The Kings, Falmouth

I was really glad to see this pub come back to life. In younger days, this was a regular lunchtime watering hole, and full of people. Then it died away and for ages was all boarded up and looked terrible in the middle of a busy university town. The new people deserve success - decent beer, Porthleven my favourite, but HSD available, which seems hard to find these days. The food is really good - I had chicken provencale, which was great. Staff are friendly, too. I'll come back!

The Kings is situated in a kink in the road where Church Street turns into Arwenack Street. Once inside there is a roughly oblong shaped room with the bar on the rear left side,the floor is bare boarded. There are normal tables and chairs and tall tables and chairs plus a drinking shelf,there is a small area to the front which is carpeted and has settees on it. I was surprised to see any real ales on the bar,but there were three on,we had a drink of Rebel Surfbum IPA,which was a decent drink,the other real ales were Skinners Porthleven and Bath Ales Jem. Loud music was playing and it started to fill up as it was getting later on a Saturday night. We left to get our last few drinks in The Seaview. This pub caters for locals who are going for a night out. Pub visited 12/8/2017
