Second pub on our bus tour and like the others today were well prepared for our arrival, the banter flowed as much as the beer did during our hour or so's stay.

The pub is found in Tattingstone, Suffolk, IP9 2NU.

This distinctive two bar pub is located close to the reservoir on a former main road which is now just a cul-de-sac but still a popular start/ending point for local walks. Both bars have exposed timber frame throughout. The refurbished public bar also has a large open fire, whilst the restaurant bar is larger and incorporates a wood burner. Various snacks and full meals offered [see chalk boards in bar]. Terrestrial sport is shown on TV. All toilets are still located outside in a separate building. Acoustic music sessions (folk or buskers) on the 1st & 3rd Sunday of every month. The statue of a white horse (Grade II Listed, as is the pub) located just outside this pub once stood outside the Great White Horse Hotel in Ipswich. It was badly damaged in the gales of early 2008 & was restored in August.

We have visited this pub once, seen 3 different beers and tried 1 of them.
