Enjoyed a double rum with ice before a trip to the Old Fire Station. Nice pub with a good range of real ales and pleasant service.

Visited a couple of times on my travels, brilliant place. The food was good I only give food a 4/5 as the bar is set very high by my ladies home cooking. Welldone guys great pub.

Why change a winning formula? This traditional unpretentious pub served me up an excellent scampi and chips (large portions) and a very fine pint of Esthwaite bitter.
The friendly barman soon spotted and swopped my end of barrel pint for a fresh version before any harm was done.
Together with meeting and chatting to the ex mayor of Rochester, I enjoyed a very pleasant couple of hours here. Highly recommended (although I can't promise a meeting with the ex mayor...)

This is a really nice pub. Just right if you want that English pub feeling. Not to loud, just relaxing and you can actually talk to your friends and hear what they say.

The King's Head is a wonderful traditional pub with a very intimate atmosphere. We stopped by for lunch while passing through Carlisle on our travels. I had the smaller fish & chips while my partner opted for steak pie & chips. The fish was excellent, however the chips were quite thick & as such undercooked in the middle, plus there seemed to be mixed sizes (steak chips, French fries etc) so I left most of them, but it was reasonably priced, and I can imagine it's a belting little place on a weekend night. Lovely place, staff straightforward & attentive, kid certainly go back again. Just without the chips 🍟👍.

Basically I pop in here now and then on a Saturday after walking around the town and by that time I need to use the gents and have a sit down for 10 minutes. I always have a pint of Esthwaite Ale. Superbly kept. It's also dog friendly up to a point when not busy and there is a covered beer garden/ smoking area at the rear. Always seems to have cheerful regulars in.
