Good old fashioned pub, to suit all ages with a good sized beer garden, run by a hard working couple to excellent standard. Competetive prices and beer is well kept and always good πŸ‘

Nice warm friendly pub in the lovely village of mapplewell. you can have a pint or glass of wine infront of a open fire in the snug room or in the conservatory were you will also find the pool table or any of the other 2rooms. They often have bouncy castles for the kids to come and play! I would recommend any one to call into the kings head
