The Ribs of Beef – Norwich

Pizza and punting was a great corporate event. The river was lovely, staff were friendly and the pizzas (including gluten free and vegan cheese options!) had that wonderful home cooked charm. The pub itself was full of charm, character and warmth. A great visit.

We had a reservation at the Ribs of Beef as part of the ‘Pub, Paddle and Pizza’ experience which is run by the adjacent ‘Pub and Paddle’ business. Upon arrival we ordered drinks and were directed to our reserved table. We were able to order our pizza options directly with the pop-up kitchen. They were extremely helpful and able to accommodate all of our various dietary requirements and allergies. A great menu with plenty of vegan and vegetarian options, we all enjoyed our pizzas and would definitely eat here again!

First time at this great CAMRA Good Beer Guide 2024 public house located right on the River Wensum by Fye Bridge. We sat inside but there is a seating gallery with sun umbrellas outside directly over the River. The pub has a screen or two for sports but they were not showing anything during our time there. Friendly bar staff and we spoke about how a Stout can be a great drink for any season of the year not just winter! We had two pints and two half pints of the lovely Nutty Ambassador Hazlenut Milk Stout by The Little Critters Brewing Company. The beer is top class and a very reasonable able price indeed. The pub serves alcoholic drinks other than real ale however it is rightly in CAMRA’s Good Beer Guide, with nine hand pumps on offer, and the staff will let you taste and chat about the ales if you are undecided what to have or maybe you are new to ale drinking, making it a welcoming place to have a try. We didn’t eat this time but pizzas and other meals are available. The Pub has an excellent location and it was really enjoyable to watch kayaks, rowing boats and paddle boarders going past. A very chilled, mellow vibe going on Thank you indeed to the Staff and we will return!

Beautiful building in an excellent location. Huge drink selection, friendly bartenders, and the pizza was good too.

Lovely place in general, great selection of beers and lovely setting by the river. Service however was less than accommodating, my friend wasn't satisfied with the quality of her drink and we were expected to pay for a replacement. Not the end of the world, but a bit of class from the establishment in looking after their customers would not go amiss.
