A Greene King pub in a picturesque narrow street in the town centre which has been run by the same landlord for a number of years. Alongside the beers from Greene King there are two other regular beers. The interior has two distinct areas and there is a large outdoor patio area. A full lunchtime menu is served daily with pizza available weekday evenings. On Sunday afternoons there are live bands from 3:30pm when the pub is extremely popular.

Formerly the Three Tuns, this pub name provides an unusual local reference to the maritime hero, more common around his Norfolk birthplace.
