Mid afternoon on an unseasonably cool May Thursday.
A late lunch was needed-fortunately food was available,alongside an impressive range of cask beer.Friendly pub, with a good buzz.

Mid afternoon. Saw this in the GBG and headed for it after a brief trip into Bury St Eds.
Worth it - good choice of ales and food. We had a late lunch in the garden and relaxed by the fountain in warm sunshine.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cliff Quay - Sea Dog | 5.50 | | Yummy. |
| Shortts Farm - Hunky Dory | 4.10 | | Light golden ale in top condition. I assume the brewery is correct - pump clip stated “Shortts Brewery Suffolk”. |
| Earl Soham - Victoria Bitter | 3.60 | Not Tried | |
| Lincoln Green - Tuck Porter | 4.70 | Not Tried |
