The Kings Head, Woodbridge

A pleasant and traditional pub at the top end of the Market Square, internally it consists of one room split in to two by a large chimney breast. The young barmaid was very bubbly and friendly and engaged in conversation with all the punters. Décor wise it’s quite traditional with a heavy, ornate beamed ceiling, leaded windows, wood panelling on the lower part of the walls and inlaid timberwork elsewhere. Flooring was a mixture of red quarry tiles and carpet, whilst the paintwork was maroon and pale yellow. A number of framed Adnams advertisements were on the walls whilst the brick fire-place housed a real fire and a pile of logs was stacked up alongside ready for the colder weather. A couple of old leather sofas were a comfy spot to sit. The pub appears very dog friendly, and as well as numerous passport style photos of pooches adorning the walls, there was also a “Mutt’s Menu” should they get hungry. The snug to the right had a further large brick fire-place with a wood burning stove and a number of portraits of various kings, which seemed appropriate given the pub’s name. The menu was displayed on a number of boards above the fire-place and whilst we didn’t study this closely it appeared to include a number of pies at around the £10 mark. Beers on tap were all from Adnams with their Southwold, Broadside, Ghost Ship and Mosaic Pale Ale. The solitary cider was Aspall’s Suffolk.
