Will Larter left this review about Kings Head

The table service thing is a bit odd, when the barman is standing around doing nothing, while you sit at a table waiting for a server. But everyone is very pleasant and I was served within two minutes of arrival, and given the small bar counter, perhaps it's a good system. There are two beers and a Rosie's cider on the five hand pumps, the beers being from Bakers Dozen, Sinc and Electric Landlady, which was always how I thought of Jimi Hendrix's magnum opus, so it was an easy choice for me. I don't think it's a very good beer, to be honest. My temporary table companion (because everyone has to have a table) had obviously suffered in the downpour an hour before, so I asked him about his walk. He was backpacking with a tent and hadn't booked a camp site, so was hoping to find a willing farmer to offer him a corner of a field. I wished him luck, and thanked whoever's in charge that my packbacking days are well behind me.

“Silly table service, poorly executed” is all I have in my notes, I decided to walk on as I didn’t have the patience to fiddle about with their Jamaican attitude when there were plenty of other options on a time-limited afternoon. GBG listed.

There is still a table service policy in this pub, which I get as the interior space is quite limited and I suppose its easier to have people seated than crowding around the small bar area. Four ales on handpump, Grainstore and three from Bakers Dozen Brewery Sinc Stream, Straight Outta Ketton and Cuthbert's Fee.
I went for the Bakers Dozen Sinc Stream, a classic English Bitter, which was very good. Staff were friendly and obliging.
