    We enjoyed the plaice and flat iron steak very much. The portions sizes were generous and food was well cooked and beautifully presented, my steak didn't taste chargrilled though. Service was pretty prompt and some of the staff were cheerful. The Bucks is cosy and comfortable pub with good parking.

    The pub is lovely , old and quaint Food was lovely and hot and all the staff were lovely and friendly . We made the mistake of going at Easter and parking was a nightmare . To be honest I think some cars had parked in the pub car park for free and gone to Blickling hall . But it should be ok any other time

    Lovely food, very friendly staff, nice to have some background music and chatter, fun hearing the kitchen staff singing when the door opened 😄 The brownie was A-M-A-Z-I-N-G
