Steeped in history and full of charm, The Kings Head is a beautifully presented traditional pub on busy Kings Head Hill, dating back to 1782. Once serving as a Manor Court and Vestry meeting house, this impressive bay-fronted building has been a cornerstone of the local community for generations — and today it continues to blend heritage character with modern hospitality.
Externally, the pub boasts ample car parking for 20+ vehicles, a spacious rear garden with lighting, heating, and covered areas for around 60 covers, and a rear patio with a further 30 seats. These outdoor spaces are perfect for relaxed dining, social gatherings, and seasonal events, offering plenty of room to enjoy long afternoons and warm evenings.
Inside, The Kings Head exudes traditional warmth and comfort, featuring four working fireplaces, cosy nooks, and multiple defined trading areas to suit every occasion — from intimate drinks and family meals to large celebratory gatherings. With 120+ internal covers, the layout is flexible yet inviting, making it ideal for casual dining, weekend roasts, or evening drinks with friends.
The pub has been recently refurbished, thoughtfully enhancing its facilities while preserving its classic style and historic charm. The result is a turnkey operation in excellent condition — a ready-made opportunity for an experienced publican to take over a well-established business and build upon its strong local reputation.
A fully fitted trade kitchen, located on the first floor, supports a traditional food offer and allows for further menu innovation and growth.
With its combination of heritage, character, and modern functionality, The Kings Head stands out as a rare and exciting Essex pub tenancy opportunity — ready for the next chapter of its long and successful story.
