Our aim is to provide our guests with the highest possible standard of food, drink and accommodation in clean, attractive surroundings complimented by a warm welcome and a pleasant atmosphere.

A traditional ale house at heart, we have a constantly changing selection of up to 8 real ales, sourced from breweries big and small across Great Britain. Teamed with delicious, home cooked food, made with the freshest, local ingredients, we think you're going to love what we have to offer.

We hope to see you soon,

Steve, Chris and the team.

Opening hours:-

Monday to Saturday 11am - 11pm

Sunday 12pm - 11pm

We try to be consistent in our opening hours but sometimes, for reasons out of our control, we are unable to offer our normal service. It’s always worth a quick call to check that we are open when you need us to be.

Beer and Wine

We're all about the beer

For almost half a century, we've been well known for our commitment to fantastic beer, we offer up to 8 daily changing real ales, sourced from breweries big and small from across great Britain. A further 10 premium lagers and craft beers from England and Europe can be found on our counter, as well as two draught English ciders. If none of these take your fancy, our beer lineup is completed by a range of bottled beers, with something for every taste.

Ales on the counter.

The Crafty Brewing co. Ltd, Thatched House Farm, Dunsfold Rd, Loxhill, Godalming Surrey.

Hop Tipple IPA (4.2%) A golden ale with a hoppy citrus aroma and a resinous, refreshing finish. Grumpsters (3.9%) traditional copper bitter.

Adnams Brewery, Sole Bay Brewery, E Green, Southwold, Suffolk.

Broadside (4.7%) Brewed to commemorate the battle of Sole Bay 1672. Broadside is brewed with First Gold hops, for their cinnamon-like aromas and marmalade flavours. Black and chocolate malt is used to darken the beer; and pale ale malt provides its malty characteristics, as well as fermentable sugars. The mashing regime in the brewery is set to retain a lot of un-fermentable sugar, which gives Broadside its rich sweetness and full mouthfeel. Ghost Ship (4.5%) Our citrus pale ale is approachable, moreish, and hauntingly good on any occasion. Originally brewed as a Halloween seasonal, interest lingered, like its lemony flavours, and it is now our best-selling beer. In the foggy past, patrons of The Bell Inn, our 600-year-old pub in Walberswick, told tall tales of ghostly ships that haunted the shore. The seeds of these stories were likely sown by smugglers trying to scare people away, but they later became the inspiration for everyone’s favourite eerie brew.

Nottingham Brewery Ltd, Plough Inn, 17 St Peters Street, Nottingham, Nottinghamshire.

EPA (4.3%) A light coloured exceptionally well balanced smooth ale with a light fragrant hop finish.

Milestone Brewing Co, Great North Road, Cromwell, Newark, Nottinghamshire.
