A quintessential village pub and restaurant nestled in the heart of the Norfolk countryside. We overlook an expansive village green in beautiful Aldborough.

A true destination pub, we love our doggy visitors and want them to be as welcomed as their hoomans, treats are dispensed at will and water bowls are always on hand.

The only real doggy restriction is in our upstairs dinning room, however at tables downstairs, outside and in the bar area feel free to bring your dog to The Cricketers. If you’re booking for lunch or dinner please mention you’re bringing your dog and we’ll try and sort an ideal table.

Opening hours
Bar – Monday – Sunday 12noon to 11pm
Lunch – Wednesday – Saturday 12noon to 2.30pm
Dinner – Wednesday – Saturday 6pm to 8.30pm
Sunday lunch – 12noon to 3.30pm

As per all listings on Dog Friendly Norfolk, we accept well behaved dogs.

    Can't fault it. Lovely decadent dining room, with excellent hostess. Service was top notch and attentive. Food was tasty. Portions were reasonable. Recommend a walk round the green before or after your meal.

    Stayed in Aldborough village for a week's and visited the Cricketers Arms twice. Once for food and once for a couple of drinks. Friendly staff, tasty food and a pleasant atmosphere inside for eating. Nice outside area to have a peaceful drink with view over the green. Excellent pub!

    Found this little gem of a pub purely by accident. Dog friendly provided with water and biscuits for our little fur baby. Very welcoming, nothing too much trouble. Food was fantastic freshly cooked, plate sizes are big. Service was attentive, highly recommend.

    Wow what a lovely country pub, the attention to detail with the table settings and decor is lovely. The guggle jugs are a really lovely touch and have now been purchased for home 🤣 The food and service was excellent. The atmosphere is really friendly and very welcoming, if your staying close by do not miss visiting the cricketers on the green.

    Great occidental find after a long day in the sun. Beautiful setting in a small village overlooking the Green. Friendly welcome and, although busy, we’re able to fit us in for an early dinner. Food was well presented and tasted amazing. Such a great village pub made us wish we lived there. 5🌟service. Great end to a lovely day !
