Tycjan took over the pub in November 2024, with the help of his niece Nicole and her husband Luke are working to make the King Alfred reach its potential as a rural country pub which we all know and love.
THE PUB IS THE HUB.
“Rural communities, and this country’s rural way of life, face unprecedented challenges. The country pub, which has been at the heart of village life for centuries, is disappearing in many areas.”
HRH The Prince Of Wales
At the King Alfred we aim to be the heart of the community – not only are we a meeting place, a social hub, we provide a place where the community can come together. Throughout the year we run many events, from Pub Quizzes to Bingo nights and Live Music events.



We offer traditional pub food using local meats, fish and vegetables.

Meet the Chef
Tyjcan moved to England from Poland at the age of 17. His passion for cooking began at a very young age when he cooked with his mum and dad. When he came to England he has worked and run a range of restaurants from sushi restaurants to high end steak houses, so you will not be disappointed by a steak cooked by him.
He takes a lot of pride in everything he does, down to the finest droplet of sauce that is on your plate. All this stems from the passion he holds for what he does and it definitely shows in the food served at The King Alfred.
