A large and friendly local pub close to the shops in the Golden Triangle, with a number of seating areas inside and out, serving an interesting variety of ales from local breweries, with Wolf's Golden Jackal, Norfolk Brewhouse's Moon Gazer, and Greene King's London Glory on tap most of the time, as well as two or three constantly changing beers from all over the country (note that keg beers are sometimes listed on the blackboard).
Customers are encouraged to try before they buy and a full pint is assured by the use of over-sized pint glasses, as recommended by CAMRA, but rarely offered.
The pub is dog friendly and is proud to remain one of the more traditional pubs in Norwich, by, in the words of the landlord " steadfastly refusing to offer cooked food to our clientele or becoming a restaurant with a licence on the side".
Sports shown on TV but the screens do not dominate (except in one small area!). There is also a pleasant pergola-covered patio to one side of the pub.
This Pub serves 2 changing beers and 1 regular beer.
