Blue Scrumpy left this review about Warwick Arms

Another pub in a Norwich residential area, this one fits into a wedge-shaped plot between two streets. It seems to be quite a popular pub amongst local students and has a slightly trendy edge to it. To the front left is an L-shaped bar with mood lighting and a couple of large ceiling fans with leaf-shaped blades. A few TVs were showing football on mute with music playing instead.

A smaller room to the rear right had exposed brickwork, a TV and a dartboard, There appeared to be quite a few in there watching the football. So, perhaps TVs had the sound on in there.

The bar has 5 handpulls. These were dispensing Lacon's Encore & Ember, Wolf The Pack & Buxton Hatchet, with the fifth stick unclipped. Craft beers were Cloudwater Happy, Weekend Project Island Hopper, SALT Alpacalypse & Verdant Light Bulb. Wines & cocktails were also served. Food is available with menus on each table showing that pizza, wings and olives could be ordered.

This pub now features in the Good Beer Guide. My half of Ember was nice enough, but it's a bit of a walk out of the centre to get here. So, I doubt I will become a frequent visitor.

Fighting my way through the biggest crowd of bar blockers I’ve seen outside London, I think the choice was, a blank pull, Redemption Trinity, Adnams Ghost Ship, Sharps Solar Way and a best bitter from someone called Three Acre. F I could make out five hand pumps and a trio of low T-bars. I plumped for a half of the Redemption but got served a pint, it was a decent drink but not as ordered and at London pricing £5.20 for a 3% abv beer, I didn’t bother complaining as it was a very busy pub. A big stripped out place with white walls, laminate floors and some grey tongue and groove. It calls the toilets ‘washrooms’, ugh. I found the clientele especially objectionable, an entitled lot, and the staff obviously deaf. For me a dreadful experience.

Real Ale Ray left this review about The Mad Moose

This large gastropub holds a prominent position and can be easily seen from the Unthank Road. The pub consists of a L shaped lounge and bar. There was also a snug with TV and restaurant upstairs. On our midweek eve visit, there were quite a few people dining in the lounge area. Three ales on handpump Abbott, Adnams and Hobgoblin. There was plenty of room for both drinkers and diners.
