Having failed to get served for a third pint in the Spoons walked over the road to here. Much better, good choice of beer, excellent service, and a good atmosphere.

13:45 Lunch stop. Very welcoming staff. The pub is directly opposite the Wetherspoons that opened a year ago. He is still trading so must be doing something right given the price competition.

The pub is found in Fakenham, Norfolk, NR21 9AG.
Pleasant one roomed pub in Bridge Street with lots of different areas and levels. Impressive collection of pump clips behind the bar. Good for Norfolk beers.
We have visited this pub 6 times, seen 19 different beers and tried 11 of them.
