(500)

Dating from 1455 The King's Head is a hidden gem in the heart of the old market town of Aylesbury. Beautiful beams and wooden floors bedeck this old-world style inn and there is a warm welcome from the friendly staff whether you are drinking, dining or coming in for coffee. The bar is stocked with an excellent selection of the Chiltern Brewery’s fine draught ales and bottled beers, craft lagers and ciders along with a select choice of wines. Choose your drink and retire to one of the comfy sofas or old wooden benches and when the sun is shining it is a must to sit out in the ancient cobbled courtyard surrounded on all sides by old stables, the Great Hall and the beautiful arch under the inn where coaches used to enter. The scent of hops is likely to give you a healthy appetite so be sure to ask for our Bill of Fare which offers delicious platters. The emphasis is on quality, simplicity and taste using the finest, wherever possible, locally sourced ingredients. Wonderful fresh bread baked locally using our real ales and exquisite cheese made on a dairy farm using our Beechwood Bitter, are a couple of the wholesome ingredients with true provenance used by our chef. Try our hearty and traditional ploughman’s lunch or enjoy an excellent meal in the Hop Pocket.

Wow!

What an evening it was and what an honour to be the evening get-together for the top tetrahand surgeons, clinicians and researchers from around the world on Monday.

Such amazing people to meet, and some amazing stories too, and such valuable work that is bringing the medical world together to learn of new ways to help in specialised surgery in such cases.

We’re really proud to have hosted and served 150-200 guests with a hot buffet and drinks. And thankfully the weather was so good the courtyard was a fabulous area for everyone to mingle and meet each other!

I was even able to do a few impromptu tours to show some of our history and rooms to guests from Kenya, Switzerland, Brazil, USA, Germany and the UK!

We’re launching a new Thursday evening at The King’s Head.

From Thursday 24 September - Steak & W**e Night. Order any steak from the Great Hall menu and enjoy 25% off selected bottles of w**e.

A proper steak, a good bottle of w**e and the historic surroundings of the Great Hall — a very good reason to make Thursday night your night out.
