The Hero, Burnham Overy Staithe

A bizarre ordering system where you find a table, order outdoors then await (friendly) table service. This leads to lengthy delays even for drinks and was bemusing the London lads up for a wedding. If you pick the right outside table then you might get a view of the River Burn but otherwise it's just the main road to watch. My pint of Wherry was in good condition.

The Lifeboat, Thornham

Full of character and an ideal place to stop for a couple of pints on a Monday afternoon. Greene King IPA and Abbot Ale, Woodforde's Wherry and Nelson Ale, and (Wolf's?) Lifeboat Ale were the 5 handpulls - I tried the Nelson which was in good order.

Black Horse Inn, Castle Rising

We were the only visitors on a Friday afternoon earlier this month although the chap behind the bar told us that they had plenty of bookings for dinner. It's a pity that the only ale offerings are Greene King IPA and Abbot Ale but, to be fair, my Abbot was the best pint of its kind that I had ever had.
