About the Pub
The pub offers a range of well-kept ales from local breweries and guests from further afield. Real cider is a feature, with a regularly updated list of up to ten ciders and perries from all over the UK. The pub was the Branch Cider Pub of the Year every year from 2012-2023, and has won the East Anglian title.
There's a comfortable main bar, at the front as you enter, with a tiled floor, tables and a large well-lit and wood-topped bar, a rear bar with more tables, and access to the toilets and the third area, a long bar with more seating and a bar billiards table.
Several bar billiards teams are based at the pub and play in the local league, and there are folk nights on Thursdays.
