The Bull Public House
Vince and Ian took over the Fakenham Bull as joint patrons in early 2004. They undertook a complete restoration of the premises including some expansion of the bedrooms upstairs.
Not being tied to a brewery means that the team can bring in interesting guest beers. Some of the ales and beers are from local breweries with awards and national recognition. Being a free house also means that the Inn can make policy decisions to suit the Town of Fakenham and the people who live there, rather than for the brewery bottom line.
They have decorated the interior with a modern contemporary but sympathetic, furnishings and style. There are plenty of lounging sofas downstairs, as well as seating at the bar and tables for eating and drinking.
