Quinno _ left this review about The Kings Head
Empty apart from me and another punter missing a couple of sandwiches in his mental picnic. Presumably this is the town's party pub, what with pumping music at 6pm on a Friday. Three bits to the interior which, whilst smashed about a bit, isn't too bad and the tiled flooring is tidy. Weirdly there's very little on draft and inevitably zero cask – I didn’t spot any pumps. A sub-standard Guinness to get me through, served by another sandwich-searcher. Very little to recommend it.

You might be lucky and find this one open, I have walked past midweek at 8pm and it was shut then at 10pm it was open, not much of a business plan I’d think. Probably not missing much, two bar areas in each arm of a big opened out L shaped space, a single hand pump on the counter in each but with reversed clips, with the weird and erratic hours the cask would not be drinkable anyway. Usual suspect kegs of course, clientele is similar to the next door Nags Head but more male, and the almost opposite Red Cow but younger.

Despite a reasonably nice looking exterior, inside is a rather unappealing open plan L shaped room of little character. A couple of TVs had an archive music channel playing, watched by nobody as I was the only punter at 5.30ish on a Friday afternoon whereas the nearby Nags Head was near to packed.
One solo handpump on the bar had a reversed Pedigree clip along with a basic keg lineup, I had a small Guinness which would probably have been my choice anyway.
Not great.
