King Alfred's Head in Vale of White Horse

Great teamCosy atmosphereGood selection of beersGreat gardenA proper English pub

Brilliant ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ The staff are awesome, the vibe is always good, both inside and out in the garden. They cater for children, dogs, young and old (like me) and they do an amazing Carvery on a Sunday! It used to be 'My Local.Haunt' 20 plus years ago and is now once again the best place to be in town 😊😊😊😊😊

Polish manager extremely rude and this place has unfortunately become known for aggressive assaults outside the front. My first time back in years (bc of the rude manager) and he shouted something rude at us bc we were blocking the bar which was clear at the time. I once stormed out because he shouted in my face hence why I hadn’t been in so long. Horrible person. The only pub I’ve ever known to not have a big group of regulars, it’s not popular among the locals. I’ve also seen him be extremely rude to customers, there’s a very quick staff turn over here (I knew the chef here who hated it and the assistant manager quit on the spot bc of how poorly he treated them) and he has very unhygienic habits behind the bar which I spotted during the peak of covid. Such a waste of a nice building. I advise you not to support this place, the swan opposite has much better customer service and is an all round more pleasant environment. I won’t be returning until under new management and I know many who agree.

Was a place we just popped into to see about a lunch on New Year’s Eve they had a table so we chose from a varied menu.Everyone was pleased with their choices.very busy but we never made to wait or rushed in anyway.Definitely go again

Excellent little town centre pub with garden. Great drinks at great prices, oh and the food is excellent

What a great pub. Welcomed in on cold January day and we were allowed to bring bikes in and store in the garden so they were safe. Good pub grub and fantastic friendly service! Just what we needed mid ride! Thank you

New to Wantage so still trying out all the bars and pubs. Stopped in here on a very busy Remembrance Sunday managed to get a table and just enjoyed a Sunday drink for the first time in a long time. Bar staff were excellent offering to bring drinks over rather than have you hanging around the bar. Although I didn't eat there was a carvery and a comprehensive menu that others were tucking into.

Beautiful garden, friendly and polite staff, average food but a big disappointment when served a waffle that was not freshly made there but was the ones we buy from supermarkets in packages of four, charged £5.90. This kind of "desserts" shouldn't ever be served in a pub/ restaurant. The garden and the caring staff was the best part of our experience.

Shout out to Ebony who served my dad and I on this occasion. With her, the experience went from good to amazing! She recommend the onion Bhaji burger and I promise it's definitely worth the hype!
