The Mariner Pub and Bar Review

Lovely food and great outdoor area overlooking the sea

Good food and excellent value for money. Tables and chairs clean but have that overused sticky feel to some of them.

We had a lovely meal for 7 not one complaint from a fussy family. Very friendly, greated by a lovely lady who gave us a card with 50% discount if we came again. See you tomorrow night Food all came out at once (no one waited ) nicely presented even Scrabble the family dog was a good boy, sat waiting for someone to sneak him a little something but our plates were clean. Recommend for sure. Lovely settings .

Food here is fantastic, chips and fish are nice and crispy. You can sit outside, which offers a lovely view of the beach as you watch the sun set

Good choice of beer with simple pub food menu. Location is great, with a large lawn leading down to sand dunes.

Good value for a sea-side restaurant. Particularly if you have discount vouchers

Great little pub that welcomes dogs inside and out. Walked along beach from Hunstanton and found this gem of a pub where the food was outstanding and very reasonably priced. Will definitely return.

Very busy in summer, outside seating. Good food, very close to beach.

Great oldschool pub with good ales! Fantastic fire place!

Outside tables are spread over the lovely terrace and garden at the back with good sea views. We had lunchtime sandwiches which came with a small salad and crisps. Tasty. Meal portions looked enormous! Reasonable prices.

Excellent food, great beer, friendly staff, nice atmosphere.

Christmas menu. Good value and excellent meal. Would happily go again

All round pleasant experience. Food was tasty and served nice and hot. The service was quick.

We went hoping for sunday roast but not available at present! But all managed to choose something delicious off menu Service was very good in these difficult times

Found this place a long time ago it does good food and it is close to a beach and it allows dogs in to certain areas. Food is excellent and always served with a smile.

I did think their Fish Pie thingy would have had more fish in it. Otherwise adequate. Good for beer, I gather!

Service not good regarding time waited for a drink and the amount of staff, food very expensive considering it was corporate food, ie nothing special...Wetherspoons food ...but triple price, however lovely setting outside due to views and beach , wouldn't go back take a picnic xx

Beautiful place with decent food and amazing sea views

good pub in a beautiful location that i have been to many many times, but spoilt on this occasion by having to queue for over 30 mins to get a drink with only 9 people in front of me.....ridiculous!!

A real find, wanted to find a pub on the seafront to enjoy sunset with a drink and meal. Hunstanton itself was way too busy, but found this place by chance. Staff friendly, good food, good choice of drinks. Thinking of coming back here next time we're in the area, highly recommended

Awesome location, pub food, great for the kids and right next to the beach.
Only a 15 minute drive from our camp.

Delicious meal, great service and a beautiful view! Highly recommend!

Not bad considering it was packed. Celebrating G's birthday

Nice place with lovely views over the sea, a bit more expensive than most, but that is the great location.

Very relaxing atmosphere, good food, good staff. Toilets could have been cleaner.

We were served very nice food by friendly efficient waiters, nice lagers in the restaurant. The downside is limited access for the disabled if any, being an old building there's limited scope for alterations

Lovely pub, foods a little expensive. Goes to show location is everything.

Attentive staff. Food was only like warm with no flavour.

Fantastic food and service, we were in the Sunset lounge and how appropriately named was that, we watched the sun go down over the sea whilst I tucked into one of the best burgers i've ever seen! My wifes pie was nothing shy of perfection, so impressed! The selection was fantastic, the local ice cream was epic. Will definitely come back here again next time we're in the area.

Just wasn't worth the money for for the quality of the food. Tasteless. Burnt burger. The other dinner was the same bland. Seemed like staff have given up a couldn't care less attitude. Nearly give up waiting to order as no one came up to our table, I wish we had.

We booked a meal in the Sunset Room. The view is nice, particularly at sunset, although if you're in the wrong place you can get blinded from the glare, with little or no shade. The menu was fairly limited, with little to excite, but it was ok. The service was reasonable but more could have been done to make diners aware of non-availability. I'd like to know if something is not available when requesting (or before preferably) not have the server return to inform me. Pricing was reasonable, although we were taking advantage of an offer.

family pub with burgers fish chips etc. Great position right by the sea.

Nice place to eat lovely views. They do need more staff.

Lovely setting. It's nice and people are too but overpriced for what it is - suppose it is part for the course of being touristy

Absolutely rubbish.
Service rubbish
Guinness rubbish...should teach your staff how to actually pull a pint first.

Good pub fare, even better if you have a discount voucher.

Loved it . lovely Sunday lunch
Excellent attentive waiter

As always the meal and service was brilliant. This and the Farmers Arms is two of our regular Friday lunch meets.

They are coping well with the restrictions imposed due to Covid.

Really nice pub, the good is very good, however it is on the pricier side, which is the only problem for me. But the highlights are definitely the beer garden, with a view of the sea and the sunset, it is a beautiful place to enjoy a cold beer

Lovely place, dogs are welcome, could do with umbrellas on the outside seating areas

Nice food & a cold water dispenser, which is free. The location is lovely and the ambiance good. I would give 5 stars, but there were empty sachets stuffed through the radiator grates. This was a little off putting.

Excellent food. Only problem I have is deciding on one thing from the menu!

Good beer guide find during a recent trip to North Norfolk. The beer was well kept and the views were good.

Brill meal, family gathering . Orders various from chicken strip's and salad to fish and chips and steak and mushroom pudding + 3 children's meals.well worth the money and service excellent.

Lovely old pub. Great food and choice of drinks. Lovely tiered outside patio area and large grassed area leading to tbe beach. Lovely views. Plenty of parking to rear and a few on the roadside out front. Small carpark over the road if also using the small gift shop there.

Good for family meals and lovely sunsets to be enjoyed from decking area, dog friendly too

Food ok, staff friendly, it is what it is. Nice views at sunset.

Good food, reasonable prices.
Plenty of space both inside and outside.

Super pub really good food and the dining room has superb views

I visited the ancient mariner inn tonight with my husband and grandchildren all though the food was ok just I had the curry which came with rock hard nann breads that I couldn't eat and my husband nearly chocked on a chicken bone from a breast off chicken covered in cheese and bacon and I did tell the girl on our way out but as usual customer service thinks it's ok to say sorry not what I'd expected from a best Weston
