Fantastic sunday roast for myself and family - absolutely delicious with friendly bar staff and waitress team on hand. The death by chocolate dessert was certainly to die for.

Went for Sunday lunch. Roast was excellent with four generous slices of meat and nice selection of veg, in fact too much to allow for pud. Service was very quick and friendly.

Fabulous staff and food.. The Sunday roast is delicious and the puddings are a work of art. The deconstructed Black Forest pudding is amazing. Try it.

My family and I including grandchildren ate at the amazing Kings Head, Napton, on three occasions during our 7 day canal holiday. Service, menu, quality, value, the whole experience was FIRST CLASS. We would recommend to anyone without doubt. Well done Kings Head! Thank you. McKinnell and Ferretti families.

What a good pub with a great food experience. A modern menu with some classic pub grub but a portfolio of interesting and well executed plates that are just enough to be different without challenging the feint hearted. Prices slightly above average but the quality is way above that so relax... the staff are well trained and above all very friendly. In the top 10% of British food offers I've ever visited (and I've visited many)

Even though we live a fair distance away and have to drive there, we have eaten here many times, today's experience wasn't the best. We were seated in the bar area with other people seated much to close to us, very cramped. My wife's meal (Sunday roast) was excellent, but my choice beer battered cod & chips was poor. The fish was way over done to the point of the batter being almost black. Don't know whether chef has changed as the meal is usually spot on.

The food was of excellent quality and beautifully presented. The service was efficient and friendly. However, despite having booked a table well in advance, we were seated in the bar area and the noise levels were excessive and thus spoiled the overall dining experience. On our arrival at 7pm there were not many people there, so we did not envisage a noise problem, had we done so then we would not have accepted that table.

Having visited the Kings Head on a regular basis for the last few years I can honestly say that we have never had a less than good meal, usually rated as very good or excellent. Interesting menu which includes some pub standards but usually with a twist. Staff are always attentive and presentation is excellent. often busy but never too crowded.

Been many times before. Food was excellent again and service was also great on a busy Friday evening. The Kings Head has a really good atmosphere, a lively buzz. All in all a really good venue for meeting friends I strongly recommend anyone to experience an evening at The Kings Head.

For the 1st time ever I have to give a 3 The food was as always fantastic, when it arrived! But afraid service let this visit down! I totally understand that The place was rammed & a huge party came in just after us but to wait 30 / 40 mins after being seated for our order to be taken & To then order more drinks & they do not actually arrive! Just a little frustrating! Fair play to the Staff as they were run of there feet! But just not enough to cope with a packed restaurant! Will be back for another fab service / meal very soon as always Cheers Craig

Nothing was too much trouble for the staff, and the food was excellent. - the only difficulty lay in deciding what to have! The roast was the final choice, and one that I am very pleased I made. Tender and very tasty and plenty of it. Would I recommend The King's Head? Without hesitation.

An excellent lunch menu today. Friend from South Africa was impressed by the quality and price of what was on offer. Good beer and a very drinkable South African wine .Pretty crowded for a Tuesday lunch but staff were cheerful and very busy. Have taken French visitors there in the past and they have been amazed at the quality of the food.
