The Best Pub in the World Possibly?

If you like traditional pubs and real ale this could be your idea of heaven. It’s fair hoof from the yacht station, get a cab, it’s worth it. Try 5 Star Taxis (01603 455555). They charged us £5 which is reasonable for the area. Also be warned, the pub is so popular it can get busy at peak times. The beer quality is amazing. The Woodforde’s Wherry is arguably the best you will find anywhere (and this includes the Fur and Feather). The reason is that they sell a lot of it, fast turnover and it’s always fresh. The range of beers which are available is incredible (25+). Try the Fat Cat Special, at £1.80 a pint it’s not only fantastic value but a superb beer to boot. Apparently the landlord has a passion for cleanliness. Just take a peek in the cellar. Cleanliness is next to godliness where beer is concerned and this could explain why this pub has been voted pub of the year on two occasions which is some achievement. Clean pub and cellar, good turnover of beer. Some of the Broads ‘chain’ pubs should take note. Also fast, friendly efficient service behind the bar, no midriffs here! Heaven? Not quite but very close!!

THE FAT CAT PUB

This pub is in a back street of Norwich . It is not on the river but if you like real ales this is the place for you. It has up to 28 real ales on at any one time and has fantastic rolls on the bar at 60p each. Try it you wont be disapointed.
