Aylesbury Vale Village Pub Competition - Best community pub winner 2016/17.

We are delighted to be announced winners of the Aylesbury Vale Village Pub Competition - Best Community Pub winner 2016/17.

This is a fantastic achievement within our first year, especially as the award is for a 'Community Pub' which is exactly what we are trying to provide here for the people of Wendover and surrounding areas. 

We'd like to thank everyone that nominated us, the judges and of course our fantastic team, Ben, Sam, Lyndsey and Lochie and perhaps most of all our regular customers who really are the most vital part of what makes a truly great local.

You can read more about the awards here and see us featured in the Aylesbury Vale Recommended Pub Guide 2016/17 here

Dust off your best witches and goblin outfits for our Day of the Dead event on Sat 29th October.

Dust off your best witches and goblin outfits for our Day of the Dead event on Saturday 29th October!

It's that time of year again where the streets are filled with goblins, witches and ghostly ghouls.... All lost souls should make their way to the King & Queen for a spooky day and evening filled with live music, Halloween food/drinks and games for the kids throughout the day.

Maybe we will even get a visit from our very own resident ghost, spotted by eagle-eyed locals over the years....

The Rambling Allstar Review
Sunday 28th August 7pm - 8.30pm

Martin met Cheyne Pride around 2008 while a member of Hank Wangford’s Lost Cowboys (which he still is), and has worked with her on and off since then as a duo or part of a full band. Cheyne is American by birth but a long time resident of the UK. She sings Country with a voice as clear as a mountain stream and rhythm and blues as dirty as Muddy Waters! Many will also know her in her Elvis persona ‘Queenie Creole’. Cheyne was formerly a backing singer with The Pogues.
