The King's Head

Pros: The hotel and restaurant are beautifully decorated for Christmas. The service was exceptional, particularly thanks to Joseph. The food was delicious and served quickly at a high standard. Cons: None, overall a fantastic experience.

Superb Norfolk Restaurant Week menu much enjoyed by five of us....first class cheese souffle starter....generous flat iron steaks cooked to perfection and 'wicked ' desserts. All agreed amazing value with finest food quality backed with excellent service. We shall return.

Parking inadequate, on a Wednesday lunchtime in November there were no spaces and a number of cars needed to reverse out. On entering we were struck by the lack of atmosphere for a country hotel , it seems more like an inner city chain hotel. When we ordered informing the waitress that one of us had a severe nut allergy (just for information/safety), we were shocked when her response was yes, but do you like them? clearly there is a need for training! After all this the meal was excellent and the service during the meal very good. The lack of atmosphere and apparent lack of understanding of life threatening allergies, however, means that we won 't return.

Having not served evening meals or lunches for over a year, the fully functioning restaurant is a very welcome facility in the village. The menu is varied and not stupidly priced. What we ate tonight was well executed and ample portions. The food is highly recommended. Not reviewed as 5 star because a couple of our group didn’t feel they were made to feel welcome. Disappointing as we could become very regular customers.

Great hotel , ideal central location for visiting North Norfolk . Friendly staff , great breakfast and comfortable and clean well decorated accommodation. The hotel did warn us weeks in advance that evening meals were not available due to staff shortages, which is unfortunate as we have previously stayed here and the restaurant was very good but at least , with being pre warned , we made other arrangements for evening meals . We had considered staying at an alternative hotel but discounted this idea as the Kings Head represents good value for money and we will be rebooking for next year.
