An attractive riverside pub next to the oldest bridge in Norwich, within easy reach of the railway station and buses, and convenient for pleasure boats using the nearby moorings.

The pub has a long bar and a choice of up to six cask ales, mostly sourced from local breweries. There is also a conservatory, which overlooks the picturesque River Wensum, plenty of outside seating, and launching facilities are available.

Brunch, lunch and dinner are served every day, with pop-ups in summer.
