Traditional and well-decorated pub overlooking the River Wensum with a veranda, riverside terrace with views of the ancient Fye Bridge at the rear, and pavement tables at the front.

A welcoming row of handpumps dispenses four regular beers plus four or five changing beers from interesting breweries across the UK. There's also a selection of keykeg beers, and two rotating ciders.

Food is served daily by La Repubblica Della Pizza, who specialise in stone-baked pizzas. They source the best local ingredients to provide a variety of options on their menu, along with regular specials to suit every season.
