  Average menu, average food quality, slow service, no baby changing facility! and told that one of the ladies cubicles is wide enough to do it in there! On the floor!!!! Won't be visiting again.

  It was, admittedly, between Christmas and New Year when we visited and was very busy, but the basics just didn't seem to be there. We tried to order four meals, three weren't available with a further two unavailable. We then placed our revised orders and waited. And waited. Another table were expressing their long wait too. Nearly fifty minutes later our food finally arrived...
  
  The sausage and mash was tasty with a rich gravy. The beef pie had a very tender filling, but it was so salty that I couldn't eat the whole dish (very unusual). The egg on the fishcake poached perfectly, but the fishcake itself was again very salty. The mixed seafood sensation was served with nowhere to put the mussel shells from the moules marinières and nothing to clean your fingers with afterwards (which is even offered in KFC).
  
  When clearing glasses from the table the young lady prodded her fingers into all of our glasses, realised that some of them hadn't been finished so then just left them... Nice! We commented that the food had been salty, no apology was offered byt she did say she'd tell 'them'. We ordered some coffees which came, lukewarm. When we went to pay the bill there was a extra pint of beer on the bill and an extra coffee. These were removed, but again no apology.
  
  This was a really disappointing experience, what appeared to be good food but some over salted and front of house staff with no polish (sparkle). The Kings Arms has a good reputation, I hope this was an off day after a busy festive season.
