Tombstone Brewery & Saloon Bar has a wild west theme throughout, but it’s not over the top so it doesn’t feel like one is sat in a theme park bar. It’s a small single room brewpub with a strip wood floor at the front upon which sits some seating and a laminate floored rear where a serving counter is found on the rear wall in front of gravity fed barrels along the back bar. I went for a pint of Milestone Brewery’s Comet Golden Ale which I thought had gone, but the very friendly governor and local at the counter said that it was ok, but an acquired taste as it has a honey flavour. I’d previously been drinking mostly lager so I took their word for it, and I didn’t shit the bed that night so it must have been fine, I just didn’t like it, but to be fair the governor did offer to swap it for something else, however my personal tastes shouldn’t be eating into someone’s profits. Whilst nursing my pint I noted some exposed brick and wood panelled walls and a dartboard on the left-hand wall. The television was airing muted BBC News and a radio station with adverts was playing in the background. Some purists won’t like it in here, but I found it to be the most welcoming venue of the day and I’d certainly pop back for a visit when next in the area.

At the Tombstone Saloon, the beer is mostly served on gravity from behind the bar, though some have to be fetched from somewhere beyond the counter. Obviously jacketed casks on a warm afternoon is far from ideal for ale quality and today's beers are fresh, but somewhat insipid.

Signs of refurbishment are all around, with freshly varnished tables and new paint outside. That though is the highlight. A bit of a disappointment and I'd probably walk past on a repeat visit to Great Yarmouth.

Our cunning plan of a quiet Sunday evening pint in the Mariners Arms was thwarted when they had a beat the bands evening on with five local bands and the pub was packed with friends and family of the bands. So we made a tactical retreat after one pint and searched out the Tombstone Brewery Tap room as we had regularly run out of time to do it on previous visits.
Small, western themed one room micro pub set up with bench seating to the front and the serving area set at the back with a counter in front of several barrels in cooling jackets on stillage behind.
Two chalk boards, one on a left-hand pillar detailing the ciders available (presumably in the cellar) and a larger one next to the serving area with the ales on. For my visit there were eight local ales available with four from the Tombstone Brewery, three from Milestone and one from Lodden.. Paddles are available for both the ciders and ales but we went for full measures and between us tried the Tombstone Texas Jack and Hopalong, the Milestone Hammerhead Stout and the Lodden Citra Quad Session IPA and they were all good. Still prefer the nearby Mariners for that true traditional pub experience , but this makes a very good double.
