About The Dabbling Duck
The Dabbling Duck pub was opened in 2006 as the result of a tireless community action group and a far-sighted local authority's 6 year campaign to prevent the beautiful old building (previously the Rose and Crown pub) from being converted into housing.
The Dabbling Duck now plays a vital part in the heart of the local community and is a focal point for the village. The owners regularly eat and drink at the pub with their friends and colleagues.
Afternoon Tea is served daily 15.00 - 17.00

What an amazing pub. Travelled over from Holme Next The Sea for our meal and well worth the journey. Fab decor and village position. Great menu and welcoming service. Outside is a pizza oven (weekends) and play area for kids. What a great all round venue.
Steak was really chalky and a bit over done, nice place otherwise!
Dined as a couple when we stayed one night B&B. First time we have visited. Enjoyed the lively friendly atmosphere and particularly the fact that it was still a "pub" with a good community feel and had not become simply a restaurant with a bar like so many others. Food was excellent and the service was efficient, relaxed and personal by what appeared to be predominantly young and personable staff. And the good beer was still at sensible pub prices!
Love to go there for dinner. Always good.
Another excellent meal
We felt that the menu was very limited and were particularly disappointed with the scallops, whose flavour was completely masked by the accompanying cabbage. Service was very unprofessional; no offer of further drinks with the meal; no sweet menus offered until reminded; slow service. (Service does not deserve any stars.) Overall - could do a lot better.
Wonderful meal. Lovely, inventive food in great surroundings with good service throughout. Recommended!
We go to the Dabbling Duck all year round but it seems in the busy summer months, the staff struggle with the orders. We had to wait 45 minutes just for the starter. The food is usually good and they often have something different on the menu. On our recent visit we tried Jack Fruit which was tasty though not sure about it as a 'burger'. Dinner is always good value. We enjoyed our evening and had the service been a bit quicker we would have tried the delicious sounding desserts.
Nice location, friendly staff, lunch menu a little bit limited but good food
just a great place to have night out with good food & atmosphere
Great service and ambience were let down by average food.
Superb food in a stunning pub
Great veggie options, lovely food, good wine, spot on service brilliant establishment! Thankyou for making our 24th wedding anniversary memorable
First time here after a few people recommended. Everything was very good, quality of the food was excellent. I felt the scallop starter was a little bit over-priced but was well cooked and presented. My only slight niggle, and I'm not sure there is much can be done about it - but our party was hounded by loads of flies (inside) while eating which was a bit off putting. Not sure much could have been done to prevent that as it was a hot day so all the windows were open. I'll be coming back to try dinner service out for sure.
Fabulous food, as always. Got the impression the bar staff were a bit hassled by mid-afternoon, but to be fair it was an absurdly hot day! Shall continue to recommend you to everyone.
it was our first visit but service was very hit and miss, we had to ask for drinks several times but they kept getting forgotten, food was ok, we’d go back to give it another try.
Lovely place to eat. Or just having a drink.
Great pub, superb service. Only "knock" was a couple of things. My wife had the feta and aubergine salad that was a bit overwhelming in terms of the amount of dressing. Next time we'll ask for it on the side. Also, the kid's chicken fingers had a bit of spice and bbq flavour to them - great for older kids, but our 4 year old only eats plain. (Th bbq/spice was not mentioned on the menu). But - kudos to the staff - they replaced the chicken with a piece of fish and didn't charge us for it. So top marks for saving the day. We'll be back for sure - very cool place, wish it was our local! :)
All good!!
Great night as usual, good food at reasonable price in comfortable surroundings
Simply fab!
We were on a girls weekend away and found the dabbling duck on the internet. You never really know how places are until you arrive but we were absolutely delighted. On our next visit to Norfolk we will be sure to visit again
Great pub which had been recommended. We weren't disappointed, the roasts were just perfect and our dog loved the doggie menu. Friendly service. Thank you!
Interesting and original menu. Enjoyed all the courses especially the pudding, which is unusual in most restaurants where it is often an afterthought.
