Been to this pub twice in the last 3 weeks. First was on a Monday where they offer FREE sausage and mash. Yes it is free. However I went for the Roast cod loin on a pea risotto which was delicious. Second time I had Mussels with fries. Both delicious. Its a quirky pub with lots of memorabilia from RAF Sculthorpe which was a large air base during and after the war.

Stumbled upon the Aviator one weekend, since we have been for Sunday roast twice. The roast is cooked to perfection, perfectly presented and the most flavoured roast we have had out for a very long time. The meal was hot and the service was good. The setting is clean and a relaxed vibe. We will definitely be back.

Ordered dinner including a gluten free burger 'alternative ' so their idea of an alternative is no bun, no onion rings, and no money off, £18 pounds!!! Eventually offered £1 off for presenting a burger and chips. Fortunately the lady behind the bar, who was so embarrassed, offered a 20% discount. Other meals were only just warm and sides forgotten on one meal. Don't bother going there, they don't respond to emailed complaints. Other pubs nearby are much better. Sculthorpe Mill or Brancaster Ship. Why they can't keep a gluten free bun in the freezer is beyond me. There are so many other restaurants out there who do care, use them.

Went last night for dinner with our two dogs. The bar area where the dogs were allowed is the carpeted area, which was nice as it meant they weren’t laying on the hard floor, treats were available for them on the bar too (proper dog friendly pub 🐾. We’re made to feel welcome throughout our visit by the staff member and they really couldn’t do enough for us. We had the burger which I had had my eye on all week we have been on holiday and the ribs. Have to say the burger was one of the best I have ever had, so so tasty and it was so big I had to eat with a knife and fork as I couldn’t fit it in my mouth!! The ribs were also very tasty with loads of meat on them. Really good portion sizes and with the cost. Sadly couldn’t manage a pudding, which was a shame as I was fancying the sticky toffee pudding before I ate. Wish this pub was my local, definitely give it a go if your nearby.

Food was ok. My only complaint was that all of our food was just about warm, for everyone, on every course. Probably due to the fact there was one person serving the whole restaurant, taking orders, tending to the bar and taking payments. She was so busy she didn’t even have time to ask how the meals were or we would have said. Very expensive for what it was, especially considering the temperature.

Called into the Aviator this week for lunch and decided to choose the "Crispy Milk Chicken", I was so glad I did. As always the service was excellent and I did not have to wait long for the meal to arrive, I can only say it was worth it, the presentation of the meal was just wonderful, the taste unbelievable and if I had to score it out of 10 I would give it a 10, just perfection personified. I can't recommend the Aviator highly enough for atmosphere, service and quality, will most definitely go again.

Our review search for a.good reataurant in the Fakenham area didnt fail us. Meeting Norfolk family with a 15 month baby is never an easy task. We werent dissapointed. Thanks to front of house for taking care of us and thank you kitchen staff for our delicious meals. Nothing was too much for them. Decor is set around the airforce. But even a knarly old matelot would be happy here.

The Decor has a RAF theme that looks good and is executed with knick-knacks and memorabilia placed favourably around the public area. The area is closely associated with the Royal Air Force bases of West Raynham and RAF Sculthorpe. The Aviator is situated in the small village of Sculthorpe just off of the A148 road from Kings Lynn heading out to the Norfolk Coast. Our friends had invited my wife and me to a midday dinner and we were all pleased by the attentiveness from the young man servicing us. We did not all have a starter, my wife and I did. The salted squid was good and very much mimicked other restaurant chains servings such as Prezzo. For our main meals we chose Barbecued Ribs, Cod fillet and chips, Homemade Steak and Ale pie and Sea bass. For me the Sea bass was cooked well but the presentation was a bit amateurish. The green beans served with the meal were undercooked and too al dente for me. Likewise deep fried Kale is not to my taste but I ate is anyway. My wife’s Cod was tasteless she said, and the fries tasted like frozen chips. Our friend’s Barbecued ribs were okay and he was pleased with his choice. His wife had the homemade pie and it was very overpowered by too much onion. I tasted it myself and it was awful tasting and the meat was too firm and chewy. The kale or cabbage served with her meal was almost raw, and being finely chopped was hard to distinguish what green vegetable it actually was? In summery the experience was let down by the meal. My advice to the chef would be, check your technique and taste what you produce? Unfortunately we as a group will not be frequenting this establishment again. Get some in house feedback because not once were we asked if we were satisfied with the meal and service. We did not leave a gratuity.

We are having a few days holiday nearby and found the Aviator a friendly place to have our evening meal. The food was cooked to a high standard and the service excellent.

Although we are frequent visitors to North Norfolk, this was our first visit to the Aviator. The staff were friendly and helpful and the pub is very dog friendly. The food was well prepared and there was some imagination shown in the menu options. Would definitely recommend and we will be returning

We had an excellent experience at the Sculthorpe Aviator on 9th August. The main host was friendly and professional and I enjoyed the food. The dining experience is informal but sophosticated. Starter and desert were great; main course (beef noodles) were tasty but not as pretty. Overall would def recommend.
