Loved this place both for it's character, well described below and for the ales we tried. Will be popular with the local community just off the main shopping area. I spent a bit of time exploring the many smaller rooms that add to it's interest both up and downstairs, unusual for a Wetherspoon outlet. Service good as were the beers we had, Oldershaw Best Bitter and Adnams Irish Red.

The Lattice House is possibly as idyllic as things get for a Wetherspoons pub. Unlike the usual plastic ‘Spoons by numbers, the Lattice House is a wonderful intimate 15th century building complete with many original internal and external features. It was first used as a pub in 1714 (known as Ye Olde Lattice Inn) but closed in 1924. Spoons have done an excellent job in retaining the character of the building and there are plenty of interesting photos and snippets on the walls regarding the building's history. The pub doesn't initially appear to be very big but it does have several small rooms and hidey holes although it does get a bit cramped and bottlenecked in places. There is a second bar upstairs that is also worth exploring with equally intimate seating and a small balcony overlooking the main bar under the wonderful vaulted roof. Unusually there is a full set of Ales in the upstairs bar as there is downstairs so Ale fans don't need to keep going up and down with pints in your hand like in most other split level pubs. That said, just 2 guest beers were available on our visit (Oldershaw Best and Wolf “Granny Wouldn't Like It” and both ran out during the course of the evening but just as I was resigning myself to a pint of Abbot they put on a new barrel of Nethergate Drunken Monkey. The general atmosphere was far more welcoming than its sister pub the Globe and, depsite being a Saturday night, the place was comfortably busy without being overwhelming although service was a bit slow at times. There is also a small beer garden at the rear which I didn't actually notice until we left. There isn't much to recommend in Kings Lynn on the pub front but the Lattice House is certainly worthy of attention, even if you are not a Wetherspoons fan

Alwayd has a very good selection of real ales. Usually quite busy.

Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about The Lattice House (JD Wetherspoon)
Atypically small 'spoons - quite a characterful building, with a nice little walled garden, but the Freeminer Speculation Ale was on the turn. Also about 60p per pint more expensive that the nearby Lloyds No.1/Wetherspoon Lodge (the Globe Hotel) for no obvious reason.
