Drinks and food were good. Good selection of breads, but tasted a little stale and dry. Main course was good, portions are huge - perfect for those with a big appetite.

Good food and a friendly atmosphere. A firm favourite if I'm ever in the area.
Shame they've stopped doing there famous ribs, they were by far the best thing on there menu

My partner and I came to the Lifeboat Inn to unwind and spend quality time together. We loved staying there, and so did our dog.
The room was clean and homey, perfect nights sleep. I ordered a creme brulee from room service and ate it in the rolltop bath, I felt like a pampered princess! I can't wait to come back
The whole of Bramerton is just so lovely, we hope to move there one day!

Classy traditional English pub classic, many varied character rooms with easy charm. Bar a tad small and a bit pricey, but it is North Norfolk!

This is a lovely place to visit for a good meal. After or before if you like you can leave car in carpark and have a walk.

Love the old building. Shame the oil lamps have gone. Must be health and safety. Better since Marco White the celebrity chef sold it

Lunch with good friends, good food and lovely staff. Make sure you give any tips as cash, not sure the worthy staff get card tips.
The Lifeboat is one of our favourite places to eat.

This place never fails me, crisp winter lunch time, open fire, fantastic Ale, deep fried whitebait for starter and a bowl of steaming muscles for main course. Service was attentive, polite and efficient. 5 stars from me, 5 stars every time over the last few years. More...

Lovely place. Nice rooms. Limited beer choices if you're a craft beer lover (as I am). Lovely breakfast.

We visit every year as a family tradition after a long walk on the beach and though the sand dunes. Amazing food, great staff. Always have a open wood fire on in the winter. Lovely cosy pub that is dog friendly. More...

Stayed here for my birthday, we booked 9 rooms for friends and family. We absolutely loved it! The staff were so friendly and accommodating in every way. We used the pavilion in the garden on the first night and had a wonderful meal with excellent service. The dogs were made to feel as welcome as the guests. I will always stay here now on my trips to Norfolk it is such a great location and offers a warm welcome with the lovely open fire in the reception. It was perfect and I would highly recommend.

This is my second visit to the Lifeboat. I found it to be a beautiful building, quaint decor, friendly staff and dog friendly.
I have had a an evening meal and the food was excellent with a varied menu. We also spent a rainy afternoon by the fire having a few drinks relaxing with a paper. All in all a very welcoming, high spec yet unpretentious place.
However, the only thing that I found that lets it down is service. During our meal, we had to go and find our server several times for further drinks, the bill and then after about 20 minutes to then pay the bill. When we were there for just a drink we had to go and find bar staff after standing at the bar for over 10 mins without seeing anyone for both rounds. Other patrons were doing the same as the member of staff kept disappearing in the back after serving someone.
