| Much better news than my previous report! The Kings Head has been bought by George and Angie and, as I write, they are making preparations to re-open in a couple of weeks or so (perhaps mid-November 2008). More details and a proper review will follow. Please note the phone number has changed - it is now 01379 688007 shrublander - 29 Oct 2008 13:12 |
| Thatched country village pub a mile or so off the main Diss to Thetford road (or is it Thetford to Diss?) and the last of 4 pubs that were once found in the village. The future of this place is apparently in question as the owners are looking to sell which would be a great pity as the current knowledgeable and enthusiastic licencees appear to be doing an excellent job. 2 standard beers (Woodford Wherry and Adnams are complemented by a guest beer (Humpty Dumpty on my visit) usually sourced from one of the smaller local breweries. The main bar is dominated by a wonderful inglenook with stove, lots of brasses, old pictures of the pub, bottles and even a bugle. A grandfather clock ticks away in the corner, exploding into chime on the hour. Furnishings are fairly basic and rustic and behind a half timber screen is a large settle and interesting bottle rack. A separate public bar has another (apparently blocked) inglenook fireplace and traditional pub games including bar skittles, cribbage and shove halfpenny. 3 cats and a dog provide the entertainment along with piped music and quiz nights. A superbly run pub with good quality beers but perhaps a couple of pumps short of going up to the next level (a real cider and/or a mild would be welcome). It would be a shame if this place was lost as we found it one of the most welcoming pubs in the area during our short stay. RogerB - 2 Oct 2007 16:18 |
