Best Gastro Pubs in Fakenham

Fantastic as always, they just never disappoint. Great food in a lovely environment with friendly service. The menu changes on a regular basis and uses delicious fresh local ingredients. We will keep coming back !

A very nice place, food, drink and service! Highly recommend

Table service to order took a while, but to be fair to staff, they were very busy. Staff were all polite and professional. Food was plentiful. I ordered pork belly, mash and veg and my husband ordered battered fish and chips. My pork belly was huge! But rather salty and I had so much on my plate, I could only eat half of the meal, same for my husband. Therefore, I had to take mine home in a box for later. Food was very fresh and very hot. I will definitely return, but maybe in daylight, as the car park and path to the carpark were not lit, so it was difficult to see where you're going.

27 December is a busy time for all good pubs and restaurants. The Bucks Arms was no exception. Though obviously under considerable pressure, the staff worked quickly and efficiently to take orders and bring food. The menu is extensive and varied, with separate sections for meat, fish, vegetarian, a children's menu and small plates and starters. We never reached the desserts as our first two courses were very large and very filling. Excellent cooking. Helpfully, the menu was on the website. The location is, of course, sublime and the pub itself unassuming and slightly old-fashioned, a wonderful, traditional, place. if you're visiting Blickling and want a meal or a drink at the bar, don't miss the Bucks Arms.

We all had a fabulous lunch on Saturday. The staff and food were excellent. Our table in the bar was so cosy next to the fire and the children were able to play the board games, which got them off their phones for quite a while! Thanks to all the staff for being so lovely and friendly. The food really was first class and the whole restaurant felt like a Christmas film, perfect!
