"We were a party of six for a Sunday roast. Very reasonably priced and washed down by lovely Shere drop ale. Sadly though, the dinner/occasion was spoiled due to avoidable, sloppy service. (i.e it was not busy with diners) We waited a long time for menus, but then for the second time, after receiving our meals, we had to ask the young waitress for our cutlery. I blame this less though on the young lady, who was very pleasant and polite. As with every business, invariably most issues rest not so much with the staff, but with the owners, and/or management, not having control, and setting out clear working practices. We waited, and we waited, and some of us started to pick the food with our fingers. With no waiting staff in sight, I got up to ask a bar tender. I was assured the cutlery would be brought, and eventually it was, after about another three minutes. By this time, the food was luke warm. I think anyone would agree this is TOTALLY unavoidable and inexcusable. Why, this pub doesn't take the steer from virtually every other pub and have a vessel on the table with the cutlery and serviettes in, I just don't know. The food was very good, especially people's lamb which fell off the bone, and nothing was left on all six plates, but the bones. But big points deduction for not being able to eat HOT food! (And the fact the plates were not very hot didn't help either) We asked for the desert menus and then after about 10 minutes I had to grab the waiter. He seemed surprised and said he thought we just wanted to look at them! Well, what do people normally look at menus for!? It is not surprising to read another review saying it seems like this establishment is under new ownership. I know it is not, but this comment observes and reflects the fact there is little hands-on management of this historical pub. Of the many times I have visited the kings Arms, on almost every occasion the owner/landlady appears more on the other side of the bar, seeming more pre-occupied with drinking and socialising with her friends, and seeming intense and wired like she has been taking something a little stronger than alcohol. I and others have commented that this enterprise seems more like a trophy for her, as opposed to being something she has total pride in, and commitment to. It is a real shame, as this has the makings of a really good local pub."

Sunday roast is never like one at home but this came close. Staff really friendly, nicely refurbished restaurant area and a decent roast dinner. Tasty and enough of it to satisfy our son's healthy appetite.

Lady was pleasant, but i assume doesn't listen, how you get chicken wings from pork ribs i have no idea. Not everyone wants a dog begging at your feet when you just trying to relax and eat food you didn't order.

I just popped in for the single pint on a long walk. It was a quiet Friday afternoon and the ale was fine. The lady behind the bar was friendly enough, the pub’s full of character and they have free live music on a Friday. Get down here.

Visited a couple of evenings whilst staying opposite in Anchor hotel across the square. This is a comfortable pub with a relaxed atmosphere. Staff are very attentive. We had That food, ordered at bar and sat in top bar area watching football on high level screens, the food was superb and atmosphere great, what’s not to like! Recommended!

We visit Shepperton once a year and stay at Warren Lodge, we use the Kings Head for convenience and we were disappointed to learn that the Thai enterprise is no longer. However we carried on and tried the new food which I must admit was very tasty however service needs to get up to speed, lovely girl who served us but needs to get more with it. Wouldn't say no you shouldn't go here but also wouldn't say it was a must.

We booked for Sunday lunch a special occasion. We arrived slightly early to have a drink in the bar. Staff seem preoccupied and inattentive Altho we had booked we were told after Ordering due to a large party there was unlikely to be a roast left. We left the pub after our drink in total shock. The waitress/manager was so off hand. The food we saw looked pretty unappetising anyway tbh we felt almost fortunate to get out of there without eating! A very u happy experience. It’s a great pub/ venue with so much potential. Some staff training needed urgently. Suggest The Anchor over the road! Fabulous!

Owners puppies left nice mess for us to tread in and was told ‘well that’s what you get with a dog friendly pub’!!! They placed the puppies onto the actual bar not very hygienic. Barmaid was holding a puppy and when my husband went to order a pint, she gave puppy to someone to hold and preceded to pour his pint without washing her hands and no thought as to the dogs hairs on her jumper which could have gone into the pint! We are dog lovers and they were really cute but if they are not house trained, I don’t think they should be allowed in the pub. Having said all that the pub is lovely and Big Al’s band was superb. We shall definitely visit again but will watch where we tread!

While staying in the Warren Lodge next door on business, I decided upon eating at The King’s Head for my evening meal after reading the excellent Tripadvisor reviews about their Thai cuisine. Upon arrival however I was informed by the staff that the Thai restaurant was no more and they now served pizzas and burgers instead. This needs to be reflected on their website as they still have the Thai menus listed. I plonked myself into a corner of the restaurant and ordered Camembert Bites for my starter and the burger with sweet potato fries for my main. The waitress was very friendly and the starter was very good, however, I was a bit surprised to find halfway through my starter that the chef em...
