Welcome to The King and Tinker....your local pub in Enfield
A 500 year old pub with lots and lots of history…parts of the current pub date from the 16th century and beer has been brewed on site since 950AD. It’s curious name is from the ballad of the King & Tinker which tells of an encounter between the King (James 1st) and a tinker (itinerant pan mender). The King whilst hunting in the area is seperated from his courtiers and takes refuge in the alehouse. The Tinker and the King enjoy a drink together – the tinker has no idea he is drinking with a King. Only when the Courtiers catch up with HRH, does the tinker discover who his new drinking pal is. It is said that the King Knighted the thinker. This is the pub where the meeting took place. Look for the ballard when you visit us.
