Britannia Pier in Great Yarmouth

The amusements on the pier were all closed but arcades down stairs were great fun

We go here regularly as a family we love the camel racing especially. It's a very old pier with that classical old school vibe. Never had a bad time plenty of arcade action and the rides at the end are quite fun. The show bar has many shows on throughout the year but haven't seen one myself but heard great things.

Lots for kids to do. Full spead of cafe, pub, amusements, etc. Or just walk the length.

Lots to do on the pier to keep the kids entertained. Nice see food stall as well which is recommended 👍👍

It's lovely to see the pier still operating successfully as it holds great memories for me over the last 60 years, whether myself, my children, or grandchildren

What more do you need than Britainia pier ! Arcades, Cafe, Pub,Doughnuts... did you say a mini Mario race track? Yes, it has that, too. Camel racing? Of course it's here .. Theatre? You know it's here ..you want a mini Child sized theme park just next door.. OK it's yours. Why wouldn't you come here It's difficult to not Love Yarmouth .. yes it's a deprived sea side town, but .. they all are . Look past that and see the yarmouth I see. A cheap, fun family day out . Just don't get your crab nets caught up in the pier... we do every time

Lovely place good views and plenty todo.

Loved it, very friendly and dog 🐕 friendly.

Great couple of hours passed away

Seats need upgrading as not comfortable to sit in for 2 hrs and constantly getting up and down to let people go for a drink or toilet , spoils the evening.

Nice place to visit and enjoy a nice cold beer

Had lots of fun in the amusements

Proper old seaside pier plenty to do for all the family fish shops pubs the lot

Well kept heritage. Booths on pier outside the bar very useful for all year round visitors

Seats for shows are small with limited leg room. Also if one person wants to get out the whole row has to.

Seats very small and packed in very tightly

This was an interesting visit when my wife and I saw some attractions had a coffee and a meal at the fish and chip shop.

Not alot to do, the downstairs amusements smells and isn't worth going down the steps for.

Fantastic place to visit loads to do and see

Fantastic friendly staff very helpful

Great food and drink great for the kids

Best donuts ever!!! The reason for only 3 stars, is you have to go downstairs to visit the arcade. I am a disabled lady whom, simply, can not do stairs.

Good shows, but seating could do with an improvement as chairs too close together and not enough leg room so you end up being crammed in a tiny seat with not much room to move, didn't have much space for disabled people either.

Not bad, nice views, lots of slot machines.

Quick visit,But we'll worth it.

We strolled to the piers' end,stopped, and had a drink in the sunshine,people watching,it was relaxing.

Lively friendly place family friendly

Was pretty good had a few coin machines and reasonable prizes :)

OK pier amusements wise. The downstairs amusements at the beginning of pier not great...problems with several of the machines. Amusements further along much better. Main criticism is no toilets! Asked and there were no public toilets along the pier at all. So go before...or take a bucket 😆

had a great day out in great Yarmouth parking pay and display was a bit high £6 .90 for four hrs but near marina was more up £36 for the day but plenty to do and see had a great day 🌞

It's a nice pier to visit. Although most shops were closed as the children have gone back to school. There was one food shop open.which is quite overpriced. The arcades need a face lift.

Really enjoyed the American car show and rock n roll band at the front

Absolutely brilliant, plenty to do

Nice place but be ready to spent fortune on 2p machines 😃😃😃

It's a bit shabby, but still a brilliant place!

Loved the pub at the end of the pier

Lovely place, so quaint and clean, great to while away some time, especially when you have the weather

The drifters were great and put a good show on.

Really good few hrs on pier, rides were ok, would give ghost train a miss though as it was disappointing

Good to visit an very busy Good food

Brilliant for both adults nd kids

Lovely pier with lots of activities along it including a camel derby roll the ball game and a theatre. Ideally located next to Joyland for smaller children and right next to the donkey rides along the beach.

Looks nice, didn't actually go on it just walked past.

Small but well packed pier with plenty to do for people of all ages

Lovely show & staff. Nice to experience a seaside tradition once again.

Fantastic night watching "Thank you for the music" 🎶

I've known the owner since it opened

Old fashioned but none the worse for that!

The show was brilliant. But we were sat at the front left of the stage right in front of a very large chilled drinks cabinet and bar. Getting to our seats took ages because hoardes of people were clogging the walkways either lost and couldn't find their seats or were trying to get to this bar. If that wasn't bad enough when the show started the staff manning the bar left the fridge on with its bright lights glaring and distracting you as the act starts. Then proceeded to clink and clonk bottles replenishing the fridge for 25 minutes obviously for the interval. It was so distracting and the fridge was making a whirring noise every time it was opened. Then when the second part of the show began even the act on stage said erm don't mind me are you going to turn that light off and be quiet. No response from the staff. It was so distracting while they then proceeded to tidy up clinking bottles again and opening and closing the fridge! We won't be returning we travelled 3 hours to see the act and to sample the delights of the pier and theatre and we're really disappointed that a theatre sets up a bar front of house where everyone can see and hear them and distracts you from the act on stage while they fill it up during the act then tidy up during the second half so they can get home early. Poor.

My kid works on one of the food outlets very nice place staff are polite and helpful

Lots of comedy shows on here and some amusement arcades along with a great fish and chip restaurant and a few sweet shops. Not forgetting the doughnuts on sale as well!

Super show, we need more of them here.

Amazing place... and prices are reasonable

Beautiful pier lots to do for the family definitely recommend

Very nice for the young children lots to do.

Lovely place ,had a great day here an all of the sea front an great Yarmouth

Seen a couple of great shows the only problem was the toilets the smell made you want to throw up lots of people made remarks about this (get some bleach )

Like many of the seaside town, the pier is a little run down, and could be doing with a fresh approach!

Plenty of things to do for the whole family. Arcade machine and kids rides.

Place itself is lovely, but there was a lot closed down.

Saw Sarah Millican here. Omg, so funny! My only complaint is that the theater got very hot with little or no ac or fans going.

Great for holiday makers and shows at the theatre at the end of the pier

Everything you would expect from a seaside pier your normal win teddies arcades sweets and treats win tokens for prizes ect. Very clean and tidy.

Show was excellent- saw Sarah milligan. The theatre is dated and was extremely hot

I have been to a number of shows here. Great venue in the centre of Yarmouth. Some fantastic big name acts are shown here. The Drifters have brought me back for a repeat performance and there will be more visits to see them in the future I hope. Sarah Millican was my mist recent visit. Great show.

Mostly amusements, ice-cream and not much else. The Theatre was shut!

Exactly what you would expect from an English seaside town and pier and the sun was out !

Went to see Totally Tina. The performance was fantastic. Amazing that a show that has run for several years can remain energetic and really enjoyable. Personally I was disappointed that the theatre was not packed. A reflection on the economic climate I think. Seats are a little 'snug' otherwise all OK.

Theatre is looking a bit tired, but that didn't take away from the experience

Amusements galore, rides rubbish. Some lovely, ice cream stalls and donuts which a cooked to order. Great views from here.

Great attraction, top fun for the family 👪 👍🏻

Went to see Sarah Millican great show not laughed so much for a long time

The theatre needs a refurbishment. Seats not very comfortable.

Brilliant show, frankie vallie and the four seasons 👏

Venue is outdated . Seating not very comfortable.

Really nice pier with a nice theme park. Got a few arcades and a Cafe

VERY old sad looking theatre, lovely atmosphere but very worn down & tired looking. Sitting very tight & not much airflow on a very hot evening. Nice that a well known comedian with a large following Sarah Milligan performing there.

Always brings back memories, hours on pier as a child, spent many hours in Long Bar in my 20s, then had kiddies so hours on beach, now all grown up and back to pub!!! The circle of a happy life.

The seats were quite uncomfortable and not very accommodating. I’m not a very large person (size 16) and I found it quite stuffy as I was squashed between myself and another couple. Entry into the show was ok but a lot of the other visitors had trouble finding their seat and there weren’t enough members of staff available to help them so there were long lines of people waiting right up until the show start. At the end of the show there was a very long wait to leave as everyone was pushing and blocking the exit to try and get multiple badges (they were offered ‘one each as a memento for the show’) and only one of the two exit doors was open to leave the venue. Aside from the points mentioned above once the show had started I could see Sarah Millican from my seat in Z section quite well and enjoyed her performance!

Krispies Fish and Chip shop is located at the entrance to the pier. It's a hidden gem. The staff were lovely, Kelly was very helpful with allergy information and they double checked their records for my husband to reassure him as he has an egg allergy. Food was served hot and timely. We will definitely be eating there again. They have high chairs for children and access for a wheelchair.

Worth a visit whilst in Great Yarmouth. So close to the main shopping Regent Street and has amusements and food and drink for all ages. You can to the side go to the beach or into Joy lands for the younger kids to enjoy. The theatre has some big names performing so worth looking and booking in advance.

Lots of places to sit and relax

Nice, but mainly all amusements and some rides, which were not working. Amazing ice cream and donut stalls, plus other stalls. Grabber machines, racing cars for younger children. A carousel and a water shooting game.

Nice chip shop/ restaurant recently refurbished

Great show, bit warm in the venue. Still recommend it to anyone if there is a show or act you are going to see.

Great British seaside pier, with fairground rides, bars, and amusements, at the centre of Great Yarmouths golden sandy beach

Amazing area where at the moment there is fire works every Wednesday till end of August.

Lovely and clean, helpful staff and not over priced for a Pier

Chip portions poor. £3.50 for less than a handful of chips. Go over to regent fish and chips instead. Twice as many freshly cooked to order. Pier is tired and loud. Great for about 5 minutes then move on.

Good Place To Spend Time And Explore. Plenty Of Rides & Vendors

Lovely place but very expensive compared to the fact it is Yarmouth

Beautiful, majestic place for a walk along the promenade. Visited during the week when the beach was quiet except for a few school classes. I could see the teachers had their hands full but the children seem to have a wonderful time defying the laws of physics on some of the equipment. It was nice to hear the glee and laughter of the children playing under the close supervision of the teachers. Walked about five miles along the promenade and beaches. Unlike Mexico, the water is cold, of course, and the sand is coarse and rough on your feet at times so people wore footwear and no one was swimming despite it being summer. I'm used to the flour like sand that massages your feet in Mexico. Lol. The seagulls here are bigger, noisy and unabashed. It was a good walk. People, as I think is customary of the English, are a bit more formal so it was a bit tough not to smile and greet everyone my son and I encountered, though I did and perhaps looking like a foreigner, some of the folks were gracious enough to greet us in return. My son who has been in the UK for a few years kept laughing saying, this isn't Mexico... We spent the day walking throughout the town. I love that we can walk the town unlike the USA that requires a car. There were some poor areas, but no one was shooting at each other, so it seemed very safe, I think. The beauty of nature meets capitalism here. But it seems a fun place for children.

Enjoyed the walk along fresh air

Very busy. Fun in the arcades. Fee to enter now.

Clean pier lots to do so many different types are arcade machines,

Very nice place got plenty to do on the pier

Not the best pier by any standard. Only good aspect is that there are plenty of seats. Bad stuff: noisy, plasticky, worn out faded seaside stalls and very expensive, poor quality seaside food eg cod and chip dinner £13.95 per serving!!

Advertising all euro games,once you purchase drinks telling you there not showing it.DONT ADVERTISE it then. Toilets filthy I'd avoid.

Always good amusements and seaside refreshments

Such a lovely day yesterday. It was clean and everyone was so friendly.
