The Coach and Horses Inn in King's Lynn and West Norfolk

Very accommodating as there were 13 of us for Sunday lunch. Nothing was too much trouble. Staff friendly. Food was lovely. Will definitely be visiting again

We were 4 adults and two small dogs, we had a delicious Sunday roast beef with all the trimmings very generous portions and a selection of no less than six fresh vegetables all cooked to perfection, the roast beef was delicious there is a great atmosphere in this old traditional pub. As soon as we arrived a bowl of water was placed under the table for our dogs then little placemats were brought out for them and they too had a full roast dinner with all the trimmings. John was very attentive and nothing was too much trouble whilst Paul cooked an excellent dinner all from scratch, wouldn’t hesitate to highly recommend to all and we will certainly be going back very soon…….Perfect afternoon, made even more enjoyable as we could take our pooches. Thank you to the owners Paul and John.

Walked to the Coach & Horses for a Sunday lunch whilst away for a few days with some good friends. We had the traditional Sunday lunch followed by delicious desert and drinks all round. Service was great meeting all our needs and good banter all round. When the bill arrived all members of our party questioned to cost as it was so cheap. Will definitely return when in the area again and would certainly recommend to others.

If you like good pub food at a reasonable price in an old coaching inn - eat here. If you like multiple tiny courses in a gastro pub for high prices - then don’t come here!

We've eaten here before and always had lovely food, plenty of it and in a fabulous atmosphere. Today we went for a Sunday roast for the first time. Oh my goodness! We were not disappointed ! Possibly the best roast I have had out since I can remember. Food all piping hot, tasty and good quality. As always such a lovely atmosphere. Thank you guys, yet again we left feeling very full after a pleasant visit .

So..... we're scattered over the country..... London, West Mids so after receiving some sad news, we needed to attend a funeral in the Kings Lynn area. We needed a place for a family meal after. And..... we found this place. From the first phone call to see if Coach and Horses could help us, nothing was any bother at all. We arrived and the welcome was so warm, the setting was perfect and we instantly new we had made a cracking choice. Nice pint of Guiness etc was enjoyed and then the food turned up...... oh wow, home made lasagne, some had home made cottage pie so so nice, and good portions too. I'm a big lad and it filled me up. Squeezed a traditional pudding in too but I was stuffed. But..... the main bit for us was the staff, so so caring and attentive and any pressures or concerns instantly went out the window. I can't say enough but for us what is and was a sad time was so helped by how we were looked after. Thank you guys n girls we will be back most definitely.

recently changed hands, so thought we would give it a go and see if it was any good. A very warm welcome from friendly staff who actually go out of their way to provide good service. a fairly varied menu of traditional dishes, but excellent quality and value for money Good Beer Clean and tidy with ambience to spare we have been back a few times and even tried the Sunday roast i certainly recommend a visit

John, Paul and staff at the Coach and Horses Tilney, Thank you so much for the wonderful spread you prepared for my husband's wake yesterday. We were absolutely delighted with your efforts and you should be really proud of yourselves and the quality of your food and services. Thank you again. X

Don't even know where to begin. Thye had no bread, milk, tomatoes, eggs salmon etc. etc. etc. We could not even get a cup of tea or coffee because there was NO milk. The food we did get was awful. I don't know who they must have had for a cook. (not a chef) My steak was as dry as a bone, got another one which was awful All sinue, not a rump steak. My friend's chips and onion rings were COLD. The TV was turned up so loud we could not bear it, neither could the other couples in there. They had to be asked twice to please turn it down. The Manager had a terrible attitude problem from the start. I even got chastised for using the disability rest room. I am 77 with osteo. and other health problems. There was a family of very loud and rowdy children that we were told were relative of someone that works there, totally out of order. Whoever was responsible for ordering supplies must have been non-existent. Terrible terrible, rude and exasperating Manager. Shame on you. P.S was not even offered a rebate on the terrible food.

We were staying in a holiday accommodation nearby and this was the nearest pub / eatery. The landlady and staff were lovely and accommodated eight of us and two dogs easily for food on a Saturday evening. The food was really nice and filling, great value for money too. Nice outdoor area for drinking and eating. The pub was clean, warm and well set out. Would definitely recommend if you are staying in the area or live nearby.

Prawn cocktail, liver and bacon plus mash and veg, apple crumble and custard. All well prepared, all well presented, all served in a very amiable way.........and all for £12-00. Fantastic value in warm, hospitable, historic surroundings tastefully adorned for the Christmas season. The menu we used is available Wednesdays and Thursdays.

Used to visit before Lockdown and the new owners. So pleasantly surprised when I visited today for Sunday lunch. We were looked after by our host and the attentive waitresses, shown to a spotless table and quickly served. The helpings were very good, piping hot, and beautifully cooked. In my case, pork, with five veg, Yorkshire pud, new and roast potatoes. Desert was a lovely treacle pudding, with lashings of creamy custard. Despite the pub being busy, we were looked after very well and never hurried. Their 'everyday' menu was standard 'Pub' food, sensibly priced, and if anything like their Sunday food, I will look forward to sampling it soon.

Lovely proper pub ❤️ Thank you Sally for making our family visit so special 👸🏻 Delicious food, great ambience x Inside & outside seating x

Such a lovely find. I called ahead to book a table for the kids and I. Arrived to the car park and the most beautiful huge garden. Inside was laid out perfectly for Covid-19 and everything was clear and easy to understand. Kids menu was perfect and adults menu was the specials board with plenty of choice. Had a chat with the licensees after dinner and the building has so much history. Could have stayed all night chatting with them but the kids were starting to beat each other up. Thanks for your hospitality, will save and definitely return when passing.

WHAT A WONDERFUL FIND. We visited this lunchtime (11/3/20) and had a fantastic Pensioners meal for £6.95 each. I had liver, mash and veg in a very tasty onion gravy and my husband had the cod, chips and mashy peas followed by spotted dick and I had a wonderful (like your mum used to make) bread and butter pudding. So pleased we've found you and looking forward to coming for a Sunday dinner soon. Well done and thank you. Can thoroughly recommend to everyone.

We visited here for a meal with friends, it had been many years since our last visit and the place has not changed much. There are new owners and there was an improved atmosphere, it is an old style country pub with history, lots of horse brasses hanging from large oak beams and a welcoming large open fireplace. The normal drinks selection at reasonable prices. Very much a local type pub. The food was home cooked and very nice, I would say normal pub fair but as home cooked a bit nicer. All meals arrived well plated and in good time, a good size and hot. We all enjoyed the meals ordered. It was not award winning but so much better than the standard pub chain food.The staff were polite and helpful and the place clean and tidy. It was a bit quiet but it is a bit off the main road now there is a bypass. Worth turning off for though. Plenty of parking and room to turn a caravan round if you're off to the coast and fancy stopping for refreshments.

Have eaten here a few times and never been disappointed . Staff are friendly and service good . Our Sunday lunch yesterday was beautiful . Would recommend this pub to anyone and is good value too .

Called in on new yrs Eve at 530 web site says open, no sign of life. Also popped in for a beer the previous Friday with the dog. Dogs not welcome

Had a meal for 4 people and each one was cooked perfectly and well presented. Would highly recommend.

Called in for Sunday lunch, whilst on holiday in the area, without reserving a table - we had just timed it right as a couple were just leaving what was a full dining area. Don't know the age of the building but pretty old.The meal was very good but we were particularly impressed with the nachos (starter) which appeared to have been home madeStaff friendly and efficient

I was recommended to eat here where I was staying locally. Gravel car park which is huge. Not a great deal to choose from on the menu, but what is served is first class. I saw meals being served to others and the portions are large. I had the home-made lasagne, salad and chips, very good indeed. Sensibly priced. Friendly bar-staff, 3 real ales on, plenty of tables to choose from. I will return. Handy just off the A47 by-pass too. Well done the team of staff who run this place.

Went for dinner on Friday night and back Sunday for a Roast. Great food on both occasions, friendly staff, roaring fire too. Great value and the food was great as were the drinks. Nothing too much trouble!

Lovely historic coaching inn with character! Fabulous food really recommend when you want food home cooked food. The landlady made us welcome & we will definitely return. Delicious home cooked pie & my partner had fish and chips, delicious peas! I had to sample both dishes! Fabulous

I'd looked at the website and thought this looked a nice place to celebrate our anniversary. On arrival the pub didn't really look like the website inside, unless I read it wrong. The bar area is well used by locals which is fine, shows a good atmosphere. We were seated in the rear which didn't really look restaurant like, more café.The food is good standard pub grub which is great! However, the female barmaid was very polite and helpful and the food was very good. Good points is it allows dogs, friendly atmosphere and reasonable prices.We would go again if in the area. Good pub and food, keep up the good work, well done!

Just driving around we came across the Coach and Horses at Tilney.

It is pretty standard pub grub at a fair price. It is a comfortable place and the service is pleasant. There is a choice of cask beer from Elgood's. Just off the A47 and worth a short detour.

Not a planned stop on our journey home but called in for lunch. Very nice atmosphere with great service from people who obviously love the place. Decor a bit 'tired' and out of the 1970s but this did not detract from a lovely lunch with fantastic food. I had the liver and bacon, which not many places can do successfully but this was very tasty. Would definitely take a detour off the A47 again to call in for a bite to eat. Varied menu catered for all tastes and there were plenty of sandwiches and jacket potatoes for those who did not want a full meal.

Ate here twice and aslo called for drinks on a recent holiday near Kings Lynn. It is hearty home cooked pub grub, the menu isnt extensive but all the better for it. The pie of the day on our 2nd visit was steak and onion. Juicy chunks of melt in the mouth steak, not a hint of fat or gristle, well cooked crispy puff pastry top - not just added as a "topper" but actually cooked with the filling, fresh veg (not frozen) and actually tasting as it should - so many eateries serve tasteless veg nowadays, but not here. Couldnt fit a pud in the second time but on the 1st visit a jam sponge and yummy custard and a heavenly strawberry cheesecake went down with no problem. I think the chips may be frozen but they were crispy not soggy.

Nice lunch in a nice old fashioned pub, everything was nice and the service was good. Would recommend for lunch.

We'd heard good things about the new people, Dee and her son Matt, and weren't disappointed. Lovely food, great log fire in the inglenook, very comfortable seating, good menu. They do a curry night on Wednesday which looked good value and a steak night on Fridays both run alongside the usual menu. Also the over 60's lunch on Wednesdays has a restricted but good choice and is very reasonably priced. Definitely return

Called in here for lunch on way home from Kings Lynn. Having read the reviews we expected an above average meal. However we are sad to say we did not get the sort of meal that, the reviews suggested we would get. I had salmon and although it was nicely cooked it was quite a small piece. What was amazing it was served dry with no sauce. Surely a nice hollandaise is not impossible to make. My dish was served with a pat of butter The vegetables were okay but nothing to shout about. My wife had the chicken and mushroom pie. She enjoyed this and there was lots meat in the dish but it needed more mushroom and sauce. All in all and average meal at a reasonable price.

We ate at The Horse and Groom one night last week, I had fish and chips - a HUGE piece of fish! - and my partner had scampi and chips. The fish and chips meal was not in the slightest bit greasy, it's not often I actually manage to finish a whole plate of F&C; but I did this time!

New management and staff are courteous and friendly and the food and drink were great. Would recommended without hesitation.

I have visited several times & eaten three times since the 'RE opening two months ago.

Very welcoming hosts. Great tasty meals. Speedy service in pleasant surroundings.will definitely return. Will take friends & relatives for meals & social drinking.

This is our third visit here since they re opened in July.... food is fantastic and the staff are great!! Would definitely recommend

Myself and three friends went for a meal on the hop and I must say we Had a beautiful meal I had the cottage pie and I have to say I have never had one so good in my life such a handy village pub and close by for us

I have visited the Coach & Horses a few times recently. The staff are friendly, the food is lovely and the beer is top notch too! They have a pool table and darts board and tables outside so you can enjoy that ice cold drink in the sun on a hot summer's day. Certainly worth a visit with the family

A very nice evening in a very nice local pub, we all ate here with a mixture of burgers, steak, fish and chips and fish pie al of which was enjoyable. The staff were all very helpful and polite.

Stopped off here for lunch on way to Hunstanton and It proved to be a good choice. It is cosy village pub with very friendly staff. The food was reasonably priced, excellent with generous portions. My Wife loved the soup and our lovely server even went to trouble of printing off the recipe for her.

Had to eat in noisy small bar as we had dog with us. That was disappointing, however the food made up for it as it was very good.

We stopped here en route whilst on holiday. We had a dog with us & she was welcome in the bar area but not in the restaurant which was quite acceptable. Lovely food, spectacular views if you eat on the balcony area, not cheap but very nice food indeed & good, friendly service.

La comida fabulosa, un servicio amable y un montón de opciones. Bacalao y patatas fritas eran increíble como la carne asada del domingo, budín de Yorkshire, patatas asadas y verduras 3 incluido. Buenas sidras y cervezas de barril. Son los mejores alrededor y siempre están ocupados! Comimos allí tres veces en los 10 días que estuvimos en la zona!

Aparecimos para comer en un día ocupado, y no nos decepcionó. Habíamos oído cosas buenas sobre el autobús y los caballos, y absolutamente a la altura de la merecida reputación de que goza.

Popped in here on the way back from shopping in Lynn with my mum. Staff were helpful and the food was enjoyable. The only downside was I would have liked it slightly hotter.

Si quieres una esquina tranquila y agradable y una noche agradable, este es el lugar para ir. Después de probar los otros bares en el área local, te terminas con la cadena de pub predecible fiasco de niños y adolescentes y comida americana, o la lamentable situación de que no se sirve comida.

Mientras en vacaciones comimos aquí tres veces. Eso debe decir todo. Cada vez la comida era excelente, buen tamaño de porción, sabroso y cocinado a la perfección. El personal es muy amable y atento. La otra mitad me encantó el ale! ! Si cada vuelta en la zona, sin duda volveremos.

Had a really good meal here, ribeye steak with homemade chips and all the trimmings. Others in the party had, the sausages (all 6 of them!) and the ham (4 thick slices).Apparently all food is homemade which is good.

Este es un excelente pub con una gran selección de cervezas, buena comida y un agradable equipo de detrás de la barra. Hay un jardín de la cerveza en caso el clima recoge y algunos juegos para los niños. No puedes equivocarte con una visita a este premiado local.

phoned up late for a table but they fitted us in we sat near window overlooking fields they had a log burning open fire felt very warm and cozy lovely couple who own this made to feel very welcome had a roast which was all home cooked my daughter who is very pickey and dosnt eat much wanted chicken nuggets so they cooked them for her special very impressed and will def return

I have never been so humiliated by the people who are running this pub. Went this evening for a meal to have to wait for an hour for my food to be brought out burnt and looking like something the cat brought up?? Myself and my mother ordered lasagna my mother's had 3 layers and a burnt top mine had one layer and I was unable to cut the top as It was black so burnt. I complained and the waitress just tool it away no apology nothing ? When I asked what was going on I was just ignored .... I went to the bar and asked I was greeted my the lady in charge who wanted to argue that I was talking rubbish and that the two lasagna we had came from the same dish ? How when one had 3 layers and the other had one layer ? I am a fully qualified chef and know the lasagna which were served tonight was not from the same dish ? When I continued to fight my corner she got the chef out of the kitchen to argue in the middle of the bar in front of other customers ?? Also asking other customer if their meal was ok ? No apology or free drinks just got screamed at not to come back ??? Discusted with their customer service. What happened to the customer is always right ?? I'll never return while they are in the pub. Gonna contact elgoods brewery too. .....

Efficient and pleasant service on a Thursday early evening. Warm welcome . I had gammon steak which was fine but chips a little overcooked.Good helpings.The desserts looked extremely good value at £3.50 but our main courses had been too plentiful. Just off the A47 dual carriageway road near Kings Lynn. There were a wide variety of age ranges dining when we were there. Seems a suitable menu for all.

On a walk we dropped in here for a drink and lunch. was amazed with the beautiful gardens and their was a childrens play area and also welcomed the dog. The lunch was huge but only meant to be a light lunch so good knows how big main meals are, it was fantastic value for money and everything was Delicious. The owners were very nice to the children too. great afternoon thanks xx

I first unsure about booking to stay here as it's a pub and most pubs I've stayed in have been terrible, but me and my fiancé stayed here as we needed to find somewhere last minute and this was the only available place near us. As we arrived we noticed the car park was full, we only just managed to get parked, so in my eyes that was a good sign, it was popular. We went into the pub and we could barely move, it was jam packed. The bar staff behind the bar greeted us and asked where we came from and why we were in the area etc, all lovely people. However I felt a bit like a gooseberry because all eyes were on us, everybody drinking and eating were watching us and I didn't like that feeling at all. A woman then appeared to greet us, she showed us upstairs to our room. It's quite randomly laid out, as we have to pass the chefs kitchen to get to our room but never the less, we followed her and she gave us the option of two rooms. We was going to go for room 2, however the bed seemed comfy, and the room quite small, so we decided to stay in room 1. It was a basic room, neutral walls, bedding, decor etc, but it did the job. It had a wardrobe, double bed, chester draw, lamp, TV, chair. Plus tea & coffee facilities with biscuits. We had a shower room, with free toiletries. (shampoo & body wash) the toilet was a little unusual, it wasn't a normal toilet, it was a recycling toilet, only loo roll could be flushed. But when you did flush it sounded like a blender, it was so noisy! That was the only bad thing about this room. We had extra blankets and pillows located in the wardrobe in case we needed them, we didn't but they were there in case you did. The bed was so comfy, the pillows not so much, too soft for my liking but that's a personal preference. Once it had died down a little we went down for a few drinks in the beer garden, it was lovely. Pastel colour benches scattered around the garden, with a purple phone box and a lovely little floral area, plus a play area for kids. Ashtray's on tables for smokers, and big benches for larger groups of people. We had a meal at the restaurant with family members, who brought their dog along, we were seated a certain 'dog friendly' table, which was in the way a bit but it's nice of them to allow dogs. The food isn't what you get from your average pub, it's beyond that. It looks like something you'd get from a 5* restaurant. I ordered the belly pork, with garlic potatoes and veg. My other half ordered the rib and chicken combo, there was so much food. Absolutely lovely and reasonable prices. The next morning we came down for breakfast, we was showed to our table. Lovely little layout with a range of cereal and jams. We were asked what hot drink we'd like, and what kind of bread we'd like for toast. We opted for tea and brown bread, honestly the bread must be home made. I've tasted nothing like it before, it was delicious! So fresh, and tasty! We both had an English breakfast with local sausages, all of the food was piping hot, well cooked, and not a single thing to fault. The best breakfast I've EVER had, I'm missing them already. I'd definitely recommend this place to anyone, and if I'm ever in the area I'd be staying here again.

stoped here with my partner for a quick meal. food was very nice and would definitely recommend a visit .. we will definitely go back .we went on Saturday walked in without booking and got a table straight away... friendly Staff and bear was cold too its sady passed bye to many people due to the a47 bypass so people don't really see It ...

Visited on a Saturday night without booking. Very helpful and found us a table straight away. Good choice of food on the menu. Extremely helpful waitress. Home cooked food and dessert at a reasonable price. Will definitely be back.

Lovely visit to the Coach and Horses, we were guests for the night and the staff could not have been more accommodating. Nice to find a dog friendly hotel with lovely food on offer too. The staff were so polite and attentive and made us feel so very welcome from the start. Food was outstanding and chef very accommodating. All in all a good all rounder!

I am sorry to say since the last people have left it has gone down hill been in there a few times since as local. The beer seems not to be kept as well as in the past. When we have eaten the food is very basic I had a steak last time over cooked not medium with chips over cooked and a few peas no mushrooms half tomato or a few extras to. Make the plate look good. The other half had chicken that dry took it home for the dog.

I visited the Coach and Horses with my husband, we ordered a Bitburger each, being a fan of German beer it was fantastic to see it on tap! We ordered food from the very friendly landlady, my pate was coarse which makes a nice change, served with a very fresh side salad. Our food came quickly but not in such a way we felt rushed, our main course was generously portioned and tasty, excellent value for money! As we were staying nearby we had walked to the pub, by the time we had finished our evening it was dark and the walk a little too far. We asked if the landlady could call us a taxi, as she could only find numbers from the nearby town the landlord insisted he would take us as ordering a taxi from so far away to go a short distance would be very expensive. We have never been shown such kindness from strangers before! It demonstrates just how lovely the staff here are! On a side note the pub was clean, and the toilets particularly immaculate on our visit. I will often judge a place on the cleanliness of its toilets, the Coach and Horses has most definitely passed!

Popped in to Coach and Horses to have Sunday Lunch plus 1 scampi meal, food was great plenty on the plate, hot and very tasty, landlord and lady were welcoming even held our granddaughter so we could eat our food when it arrived, cosy atmosphere with oldy worldly charm, no rush to get us out we felt welcome and would recommed and definitely eat/drink there again

Food is plentiful, good value and delicious. Lovely atmosphere and staff.I also wanted to say that now the new owners have taken over it is nice to have pleasant people take you order rather than someone who acts as if you are being a pain and annoyance when ordering something from the memory or asking for a tweak. We stopped going.Now the new people have taken over, with new staff, it is a pleasant place and we have dined twice. And about to book a third time for April 17th.Top rating.

Good food,good service and value for money. A friendly atmosphere and will definitely go back again.

We were travelling to Hunstanton & saw the sign at the end of the dual carriageway on the A47 Wisbech to Kings Lynn road for this pub/restaurant & decided to give it a try.The landlord & wife were very welcoming & the pub was busy but not crowded. The food was very good value & portions were larger than expected. The salad was fresh which was a suprising change from many pub meals we've had!We will definitely be visiting again & can recommend this pub for value & warmth of welcome.

We often go here and they make the best rump steak that I have had. As for the Vicar's steak if you go!

My self and 14 others went to the coach for a 40th Birthday Party on Saturday 9th August 2014.The staff was friendly, polite and also had a great sense of humour also they made us very welcome for the time we spent there.The food was amazing with very big portionsand the pubs went straight to our hips :)Booked again the following wk for Sunday Lunch. Same again food great a choice of meats. We book most weeks now on a regular basis.

Having been to The Coach & Horses several times all I can say the vegetables are fresh and the meat is delicious, and on a hot day all you want for desserts is a lovely icecream and a cold refreshing Pint of Bitburger. This traditional Country pub is traditional we were told the building was over 400 years old and the character of the pub is true to it era. We will be going back no hesitation absolutely brilliant dont change it.

Had a lot better food for the price. In my opinion it seems when you've eaten they are pleased when you leave.

Went here with a party of eight plus two children for a 60th birthday lunch, seven of us were looking forward to having turkey off the menu. We sat down with drinks we had ordered directly at the bar. Sat down, went to order turkey off the menu and were then informed they had run out! Had we known before ordering drinks and getting sat down we would probably have left there and then to go elsewhere. None the less we stuck with it and ordered the beef, which I guess wasn't to bad. To top it up one of the party had ordered a dessert with never turned up. Pointed this out to the person serving us, and guess what she said, she said she would knock off the bill. Most generous of her!, We have been regulars here, but its unlikely we will go again.

Very poor staff don't know how to speak to customers and don't treat them with value point 1, point 2 food was rubbish all frozen food nothing homemade deserts were the same and the ice cream was served in a plastic cup not presented in a glass dish point 3 no aircon in bar area and it wasa very hot day. door just left open to let in a hot draft to make it even worse totally unhappy with this place never going back hope it changes hands soon as has potential

Pete and Mandy run a wonderful pub - and we regularly go and dine there. Can recommend it highly. Ask them about the Vicar's steak!!

We had a meal on a sat lunchtime and was greeted by a very friendly landlord and food was quickly brought out and was nice and hot! Couldn't really fault anything! WillBe going back again!;-)

Our first visit to the Coach and Horses at Tilney St Lawrence was at lunch time on Easter Monday. It is an attractive, traditional pub selling real ale and with a good local reputation for food. The staff are friendly and helpful. The food is reasonably priced, tastes good and is cooked to order. This won't be our last visit.

This a great place for a good old fashioned pub meal. Really wide choice of food, and good service - will go again

The Coach and Horses Inn have new owners and it's worth a visit.The menu is extensive and local produce used if and when possible with daily specials on the board.Although a little on the pricey side for pub food, the food was excellent on our vist and I was torn between the lamb shank and the rump steak.In the end the steak won but the chips that came with it were a little disappointing with hardly any taste at all - unlike the McCains which are now widely used at Spoons.Yes, we will visit again to try some different on the menu.
