Sometimes you know quickly that you’ve stumbled across something special, and you get that impression as you amble through the door of the King’s Arms in Wing, situated between Oakham and Uppingham.
The map and photos of the pub’s local food suppliers is a giveaway, as is the vast array of seasonal ingredients and relaxed atmosphere.
Run by head chef James Goss and family, the King’s Arms is a 17-century country pub in a beautiful setting. It has a homely feel, with stripped-wood tables, exposed flagstones and floorboards, gingham curtains and low, beamed ceilings. There’s also an outside seating area and en suite rooms.
One of the best things about the pub is that passionate chef James makes everything in-house, from the tomato ketchup up. He also runs Jimmy’s Smokehouse (attached to the pub), where he smokes things like Rutland trout, Hambleton mutton and Grasmere ham. James learned to smoke food in Denmark and to cure in Switzerland.
The King’s Arms is a pub run with passion and this shows in its food and drink.
Birthday lunch in superb country pub/restaurant. Beautiful food cooked and presented perfectly. Good atmosphere beamed ceilings and welcoming open fire, friendly staff knew all details of menu. Good wine selection. Own smokehouse and goodies to buy.
Excellent Sunday lunch here today. Faultless local produce cooked perfectly. A special country pub thanks to the passion of the kitchen!
A beautiful little gem serving excellent food, creatively and with love and attention. Time to sit by the fire with some real ale and good company followed by wonderful, locally sourced food, a comfortable bed and a hearty locally sourced breakfast. What’s not to love?
Very good food – and most of it is local
A beautiful pub with friendly staff who are always happy to help. The food is fantastic and there is always something different to choose from. The local produce they use is varied and delicious!! There is also a great selection of delicacies to take home. Always top on our recomendation list!!
Such a great pub – great food, loads of interesting local produce (including their own smokehouse!), cosy atmosphere, dog-friendly. All in all a fab place to while away a few hours!
James can really cook. Really cook. The kitchen turns out a resolutely seasonal menu (perhaps excelling during the Autumn and Winter during the Game season) that is well executed and has some flair. The house curing and smoking is a bonus.
