Sitting proudly on East Street is The Lord Nelson pub, or The Nellie to friends.

Somewhat of a local institution, you can be assured of a warm welcome, award-winning Adnams’ beers, wines and spirits, and some good local storytelling too. Our focus is on the perfect pint, lively conversation and a convivial atmosphere. You can also enjoy pizza! Please check our food and drink page for days and times. All members of the family are welcome, dogs included.
