The Dog Inn in North Norfolk - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

We've eaten at the Dog before for lunch which was very nice, So we decided to go again a couple of months later for an evening meal. The food was lovely, two of us had the double stack burger and the other was a battered fish. Part of the order was wrong when it came out and we said it would be ok but the waitress insisted she take it back and get it sorted. My only negative is 'smoking on outside tables', We had decided to sit outside as it was a warm night but we didn't expect people to be smoking on the tables next to us. If we go again we would definitely sit inside.

Me and my parents when’t there for food and drinks, outstanding welcome from Tracey, she even charged up my phone, great welcome and so looking forward to going back there next July for our next boat holiday, great pub, don’t miss, Chris,

We were staying at the nearby caravan and campervan site. We had a few meals and they were excellent. The staff were friendly. Definitely worth trying if you’re on the broads.

Food was nice but expensive. The red head barmaid needs a lesson in customer service. When making a mistake taking my order the eye rolling and shaking of the head wasn’t needed. We won’t be returning.

Lovely pub within walking distance of Ludham Bridge. Good outdoor seating area, with small play area for children. Good range of food and drinks choices. One of our favourites and always visit at least once during our holiday. They don't take bookings, so arrive early!

Beautiful food and good service will definitely be coming back. Love the fish and chips . Be coming in next time to try the roast dinners

Good friendly pub, great for families with dogs, Lovely food and quick service Food was hot, service was good - clean and attentive The young lad and the bar lady both asked how we were and made sure our table was clean

Outstanding food for a lunch time visit, friednly staff, family welcome and if you like garlic bread - its a must, made the correct way ;-) Joking aside, a great visit, we were on the boat around the broads waiting for low tide and we found a great location for food, drink, and friendly welcome. Thank you team

I telephoned the dog pub/Resturant to enquire about a table for four, the gentleman I spoke to said there was a table available but they did not reserve tables, and it was on a first come first serve basis. We stopped what we were doing and went straight there only to find two tables reserved for different people at different times, one of which was for two and a half hours time. Also the resturant was not that busy all the time we were there, it was clearly a ploy to get us into his restaurant The food turned up promptly and was well presented albeit the portions were on the small size especially considering the price. The staff were very friendly, and I would recommend the dog pub to others, I would advise on portion size and cost as well.

Lovely home cooked food , friendly service , massive portions. The fish and chips was amazing.t min walk from boat moorings

Stopped in for lunch when spending a day on the Broads. Really nice pub, friendly staff and most importantly good food. The beef chilli nachos were the star dish - definitely recommended.

We visited during our half term stay at the Caravan and Camping club. My husband has coeliac disease so we are very careful where we eat, the staff knew exactly what we needed and made us feel really at ease eating there. The portions were huge and more than ample for our 2 children. Perfect after a walk into the local village, Would highly recommend!!!

Amazing place, food was so good 10/10 and the lady behind the bar was so friendly and welcoming. Sorry for boring you with spider stories and facts. Thank you for brightening a rainy day. 100% recommend this place.

Amazing food and great service. We went there after mooring for the night and it happened to be Greek night. The food was really well done and we enjoyed the themed evening. Also very dog friendly.

It is a bit of an understatement to call this place dog friendly. Pooches are the focus, humans are tolerated😂 It feels a bit untidy, but we had a very warm welcome from the lovely barmaid who instantly made a fuss of Bella. The food was very good, locally sourced sausage and mash with a delicious onion gravy and plenty of veg. Maybe slightly overpriced at £16.95, but eating out is expensive these days. Dog beds are available inside and out with plenty of water. There is a nice walk available to an old monastery close by, maps are provided in the pub. We would return again, but if you don't like dogs, I wouldn't bother...

Visited before a must visit if you on the broads all you boats you won’t be disappointed Lovely home cooked food tasty delicious good quality ingredients presented beautiful Good prices good choices with plenty of specials too Staff lovely and friendly too all wether you have a drink or food a warm welcome awaits Staff very helpful See you again

Brilliant paella loved it so much I wanted more . Be back next year. Had the ribs and wings the week before while we have been staying locally on holiday and must say it’s the best pub for for around

We are here and stayed on camp site. It was superb, back to basics but really nice. Take ear plugs though as the cockerall next door is an early riser 🙈

Post run visit for lunch. Drove passed one the way out and reviews were good and although we did stop in Wroxham on the way back nothing took our fancy so carried on to Ludham. Wasn’t disappointed. Lovely welcome and picked a seat in the sunshine indoors. Great menu. Food was great and all our special requests were accommodated. Value for money for sure. Great pub and location. Sadly we didn’t have our doodle with us but she would of loved it for sure! I had the prawn Marie-rose baguette and hubby had haddock. We shared halloumi fries. I would of loved to have had the chocolate cheesecake for dessert but sadly no room!!!

This was our third visit this year but we have been coming here for years. It has great welcoming and friendly staff, beautiful seating inside and lots outside. The choice of beers is good and the food delicious. If you have dogs they are well pampered here with their own beds to settle on instead of the stones and their own watering station. Play area which is safe and camping if you need it. Try the nachos starters they are tasty.

We visited the pub on a few occasions and we were impressed with the cask beer selection. However, although the food prices seemed a bit steep we both ordered a meal. I was pretty unimpressed with the condiment sachets on the table, and should have seen this as a warning sign. My burger was something I would have expected at a cheap cafe, really disappointing. Not good enough quality for the price.

Being a chef myself I was disgusted at the price for a part baked baguette, a handful of salted crisps. £8.75 Atleast a side salad, or some thought into either a decent local bakery for the bread. The tuna mayo was just that. Tuna and mayonnaise. Bland. I would personally be embarrassed to serve that.

Processed food - expensive for what it was - unexciting choices - specials of the day far from special (warm smoked mackerel out of a plastic supermarket package)

Very average pub food - similar to a chain pub but at more than double the price (this is not an exaggeration - £13 for nachos!). School hall furniture and waterproof flooring.. Regretfully uninspiring… But they are on it with Gluten Free.

On holiday in Ludham and ate here over three nights. Fabulous food, reasonably priced, and friendly staff. Nice atmosphere. Recommend the smoked mackerel and chicken curry. Look out for 'The Soecials' board.

Good food, top end of price range but high quality. Great desserts, had the chocolate fudge cake which was so tasty..

This was our first visit. We had a lovely Sirloin steak with all the trimmings,cooked very well and we thoroughly enjoyed our meal. Would recommend there is a specials board as well as main menu.

On holiday on Norfolk Broads, lovely Pub, friendly staff, Dogs allowed,seating inside or outside, varied menu, good quality food, drinks varied good prices, only 15 minute walk from the river if your boating which has free 24hr mooring.

Stopped for a drink after a walk and ended up having more drinks and then lunch. Food was really good, I had calves liver and bacon with excellent veg and wife had ham ploughman's. Ham was cut really thick and the lady said when you...

We were staying at the campsite about 300 yds away. Went for a drink and a bite to eat. Fabulous beer garden Staff friendly Good food and lots of choice. And just a short stagger back.

Delicious food, great service, friendly staff. Specials board fab. Just what was needed. Best so far on our trip on the Broads.

Stayed at the caravan site next door ate in the pub 5 nights excellent food staff were lovely and welcoming couldn't fault a thing,will definitely recommend

Totally confusing on entering, 3 people telling us we had the wrong menu, which was given to us by the bar staff. Ordered drinks and paid. Went back to order food.... lamb was good.... Caesar Salad must have been some left-over stalks from a cabbage...

Love this place! First stop every time we are on a boat! Over the last 12 years, this place has gone from strength to strength! Great beers and drink selection! Gluten free menu is excellent! Once again, we will be back next year

Having read the previous review, about rude bar staff i felt the need to write a review of my own. I was in the pub when this incident happened and I can say the bar staff in question was not rude at all. She was...

Absolutely disgusting experience. Got off to a lovely start with a couple of nice ladies serving us. Then we hadn’t seen anyone in the garden for a while and we were ready to order food. We went inside and asked if someone would mind coming...

We stopped for lunch here on route to our accommodation. There was a friendly welcome and the food was of good quality and at a reasonable price. The pub was fairly empty when we visited and perhaps this made it feel rather lacking in atmosphere....

Just popped in here as I had time to kill in the area. I received a very warm greeting and was served immediately. I ordered some food and I had cutlery waiting for me when I got back to my table. The food was delivered...

Very friendly staff. Pub very clean and the roast beef dinner omg.would say probably one of the best I've had. The way the veggies were served was amazingly different. If you've never been would highly recommend

We have eaten here twice this week and food and service was fab, the last night staying in the area we went for food unknowing that they were closing for the season and not serving food, we stayed for a drink and resigned ourselves to...

Had 2 or 3 meals while staying locally. Good access for wheelchair user (although across gravel which wheelchair users hate); Food was good and service was attentive

Visited yesterday in our last night visiting the broads. Lovely people, really welcoming and they love dogs!! Dog beds are available and water Great kids play area . Great food thank you Highly recommend

It was our first night on The Broads and we moored at Ludham Bridge and walked to Dog Inn. It was a wet night, but welcome was warm and food good. Fish and chips available for gluten free (recommended by my wife). The gluten free...

Friendly welcome but that was it! Two out of the three poor quality ‘thin ales’ on. Cheap micro brewery yellow ales which to me all taste the same sold at £4.60. No quality Adnams , not even local Wherry which was sad. The layout of...

Lovely food, staff were so friendly they couldn't do more. Some real ales and really dog friendly. Moored our boat at Ludham bridge, walked the short distance would recommend we had dinner and tea here.

Loved it ! Food excellent all hot and tasty, bar staff superb ! We had our 2 dogs (Bassett and Sheepadoodle ) and they couldn't have tried any harder to make us fell so welcome! Brilliant Evening will ensure NBD show them as a great...

Not a huge choice of food but both times we have visited recently the food has been good. The staff were not particularly welcoming, had to carry own drinks, cutlery outside myself even though they were clearly not at all busy. Perhaps they need to...

We visited here last year when we were on holiday and revisited recently. The lady behind the bar (Tracey) was very pleasant and efficient. We had Cheese Burgers & Chips and Fish & Chips, excellent pub grub, quick service as we were the first in...

A year on since our last visit and The Dog continues to impress. Plenty of tables to sit outside in a nice seating area, and a great climbing frame for younger visitors. Well worth visiting if you drive past or worth making the short walk...

Don’t normally write review but felt like this pub needed one, would 100% recommend to anyone who’s boating on the norfolk broads or even if your near to stop here. Pub was well kept inside and out, staff was faultless and very friendly, speedy service,...

Friendly staff. Good value and the quality of the chops on the ‘specials’ menu was fantastic. Clearly a dog friendly pub - with dogs being given mats to lie on. Shame hooman customer don’t get a cushioned seat too ;)

Called in with my dog for some food, lovely warm welcome from the staff and the food was fantastic! I had the home made curry which came with rice and a naan bread, deliciously tasty with succulent chicken and just the right amount of kick....

When visiting pubs you do not bring in your own drinks and certainly do not walk in the bar with your own drink and order more.

Can’t fault this excellent place to eat, dog friendly, disabled friendly. Staff excellent food and service was great

A 5 minute walk from Ludham Bridge mooring. A pub that does have occasional live music. The food choice, quality and price we all great - and the service spot on!

Not a lot of choices for food, but basic choices! A lot of flavours but no control. Food is ok, but the destination is good! 5 min walk from the moors. Drinks selection ok. Decor could improve!

Great food, freshly cooked. My wife had 3 lamb chops, I had Tomahawk pork chop with apple butter. Superb. Friendly staff. Furnishings a bit basic but don't let that put you off. Outdoor seating too. Children's play area.

Had 3 meals here whilst staying at the nearby campsite (not the field next to the pub). Impressed by portion size (especially the tomahawk steak on the specials), quality of food and speed of service. Standard pub grub in a big room with basic furnishings,...

Fantastic staff. Great beer and spirit selection. Food was good. Ignore the negative reviews for here! We stepped off our boat and made our pilgrimage to this pub. In my opinion, this place gets better year on year. The place has had a refurb making...

For those folk who praise the food here, I'm not sure where you normally eat? We were four blokes, one had ham egg & chips, the other three fish chips & peas. The ham was reconstituted and thin slices, clearly bought in. The battered fish...

My family and our friends make up a group of 7 people, visited for several drinks and then a few bowls of chips and nachos, the food was so delicious and the service from the young lads great. We went to order more nachos and...

Friendly country pub serving Good Food. 10 minutes walk from Moorings at Ludham Bridge. The Dog has a car park and childrens play area in a large safe garden. Outside seating is also available. Highly recommended for lunch or evening meal and it's atmosphere.

This is the second time we've eaten here this week and I have to say it's got to be our favourite place so far for a meal. I couldn't believe the size of the simple cheese salad. Not to mention how beautifully presented it was....

We did only pop in for a drink but the service was friendly, the beer was decent and the place smelt of delightful food. Thanks

We went here for my daughters birthday today to have a meal the service was disgusting the food didn't all come out together , two of the dinners came out but no sign of the other two meals we had to wait 10 mins for...

We ate here twice during a boating holiday. It’s a short walk from the moorings at Ludham Bridge. The menu is very good, and there is an amazing specials board too. The staff are super friendly. Our meals were delicious, the portions are very generous!...

Welcomes dogs and children in equal measure. Food very good and also offer take away - particularly liked the shrimp bombs and the halloumi

Walked from our boat on the broads for midday meal. Decent pub, good beer and food was more than acceptable.

We were staying at the caravan site next door and used the pub three times. Its a nice pub with a good range of draught ales and lagers, landlord very helpful, even let me use his car park out of normal opening hours to use...

Totally oblivious to campsite and camping pitches regulations it's a free for all regarding pitch up tent guide rope under caravans.Dog mess .food waste

Incredibly friendly service and only a few minutes walk away from Ludham Bridge, making it a great place to stop off while cruising along the Broads. Plus they provide bowls and blankets for dogs!

After a long walk from How Hill down to Ludham Bridge we ordered and was served Soup & ciabatta which sas delicious . Lovely friendly customer service when we arrived & taking our order for food and drinks Also a really big thank you again...

Do not come here from one good man to whom ever is reading this, Like the name of the pub the food is also dogwater, there was bones in the scampi, the kids burger was three times the size of the adult burger, the customer...

This is pub grub, well presented, adequate portions, piping hot, tasty and fresh. Service was excellent and all staff were friendly and engaging. Some reviews on here bemuse me because they are the exact opposite of our experience. We enjoyed our fist visit so came...

We stay at the wild camping field that is part of the pub.as you would expect it’s a basic site with Basic facilities just what it says it is. But they do leave the very clean loos open all night. But for the £10 a...

Being the first stop on the broads after leaving Stalham this pub was recommended by the boating company. After quite a trek from the mooring to the pub and to our surprise we arrived at 2 mins after 8pm and they said the kitchen was...

Had nice fish and chips here but the service let it down, queued to order food and drink for over 30mins could of done with another drink when my dinner arrived but would of had to queue for another 30mins to get it so didn't...

Wanted a local campsite to Ludlam and found this Gem, great staff and very polite , explained the camp rules and where to find services , although there was no electric we still had a great weekend break. All campers were helpful and great atmosphere...

Been here a few times over the last few years and can’t really fault the place, especially considering the Covid problems all businesses are having. Good food and beer, friendly staff, what more do you want

Stopped off for lunch , staff very friendly, food very nice , good selection of local ales and all at reasonable prices. Dog friendly 5/5

Very good pub food. Service was great, with a smile too! Nice to sit outside either under cover or in the open. Beer was good too!

This place is a total waste of time, took them 3 attempts to get a order of 4 drinks correct. And that was after waiting 25 minutes after ordering. When drinks arrived the larger was flat. No ice in the vodka after being asked if...

Terrible experience with this pub . Poor service and poor attitude. Disappointed and we are local . After calling ask what time last orders where and was told 20:00 . We arrived at 19:40 and found a table . After waiting a while to be...

Great location, fabulous friendly staff and delicious food. V good vfm esp when you can camp/park up in their field with fresh water and 24hr toilets for £10 a night!!! This place ticks all the boxes.

Okay if you are looking for a “something and chips” meal. Was expecting something better but it was decent enough. They welcome dogs inside which will be great for some but personally not for me.

Our third evening at this pub close to where we are staying for our hols. Not going again. First evening we were told we had to sit outside and yet we saw a couple enter the pub and sit down. Last night was satisfactory although...

Well it was beautiful the food was hot the drinks where cold what more can I say the waitress was amazing and the chef came and checked all was good will see you soon

A lovely pub with a warm welcome. We really enjoyed the pub with a good range of ales. They even supply dog beds and drinks for your dog.

Stayed locally before we realised we could have stayed here in our van. Visited twice as the service was so friendly and the food looked so good. Great location lovely food with friendly helpful staff A real gem to visit stay or pop in on...

Visited after looking online at pubs in the area. The website looked better than the pub itself which was looking a bit tired. Food was OK but nothing special however it is a lovely location near the river and the staff were friendly and welcoming....

Called in to The Dog for a drink last Wednesday afternoon (2nd June), our first visit to a pub since lockdowns began. What a wonderful experience we had here. We decided to have a meal here, the food and service were superb. My wife has specific dietry requirements that they were able to accomodate without any issues. We will be back. Thank you all so much.

moored up at the Bridge and a short stroll to the Dog. wow.. so friendly. doggie bed and fresh water for the dog. Large G&T for mrs B and 2 pints of Local beer for yours truly. chatting with other scousers who had the same...

Once again went to our happy place the dog pub in Ludham its such a lovely friendly place and it makes our holidays one to remember the food was amazing and all the staff are so friendly its like meeting family members if we didn't...

Disappointing. The website looks very inviting, in a modern gastro-pub way. Could not be further from it. Very ordinary. If egg and chips in a tired slightly grubby cafe is your thing you’ll love it. Staying in the area for a week and this place...

Probably unfair to judge too much on the first day back. The pub wasn't taking bookings, so it was a first come first serve basis. We had a short wait for a table, but I believe they were understaffed, which is understandable due to the...

We arrived for Lunch, ordered and waited. And waited. Our drinks arrived. After an hour we enquired where our food had got to, to be told that we hadn't ordered and anyway what we has ordered was sold out. Bizarrely food that arrived at other...

Went for evening meal staff lovely friendly and helpful meal ok nothing to write home about took our westie with us unfortunately he ended up covered in tar which was underneath the chips where we sat he has tar still stuck to his skin and...

We arrived w/c 12th April just after the Covid restrictions had been lifted. They had a new till and all new staff and so the service was slow and our drink order did go missing but we were on holiday, the sun was shining and...

Our 1st night we stopped nearby and came in for dinner which was lovely and very well organised considering its covid still

We strolled over the bridge to find the Dog on the other side. It had ample outdoor tables and was covid friendly. We just stopped for lunch, and our order did go slightly astray, but as soon as we enquired if there was a problem,...
