Down a long meandering track, the Locks fronts the River Waveney, with large gardens and overnight moorings. Up to four beers are served, mainly Green Jack Brewery. The small bar has low ceiling beams, clay tile floor and is lit by candlelight at night. Modern extensions allow the pub to host live music acts including bands every Sunday afternoon and traditional music every Thursday evening. With beer festivals yearly and many other events this is a real community pub. Use NR34 0HS for SatNavs or you'll end up on the wrong side of the river! Popular sunday roasts on offer. East Norfolk CAMRA Branch Rural Pub of the Year 2023.

Included in the East Norfolk CAMRA Branch 2025 Ale Guide. Check the Branch website for further details of the Ale Guide.
