The King’s Head
We offer classics with a twist, such as a Mediterranean influence on British flavours. I always say that the food we offer is good, brasserie-style food.
The King's Head is a traditional coaching inn set on the green of the beautiful town of New Buckenham. A warm welcome from our team will greet you at The King's Head. Once inside, you can expect a cracking pint, a glass of lovely wine or a G&T at the bar, along with some delicious classic British dishes from the kitchen.
The pub is much bigger than it seems. To the rear of the pub, there is a charming dining room, lovely outside seating, and a grassed beer garden. Upstairs, there are five beautiful rooms for bed-and-breakfast.

“The service and the food was exceptional. We were only able to visit once during our short stay in the area but wish we were able to come here all the time. The staff were so welcoming and friendly!! Would 100% recommend, and hopefully we will be back up to visit again soon!”

our story
We offer classics with a twist – such as a Mediterranean influence on British flavours. I always say that the food we offer is good, brasserie-style – great food that's kept simple and done well. It is also about ensuring consistency and that the food we send to our customers is of the same standard every time.
I want to serve our guests food that makes them happy – I’m not trying to educate them. I also want to bring a sense of nostalgia to our diners by giving them food that reminds them of holidays and time spent with friends and family. Hospitality is all about satisfaction; you get instant gratification from seeing a plate of food leave the kitchen and seeing the guests having a good time and enjoying what you’ve made. That is why I got into hospitality.
We love the garden at The Boars. We have worked hard to get it how we want it. It is quite a unique pub garden. There really is nothing better than a bustling summer day and hearing people outside enjoying themselves, while we serve them the very best in local and British produce.
The best place to be is around the table, having food and drinks with people. So why not come to The Boars and The King’s Head, and let us take care of the hard work while you have a great time with those you love?
