’t believe we never visited before! Very cozy and inviting place. Visited with my partner and our little boy on a Sunday afternoon. Found a space in the outside garden which was nice and quiet. Food and drinks were great. Will definitely return again.
