The Bear Inn

Came for a meal with my partner and son last week, staff were fantastic, very pleasant and helpful and the food was amazing, best meal we have had out in a long time. The chicken florentine was so tasty and the desert was amazing, highly recommended to friends and family

I wanted a few days of peace on my own in a familiar area, where I was 'looked after'. The Bear fufilled all those wishes. The beautiful rustic charm of this long-historied building was delightful and clearly popular with local people and families, who found their food needs amply catered for. I loved the individual decor of my bedroom. Chris, managing The Bear, was friendly and helpful, as was everyone I met who worked there. The breakfasts were excellent and kept me going for the 2 days of walking I had planned. All the food was really good, of a high standard without being expensive. I enjoyed comfortable evenings tucked into a cosy corner, taking in the atmosphere while 'doing my own thing' sipping a good wine. I have recommended The Bear to friends and will return myself.

We held our wedding evening do at The Bear Inn in November 2024. The team were absolutely brilliant, nothing was too much for them they even sorted the DJ and cake for us and had the room decorated for our arrival. The Hog roast was amazing, I’m still receiving compliments on the food now. All completely affordable! Some of the family stayed overnight and we had breakfast in the morning which was absolutely delicious. We’ve since been back for dinner and the food was amazing yet again. Will continue to recommend them for food and a venue for events to anyone who asks!

Stayed two nights for a family Christmas nearby. Staff in pub attentive, friendly nothing too much trouble. Accommodation in a modern cottage opposite pub was superb, including little kitchenette and nice bedroom and sofa bed for teenager. Great experience. We will be back. They were especially understanding as I needed to cancel Christmas Eve booking as I was poorly and they let me add the day to Boxing Day night instead. Some places would have been less understanding. x

Little gem in the countryside Quaint pub family run with great hospitality Stayed for 1 night on our way home to Norwich Steak night, steaks where cooked to perfection proper chips as well Beer great selection and kept well. Lovely room mattress could do with a topper on it just my preference Could do with better entrance sign from the car park as we naturally walked round the front but it was at the back Keep up the good work we will be back nice to feel welcome xx

Firstly, this is no longer a carvery. Not worth the money, £19 for roast lamb Sunday lunch and received 3 pieces of small, wafer thin pieces of lamb. The staff were not interested in how we felt about it so we sent it them back. You’d have thought the profit made on these lunches, that they would invest some into maintaining the building like the ladies toilets that were moulding and peeling. This used to be a lovely little gem bit not now. Maybe under new owners perhaps.
