About This Pub
Ah, The Kings Arms, what a gem of a spot in Broomfield! I've got to say, it's one of those places that just hits the mark for a proper British pub experience. The food is where it really shines – think juicy roasts, fresh pizzas, and pub classics that are made with top-notch ingredients, leaving you satisfied without breaking the bank too much. The staff are an absolute treat, always on hand with a smile and that extra touch that makes you feel looked after, whether you're popping in for a quick drink or hosting a bigger do. That beer garden is brilliant too, especially when the weather's on your side, with screens for the footie and seating that's comfy enough for a long afternoon. On the flip side, it can get a wee bit expensive if you're not careful, so maybe save it for special occasions rather than everyday outings. All in all, it's a solid choice for anyone after a relaxed vibe with good grub and a friendly crowd – I'd definitely recommend giving it a go if you're in the area.

The food was absolutely stunning. Recommend the roast dinner meal with the chicken as it’s so juicy and well made. I had the pork roast dinner and it was a generous portion, as are all the plates in the roast dinner section. The seafood entré was also fresh and flavorful. The service was so lovely and everyone is very attentive and sweet. Also they play bangers back to back. Had a really good time with the family here and will be coming back :)
A lovely, clean pub with good service. We stopped here for an Easter roast lunch and was blown away. The drink selection is great, and the food was generous and flavourful. A fantastic experience is a beautiful historic pub
Excellent food, service and atmosphere. We have enjoyed the evening.
Iski the manager has made the evening fantastic for us with the service
We had our daughter christened at St Mary’s Church just opposite, and held an after party here with about 50 friends and family. Everyone at The King’s Arms went above and beyond to ensure guests were well looked after, the food and drink flowed, and everything was set up perfectly. They allowed us to drop off our own cake and flower decor beforehand, and gave us exclusive use of the restaurant side. I would highly recommend holding a gathering here, or simply going for a drink or meal. Many thanks to Garry, Rudi and Team! :)
Great atmosphere, nice interior decor. Something different. We had a magic man come to each table although we declined to see some magic others were really amazed with him. The food was lovely and fresh. A little expensive but a nice change. It's definitely worth a visit.
