One of the few, truly fantastic pubs left in existence... Been frequenting the Queen's Head for over 40 years on and off.... Never fails to impress πππPosted on Google eric whittle27 October 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Family meal at the Queens head on the 26th October for 9 of us. The food was fabulous all served at the same time and very hot. Meat just fell apart and was so tasty. Cannot thank Ian and the staff for a faultless service and as mentioned - fabulous food....Posted on Google Trish Mitchell24 October 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. PARSONAGE LANE IS OPENPosted on Google Rich mel22 October 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Originally booked for four people but two dropped out last minute. Contacted the pub to adjust the numbers, as is the right thing to do as I know they are always busy. Great selection of real ales, IPAs and Lager, most from local breweries. I had the burger which was tender, juicy and full of flavour. My partner had the Vegan burger which again was cooked to perfection. The portions are not small so, come hungry and leave full.
