Real Ale Ray left this review about Kings Head
This really is a real ale paradise, 13 ales in total, 11 on handpump and 2 on gravity. The pub was busy on our visit and the sevice was fast and friendly. The staff are both knowledgable and welcoming. I went for the Green Jack Orange Wheat, Brandon Rusty Bucket and Tipples Longshore. Looking forward to a revisit.

Gill Smith left this review about Kings Head
Really enjoyed our visit to this friendly 2013 Good Beer Guide pub with a superb choice of ales. The ales are split between bars in a front and back room, but are detailed on a board. Enthusiastic about real ales, there is no keg. We enjoyed Brandon Grumpy Bastard and Fat Cat India Pale Ale.

Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about Kings Head
Old-fashioned (in a very good way), with a splendid choice of rare or unusal ales from mostly local breweries (e.g. Green Jack’s Orange Wheat Beer) on the 12+ handpumps divided between the two bars. Both rooms have basic furniture and plain decor - the front one being quite compact and usually with regulars sitting or standing at the bar, but there is much more space at the back. Bar billairds. Closer to the city centre than most of the other top real ale pubs in the Norwich suburbs, so probably the one to go for if on a quick visit. (NB - Review dates from March 2012.)

The Kings Head is a proper unaltered pub that is fairly close to the city centre.
I went in the room at the front of the pub and this was fairly basic i am not sure if there was another room behind the bar.
There was a good choice of micro brewery beers on the bar with six real ales on i had a drink of Buffeys bitter and this was a very nice drink there was also Woodfords Wherry and four more micro beers.
