Kingston Arms Freehouse

Welcome

In the 8 years since it was 'restored', The Kingston Arms has made quite a name in the neighbourhood - popular during the day with people who work nearby, and bustling at night with punters in for a few drinks or something to eat.

What's more, several publications have spotted us, including the Observer Food Monthly where we won 3 awards; ‘Best Cheap Eats’, ‘Best Sunday Lunch’ and ‘Best Place to Drink’ (with Cambridge Blue), in East Anglia, Feb 2004!

Customers and critics all point out how well the combination of traditional pub, award winning ales and first rate cooking works in this cosy venue where equal attention is paid to the range of beers, the wines and of course the daily changing menu.

In short, the Kingston is a great pub, with good food, fantastic ales and wines and a relaxed informal atmosphere, perfect for cosy first dates, business lunches or boozy get-togethers.

Our Ethos

We are committed to local sourcing, traceability, caring for the environment, ensuring the happiness of customers and staff and achieving the highest quality in everything we do.

To that end, all our food is either locally sourced, or we buy it from high end, reputable food specialists (Neal's Yard Diary, M & J Seafood, among others). We scour the country looking for quality ales, and we buy our whiskies, brandy's, etc from smaller, independent suppliers.

Already Here - Sunday BBQs!

Customers are telling us they love our Thursday BBQ's, and want more! As summer approaches, we have decided to phase out our Sunday Roasts, and have BBQ's instead. But if you're a fan of our roasts, don't worry, they'll be back in the autumn.

The Sunday BBQ menu is the same as the Thursday evening BBQ menu.

BBQ's: Thursday evening & Sunday lunch.

Already Here - Range of Bottled Beers!

As part of our continuing assault on the recession, and wanting to offer more, not less, to our customers during these troubled times, we will offer a range of bottled beers! Including foreign beers, English Ales, etc!

Already Here - Recession Ales, Wines and Menu!

We realise that the recession is well and truly here! As a result we have been feverishly working away on some recession proof options. These include a recession food menu, a range of recession beers, and recession wines.

We will always have our core Kingston options, but in addition we will offer a range of recession options!

Recession Ales

Our Recession Range of ales includes 'Recession be Damned' (which has gained some attention), at £1.95/pint and £1 a half!

We also offer a range of other Recession Ales at similar prices!

Recession Wines

We offer a Recession Busting Red wine and a White wine, cheaper than our house wines!

Recession Menu

Starters - £1.99, S'wiches - £2.99, Mains - £3.99!

Click here for menu.

All this is in addition to price reductions across the board, including:

Brewer's Gold: 2.40! JHB: £2.30!

And 2-4 'Recession Ales', all of which will be around £1.95/pint, or £1 a half!

To summarise: Our Recession Options will NOT replace our normal offerings, but our normal offerings will ALSO be reduced!

For a tenner, you can come to The Kingston, have a hearty meal, three pints, and still get change!

Already Here - Every Thursday evening is barbeque evening at The Kingston!

And because it’s the Kingston, it's not just burgers & sausages!

(Note: our normal menu is replaced by our BBQ menu on Thursday evenings)

Coming Soon - One week of every month is beer festival week!

For one week of every month, part of the Kingston given over to hosting a large selection of new ales!

Note - Air Conditioning

Note - Walled & Covered Garden

For those who don't know The Kingston, we have a walled garden, with canopies, soft seats, and heaters. And it's open all year round.

Note - Good Beer Guide 2009 misprint

The Good Beer Guide 2009 states that we offer accommodation. We would like to make it clear that we do not.
