The Kings Arms - Richmondshire

Great pub in great location a must visit, friendly staff reasonable prices. A bit far from home but would definitely go again.

First time visiting since new ownership and wow! The food is fantastic and service wonderful! We went for an anniversary dinner and loved it so much. Lovely atmosphere and incredible food!

Great experience! Really good food served by a very friendly Scottish guy, owner came out and spoke to us too which we thought was great! Would definitely recommend.

We were staying at Orchard Campsite in Reeth so I looked for somewhere to eat on Friday night i booked a table in case it was busy. It’s a 5 minute stroll from campsite there are 2 other pubs also in this very pretty village, we drank in both but didn’t eat in either) when we arrived it was very quiet, but a warm pleasant atmosphere. We ordered a drink at the bar and then were shown our table, perfect I asked for a table in a corner because we have a vocal but friendly dog. On the table was a water bowl and a bowl of dog treats and cooked meat for our dog this is a very considerate and lovely touch. There were 2 young lads serving one behind the bar and the other serving food to tables. They were like a comedy duo both were extremely friendly and plenty of good humoured banter between themselves, we were lucky that we had a similar taste in music Download Festival chat) but they were happy and pleasant to everyone that came in. We ordered the Fish Friday special 2 fish suppers for £16.95) very quick service and amazing value for money, I couldn’t fault any part of either of our dinners, fresh crispy battered fish, not too many chips and good mushy peas. Obviously we were not the only ones thinking this as it soon filled up and most tables were taken. Service was efficient and friendly to everyone. My only 1 niggle which started out as funny but ended up being a bit annoying after hearing it a dozen times is the tune that lets the staff know the food is ready in the kitchen while I understand there has to be something loud enough for them to hear over happy drinkers and diners, I’m sure a couple of bell rings would be adequate, or a light that stays lit til food is picked up from the kitchen I am a chef and am sure the chefs think it is highly amusing pressing this button but if your in there as a customer for a couple of hours on a busy evening not so much). Having said that I would not hesitate to go back with friends and family for food and drinks.

Stayed for 2 nights the room was spotlessly clean the bed comfortable the ensuite bathroom was quirky to say the least you couldn't open the.door fully it hit the sink so step in close door toilet didn't flush properly if at all very cramped space shower dated no mat so used the hand towel scaffolding all around the outside of the pub so that was the view from the room In the bar staff were friendly food was freshly cooked pub grub Breakfast was disappointing Coffee undrinkable very weak Full English looked very unappetising and sachets galore in a room that had blue fairy lights everywhere!The decor well every shelf/surface was covered with random ornaments even an unicorn cookie jar !!!every wall has a plaque/sign/picture extremely cluttered scruffy plastic pots held an array of sachets of sauces from various brands I believe the place is owned by a brewery chain so maybe its mid renovation whatever its needs decluttering would I stay there again No
