Best place I've ever been too, amazing food, awesome experience and very friendly staff! Highly recommend! �
Third visit and has never disappointed.
Food is outstanding , service is incredible put together with fantastic surroundings.
Not the cheapest place to eat but well worth the pennies.
Amazing everytime we go. Havent been for a while but everytime i have been the service has been the very best and george is the best! The duck oh my god! Never had any duck better ever and doubt i will. Amazing!!
This is a gem of a place, been here a few times and the food is amazing as well as the services. if you are looking for a lovley night out witgh good food this is your place.
Well worth the journey of 120miles to experience the 7 course taster menu. Service was wonderful, food outstanding and will certainly return.Georges is a national treasure
Lovely food and service i had the beef and it melted in your mouth,i will definitelybe going again.
If you want a very special meal go to the Kings Head, it’s wonderfu in an old world sense. We went for my daughters birthday just before Christmas and again for mine last week. Both times were excellent. I remember going there thirty years ago, I can’t think why it’s taken me some 29 years to go back. We only live 15 miles away which is just a half hour by car. It hasn’t changed I could kick myself for leaving it so long before finding it again.
Went there on Saturday evening what a truly wonderful old traditional English fine dining restaurant we had the Aylesbury Duck oh my god absolutely gorgeous. The waiter's were all fantastic so polite and nothing was to much trouble. For desert we had the crepes they finished off the whole evening perfectly.
Really enjoyed the spring menu last night great value very welcoming staff and superb food. Keen to return asap
We had an absolutely stunning meal at the Kings Head last night, everything was perfect. The service, food and wine were just brilliant and was so nice to have such a lovely (child free!) night out for my husbands birthday. Thank you
Fabulous food and perfect service - attentive without being in your face. Bon Appetit lunch menu is great value.
If you fancy spoiling yourselfs this is the place, great food and service.
Great local pub with wonderful staff and a fab selection of brews.... great place after a chilly dog walk or a hot summer cycle.
Some of the best food I've ever eaten if somewhat a traditional old fashioned setting. Would benefit from a minor refurb perhaps.
Thoroughly enjoyed every mouthful of the food we ate, the wine was devine and the service first class. Would always recommend this venue to friends and look forward to my next visit.
A warm welcome awaited me in this authentic old English abode, steeped in history. I ordered Clam Chowder, Rhoad island style! Ideal for merrymaking, or thoughtful retreat with that special someone.
Wonderful 21st birthday celebration dinner in the restaurant's private dining room. Annie helped to organise everything perfectly. The food was outstanding, as it always is here. A truly fabulous evening.
Had a lovely dinner here. Went for the duck as it’s their speciality. Was amazing. Staff, service and food was all great. Only thing was atmosphere. There wasn’t many people in the restaurant so it’s hard but there was nothing to fill silence. Was just very quiet but that’s all.
Lovely experience with friendly staff, the food and drinks were lovely and the meals were large portions. We will be back.
A seriously good lunch experience. Unhurried. Quality. Good value despite the cost. It's not cheap but you are definitely getting what you pay for. Well sourced, great quality ingredients, treated with respect by the kitchen staff. The drinks menu is again quality at, I would argue, a fair price. The half bottle of Claret was very reasonable. Service was attentive without being overly so. This was a first visit, but won't be the last.
Very good. Service could be a little friendlier. The duck is amazing.
Been here a few times. Food is good and service usually 5 stars however, on this trip attention to detail is staying to slip a little nervous service side.
Great choice, lovely food, helpful staff. Aylesbury duck is a must, and a special birthday cake produced for the occasion!
I recently celebrated my 50th birthday with 23 of my friends and family at the Kings Head, Ivinghoe and I have to say that everything about the evening without exception was outstanding. It just could not have been better.
The food was superb and delicious, several guests commented on the beef being the best they had ever tasted! Great care and attention was taken in every detail by the immensely professional and talented team led by Annie and George. All my guests were so impressed and we had such a lovely evening that I'm thinking of doing it again for my 51st!
Thank you so much.
First visit since lock down and happy to report all aspects of cuisine, ambiance and detailed attention were well up to the usual exceptional standards. Lunch set menu prices unchanged too so represent even better value. Many thanks to Jorge and staff for such an enjoyable visit. Hope to revisit soon.
The most incredible experience ever. There was no rush at all, very relaxed. I recommend reserving a table and if you wish, the duck as supplies are often limited but it is ridiculously good. Every single plate out of the kitchen was presented immaculately and was cooked to perfection. The price tag makes it something you wouldn't want to do every day (or even month really) but it's well worth it.
Excellent from beginning to end. They greeted us at the door and offered us drinks - we had drinks in the bar whilst perusing the menu. We were guided to our table and the courses came out in good timing. The haddock and salmon starters were absolutely delicious as was the foie gras. Two of had the duck which is must if available, and is very generous. The other two had the featherblade steak and lamb loin which were fantastic. You have to pre order that tart tartan but would HIGHLY recommend. The service… well it was next level… they anticipated every move or need and it was appreciated- for me it was it really was the quality of the food and outstanding service we had on the table. I cannot recommend this place enough
We went with two other couples for my wife's birthday. We all enjoyed perfect delicious high quality good served in an attentive and delightful way. We all had a fantastic afternoon.
We have been to the Kings Head several times before and really enjoy it as a location to celebrate key occasions.
Yesterday was as perfect an experience as ever before.
The King's head offers great French inspired food.
Elegant setting, well executed, delicious dishes and professional service.
We had oysters and soup followed by the duckling (highly recommended). A perfect tarte tatin concluded a wonderful lunch.
One of the better French experiences I've had in a while.
Some of the best food I have ever eaten.
Service is highest quality.
Lovely to see George still working after all these years. Inspirational to us all.
Aylesbury ducks from a local farm were the most amazing duck I've ever eaten.
This is an amazing place. For Sunday lunch, it specialises in roast duck, but they also offer a remarkably inexpensive table d'hote roast beef dinner, which we partook of. Fabulous. Proper roast potatoes for once! They do also offer a high-end a la carte menu, which is expensive. Wonderful ambience in a traditional setting with excellent service. Highly recommended for a special occasion.
Quirky quintessential Olde Worlde English restaurant. Food is magnificent. We had the specialities of Shared Roast Aylesbury Duck, carved at the table and Tarte Tatin, flambed at the table. Staff were friendly and efficient. Maitre De is brilliant.
Expensive but I doubt you will get a better meal.
