I have been drinking here on holidays, first 1996. As an independent pub, they had a good line in pub grub. Now, as fully part of Adnams, it was pizza from black dog. Not my taste. The pub has a great atmosphere and I included a picture of me with pint on the road to show the view. The selection of beers is great if you like me love Adnams. A word of caution, it’s cash less, cards only. This is true in all Adnams.
My partner and friend ate the pizza which I know is done by a separate company. She said it was top notch.
We all enjoyed first class customer service and brilliant Adnams beer.
Really nice clean pub, friendly staff with a good choice of Adnams beer. Really worth a visit. We didn't eat, but the food looked amazing.
Great pub, we didn’t have food as the kitchen was closed the day we visited. Great staff. I have given 4 out of 5 stars because the beer was limited to the brewery, although they had 2 types of lager they were not to my husbands liking.
I would love this pub as my local. When it is quieter during the week and out of season, it is a great reminder of what pubs used to be like, people chatting to each other, dogs a sleep under tables and good ale. Only trouble is it's where everybody wants to be on a summers weekend evening. Hey ho can't have everything. Still a bit of a cracker.
Can be the busiest pub in Southwold, so you might not get in at peak times. The Nelly stopped doing food a couple of years ago, but now has a guest pizzeria serving Friday to Tuesday - pizzas look and smell fantastic. As usual, Adnams have great staff serving here and you'll find all their usual beers, ciders, wines and spirits available.
Surprisingly busy on a cold winters weekend afternoon. Cosy and with a good range of beers. Nice walks a views nearby.
Lovely to be able to sit and drink at a pub which is not serving food. Plenty of room for drinkers! Of course an Adnams pub, this is Southwold! Five draft beers on site, all tasted excellent. I did have a Rye whiskey chaser. Very enjoyable.
The pub has a front room, and a small snug on the side seating 8 in two tables. There is an musing set of cartoons by the Norfolk cartoonist Tony Hall.
To the right of the bar, past the loos is an outside seating area. Missed this on entry, but we were happy in the snug area to the left of the bar.
In difficult times we were given a warm welcome in this lovely pub. Rammed on our visit on Saturday afternoon but managed to get a table. Guy behind bar very friendly. Good Ales, Adnams of course, excellent mulled wine as well. Well done.
Great place to relax with a pint.
Outside benches that face the sea out front are perfect for relaxing with a good beer.
About 10-12 beers/ales to choose from on tap, including the best Adnams brands as well.
1 pint will cost about 4 pounds, so look for the specials.
