The Queen's Head is one of the things I love most about the countryside- namely that the local…read morevillage watering hole is exceptional and well above the average pub-turned-restaurant in the city. -Starter: Caramelized onion and sweet red pepper tart which came on a bed of new potato salad with pesto that balanced the goats cheese well. Fabulous choice without an overly heavy crust and presenting a perfect blend of flavors (and plating design). -Main: Rare beef salad with diced tomatoes and chorizo paired with a gorgeous combination of dressings and salad leaves. Perfectly done beef strip with a creative marriage of background flavors. We came here with our friend's family who we knew we could trust to deliver some outstanding dishes in a quaint, well furnished pub setting. The waitress was fast, helpful, and friendly throughout. The seasonal menu has clearly been meticulously chosen, leaving something for everyone and leaving no one out. The new spring menu features traditional with a twist favorites such as Tempura black pudding with red onion marmalade, a poached egg, and hollandaise sauce for starter along with steak, Red Mist ale and mushroom pie with red wine gravy for the main. The prices are very reasonable for the local, fresh produce and expert execution of the food.

I visited as part of a 4 adult group. The place is nicely decorated, and spacious and offers…read moreoutside seating as well as inside. It was cold and so outide setting was not considered for us! We found a choice of tables available many of which had a leather sofa in place of the seats on one side. Very comfortable but in my view not practical to eat from. We were served at the table for both food and drinks. Nice choice of ales including Hoggs Back TEA. The menu offers plenty of choice and it is home (pub) made from fresh. 2 of my group went for beef roast. I chose an steak, ale and mushroom pie, and my partner chose a cumberland pie. Prices ranged between £10.50 and £14.50 (for the roast) for our meals which I felt was a little pricey compared to many. The food was served adn was absolutely first class. Everything was cooked to perfection (the meat, mash, roast potatos, vegetables etc) and was hot. It really was absolutely delicious, as was the desert afterwards (where even the cheesecake was home made). We gularly sample Sundays lunches at pubs and this is up there with the best.

Food was delicious - great portion sizes! The kids meals options are mini versions of the adult…read moremeals - which I think is amazing. The menu is meat centric and has lots of South African flavored options but there are vegetarian choices. Service is really good and the beer is cold and refreshing. The dessert menu is a MUST read - with over 10 options of ever increasing yummiest (so save room!). The restaurant is split between dinner tables and traditional pub tables so you could "just" pop in for a drink (but with the quality of food on offer - why would you lol). The outside area has a kids playground and plenty of tables for when the sun shines.

We were doing one of our "Time Out Country Walks" (#14) and although this wasn't the recommended…read morelunch stop, I'd read about it and liked the idea of a South African BBQ. We arrived with our dog and although they don't allow her in the actual restaurant, we were able to sit in the bar area and order food from there. It was a very busy day, yet the bar staff served us quickly and even had the chance for a friendly chat with us. We ordered biltong (dry-cured meat) and boerewors (a type of sausage) as starters and then I had the minced Rump burger, whereas my other half ordered the chicken roulade. All of the items were quite tasty and I do applaud the management on that. Nevertheless, I didn't really like the atmosphere at the Percy Arms. To me, it was really too "done up" - it didn't feel real in there...I didn't feel comfortable. The pub looks quite old from the outside, but the inside doesn't reflect this at all.
