What Leeearnshaw81 doesn't like about The King Lud:
The restaurant is cheaper than others on the island, but it seems to attract rowdy customers. The staff seemed unprofessional, with one customer even arriving an hour late to find the place dirty and the regulars staring. The staff member was constantly on the phone and falling behind. Stepping out the door was dangerous, so I would recommend avoiding this place. View all feedback. What bparkercars likes about The King Lud:
Busiest pub on the Esplanade because it's the cheapest. That said, the drinks were good and on the Saturday evening we visited we saw no bad behaviour and enjoyed our visit. View all feedback.

By far the cheapest pints I’ve seen in my life. The music is good and not very loud.
