Summer is officially in full swing – who else is excited? The warmer weather brings with it longer days, sunny afternoons and warm evenings… and what a coincidence, all those things that are perfect when paired with a trip to your favourite local!
No pub visit is complete without a couple of drinks, but we’ve developed a new summer food menu to keep the hunger away, too. With a couple of old favourites as well as some brand-new additions, there’s something to sate every appetite – and we’re sure you’ll find our dishes are ideal for the warmer weather.
Food is served from 12 – 9pm Tuesday to Saturday, and 12 – 6pm on Sundays, but make sure to check out our full summer menu for details, exceptions, offers, events and more.
Read on for just some of the dishes on offer… and make sure to book to come and tuck in soon!
Light Bites
Whether you’re up for a bar snack or the first of multiple courses, our Starters and Bar Tapas have got you covered with smaller dishes and lighter meals. Choose from crowd pleasers such as whitebait, chicken liver pâté, and garlic mushrooms, to classic bites like our homemade sausage rolls and Scotch eggs, to summery spicy patatas bravas, beef patties and vegan balls. All bases covered… go on, have a nibble.
The Main Event
Whether you’re in for lunch or dinner, sometimes when you’re hungry, you’re hungry – and a filling dish is what you need (even if you’ve got your eye on dessert later). On our main menu, meat lovers can enjoy minted lamb shank, homemade chilli or ham, egg and chips… seafood enthusiasts will select from scampi, cod and chips or king prawn linguine… while veggies and vegans are by no means left behind with three-bean chilli, vegan Mediterranean tart and other such delights.
What’s more, if you’re dining on mains, throughout the summer you can get two dishes for only £20 every Thursday and get stuck into Wednesday Burger Night where you can enjoy a drink and a homemade burger of your choice for just £12!

The Sweetest Thing
Time to talk desserts… pudding lovers are sure to have their sweet tooth satisfied at The Queen’s Head. Indulge in a sweet Biscoff waffle or baked chocolate chip cookie dough – or if you’re feeling fruity, our lemon tart, raspberry Swiss roll trifle or banana split are sure to be a-‘peel’-ing! Or keep it simple by combining dessert with after-dinner coffee with a delicious affogato… the choice is yours. Vegan options also available on request – just chat to our staff when you visit.
If that wasn’t sweet enough, on Fridays dessert is half price when you order a main. Have a read through of our summer offers for details.
Lunches to Munch at Midday
Whether you’re meeting friends for a catch-up or passing through for a working lunch, there’s plenty to choose from for your middle of the day fuel-up. Pop along from 12 – 6pm, Tuesday – Saturday to grab anything from sandwiches, flatbreads, baguettes and salads to jacket potatoes and sharing platters. Will it be a simple-but-tasty cheese and pickle or ham and mustard? Tuna melt, or BLT? Tandoori chicken or BBQ jackfruit? It’ll be hard to choose… so you’ll just have to plan another visit!
Breakfast and Sunday Roasts
Both considered staple meals, breakfast and traditional Sunday lunches are served at The Queen’s Head.
Check out our breakfast menu here – which is served Wednesday, Saturday and Sunday from 10am – 12pm. Every Wednesday we’re also continuing to run our popular Cake & Coffee Mornings, where you can grab a freshly baked cake or pastry (courtesy of our baker Jodi) with a hot drink of your choice for just £3. Instead of a cooked breakfast, or ‘as well as’…? We won’t judge!
If you’re after a roast on Sunday, we always advise booking in advance as they’re so popular… and with good reason – we do it so well! Choose from chicken, beef, pork or veggie nut roast, all served with veg, roasties, Yorkies and gravy for just £10.95… or will you tackle the Monster Mixed Roast, featuring all three meats with extra trimmings? Comfort food and time together is what Sundays are all about.
Whatever you’re after, you’re sure of a warm welcome at The Queen’s Head and with our new summer menu in place, we’re confident you’ll leave with a full belly and a smile on your face.
