Don’t forget that tonight (4th December) we are hosting the East Norfolk CAMRA Open Branch Meeting. It starts at 7pm. They are a friendly bunch, and obviously like their beer and real cider. If you are a member that hasn’t been to a branch meeting recently (or ever), then why not take this opportunity to come along and see what’s going on. If you are interested in joining CAMRA, then they would like to see you too!
See you later. #RealAleMagic #CAMRA #CAMRAEastNorfolk

Our award-winning Real Ale, Real Cider and Belgian Beer pub, The Blackfriars Tavern in Great Yarmouth, is thrilled to announce the addition of a bar billiard table.
The bar billiards game is a traditional and fun way to spend time with friends over a few drinks. It is a game that has been enjoyed for decades and now it is available to our customers.
Our bar billiard table is crafted with the highest quality materials and designed to enhance your gaming experience. It features a beautiful and sturdy frame, and a smooth playing surface which was recovered yesterday.
We believe that the addition of our bar billiard table will create a unique and exciting experience for our customers. It is perfect for those who enjoy a relaxed and social atmosphere while having a few drinks.
So come down to the Blackfrairs Tavern in Great Yarmouth and try out our bar billiard table which is on freeplay this weekend. We can’t wait to see you there!

As a pub in Great Yarmouth, we are incredibly proud to have been named runner up in two prestigious awards from East Norfolk CAMRA: Pub of the Year and also Cider Pub of the Year.

While we offer our congratulations to the two different establishments which won each respective category, we believe that our status as the runner up in both categories speaks volumes about the quality of the service, atmosphere, and drinks selection that we offer.
As a pub, we take great pride in our ability to cater to a wide range of customers. Whether you’re a fan of traditional ales or ciders, or you’re looking for more modern and adventurous interpretations, if you are looking for choices like Belgian beers, cocktails, teas, coffee or regular lagers, we have something to offer you. We also pride ourselves on creating a welcoming and friendly atmosphere, where everyone can feel comfortable and at home.
We believe that our success in both categories is a testament to our commitment to excellence across the board. We have worked hard to create a pub experience that is truly unique, and we are delighted that our efforts have been recognized by these prestigious awards. We may not be the absolute best in either category, but when you take them together, we believe that we offer something truly special.
So if you’re looking for a pub in Great Yarmouth that offers a little bit of everything – great drinks, a friendly atmosphere, and a commitment to excellence – look no further than Blackfriars Tavern.
