Strangely quiet for lunchtime on a bank holiday weekend: we were informed that the chef was indisposed.Having waited well over forty years to visit this pub, we enjoyed our beer in the front of the bar, before moving on.

The pub is found in Castle Acre, Norfolk, PE32 2AE.

Seventeenth century mellow red brick coaching inn in an historic west Norfolk village. Airy front bar, after which the pub ambles past an impressive fireplace and chimney into an intriguing vaulted and beamed space.

We have visited this pub once, seen 4 different beers and tried 1 of them.
