Kings Country Bar & Restaurant

For any equestrian enthusiasts this is the venue for you. The Restaurant is owned by Pinkmead Farm Equestrian Centre so whilst eating your meal, during the day, you can watch horses being trained/exercised in the indoor area which is part of the restaurant. As it was only built about 2 years ago its in good decorative order and we all agreed it is a quirky find! Because of the restaurant being part of the farm they are open Mon - Fri 11am - 11pm, Sat 9am - 11pm and Sun 9am - 6pm.

From a very varied menu we chose for starters, homemade fishcakes with salad, prawn salad, soup of the day - winter vegetable- and farmhouse pate. All generous portions and well presented. For our main courses, a lasagne and salad, several chose fish pie with fresh vegetables, a Cajun chicken salad and a supreme chicken breast with Parma ham and fresh vegetables. Starters around £5/6 and mains £8/10. Again generous portions and because of that we finished off with just coffees although the puddings sounded yummy and were homemade. We were 8 so we had 3 bottles of wine! A good lunch was had by all, the only adverse comments were the fish cakes needed more seasoning and the service was a little slow! They were busy for a Thursday lunchtime.
