The Ship Hotel, King's Lynn

The Ship is the only pub in the North Norfolk coastal village of Brancaster. Being in the village itself, it was much quieter than the beach itself, which seemed overwhelmed on a sunny Sunday lunchtime. A few families had managed to find their way into the Ship, but it was by and large quiet. I'm not a fan of having podiums in pubs requesting you to wait to be seated, especially when you arrive and find it empty. However, we were attended to quickly. Whilst we could order at the bar, we were then requested to be seated in advance of the drinks arriving. Real ales are Wherry & Legacy. My Legacy was in a decent condition. There is no real cider. According to WhatPub, Whin Hill Cider is available in bottles. But alas, no longer. Apart from the main room, there is a side room called the Map Room and a large outdoor terraced area to the rear.
