Christmas events at the Kings Arms will be like no other this year. As 2020 draws to a close, we can certainly all join together and agree that it has been just that; a year like no other! We look forward to a brighter and more positive 2021.
During the festive season, we will be keeping our doors open and have put on a number of events, all of which comply with our tier 2 restrictions, and most importantly all being run with covid safety in mind. We do hope you can join us at some point during the festivities.

We have created a real festive treat, full of seasonal goodness and celebration.

Come and enjoy some festive cheer with up to 6 people from your household or support bubble and dress to impress. Places are strictly limited in accordance with social distancing rules, so be sure to book your table now by calling us on 01305 871342! Take a look at the menu below.
We hope to see you there! Merry Christmas

On Sunday 6th Septemeber 2020 we hosted the annual Portesham Motor Show. The weather Gods were kind to us and it was a beautiful sunny day.
Portesham Motor Show 2020
Even though this year was slightly precarious, due to Covid-19, with our strict social distancing rules in place everyone managed to view the beautiful classic and vintage cars. This year our line up was all British cars – of course, the best cars there are ;).

On Saturday 15th August 2020, we were joined by the singing group The Decadettes here at The Kings Arms, Portesham, to celebrate the 75th Anniversary of VJ Day. The Weymouth based female vocal quartet with vintage harmonies serenaded guests while they enjoyed Afternoon tea in our Beer Garden. Manager Scott even managed to get a short clip of the ladies in action.
As it was #AfternoonTeaWeek from 10th August – 16th August, chef Wendy whipped up some afternoon tea treats specifically for the VJ Day celebrations. The afternoon tea cake stand included:
A selection of finger sandwiches, including classic cucumber sandwiches on brown bread
A selection of cakes, including chocolate brownies and lemon drizzle cake
Scone with local Dorset clotted cream and strawberry jam
Tea or Coffee
Afternoon Tea at the Kings Arms
Although it drizzled slightly (this is a British summer after all!), a lovely afternoon was had by all that attended and we made sure that those who fought for our freedom will always be remembered.

We would like to thank the girls from The Decadettes for doing a splendid job of entertaining the troops, even staying on brand with their face masks! We hope to see you back again with us very soon!
