The best restaurants serving British food in Oulton Broad Waveney East of England

We’ve visited this pub a number of times over a number of years. The scenery is lovely with its view across the broad. However the ambience inside is pretty grim. Very bare bench in style. Having eaten there recently, I’m afraid the food is just as basic. Large portions but large portions of mediocre food. Our latest visit will most likely be our last. My beer and my wife’s cider were barely cold. When I raised this with the bar supervisor, I was told that they keep their cellar at 8C … obviously that is pretty in-cool (literally) the reason for this, she said, was that below that, the pipes freeze over. An interesting take on reality but if so, they need to do some work. It might work for real ale but that would be about it… and they don’t serve any. They don’t make any apology for it either. They did offer a refund but I declined that. That isn’t what I wanted. What wanted was a couple of nice cold drinks. It’s a shame to see such a good view go to waste.

After getting mugged off twice previously, I thought I'd give it one more chance to redeem itself. Well, I wish I hadn't bothered. 2 microwaved saveloys both split, what they call large chips, but I would call medium at best. And the best bit was the large cod which was6"" long and the same width and a quarter of that was batter. £14.70 for that. What a rip off, oh and they only take cash! I guess they don't have to declare it all. I'll never waste my money there again.
