Reopened 21/02/25 with new leaseholder. The pub is adjacent to bus station, close to town centre and near to the river Waveney, so it is handy for visitors to the Broads. There is a central bar area, a sports room with pool table and a function room. A paved garden is at the rear and tables are set out in front of the pub in warmer months.

Opening hours and food availability hours are still to be ascertained.
