King’s Mead
King’s Mead
I'm part of the Destination Inns family!
Part of the McMullen family since 1950, rebuilt in 2017.
Seriously relaxed dining with a family golfing centre to boot. Named after the local area on which the pub sits with a nod to historic alcoholic beverages of old.
Formerly the site of the original East Herts Golf Club it became Chadwell Springs 9 hole Golf course in 1974. The land is formed over chalk caves, the risk of which was highlighted when a seven-foot tree planted one day was below ground the next! It is the water in these caves that filters down into the chalk aquifer that is used in the brew of McMullen’s local ales to this day.
Fresh food, fine wines, local hand crafted ales from the Hertford Brewery and ethical coffee have all been selflessly and fastidiously tested ā just to be sure things are perfect for you.
Enjoy the pub on its own or after a game of golf – the perfect way to build an appetite for the entire family.
All that comes delightfully wrapped up in this charming pub with roaring log fires, heated patio and crammed full of cosy private nooks and crannies.
We look forward to welcoming you soon!
