Theatre Tavern in Great Yarmouth

Old review I know but: How could someone not vote 5 stars for the only pub doing karaoke during the queens funeral 😂 it may have flaws due to being the cheapest pub but I respect it alot Most lively pub I've ever been to

The manager of it bullied me for 7 years when lived at stepshort in belton with mum n dad .she is vile horrible girl that holly.she doesn't deserve a nice life.i have aspergers and she did what she did that's how nasty she is

Very interesting experience - from the outside it seemed as though it was a “vibe”, oh how different when we went in! The clientele was questionable, almost quite “territorial” and annoyed that we were there, few people were friendlier however still seemed to enjoy taking the piss, we managed to keep our mouths shut. Drugs are clearly a fun fav here! Drinks are cheap, which is a bonus I guess!

Staff were great and decent drinks variety. Main let down was the type of customers drawn in, both times visited there were people clearly taking drugs in the bathroom.

Just loud and horrible. Bit pricey

A real spit and sawdust pub. Just ok.

Cracking proper pub! Friendly and welcoming. Even with a power cut! Lol.

Great old school boozer, cheap beers and spirits and rammed full of amusing and interesting characters. The excellent juke box is constantly in demand and never stops playing great music, we heard a good mix of ska, indie, punk and lots of rock. There's a pool table with plenty of willing players and a good outside smoking area. The bar staff are spot on and quickly memorised our round of seven drinks, much better than we did in fact. If you're in Great Yarmouth for any reason you'd be a fool not to have a couple in here. We'll definitely be back next year.

Reviewing on behalf of a friend. Apparently they're OK with their patrons harassing others as long as they're spending money. My friend spoke to a barman about being aggressively harassed by a female patron (swearing at him and being physical), the barman basically told him he didn't care because she was spending more money than my friend was (she was wankered, he was on soft drinks). My friend also has special needs so this was a particularly harrowing experience for him. They need to do better.

Great location, great atmosphere well worth a visit

Friendly cheep and very cheerful love this place

Best but in yarmouth locals speek to holiday makers and made very welcome landlady very nice indead

Called in while walking past and hearing the quality of the Karaoke singers, this was at 2pm. I left 8hrs later feeling that I had found a little gem. Everybody was very welcoming, the beer was good and reasonably priced. I had a lovely time.

Busy place and this was mid week. Friendly staff and customers alike. A very lively bar

Proper drinkers pub, prices are good. There was a karaoke on which was too loud which made many people leave.

Proper Yarmouth pub with a great atmosphere and welcome.

Just wanted to say a massive thank you to the theatre tavern made to feel really welcome by Hollie and Monika two brilliant young ladies who put up with and looked after us on Friday and Saturday night many thanks Paul Dan John and red Richard xx

Popped in for a few after beach and shopping and what a bonus to our holiday we did, great fun welcoming local crowd, great bar staff and some of the finest singers at the karaoke we've heard, came out of there much later and merrier thanks to the generosity of Alison and a few others willing to share a few shots to whet the whistle, even had a go singing ourselves, thanks to everyone for a great time and definitely be back soon for more, cheers all

Rich the singer was best I ever see here I hope to see him in June I've told my friends about him. Also bar staff friendly.

Best pub in Yarnouth, music cheap drinks friendly staff with banter.

Visited the area due to a relative passing away and thought a small group of our family would visit a bar the night before, the moment we arrived we were told no more orders and were turned away, despite still seeing people being served including someone who was already there who we knew, they said it can be very clicky. Disgusting attitude to visitors

Brilliant and very good atmosphere

Good old fashion pub no food but very friendly and you can't go wrong at £2.20 for a pint.

Awesome if ya free minded! My favourite pit stop xx

A lively but very friendly place. Drinks, pool, singing and great service.

Excellent pub made good friends in there

Pop in for a quick drink with my wife. We're made to feel so welcome we stayed all afternoon. The drinks are not expensive. My wife loved the flavoured gins. The staff and customers we met were all amazing friendly.

Only a quick beer but extremely friendly, cheap and good owners, trust me, try it

Came across this place on a very hot day after a walk around Yarmouth and the market area. This place is fantastic the local people that use this place are a great gang of people, we were made welcome and the best thing about the tavern is the drinks are so cheap. If you're by the outdoor market area find the Theatre Tavern you won't be disappointed.

Popped in for one stayed all night. Best Pub in Great Yarmouth.

Totally mad customers. A great little pub full of friendly people. Lovely staff and great prices. Sometimes have good entertainment.

SARAH & GARY ARE GREAT PEOPLE, IT'S THEIR FIRST TIME EVER AS LANDORDS. SO FAR I THINK THEY ARE DOING A GREAT JOB. WHY DONT YOU GIVE THESES PEOPLE A CHANCE AND LET THEM GET ON WITH THEIR JOB. AS FOR THE BAIRMAID HOLLY HOLLY SHE IS DOING A REALLY GREAT JOB & EVERYONE LOVES HER , SHE'S QUICK AT HER JOB. BEST OF LUCK TO YOU ALL, KEEP YOUR CHIN UP. SMUDGER (S)

Great looking Local Pub , Very good prices .Pity they don't like Strangers especially a Senior Lady just wanting a couple of drinks in what I thought would be A Good Old Fashioned Pub . Disappointed.

Brilliant pub great people cheap booze and Holly was lovely

Very basic pub, but friendly and at £2 a pint, you can't go wrong.

Great people all mad but still, great company & lovely bar staff. Lot of the beer/ larger is now £2.00 a pint all day everyday. A pub that you just go with the flow, brill.

It's a must...it's what a real pub is..go there...

Any pub that opens at 9.00 am is a great pub locals make you feel welcome especially osso the bear

Great little pub with really friendly staff and customers. Great booze cheap.

Best little pub in Yarmouth great staff

Waiting 10 mins didn't get served last time go there that it ends off Pubs don't bother me

Everyone was really friendly. It is a small and busy place.

Love this pub one of the best in yarmouth

Great place lovely staff good drinks and entertainment

Bar lady was lovely. But paul the owner is a comete tosser ... he has very bad body odur ..and the only pint he can poor is a pint of milk. His languahe is as foul as his looks. And his prefessionalism is non existent. And he has best texting my missus. Which breaks customer trust

Great jukebox, sports on TV and lively atmosphere. Free food put out on selected afternoons.

It's a great cosy place, happy hours 09:00 - 11:00 (apparently) and 14:00 - 18:00 where selected beers are £2.00 a pint. No food here.

Lovely pub and most people are nice. Just don't like it when I get temporarily barred. When staff say you have had enough today come back tomorrow. LOL .x x

Lovely people, great crack, always live horse racing, karaoke, great service,all in all a great bar.
