The Nelson Clenchwarton in King's Lynn and West Norfolk

Just popped in as lived two houses away growing up so I was so happy so see the brilliant transformation. We got a very friendly greeting from Ellie as we walked through the door. Decided to have lunch which was excellent and reasonably priced. Even our dog got a warm welcome and a bowl of water. A lovely atmosphere and we will definitely pop in again when we’re passing through the village.,

Came on the 17th with my son Matthew to try the launch of the new menu. Having eaten here several times under the new name, including Christmas Day, we were not disappointed. The food was delicious and the service as always was excellent. Jess was on that night and spent time chatting with us, but all the staff are warm and welcoming. Looking forward to returning soon. Worth the short drive to get out of Lynn.

Having come away for Xmas with family and this being the pub local to us, I Cannot recommend this place enough. We went there last night with the in laws and their dog (having checked prior) and he was given just as much of a warm welcome as we were! We ordered 6 steaks and there wasn’t a scrap of food left on any of our plates! The staff, the food and the venue were all brilliant, wouldn’t hesitate to return or recommend!

My wife needs persuading to go out! She loved the Lord Nelson, its lovely decor, brilliant disabled toilets, excellent food, good value and warm welcome. We will return soon. I run a small music charity for children and the musicians love it too.

Recently moved to the area and so decided to try out the local. I have to say I was thoroughly impressed. Although it was very quiet (early evening) the staff were really attentive. What’s more they seemed to be happy and cheerful which is sadly lacking in many places these days. It made a pleasant change to be greeted and welcomed as I walked through the door. The girl who did was cheerful and even asked if I would like a table or a seat in the bar. The chap behind the bar kept my drink topped up and also made me feel really welcome. Although I did not eat on this occasion I did see AND smell food that others had ordered and will most definitely be coming back to try!! The bar had a wide selection of spirits and drinks to choose from from what I could see. There must be a lot of local gin drinkers as half the shelf was full of the stuff. Not being much of a spirit drinker myself I had a German sounding beer which I can confidently say hit the spot just right.

Beautiful roast, good service. Will definitely come back for another! We shared a roast beef platter that could easily feed 3 people, great value for money. Nice pub to have on our doorstep.

We called in on Saturday lunchtime for a drink and a light lunch. As usual, Ellie was delightful. There is nothing too much trouble. Such a lovely feel to the place, and delicious food.

We went for Sunday lunch for a belated birthday celebration. The star is the roast lunch, either individual or a shared platter. We had pork and beef, the meat was fantastic and the vegetables were crisp not soggy, the gravy was to die for, as was the Yorkshire pud. As a surprise my husband had ordered a cake, this was a delicious chocolate ganache cake with candles. The service is great, friendly and accommodating, nothing is a problem. Thankyou to Ellie and her staff.

Went in Restaurant Week to give it a try. Staff excellent and friendly. Food good and plenty of it. Place empty (was a Monday lunch and not normally open) so ambience a little lacking. Would recommend.

We live part time in the next village and wanted a Sunday late lunch (very late) in the afternoon. We had visited the Nelson a few times and before under its old name of the Partridge for BOTH lunch and dinner. They took out late booking of 4PM even though they closed at 5PM. We were greeted as soon as we came in the entrance door and shown to a table and asked what we wanted to drink whilst we looked at the menu. I ordered the mushroom soup to start followed by roast pork and Mrs Astute ordered a prawn cocktail followed by the roast chicken. We both enjoyed 2 first class meals and an excellent friendly service. The overall bill was very reasonable. We will continue to return and more than happy to recommend this pub/restaurant.

We went with friends to try the Sunday Roast . The wife had Pork and I had Beef . Very warm welcome and good service . However both our Dinners was Luke warm and the gravy very thin and runny no taste ! Quite disappointing. Very limited deserts choice of Crem Brûlée or Eat & Mess . My friend and I had Eat & Mess at £7.50 tasty but disappointed very small portion certainly not worth £7.50 ! On a good point had a pint of Ghost Ship which was nice . Overall 5 / 10 expected better .

We booked in for an evening meal during Norfolk Restaurant Week having never been to The Nelson before. We were not disappointed at all. Our waitress, was very attentive and we were sat at our table straight away with drinks delivered quickly. For starters we had the halloumi and the pork bon bons, both dishes were delicious and presented beautifully. Our mains of beef short rib and the steak arrived quickly, and we're equally delicious. The short rib was so tender and fell off the bone, the steak was like butter and melted in my mouth! Dessert for my husband was creme brulee and he assured me it was the best he had ever had (and he's had a lot!). every dish was presented beautifully and cooked perfectly. The waitress was so lovely, and appeared genuinely happy that we had enjoyed our meal. We would highly recommend The Nelson to anyone who enjoys an excellent meal in a nice village pub.

Hadn't booked, but fitted us in. Promptly served a pleasant lunch at a fair price. Very nice people, well attentive and friendly. Would go again no question.We

Had a 18th birthday family meal this evening 30th Oct. Group of 17 people and they coped really well the food was lush and we all had a fantastic time . Deffo recommend and will return . Staff really nice and polite

Three of us had a delightful lunch on the first day of Norfolk Restaurant Week. We could not have chosen better for our first meal at The Nelson. Sea bream and two curries were so tasty and beautifully presented. We moved on to salted chocolate slice and two creme brûlée. All three were exceptional. We congratulate the chef on excellent dishes and commend the service which was friendly and helpful.

Relaxing environment, had afternoon tea with my mum & sister. I believed we were served by Charlotte who was very sweet, so polite & was checking in on us to make sure we got everything we needed. The food was just beautiful & every filling...

Welcoming atmosphere, friendly, helpful staff, delicious food, fab cocktails, great for food or just a drink. As part of a party of 6, we all agreed it is the perfect village pub, we can’t wait for our next visit.
