Amazing location, fabulous after the coastal path walk. We always have lunch and highly recommend the fish sandwich. Been coming for years, Jim behind the bar is great. Outside back garden since Covid overhaul is fantastic. Dog friendly. Love the place. Haven’t rated the rooms as not stayed since Helen ran the place so cannot comment, but where lovely.
Went for Sunday dinner, it's advisable to book.
Lovely old historic pub, with tasteful extensions.
The food was absolutely delicious, beautiful thick slices of beef, served with a huge Yorkshire pudding and tasty vegetables.
For dessert I had the treacle tart, served with salted caramel ice cream and slices of stem ginger, it was lovely.
Nice bottle of Merlot too.
The staff were all pleasant.
Dog friendly, which is nice as its near the coastal footpath.
Large car park.
We will definitely be returning.
lovely rooms and staff, food was good to apart from tagliatelle which was supposed to be field mushroom but only had one mushroom however rest was good and mussels were the best I've ever had!! brilliantly situated too. The only criticism I would have is that they could do with more serving staff the two ladies working Saturday night were here there and everywhere but still managed excellent service. well done definitely worth a visit
Impeccable service. Small, but lovely rooms. Very quiet, with plenty of snacks and drinks available in the room or from the bar area downstairs. Very good food. The location was stunning and ideal for exploring the gorgeous Norfolk coast.
My partner and I went to the lifeboat Inn for a Saturday afternoon lunch, we both found the lifeboat clean tidy staff were approachable friendly. The food was nice. We would both recommend a visit. The only thing we didn't like was dogs were allowed in just a tad off putting when eating our personal opinion before anyone wants to say different
Came here just for drinks in the pub. Lovely quaint pub, dimly lit too 👌🏻(if you like that rustic kind of vibe). Felt like an old classic pub which is what I love 👍🏻 Low beam ceilings and a local brew on the draught selection of beers too. Log fires were nice too.
I really like this place. An old traditional inn with low doorways (mind your head!!) and lots of different styles of places to sit in the pub area - cuby holes, arm chairs, two fireplaces. The layout means that sound is well confined so even when busy it's a relaxed aural environment.
Service can sometimes be a little slow but is friendly and professional so the occassional delay is instantly forgotten.
I've eaten in the restaurant on one occasion - whole Plaice which was reasonably priced and tasted good. The other occasion was sharing a mushroom pizza in the bar area, that was good also.
This is one of our go-to places when we're in the area.
Dog friendly establishment.
What an amazing, welcoming place to stay, just spent two days at the Lifeboat inn with some wonderful friends. Plenty of parking, the staff were so welcoming and helpful, nothing was too much trouble. Such a warm welcome as soon as you walk through the doors, within the hotels public areas every room had a wood burning fire which smelt divine, plenty of seating and dining areas, great outdoor seating at the back, dogs are very welcomed, they even had a sausage for breakfast, no area was out of bounds for your dogs either.
Plenty of walking to be done if your up for it with some lovely pubs n dining along the way.
We loved every moment of our stay.
Thankyou to all at the Lifeboat inn.

Great location, great service, great food. Dog friendly and they welcomed all 9 of us together. Will definitely return when we are holidaying in Norfolk again.
We loved our visit to the Lifeboat. We came here for dinner while on holiday in Thornham. The food is tasty and portions are very generous. The baby back ribs and beef burger were great. There is a large car park if arriving by car. Looking forward to a return visit in the future!
Was a bit of a last minute decision but was very pleasantly surprised, service great, food was very good. Fish and chips massive and the pie was very nice indeed. The place is very cosy. Honestly, give it a go you'll love it
Had two great ales and a brilliant meal. The room was lovely and well shocked. Would really recommend it.
The pub has a cozy and rustic interior, with a fireplace and wooden furnishings that create a warm and inviting atmosphere. atmosphere. The pub is also known for its delicious food, which is made using locally sourced ingredients. The pub’s location, combined with its friendly staff and welcoming ambiance, make it a must-visit destination for anyone looking for a unique and memorable experience.
A few years ago we ate here and it was excellent. Yesterday after a long walk we had a very good quality meal - big portions!
Nice ambience, good beer, interesting menu and good value taking into account the size of the meal
Went here for Christmas Dinner, as well as drinks over the festive season. Food was excellent, the staff friendly and welcoming. Dogs are allowed. Great place to pop in after a walk over the marshes.
The hotel is in a lovely quiet location. Had beautiful walks through the salt marshes to the beach straight from the hotel door.
The staff were lovely. They all
Made a fuss of the dog and he even got sausage for breakfast.
The food was beautiful.
Rooms clean and comfortable.
