The King Alfred

Delicious food served promptly. Pizzas were huge, and the pasta was amazing. I had the pasta with vongole (clams) and the portion size was just right for me. We were all stuffed by the end and the free hot chocolate tasters were delicious , as were the complimentary servings of fried pasta to nibble on at the start! My daughter loved her huge hot chocolate. My wine had something in it - this was swiftly replaced and taken off the bill completely, which was very good service and much appreciated. We will definitely be back!

A great place for an impromptu meet up for a meal for 4 on a Sunday. The staff were attentive, polite and allowed us plenty of time to choose. Tap water was brought, and the glasses had ice and lemon, whilst waiting for our main drinks without asking, which I thought was good. Food arrived quickly, was lovely and hot, well presented and the portions were a perfect size too. The chill prawn pasta is my favourite in many restaurants. Zizzi’s had the perfect kick and the prawns were presented on an arched hanging skewer, which made for a fun experience. Honey duck was crispy and cooked to perfection, pollo milanese went down well as did a picante pizza, with mushrooms replaced with a drizzle of honey. My Candy Floss Dolce was a real treat, taking a 57 year old back to the days the funfair…delicious Perfection. There were some tasty choices for vegan and vegetarians too, which I would like to try another time. We enjoyed our meal and would visit again. One tiny request, is to ask that glasses be checked, rinsed and polished, as they were a bit cloudy and smeared. I did mine myself with a serviette, but it was still a bit murky. Also the volume of the music in the ladies toilet was so loud, my sister and I could barely talk. Just tiny details but we had a great meal and the staff were great.

Had a delicious meal here on Monday. The staff were so friendly and helpful and the food was delicious. We weren't massively hungry so we ordered a couple of starters and some bits to share, we had a few drinks and with a blue light discount the bill was only £58 for 6 of us.
