Booked to have my hair just in Ongar early on a Saturday morning, I could hear my stomach rubbing by the time my hair was being dried, I asked the guy if he could recommend any local and he showed me the menu for this place, rally fancied the breakfast, so it was only a few shops up, ordered the medium breakfast, you can see in to the kitchen where your food is being cooked, had that and a coffee, I donât know what sausage they use, but there were the best ones Iâve ever eaten, I know next time Iâm in Ongar this is where Iâll be going from now on.

Visited for breakfast with my wife this morning and found that everything has improved since last visited. It has always been very good but now I think perfect. My wife and I had the pot of Earl Grey for two and the light breakfast each. The young girl who served us was brilliant, lively, welcoming and very very cheerful. The food was first class as was the tea. The price was surprisingly good for the food. Well done.

We visited for a belated birthday celebration for me. We have never visited before and are new to the area. I did read the most recent TripAdvisor reviews. I was not aware that the majority of the restaurant is situated upstairs and was quite concerned that my father who has had a heart operation and finds it difficult to make it up stairs at the moment had to climb quite a few - I should have maybe asked but it didn't occur to me until we were faced with it. There were not many seats downstairs so he didn't want a fuss made but it would have been nice to know. The service was attentive although fairly slow between courses we were not in a hurry so it didn't really matter. My partner is allergic to nuts and we did discover after his first mouth full of the hummus starter that there were nuts in it. The starter was changed without charge or fuss but it would have been good to have something flagged up on the menu to warn him and no one asked us whether there was anyone with any allergies - quite surprising in this day and age. The starters were very good I had the prawn starter with chilli. The main menu took a while but as mentioned before we were not in a hurry. The main course which was the Sunday menu was a bit variable - my partner had the beef which was sinewy my dad and his wife were not overly impressed with the pork either - it was okay but not brilliant. I had the chicken and although it was very filling the gravy was not brilliant. All in all a bit of an average experience hence the rating.

We took my Mum to the Kings Head for lunch as our son was over visiting from abroad. We hadn't booked but arrived around 12:30pm and luckily there was availability for a table. The staff were all very friendly, there was a specials menu and the normal everyday menu with a good choice of food. Three of us had the soup and one had the scotch egg for starters, then we chose the gnocchi, chicken caesar salad and fish and chips for our mains. The food was absolutely delicious, couldn't fault it at all. There was a nice atmosphere in the restaurant and what with the excellent service and good food we spent a very nice couple of hours in there. The restaurant started to fill up and was fairly busy for a Wednesday lunchtime, which shows it is popular. We would definitely go to the Kings Head again the next time we are in Ongar.Hello MrsSandraL,Thank you for the review! We're glad you had such a pleasant experience with us. We look forward to potentially seeing you again next time you're in Ongar.Kind Regards,Donal

Four of us visited last week for our monthly get together. This is a really picturesque pub in a beautiful setting surrounded by a lovely garden a ample car parks.The pub interior is great, mind the beam! The service was just right being friendly , welcoming and efficient. The food was something else.Two of our group ordered salmon and remarked that it was the probably best salmon dish they had ever been served.The beetroot tart got full marks from our vegetarian member. I had Hunters chicken that had been prepared in a turine and also got full marks from me.

We are so happy that this establishment has been taken over by Mr Lumpti. He is the owner chef, a very humble friendly guy. He is an excellent chef, my wife had an exceptional Dover Sole and I had a superb Roast beef. Brenda, our waitress looked after us really well, she remembered us from two years ago when we were regulars. We have no hesitation in recommending this venue for Sunday lunch and we look forward to trying the weekday offering.

Visited as a table of six for Sunday Lunch. Very enjoyable experience and the range of fish dishes was amazing (although a traditional Sunday lunch was also available). Various starters, and the Prawn Cocktail was particularly tasty. Most of us went for the sole with scallops/prawns, cooked to perfection, with a range of side dishes including an excellent cauliflower cheese. First class service throughout, especially as we unfortunately spilt some red wine but the staff response to the accident was exemplary.
