Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

First class service. These guys make you feel so special. Then the food was delicious without one of those complicated menus that you spend 2 hrs reading! And to top it all the prices won't empty your bank account. So, together with a real wood...fire 🔥 and glorious surroundings would definitely recommend this hidden gemMore

There are many places to choose from in Holt to have lunch, but we both thought that The Kings Head looked a great place for a bite and drink. I'm so glad we picked there as we had very tasty sandwiches, served with salad, coleslaw,...and French fries. I opted for a BLT on granary, which was definitely one of the best BLTs I've ever had. Be warned that you need a good appetite as we each only managed half of our sandwiches. The portions are extremely generous. We ate in the restaurant, which has been decorated for autumn, and it looked lovely. Both the bar and table service were excellent and very friendly. As I couldn't eat my sandwich, they wrapped it up to take it out. If this was local to us, we'd definitely be regular visitors. I have no hesitation in highly recommending. To get good food and goid service is great. Thoroughly enjoyed our visit.More

We holiday in the local area most years and always make time to visit this pub . Casual dining inside with a pooch in tow isn’t easy coupled with my mobility issues if you find a good place you return . The staff are friendly...and welcoming , Freddie dog got his own dish of treats which settles him nicely for a snooze 💤 under the table . Cromer crab salad was one f the days specials so 2 of us chose that served with either proper bread and butter or fries , one of the specials was belly pork with colcanon mash it was a generous portion and served steaming hot , the other meal of bbq marinated chicken and bacon in brioche bun was also generous and deemed tasty . Well worth a visit as there is outside covered seating , dig friendly bar and restaurant for a more formal dining experience .More

Good pub, nice atmosphere and very efficient bar staff. Cosy, oldy-worldy bar but with a modern twist, a good pool bar, large conservatory full of diners and a great beer garden. Good relaxed atmosphere. Loved it.
