    When in Bury, you must go to the Nutshell. If you're visiting from out of town, this pub will make you truly feel like you're in London. It's your neighborhood pub, but it's small- London's tiniest pub to be exact. They serve beer and spirits, but cash only! No worries- There's a ATM across the street in case you're short on cash. At the Nutshell, everyone becomes your friend. Start small talk. For heck sake it's tiny enough! You never know who you might meet! Drink- Mingle- and Cheers!

    Small size Big hearts! We spent time there having a pint and listening to the local color.

    Known for being the smallest pub, l had to check it out. The atmosphere is welcoming and friendly. There is seating although not much. Beer choices are limited but honestly it's a cool place. It's worth stopping in and having a pint. The bartender was nice and helpful.

    In advance of a day trip to Bury St. Edmunds (from Ely, where I am staying for the week), I…read moreconsulted Yelp for ideas about restaurants in Bury. The one which stood out was Pea Porridge but when I stood outside lamenting upon how expensive their fabulous menu was, I simply turned 90 degrees anti-clockwise and into The Old Cannon Brewery. This turned out to be an excellent alternative, especially the hot-smoked salmon Caesar salad for starter. I'd never had a salmon Caesar before but this made me want more. For mains, I opted for the sausages, which were really tasty as was the summer fruits pudding afterwards. For vegetarians, rather than having separate menu items, some of the existing dishes are also available in vegetarian format. Being a microbrewery, their own beers appealed to me rather than bigger commercial names and it was good to see that they made a range of beers which could be tried in tasting trays of 3 or 6. I had chosen 2 of them (Stout and Black Pig) before I went through the door but these were not available. Only 3 of their ales were on (Best Bitter, Brewer's Daughter and Blonde Bombshell) so I had them. It was good to see on the menu that the brews contributed to the food through their own beer batter.

    Great lunch and I live the NA beer on tap. Service is friendly and they really take care of their…read moretables. Ambiance? Yes, there is.
