Yes, a lovely pub indeed. I have to agree with the poster who said that the furniture left something to be desired, though. What's wrong with trad wood tables, chairs and benches etc? Couldn't fault the friendly welcome and well kept beer and ss I shall return!

Quite busy on a weekday lunchtime. Nice selection of guest ales, in good condition. Bar snacks tasty.

It didn't have a bad pub atmosphere, either. It would have been more atmospheric but the total disaster of the choice of bar-room furniture, I wonder who on earth thought that was suitable for a pub.

Popped in for a pint fairly early in the afternoon on a Friday so was quiet. Barmaid very easy on the eye, nice pint of Adnams Southwold for me and also had Ghost Ship and one or two more. Has a homely feel.

This pub has really improved over the last couple of years. My husband and I have visited several times in the past for food and have had a fairly average pub experience, but our last Saturday evening visit surpassed our expectations.
I had the haddock with poached egg and hollandaise, and it was cooked to perfection! My husband had the mixed grill, which came with a various selection of meats, including a delicious sausage (we even asked the name of the butcher, it was that good). The portions were of a good hearty size, neither of us were left feeling hungry. Good selection of ales, and my favourite - aspalls cider.
The bar and waiting staff were really friendly, professional and polite. I decided to change my drink order and it was no problem to the waitress at all.
The interior of the pub is a mixture of traditional and modern which is nice. Just one tiny complaint though - pleated napkins in wine glasses isn't a good look, neither are faux flowers.

I would definitely recommend this pub to anyone. !!! 9/10

4 Ales/Aspall Cider - ale ok as was cider - expensive �3.10 pt - and why keep a parrot in a bar ffs!! Beccles is an unwelcoming place...Bungay is far nicer.
