The Kings Arms, Chapelhay, Weymouth

Good little quayside pub with superb views outside and plenty of little nooks and crannies inside. Friendly staff, but a tad disappointed to find only Courage Best and Directors on - albeit in excellent condition. Overall average.

A decent comfortable pub overlooking the harbour on the south side. Only a couple of ales available but they were in good condition. Has an extensive food menu and whilst not particularly cheap the food was of good quality. I had Ham, Egg and chips at £7.95 but it was excellent. This place is close to the Boot and neither should be overlooked when in Weymouth.

I LOVED this place. In retrospect it's got all that I hate about bad pubs. It's been said I don't like live music. That's not quite true. I like live music in the same way I like beer. I like it lots, but I'm fussy about what I'll have. There's a lot of scabby beer that I won't touch with a barge pole. The same is true of bands. So many try to cover up a lack of talent by increasing the volume. This place has decent music at a decent volume. It's clearly a "local pub for local people" - we were there the day after two of the locals got married, but we were made veery welcome. The ale selection mightn't be as much as in other pubs, but the two ales they had on were good. It's a "must visit" pub if ever you're in Weymouth.
