"It was my birthday, and my other half booked a room at the Kings Head as a special treat as we wanted to have a look around Lewes. Their website showed numerous photos of the newly refurbished bedrooms, and they looked very nice. We checked the menu while we were on the site, and much of the food seemed to tapas related, but there was also burgers, steak, fresh fish and fish stew, so we knew there would be something decent to eat. The room, The Brighton, was as expected. Freshly decorated with a sumptuous bed, brand new carpet and a bathroom with underfloor heating and even a sauna! 5 stars all the way. However, when it came to dinner, we 'd booked a table but that was totally unnecessary as the place was almost empty at 7:30 which was odd as the had live music from 8 pm. On being given the menu, we soon found out why it was almost devoid of other customers. The first page of the menu was almost entirely tapas, then baguettes. The burger turned out to be a vegan burger, and there were no steaks, fresh fish or fish stew as promised. The online menu mentioned a specials board, but when my other half asked about that, the young barman looked at her though she were insane and said there was no such thing. They didn 't even have so much as a position of crisps available!We left and walked into town to find a decent pub with food and a soul. When we returned to the Kings Head around 10:30 that night, the live music was in full swing.... but the place was still virtually empty. We saw 3 people inside as we trudged passed on the rain towards out room. In summary, the rooms are stunning, but the whole food issue needs to be urgently addressed. The current menu maybe okay for lunchtime, but is poor in the extreme for evenings. Stay there by all means, but go to another pub to eat!!"

This pub is great. It's unpredictable, friendly, and has fantastic beer brewed next door. The food is also excellent and perfect for a nice outing.

Attractive modernised interior with old motorbikes. Decent pint of Harvey’s and nice garden with views of castle... But... Noisy extractor fan in garden, poor food and unwelcoming staff.

Visiting Lewes with some business colleagues and was recommended to the newly reopened Kings Head, we all had a steak lunch and very much enjoyed it, very quality meat beautifully cooked and good service. The bar man was friendly and professional albeit a little quirky, I think they call him King Henry 9th !!!

Stopped off during a day trip to Lewis, the place has just been refurbished so nice inside the loo’s are not finished nice pint, and dog friendly, but the menu we found was very limited lots of Tapas dishes, but only 5 baguette dishes, needs a serious expansion of the menu to cater for lunches. Would not return

I frequent this restaurant often with my friends who live nearby (one of them is lazy and lives right across the street). It's a great pub that's perfect for large groups. The staff is very friendly and they don't tolerate any rowdy behavior, which is always reassuring. The beer selection is great and they have a variety of options on tap. I've only tried the ham sandwich here, but it was served on deliciously thick bread and was very enjoyable. The menu looks fantastic so I can't wait to come back and try more dishes. Overall, a great pub!

We arrived on a Thursday evening to find that it was “steak night” which means a steak meal for two plus a bottle of wine for £30:00. We were very pleased with this especially as there was a singer too. We got our wine which was very nice and awaited our meal but sadly it was such a disappointment. My rare steak was cooked medium, the chips soggy, the pepper sauce gloopy and nothing was seasoned so all fairly tasteless.A very helpful lady got me another steak which arrived in less than five minutes but that was almost uncooked and practically mooing! Such a shame as this pub is our local and we would like to support it but this is unlikely if they can’t cook steaks properly on steak night!

I called by this evening to get a meal for two. the kitchen was closed. when I asked if it was just tonight I was told no at least three weeks due to gas leaks and old wiring.. Not helpful when the pub having stood empty for a while is doing its best to reestablish its self. One of the bar staff stated there is no good time to shut a kitchen when I suggested that surely they had a survey done before taking the place on and that the time when it was closed prior to the grand reopening would have been an excellent time to sort out the kitchen I was asked to leave. Having used this pub since about 1970 I would suggest that the current management have more problems than the the broken sign hangi...
