The Kings Head, Lichfield

A nice enough pub with an older style front part and a modern conservatory type extension to the rear. The front bar has lots of armed services paraphernalia including 2 rifles over a disused fireplace. Real ale available.

Not a lot seems to have changed since the review by Soup Dragon below. The range of beers from the Marstons stable has been extended to include a couple of outsiders, so that as well as Pedigree and Hobgoblin, on our recent visit there were also Fullers Chiswick Bitter and Upham Punter from Hampshire - no local ales, then. The other two hand pumps were empty. We enjoyed our visit here, albeit a brief one as we had a few more pubs to do before catching our train to Tamworth to see the mighty Luton Town play. Would we have preferred to stay here for a few more beers? No, I think, has to be the honest answer, though I wouldn't mind calling again on a non-football day.
