Gatehouse, Norwich

Old traditional pub as they use to be as they say. The main bar has nice ales, Grain Oak (at 2.40 a pint!!!), Greene King IPA, Greene King Abbot, Woodforde's Wherry, and Samuel Smith's Old Brewery Bitter, this is a Yorkshire Bitter and very popular and established in 1758 (2.20 a pint!) All these are the cheapest I have seen in Norwich. They also have different varieties of beer's, draught as well has bottled. Also this pub has an occasional guest ale as well. Nice oak bar!

The interior is very comfortable, nice carpet and comfortable seating, nice open coal fire, seating out side and a very large garden backing onto the river Wensum.

This pub also has music Folk Music on a Wednesday and Thursday, Celtic Folk on a Sunday. On a Saturday they have 1950s onwards music. Great place for any every one and cheap prices so I recommend students go to this bar they would be VERY welcome. The owner/barman is a jolly chap, and mentions "wonderful" when serving his local ales and beers.

The Gate House also has a darts team on a Monday, pool teams on Thursday, and a Crib team. Plenty of car parking space so no need to worry about that. Open from 12 pm onwards. Wonderful atmosphere go and give it a try, it's one of the best places in the City!!
