Kings Arms - Menu

When an area is low on choices it’s even more pleasing when the one you go with works out. Really welcoming place (we even got chatting with a regular) and fresh, tasty food served promptly. Special mention for the excellent fish and chips and steak and ale pie.

Fantastic stay, just post Covid lockdown lifting.Lovely owner and her daughter plus great staff make this an amazing family run pub. Rooms are simple but clean, bathrooms enormous! Home cooked food just what you want for a hungry walker. Great start to our journey thank you. Simon, Liz, Dave and Sarah

We arrived at this pub after a 12 mile walk and never felt so welcome to a village pub. The food was excellent and the portions were very generous. The service was 5-star and extremely attentive to our needs. Lots of options to cater for gluten free too! Overall a fabulous experience and we can’t wait to go back!

What a great place! Here we had three meals off the takeout menu, we were all astounded by the quality and taste of the food, a simple yet effective menu. Whilst waiting a few minutes for the food we enjoyed a drink, where we found the staff to be very welcoming and pleasant. A fantastic experience and we will hopefully return again one day and have the chance to eat in with our food.

Great little friendly pub miles from anywhere. We were a family of five with two dogs so couldnt eat in the restaurant so always a bit wary of where we would be seated. Nice table with a few others eating around us so a bit of an atmosphere. Good reduced menu, thai was good, lamb chops were very good and the fish in batter was also very good. Staff were very friendly and helpful.Would recommend the few extra miles to try this pub out

My son and I drove over to Burgh on Sands, then on to Bowness for lunch. The mist and drizzle spoilt our chance to admire the views, but at least we had a fine lunch at the Kings Arms.The staff were extremely friendly, very professional and diligent re virus safety, and the meals were excellent. I had fish and chips which came with salad and mushy peas, and my son had steak pie with the same trimmings. Apart from the quality there was plenty of it. My son thought the real ales were decent (not great), and I played safe with Peroni (always good).

Decided to do a walk round Drumburgh and Glasson which should have been 5 miles however decided to do a detour to the King's Arms in Bowness on Solway. Rang up with 3 miles to go to check pub was open as 2 previous were shut) and serving food. Spoke with a lovely lady who told me they stopped serving at 3pm but, as we had done a long walk, would ensure we got something to eat. On arrival met with a friendly face and served great sarnies and chips with nice pint of Wainwrights. We came in this pub 8 years ago when we walked Hadrian's Wall and everything has been updated. Lovely pub and great staff, thanks for looking after us.

Spent a week in Bowness on Solway and the Kings Arms had been recommended to us by the owners of Solway Cottage. Our first impression driving past was that it was just a small pub and didn’t look anything special how wrong were we!The owners, Pam and Annette along with their family were some of the most welcoming, nicest, friendliest people we’ve ever met. We ate in there on numerous occasions throughout the week as the food was just excellent. All the meals are home prepared and cooked with the chips being some of the very best we’ve ever had.All in all we want to thank Pam, Annette, Sammie and Meg for making us feel so comfortable and wish you every success with your new venture.

The staff at this pub are amazing! Our wedding lunch was cancelled the day before due to the new tier restrictions. On a recommendation from the owner of the holiday cottage we were staying in we tried them for a last minute takeaway meal instead. Apparently they do not normally do this at lunchtime but as soon as they heard it was for our wedding they immediately agreed with very short notice. Choice of food was brilliant and all was absolutely delicious....home cooked, hot, good sized portions (and puddings were particularly good!)Without ever having sat down in the pub I would recommend it to all and when we return once Covid restrictions are lifted, we will certainly be looking forward t...
