About this restaurant

  • Dog-friendly
  • Neighborhood gem

The Kings Head is a traditional seaside pub in the coastal town of Cromer, right on the High Street and just a short walk away from its famous pier. The town is beautiful all year round, and, if a beach day isn't your thing, we're also within easy reach of the Norfolk Coastal Path - a great way to enjoy Norfolk's fresh sea air and dramatic landscapes. We're proud to offer a menu packed with the most appetising dishes. Our passion for taking traditional pub classics and making them the best around by using the most decadent of ingredients, makes every meal served have you coming back time and time again!

    Nice local pub which we hadn’t visited before but is dog friendly so perfect for our guests. Daisy, our server, was very attentive but we visited on a Saturday evening and it became busy and it was hard to get her attention, however the plus side is that we were not rushed despite it being busy.

    Extremely disappointing! We arrived to be told there was a 45 minute wait for food. When we went to bar we were then told that the kitchen wasn’t taking anymore order at the moment. We ordered some drinks and were assured that they would take our order shortly. Few minutes later, another staff member came over to say there was no more Sunday roasts and would we like to order from another menu! Considering we had pre-booked a table for Sunday lunch at 2pm! As said extremely disappointing to be told they had nothing left and that they had trouble with their food supplier. Given how busy the pub was (both inside and out) seams more likely that they had allowed too many walk ins. No offer of discount or free drink for the trouble.

    Long wait time, over an hour. Food was poor, not up to standard or as described on the menu (food items missing from the plate). All in all very disappointing to say the least. Member of staff did not charge for a large percentage of the meal. Apparently they had a new chef starting that day…. Cannot recommend ☹️
    Kings HeadResponded on April 1, 2025
    Dear Jane, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We're truly sorry to hear about your disappointing experience. It's clear we fell short on this occasion, especially with the wait time and the quality of the food. We appreciate your understanding regarding the new chef and will ensure these issues are addressed promptly. We hope you'll consider giving us another chance in the future. Best regards, The Kings Head Team

    Hi. On the day, one chef didn't came but the team managed to be on the top and were absolutely amazing. It has been though for them but they were keeping smiling, always smiling and showing outstanding customer service. Thank to them as it was my birthday and I was with very good friends. I won't be able to say as much I am grateful!!!
