Sutton Bonington Football Club is situated nearby, along with your usual village facilities in the form of a park, childrens play area, tennis and bowling clubs. The nearby River Soar is popular with walkers, cyclists and boaters in the warmer months.

Pub Layout

Internally the pub has a traditional yet fresh décor in keeping with the tradition of the building. It is divided into two distinct trading areas, both served from a prominent central bar. The snug bar is popular with the locals for a relaxed drink, and features a mix of fixed and loose seating and a darts oche. The lounge bar/dining area has softer furnishings and accommodates approximately 35 covers for relaxed dining. The pub has been very well maintained throughout. Externally to the front, the pub features a seating area for approximately 25-30 patrons, with a car park to the side which can comfortably accommodate 20-25 vehicles. To the rear of the pub is a good-sized enclosed beer garden. The pub recently underwent an exterior decoration giving it great kerb appeal.

Trading Style

Trading Style

The Kings Head operates as a traditional village community pub, with a great local reputation for cask ales and a popular homemade food menu served seven days a week featuring locally renowned fish & chips, weekly theme menus (steak nights, pie specials etc.) and Sunday lunches. The menus are complemented by a good wine list and premium spirit range. The pub currently enjoys a strong regular trade and is well supported by the local community. There is an opportunity to build on the current offering through regular entertainment (quiz nights, live music) and possibly pub sports through the introduction of darts teams.
