First visit for us, not so for friends who live nearby and have been several times. It was their recommendation.Lovely old building in good order, well located, and with car parking aplenty just over the (quiet) road. We'd booked, and on entering were given the choice of seating in the bar or the restaurant. We took the bar - wrong decision, a fairly noisy party came in shortly after and our conversation almost ground to a halt under their noise.Ordered food; I decided to try the apricot nut roast which sounded nice. It all looked good when it arrived and my nut roast was tasty, though not very warm, and as it cooled further it became more and more stodgy - I left a chunk of it as it had developed the texture of sticky rice. My companions also left some of their food and expressed disappointment - "not to the usual standard" they suggested.We had just a coffee to finish - and that was delicious. Very, very good, strong and smooth.It's a lovely pub / restaurant; clean, smart, not a sticky table or menu in sight. I'd like to go back sometime and try again; it seems likely we were just unlucky and this place does havea good reputation.We are very sorry for your disappointing visit to the Three Kings. We hope to see you in the near future and if you care to make yourself known there will be a complimentary drink.Many thanks Tricia and Ian

I think Woodyâs is ok but improvements could be made.I had the Chicken Burger and it was very nice but the âhouse slawâ consisted of some garden salad so this was disappointing. I also didnât think there was a lot of choice for desserts. Would have liked to see a chocolate fudge cake or chocolate brownie or cheesecake. The rest of the party had desserts but didnât enjoy them due to the heaps of bitter fruit loaded on top. I think the decor is really dated and Iâm not sure we would hurry back.

The place is a lot bigger than it looks from the outside with several rooms to sit in. We were made to feel welcome as soon as we walked in. The burgers were excellent and all the food was presented well. We will return.

Whilst driving from Northumberland to North Norfolk we were driving through Leicestershire on the A17 and looking for somewhere to have a late lunch. There were not many places to stop until we came to the fast food outlets at Holdingham Roundabout. We wanted something a bit more substantial and, trusting to luck, we continued on and, a bit further down the road, I spotted a sign for the Queens Head Inn & Restaurant in Kirkby-la-Thorpe. A short detour off the A17 and it was like stepping back in time; a real old-fashioned eatery with padded carver chairs, a Grandfather clock, padded armchairs and well-dressed staff in white shirts and black waistcoats. The welcome was warm and friendly and, a bonus, dogs were allowed at the two tables nearest to the entrance. Although the décor may have appeared old-fashioned, there was nothing old-fashioned about the food. It was up-to-date, well presented and delicious. My wife is Gluten Free and there were plenty of options for her on the menu. How glad I am that I spotted that sign. This is one eatery we will remember and certainly visit again when we are in the area.

Once again I visited this venue and cannot fault their food , service or general friendliness. If I had to say something it was that there wasn't a need for so many people to enquire about the service/food. All was lovely and I am sure my friend would have agreed. The posh fish finger sandwich is excellent!

Visited for Sunday lunch today. We didnât actually have the traditional lunch but we did choose from the Sunday menu. Great choice and great value for money. First course was the pea & ham soup.....delicious! I had the mushroom risotto to follow which was very tasty and my husband had the sausage and mash which was perfectly cooked. Carol and Nigel are the perfect hosts and their attention to detail is reflected in their team.

Our friends invited us to the Bustard one weekend evening. It was fairly busy, but not full and we had a table in the bar, big mistake. The noise from the one or two locals at the bar screaming over each other was uncomfortable. I could not hear the conversation from the lady sitting next to me but hear every word from a loud individual shouting across the pub for well over an hour. After our dinner we went to the quieter snug area for some coffee and explained to waitress why we had moved, we couldnât hear ourselves think in the bar. She said they were regulars and usually the same, pity as it spoilt had our enjoyment. I could see the couple on next table struggling with the noise too. Starters were fairly nice although 2 of us had a £14 starter that was quite expensive for 2 scallops I thought. Following that there was nothing on the main course menu I liked the look of, I struggled to choose but settled on chilli, not really quality pub food more diner or cafe. And it was it wasnât even that nice, it had a mushy texture that smacked of being a little bit old and reheated. My husbands fish and chips he said was OK although the chips looked anaemic and he said they tasted under cooked. All in all a pleasant evening due to our friends lovely company rather than the food and at £150 for 4 it was an expensive meal out.A nice polite young lady served us but whilst I enjoy a relaxed informal experience I do so hate at my age being referred to as âguysâ, not just the once but over and over, can I get âyou guysâ anything? How you guys doing? Grrrrrrr by the end of the evening she got too much!
