What a lovey pub! Food is fresh and well priced, and full of flavour. Fantastic beer garden and friendly staff. Chips are actually homemade which is a rarity these days. Chefs have pride in their work and it shows. Ales are lovely as well!

The Gorleston on Sea life boat shop volunteers went for our Christmas meal ? I would just like to say the welcome was very warm fabulous surroundings and as for the food , as I have worked as a chef my opinion is amazing One of the best meals I have ever consumed all fresh food no ping ping 2 courses were £15 absolutely fabulous ? If you had a pud you were in for a treat No little tiny Christmas pudding They were huge ? and very tasty I would give this place 11 out of ten Give it a go You are in for a treat
Excellent service friendly staff. Great atmosphere. Nice beer garden area for those that smoke. Food was really good. Good choices though a little pricier than some pubs.

A lovely quirky pub oozing with character & history. Heard great things regarding this place from friends & on social media about the brilliant food & Sunday roast therefore it had big expectations to live up to & boy it did ? I had the seafood platter for one & the others had the roast. My meal was awesome, so much lush tasty seafood. The others had the Sunday roast which they also said was fantastic followed by a pavlova desert mmmmm also so nice ! Thank you Kev & to the top chef & team in kitchen, whoever you are well done & appreciated ??? see you soon ?

Five years in Gorleston, and only now discover the Short Blue. Don't be put off by the location, beyond the main highstreet, or the entrance that we always thought looked closed down, for through the doors is a charming olde worlde looking pub(but basically the place is a restaurant). Friends have been a few times in the last few weeks and said the food was great - and this from friends used to London restaurants and others across the world... Anyway...enough waffling...BEST Sunday roast out I can ever remember having....and at an amazing £11! Yum yum yum. An absolute hidden treasure.

Visited with my partner, parents, cousins, and cousin wife on Sunday 10 September 2023. Everything was superb - best Sunday lunch ever, food terrific, service friendly and efficient, atmosphere friendly. Perfect ! Will definitely be eating and drinking here again on future visits to Gorleston.
