Food & Drink

Food
We offer the same menu and service throughout the pub and encourage guests to eat or drink where they feel most comfortable.

Our menu changes seasonally. Please find current menus below. If you’d like to be kept abreast of new menus or special events, please sign up here. We do not have a specific children’s menu, however, we can offer most of our dishes in any size or adaptation requested. It is a diverse menu that satisfies most tastes.

The majority of our suppliers are local - see below - and deliver daily, which allows a daily changing Specials Board.

See sample menus at the bottom of this page.

Please call, email or complete our form for reservation enquiries.

Drink
Drinks are primarily locally sourced too. Three of the four real ales on the hand pumps are permanent fixtures: Woodforde’s Wherry (Norfolk), Greene King IPA (Suffolk) and Adnams bitter (Suffolk), with the fourth pump rotating between smaller local micro breweries, such as City of Cambridge Hobson’s Choice, Nethergate Augustinian, Brandon Rusty Bucket.

We have about 40 wines on offer, supplied by Suffolk’s Adnams Wine, as well as H&H Bancroft and Matthew Clark covering most pockets and palates. At any one time 17 of these wines are available by the 175ml or 250ml glass, as well as 5 by the half bottle.
