3 months agoWhen we went half of the menu was off, was really looking forward to going as it was my mother's birthday. Staff did try to make the experience better, so can't complain about them. But the food even though was edible it wasn't anything spectacular considering the lack of stuff missing from there menu. I will give another try as they stated that a change over of staff in the kitchen was the reason behind this. Fingers crossed we will get a better experience next time

a month agoWhat a find this place was! Due to it's location we assumed it would be quiet but we were very wrong. It was extremely busy! We were informed that there would be a wait for food when we got there but we were happy to wait. I'm glad we did! Food was beautiful, staff were so friendly and were particularly great with the children and dog we had with us. They gave the children a variety of board games to play to alleviate the boredom of waiting and gave my dog biscuits and water. If I'm ever on holiday in Norfolk again this will definitely be a place we visit again.

a month agoWe visited The Lord Nelson yesterday as a part of 6 + dog, and all thoroughly enjoyed the food. "Potentially the best ham hock terrine" my MIL has ever had, and plenty of treats and attention for the dog, but best of all for me was the care and attention given to the allergies and intolerances in our party. I felt in safe hands, and checking the ingredients with the chef was never too much trouble for our friendly and lovely server. Thank you for a lovely evening!

2 months agoLast here 10 years ago when the pub was historic but small with good beer and food. It has had an amazing make over. Very well done, the historic features remain with new restaurant areas. And a lovely outdoor space. Food and drink still great. Well worth a visit.

11 months agoWe had a wonderful meal here - welcome was warm, service was friendly and the food although on the higher end for pub food, was really delicious. We tried the buttermilk chicken burger and the pie - both excellent - and the lemon posset for dessert was wonderful. Dogs are made very welcome, ours certainly loved the treat station. We really enjoyed the museum to the rear of the pub - super interesting. Would definitely visit again if we were in the area.
