Kings in Eccleshall

[Trumpet]

Four of us had tea here last night.
Really good menu of 'proper' winter food, liver & bacon, steak & kidney pudding, bangers & mash etc. As well as the usual pub menu suspects. Good sized portions, nice fire going, decent beer & pretty easy on the wallet too.

Last time i drove by it seemed to have a to let sign outside. Is it now ' under new management '?

On the recommendation of my Brother, who lives in Eccleshall, Myself and a friend gave it a go on Thursday. We spent 3 hours in there! Mate had braised beef in a mushroom and onion gravy with mash and veg, while I had pan fried chicken breast, stuffed with haggis and wrapped in bacon, in a whisky sauce, with sauteed potatoes and veg. To follow that he had Eton mess and I had apple pie and ice cream. My Brother then joined us and his drinks went on our tab. £47 for 2 mains, 2 deserts and 8 drinks was pretty decent and the quality/quantity of the food was spot on, even if more than you'd get in most places! (Nice big plates!)

My friend had the haggis stuffed chicken, he thought it was one of the best pub meals he'd had this year. Yes the portions are quite generous.

There's been a temporary gaffer in for over a year now. He's responsible for the current excellent grub. I understand the pubco are still trying to find a taker for the lease.

Sounds good to me, when's the last bus back to Stafford?

Treated my Brother and Sis in Law to a meal here tonight, for Big Bro's birthday. All had different meals and all enjoyed 2 courses. Top notch yet again!
3 mains, 3 desserts, 7 drinks - £58.90 and all gonna sleep well due to being extra stuffed!
