Kings Head Review

A peaceful setting by the banks of the meandering River Yare is just the ticket for visitors who want to head out of Norwich and chill in a genuine village pub (complete with heavy timbers and bulging walls). The Kings Head has been providing sustenance and all the rest for more than 300 years, and it's been given a boost of late thanks to landlord Anton Wimmer and his kitchen team.

The interior has been lightened up and there's a great deal of global intent on a menu that roams far and wide for Peruvian escabeche of whitebait with chilli, coriander and red onion; spiced Moroccan chicken breast; crispy pork belly with spiced Puy lentils and Asian greens – not to mention braised oxtail with horseradish dumplings for those who like a lovin' spoonful of comfort with their food.

Peach Melba, boozy apricot trifle or hot chocolate fondant with Mascarpone and Kirsch cherries are some of the desserts you are likely to find.
