Captain Mamby's…read more There are two kinds of eating out in my view. For special occasions, when you are really prepared to push the boat out, there is nothing to beat a ride out through the countryside to one of the up market village gastro - pubs - or restaurants for which Norfolk can be justly proud. But then there are times when the wife simply wants a break from cooking Captain Mamby's is the place to visit. The daytime carvery with its selection of value for money great British cooking. On offer are tender cuts of freshly roasted meats, turkey, pork or beef, along with an accompaniment of fresh seasonal vegetables. Along of course with that good old fashioned welcolme. The daytime carvery is reasonably priced at just £5.00 per head and the evening carvery at £7.50 again is good for an evening meal out. There are old fashioned Norfolk and Suffolk beers on tap along side the popular names. One has no need to book at Captain Mamby'sbut be warned it gets very busy at both sittings. The decor is superb done out in an oldy worldy atmosphere so one can enjoy both drinks and meals in style. B

Real ale available and food served most of the day, I think. If not, there is a cafe next door. You can also get there by train, which stops at its own station, please check train times as they are a bit erratic. There is outside seating, overlooking the Broad and it catches the sun, so don't forget your tanning lotion. If you are looking for a tranquil stop, visit here, it's is worth the walk.

The Village Maid…read more Is your typical country pub, opposite there is a duck pond, and I believe the pub itself dates back to the early 18th century. Here you can try out some fine beers from local breweries with strange names like Broadsword which is quite strong. The meals are very good and enjoyable plus they have quite a selection to choose from and there is always a vegetarian option. This place gets quite busy at the weekends though so if your think of eating here book early. A good place to enjoy a meal and quite reasonable priced as well.

In the fact it's a 'Spoons it should be obvious that they do cheap, medium quality food and cheap drinks. Certainly nothing to complain about there. I had an 8oz rump steak, chips, sauce, onion rings and a drink today for less than £8. There is really nothing to complain about. I've given it four stars because that's really a comprimise between 1 star when it's busy and 4 stars when it's not. For instance this evening, a Wednesday evening, I had a most superb night with my friends, we sat and drew and chatted and ate and it was jolly marvellous. There's no music and not empty but there's no worry about getting a table. All the good things about a pub. However when it's busy on a Friday or Saturday evening it's my idea of hell. Great Yarmouth is a horrible town and all the horrible people come out at the weekend to shout at you, drink too much and vomit everywhere. Forget trying to eat past 6pm as the place is totally rammed with locals spilling their drinks, arguing loudly and fighting. So yes, during the week it's a perfectly pleasant branch of 'Spoons with friendly bar staff, cheap food and drinks, a few regulars of the old and bearded ale-drinking variety and a good selection of corners to sit in. However, at the weekend it's too loud, the bar is way too busy, there's nowhere to sit and you may very well get stabbed.
