Wonderful corner local in a little pocket of Norwich that is blessed with real ale pubs. Friendly staff as well. You could easily spend the day in here drinking the delicious CHB.

A good selection of well-kept ales - always including CHB and a couple of guest beers - excellent food, a pleasant atmosphere and friendly staff and locals, the Alex is a down-to-earth boozer that's equally good in winter (when there's a roaring fire in the lounge bar) or in the summer (when you can sit at the tables or park your pint on the barrels outside). If you're fortunate enough to live in the Earlham Road-dreham Road area, then you probably - and should - already know this pub. But if not, it's well worth the 25 minute walk from the city centre. All in all, the perfect Local.

Friendly community local serving great ales.

Friendly staff, friendly locals and tasty ale. The food's good as well. Nice little selection of board games tucked in the corner - perfect for helping pass the time on a cold winters evening (next to the open fire). I could go on... but I'll just have to leave it up to you to discover for yourself!

Clean friendly local with substantial student audience. Not a bad pub but nothing to rave about.
|
Popped in here for a pint on my maiden voyage to Norwich - really enjoyed it. Great atmosphere and great beer - will return.
|
Great pub with a friendly atmosphere. The Pool table is popular with the locals. Not rammed like the Fat Cat and the beer is good as is the food.
|
Lively but friendly back street local serving beesr from the Norwich Chalk Hill Brewery. Food available until 7pm
|
I felt that the beer I had was slightly on the warm side on what was an exceptionally hot day.
|
Nice and unspoilt, beers always on form. Typical friendly local.
|
Jewel in crown of my first Norwich visit and going back tomorrow. Real "local" with belting beer and (unobtrusive) meals & snacks, great staff, best jukebox in world, a guv'nor who's rowing across the Atlantic and a football-playing dog.

Excellent local on the other side of the Dereham Road from the famous Fat Cat. For my money, with a more restricted range of beers, it manages to surpass the Cat for atmosphere and general bonhomie
