About The King Stag

Originally built as a small beer house in 1866 with a Tudor-inspired style, The King Stag in Bushey Village was completely refurbished in 2013 and is today a family run gastropub. The ethos is to focus on locally sourced, high quality, fresh food and drink served in a friendly and professional way. The pub is the hub of the community where local people can come for a coffee, a pint, a meal — or all three! Friendly customer service is paramount and they are extremely dog-friendly with even a special menu for your four-legged companions. Most suppliers are within twenty miles of the pub and all food is freshly cooked on site. Their traditional pub classics are the most popular, especially the wings. And the chefs are extremely flexible and can work with most allergies. Drinks-wise there is an eclectic range of gins and cocktails as well as wines, craft beer and local ales from Mad Squirrel.

This was the first time I attended The King Stag with the recommendation of my wife. We came with our kids and dog for a Sunday lunch. The staff and the service were fantastic, they were very attentive and ensured that we always had everything that we needed during our visit. The atmosphere was great for a Sunday family pub lunch so can't complain. I would say that the food was delicious, however, it did not come out hot, basically luke warm as it must've sat until we finished our starters. My wife sent hers back to get warmed up but I didn't as it was on a bun and it would've just gotten soggy so just ate it. Also, for a pub lunch I felt it was a bit overpriced for a kids menu especially with the portion size and the kids didn't really like it but we took it home and our son ate it so it wasn't wasted. Overall though, it's a very nice pub, great service and I'm sure on most days the food is outstanding...will visit again and would recommend to anyone! FYI...some of the best onion rings I've ever had anywhere!!

Really disappointing visit to The King Stag for Sunday lunch. I’d booked online, but our table wasn’t ready when we got there……not really a problem, and within ten minutes we were seated. However, after our food orders were taken it took over an hour for a food to be delivered to our table. I drained the issue with the staff a couple of times and they were all very apologetic, but they were unable to hurry the kitchen along. Apparently there was a big table of guests in the restaurant which had caused a backlog, which I completely understand, but that should have been taken into consideration at the time of booking. That said, we were offered a reduction of 15% on the food we ordered, and the staff were very apologetic, but I’m not sure we would visit again.

Fantastic Sunday Lunch We had wonderful food and were really pleased with the friendly service. Although busy the staff were very attentive and the atmosphere was perfect for a long catchup over pre-lunch drinks. We even indulged in the dessert menu which had some lovely options, will definitely have to revisit to try the cheeseboard. Good local ale as well, and overall reasonably priced for the quality of the food.

Not my first visit for Sunday lunch at The King Stag with my daughter son in law and grandchildren but always our first choice. Good food, and delightful service; what more can you ask for, and minutes from home!

Warm welcome, had noted my requests for the table. We were there for the Tuesday Burger night. Ordering was very efficient and food came quickly. We all enjoyed our meal and thought it was good value for money. Only comment would be that the egg needed to have a runny yolk and the mac & cheese hotter. Felt sad that a pub offering such a nice atmosphere and a reasonably priced meal wasn't busier.

Good service but disappointed with the food. Soggy batter & mushy fish - not great, will just stick to drinks at the pub in future
