A good village local. There's a separate restaurant alongside a comfortable bar. Excellent food menu with many options including gluten free, vegetarian & vegan.

The annual race of the bogmen is held locally on Easter Mondays and historical memorabilia is on display in the pub.

Historic Interest

Originally only licensed as a beerhouse, the pub got its full license on March 2nd 1960. The building dates from the late 16th or early 17th century, with 19th century alterations. It was originally a group of four cottages, but was converted into a pub to replace the White Horse, which stood over the road. Now a freehouse, with all Greene King branding removed when visited in May 2015. Photographs of this pub and more historical information about it can be found at suffolk.camra.org.uk/pub/345
