The Lamb and Flag Welney in King's Lynn and West Norfolk

Had a really lovely meal with family, good portion sizes, really good quality food, such a lovely atmosphere to. Staff were so lovely, very friendly and couldn’t do enough for you.. Looking forward to our return already.

We met with two friends for a chat and catch-up whilst having lunch last Sunday.We were pleased to see that there were still restrictions in place and felt very comfortable being there.The staff were friendly and helpful and the lunch was a very satisfactory portion size and of great quality.Will definitely be having a revisit in the near future.

We decided to book a table here for a nice dinner out whilst staying at Head Fen Country Retreat for our last night it was only about a ten minute drive from where we were staying. The staff are lovely and we decided to eat outside as it was very warm evening, the garden is tidy and seating areas clean.There was plenty to choose from on the menu and the portions did not disappoint the food was delicious I had the fish and chips and my partner had the beef lasagna definitely was filling I even tried to make room for the deserts which was nice too great choices of cakes and different flavoured ice cream not just your standard ones. We will definitely be booking here again on our visit

this is the best public house i have been to more than once the land lady is the best as is the staff and food im in top 2% on trip advisor so know what i am talking about i live about 1 mile away give it a try its so good i used to be alan and sally from portsmouth now im alan and sally from welney its so nice here

Went here with my Mother on a Sat eve. First time out for months with C19 lockdown. All had starters, portions are pretty big. Starters which came pretty quickly were whitebait wife & me, Mum had breaded brie. Mains we had steak & ale pie, Mum had Gammon steak & I had pork & chorizo burger this served skinny, no bun & a salad rather than chips. All were very tasty. The pie was fantastic & although not part of my diet was very tempting. We all had Puds which were nice as well. In all a nice meal, sensible bill, friendly staff & nice location what more can you want!

My husband and I both had roast pork Sunday lunch. It is the best Sunday lunch we had. Much better than places that costs 2-3 times more. The cracklings are just right, not to chewy. The meat is high quality. All the vegetables and Yorkshire puddings are home made and delicious. Overall highly recommended. It is a shame we do not live near the place and can’t visit it often.

Outstanding Sunday lunch, one of the best I've had in the UK, just wish I lived closer. Great choice of beers, plus good efficient friendly service.

We visited here for dinner when staying in the local area. It was recommended by the place we was staying at and it did not disappoint. We visited late afternoon on a Saturday and it was pretty quiet at the time. The staff were really welcoming and friendly. The food was definitely the best part about it, ordering a lamb shank and steak pie, they were both absolutely delicious, proper English pub food. Reasonably priced too. The pub was also great being COVID safe and advised to wear masks and keep distance which was great to see. Overall I fantastic experience and would highly recommend

All the staff were so friendly and welcoming at the Lamb & Flag that you felt at ease as soon as you entered the place. They were following all the necessary C-19 guidance they are obliged to at present, so it felt comfortable enough in that respect to, whilst still having enough rustic charm. They served a great selection of food/drinks and everything we had to eat was really delicious, although bring a large appetite as the portions are large, they certainly don’t leave you going home hungry.

This local pub/restaurant is really lovely.We were recommended by locals and so glad we booked.We had dinner for 4 , it was really charming and clean inside,really spacious and all the covid guidelines were being followed to the letter.The staff were all very friendly and personal and the food was just delicious.Lots of choice,great value and very large portions.I would definitely recommend a visit here if you are in the area.

Nice drive upto Norfolk for the roast dinner ,was really nice and the portions are a good size plenty of beef well cooked to . Bonus as there was a band playing in the garden will defo be back.

i live in portsmouth but came to welney on holiday about 16 weeks ago but i was so surprised of the lamb and flag food and landlord i have since moved up to welney it is the best pub ive ever been too and the landlord is the best ive ever met as he has not been open we have had takeaway so good but he opens on the saturday the 25 th i used to be alan and sally from portsmouth now im alan and sally from welney im in top 2 percent on tripadvisor so know what im saying is true thanks alan

This was one of several visits we have made to the Lamb and Flag for lunch we have never been disappointed with the food this time we had the pork hock which was very well cooked. The selection of beers is very good.

Poor service,Had to ask to order food,nicest thing on the plate was the meat,cold mashed potatoes sent back twice,never again

Lovely burger with nice bacon,good strong cheese,good portion of crispy chips and nice to see stokes ketchup. But oh.... why bother with the tiny portion of awful coleslaw,not needed

Sunday's were made for roast dinners and these are special. Great food, service and atmostphere. Open fire on a cold day, is a bonus as well.

Amazing Sunday Lunch again at the Lamb and Flag, I don’t there is anything they could do to improve the Sunday Lunch offering. Great portion size all food piping hot, staff very friendly, I don’t think I have ever had better.

we went to bedford bank and met chris manager of the mobiles there and went to the lamb and flag paul the landlord is the best landlord i have ever met the food in this pub is the very best i have ever had you may need a forklift to bring you out as the food is very very big but so good as is everything you have here im movung up from portsmouth just for the food not a joke be up end of may as im in top 2% on trip advisor trust me alan sally from portsmouth

First time visit to this pub/Restaurant, evening meal. Friendly and welcoming staff.The food was excellent with well above portion sizes, Service was prompt and polite, food nice and hot and staff were very attentive. Too much to be able to eat dessert.

We were staying nearby. Had lunch one day and dinner another evening. Friendly, warm and welcoming pub. The food is excellent and potions ample couldn't manage a pudding. Well worth a visit.

First time I have visited this pub, heard good reports.Table booked for 1.30pm seated on time. Service was excellent, prompt but really friendly. Choice of roast meats was really good and vege and vegan alternatives as well. Portion size is large, good choice of vegetables, no-one left the table hungry, no room for desserts. Will certainly return.

Stopped off here on the way back from a weekend away on the coast and so glad we did. Pub is really homely and nice. Service was excellent and very friendly. The food was even better. All 6 of us were impressed with our meals and would recommend dining here to anyone.

we have been here quite a few times over the years when i visit my daughter in march great food and plenty of it with a choice of menue

Ordered sandwiches and a bowl of chips in a special offer With a free drink What plateful great food for such a great price

After being recommended this place by a work colleague we decided to try them out for some lunch. Had the Steak pie and a Chicken dish. Both meals were outstanding and really tasty. Friendly staff and lovely atmosphere. Highly recommend.

We visited the restaurant for my Son's birthday lunch. Very welcoming staff and good food. Very efficient service. Good value and would highly recommend

A wonderful unpretentious country pub with fine food and a choice of three cask ales. The landlord and staff were friendly and jovial, the pub was clean and warm and there was a great choice on the menu.

A lovely find, needed somewhere for lunch, had a quick look on TripAdvisor and saw the great reviews. We were note disappointed. Great food and lovely staff. We had 2 x fish and chips and 1 x scampi and chips. Would rate F&C; in top three ever had.

Lovely restaurant with great food, couldn’t fault it ! Great service and nice atmosphere. Would definitely return and would have the pie next time as that looked delicious

Quaint traditional pub restaurant. Lovely log fire and a great lunch. Reasonably priced with good friendly service from the staff. Dog friendly. Perfect on a cold Monday lunchtime! Thanks

Booked late on a Friday Night to visit early on the Saturday Evening whilst in the area visiting friends who live nearby, picked this venue after reviews on Trip Advisor. Great traditional country pub, real fire, great food and welcoming feel. All our meals were great value (pie, gammon, scampi and the 16oz pork chop) Unfortunately didn’t have room for puds but hopefully try when we visit again. Our friends who live nearby will definitely return. Great local pub. wish we lived closer.

We came here Saturday just gone, we were greeted by lovely friendly staff member, I didn’t catch her name. I couldn’t fault anything, the turkey and leek pie I had was incredible - it has to be the best pie I have ever had! The rest of my friends were equally pleased with their food!

Visited here after hearing good reviews from friends. Not disappointed and pleasantly surprised. Very generous portions and good value. One of the men in our group wasn't able to finish his meal of steak and ale pie,one of his favourites.

We had heard many good reports on the quality of the Food here, and wow they were all spot on

Generous portions and very satisfied.

Superb food, drink and humour... Lovely typically English pub. Wood panelling, prized fish from the local waterways, country pictures and a fire as appropriate. Great atmosphere aided by Paul and the locals. Sharp wit is prevalent. Perfectly served gin. Broad menu always with superb fish. Food is of excellent quality, whether fish, steak, other meats and a range of other dishes including the usual currey. Efficient and friendly service with all requests well met. Easy parking. Highly recommended. The best pub food in the area.

Dropped in for a drink and found ourselves having a meal as well. We have been visiting The Lamb and Flag on & off since the mid 1980's, whey before TripAdvisor was even considered. The atmosphere and ambience is great, the decor purely local and attributed to the Fens, you wouldn't expect anything else! There are two dinning rooms, with plenty of choice on the menu. Tonight I had the Gammon, washed down with a pint of Elgoods ale, absolutely excellent. The staff are terrific, friendly, warm and welcoming. Harry B is very happy to recommend The Lamb and Flag in Welney, although I took a chance for a table, be sure to book to avoid disappointment. Enjoy!

We are very lucky to count The Lamb & Flag’ as one of our local pub restaurants and we couldn’t ask for better. We moved to the area a year ago and was looking for a special place to eat for a special occasion and thought we’d give it a try. It was so worth it and have returned many times. The welcome is always friendly and the food has always been amazing, with a varied menu, suitable for both a special meal and a spur of the moment lunch.

Visited recently for a birthday lunch with friends . It was not our first visit and seemed the ideal choice for a friendly relaxed lunch , we were not wrong .

Ordered scampi and chips and ham egg and chips. The service was fast and very friendly. The food was amazing and you got a lot too ! A lovely restaurant with a friendly atmosphere. Definitely worth a visit if you are known the area.

Went with friends had a very good evening meal good beers varied menu . Busy for a weds night will definitely be returning

We have been holidaying in the surrounding area and we have eaten here 3 times this week. The 1st time was on Tuesday night which was their Steak and Fish and Chip Night. The steaks were great and you could not argue with the price. Mid week we called in for a light snack at lunchtime. The sandwiches were spot on and were made with lovely fresh bread. Sunday we decided to have Sunday Lunch to finish off the week. You could choose from Beef, Lamb, Pork or Turkey. These came with a lovely choice of FRESH and HOT vegetables. We topped it all off with 2 very tasty desserts. The diet starts next week!!!!!

Very good quality food gets busy so book.. food choice excellent plenty to choose from and portions very good seeet menu very good as well plus good choice of beers and shorts

Came in last Sunday afternoon. Was a great atmosphere and the foot was to perfection. Can’t beat a Sunday roast like this. Will he coming back in the future

Cannot be faulted, the meal was excellent. Made to feel very welcome by landlord and must say that nothing was too much trouble. Will definitely be visiting again.

We booked for an 80th Birthday meal on a saturday evening, 9 adults & 4 children.No complaints on any of the meals.The staff were friendly and efficient,Great night out

Another lovely meal lovely hosts food as always delicious 😋 and they had another new gin in( sherbet lemon) which is always a bonus

I come home from the USA frequently for a month at a time and I like to have a real Sunday lunch and so we go to different venues each week in search of the perfect Sunday lunch. Well our search is over. The Sunday lunch at the Lamb and Flag in welney has it all. The food is delicious the servings are huge the staff are so nice the land lord has a great sense of humor and the pub has a true ambiance that takes you back to when a pub was ac pub. My mother uses a Walker and she was able to get into the pub with her large Walker without assistance. The pub is beautiful on the inside and out. I only have one more week here before I leave again and guess where I will be having Sunday lunch back at the lamb and flag

Lovely little comfy country pub with a log fire to boot!!

FINALLY! A pub where you can still get just a good ol’sandwich... ahh joy!! (There are lots of other ‘gormet’ style things on the menue too!)

We had a lovely family meal sat out in the sun. Excellent food quality and service. Even the granddaughters whom are fussy eaters enjoyed it. We arrived as they had just finished cooking but did accommodate our request albeit a limited menu.

Very friendly staff, excellent food. My husnand and I had the pie, it was excellent. Would definitly reccomend.

I’m not a huge roast dinner fan but the roast here could change my mind. Each of the 4 of us had something different and I would have settled for any of them. Everything was piping hot and cooked to perfection. Am filled to the brim but i’m still eyeing up the desserts.

Whilst visiting the village, we called in for lunch and a pint.

Enjoyed a great meal at this lovely pub. Didn't have long to wait for our meal to arrive and large portions too. Diesel the cat made us laugh up at the bar. Well worth a visit and you won't be disappointed.

A traditional village pub, serving a great food menu at great prices. Specials board worth looking at for something different. Would highly recommend if just passing by. Booking a table also advisable.

Been here a few times never disappointed, great service and great food , one of the best parts of the customer service was we were only ask once by one person is everything ok , this was great not only could we chat and eat but we were not getting asked just as we put food in to eat , it was a great meal , now the lighter nights are drawing in makes the drive a nice and safe one , well done guys

what a wonderful pub there were 4 of us and 1 child went here on a Friday night it was very busy but service was good the food is excellent the atmosphere very cosy . Does get busy so you need to book.

Taken to our table at the end of pub room very basic no atmosphere for a Saturday night.

We must have eaten at the Lamb and Flag four dozen times in the four years we've been back in the area and, frankly, have never been disappointed. We ate there twice this last week, with Saturday evening's meal being easily the best of two very good ones. It's time for us to move on so we will no longer be regular guests two or three times a week in the Bar, so we say goodbye with some sadness. On Thursday we took some friends for lunch - really good - but on Saturday the star chef (Kyle) turned out two superb fish meals, with the top team on the bar. A memorable evening. We wish all the best to Dennis, Gina, Kyle, Ryan and the team at this very good pub restaurant.

We found this pub after an Internet search. A friendly landlord greeted us with a fire blazing in the grate. Dogs welcomed. Menu simple but food well cooked and delicious. Great atmosphere of locals enjoying food, drink and company. Highly recommended.

Excellent Sunday lunch today, very good value for money would definitely go again. Proper home cooked food and desserts were lovely.

Forget where you'd normally go, this pub serves the best roast dinner bar none, beef pork lamb or turkey all supplied by Sargents butchers with all the trimmings served with extra gravy, Mmmmmm, simple the best, but make sure you book in advance though as it's always popular. The pub also has a great gin selection and good draft beer and lager all served with a great atmosphere.Steak night on a Tuesday is well worth a visit too, in fact Monday to Saturday the menu is extensive and the food beautiful all at a reasonable price, pay the lamb and flag a visit you won't be disappointed.

Very friendly village pub Just popped in for a quick cider Just tell job Feel better already Food looks good

Good home cooked food using local produce in a traditional comfortable pub Full of character with friendly welcoming staff

Went out to celebrate Valentine’s Day with the misses. Really warm and friendly how ever our first time experience where let down by the steaks. Asked for 1 to be rare which came out medium, other asked for Med to rare which came out as med to well done. When trying to get served to ask for the bill, stood at the bar for 5-10 minutes but the staff liked to serve the locals first even when they just walked through the door.

We visited here with another couple one Saturday evening on the recommendation of numerous friends. We booked a table for 6pm amd were seated on the dot. We found the food was nice, service was good and drinks reasonably priced. The open fires were a nice touch. All in all we had a good evening and will visit again.

This was our second visit; our first was for lunch, this time dinner. We arrived a few minutes late due to the weather but we got a warm welcome from the staff behind the bar. We sorted our wine order and it was brought to our table with menus by one of the bar staff. My wife chose a prawn cocktail starter and I the fenland chicken with a dip. Our main course, we each chose off the specials board, was the beef suet pudding and the desserts being the syrup pudding and the crumble.

This is a lovely friendly local pub. We visited after spending day at WWT Welney and we all had great food. Pub has open fires and really welcoming and friendly.

Can say this is the second time we have visit here and the food is lovely no disappointments the service it 1st class and the staff are lovely people will definitely be visiting again

Had a lovely family meal here. The food was good , however ,more choice for vegetarians would have been appreciated . Friendly atmosphere and service. It would have been a 5 star review , however we did have to tolerate a cold draft from the door in the restaurant .

We got totally lost (my fault) but we were so glad we eventually found The Lamb and Flag. My son had booked lunch for us and we were shown to our table by the welcome open fire with a friendly greeting.

Went out for a date night to the Lamb and Flag. Had a pleasant evening, the pub has a nice atmosphere, very oldie worldie in a nice location. The meal was good but nothing special.

Have been here many times for Sunday lunch and evening meals. Sorry to say but won’t go back. Had late lunch this Sunday. Place was very busy. Plates were extremely hot as if meat, potatoes and Yorkshire pud being kept in oven for some time. I don’t know if this contributed to the tough meat (beef) and not too good roasties. Veg was ok but broccoli mushy. I took most of beef home for my dogs. Husband did say his was ok. Not once were we asked if food was ok or if we wanted another drink. Left before being offered dessert. Usually we spend a longer time over meal and drinks but couldn’t wait to leave and get home.

What can I say apart from I am so very disappointed by the food served on this visit. My partner and I had to book a table much later than we usually like to eat as they were busy Pre Christmas, but when we arrived they were nearly empty. The service at the bar was very good as usual.

I am keen bird watch so on the way back from Welney. I pop in for Sunday lunch. Great friendly staff, Really good food, Really well price Highly recommended, also great for dog walkers as its dog friendly

Wonderful friendly staff, great menu, gorgeous food! Will definitely be returning again and again! Plus it is dog friendly which is perfect for us. This has probably now become our local pub.

I love this place, had heard good things but wanted to check it out myself.

Lovely lunch on Monday catching up with family, we all had beautiful meals. The owner is a lovely man, very friendly and genuine. I had a Lmg Shank and it was gorgeous. Been before and will definitely go again

Great food and service at a reasonable price. Lots of choice and friendly service. Couldn’t wish for a better evening.

I had Christmas dinner.it was delicious everything was perfect.we all enjoyed it.It was the best Christmas dinner I have ever had.well done to all the staff

First time in the area so didn't know what to expect, but we were pleasantly surprised by the cosy ambience, varied menu and friendly service. The Fenmans steak pie which my friend chose was delicious, full of tender meat, and very substantial, and even the "lighter" lunch -baked Camenbert- which I opted for, proved to be a hearty portion. Good food, well presented, and even a cosy log fire to brighten up a dull November day.

Went there on a recommedation and was not disappointed. The food and service were very good. Good old pub food in a nice friendly atmosphere. I love fish and chips and although a simple dish really shows the craft of the chef.

Fabulous home cooked food. Will be returning. Had a pram which they accommodated. Only disappointment we couldn't fit pudding in.

Went to the Lamb and Flag for lunch today after a 3 to 4 month absence. It was fantastic. Paul the man incharge behind the bar was welcoming as usual with the right amount of banter, the atmosphere severely suffers when he leaves for his afternoon break. Food grear, good portions and very tasty. Glad we returned

very good meal steak cooked just right. All other meals where very well received, scampi and chips were a large portion, chicken also a large portion but very tasty. The burgers were huge, but everything was well presented and very tasty.

We first tried the Lamb & Flag for lunch, both the service and food, meat pie and lasagna followed by deserts cheesecake and caramel apple pie was so good we decided to return a week later for dinner. Once again the greeting was very welcoming, we chose our wine which was taken to our table and menus given and we were left to peruse in comfort. We chose starters from the menu and mains from the specials board, so much choice it was so hard to decide. The starters prawns & chicken were lovely and so was the main courses suet mince puddings, well cooked and good portion sizes. We couldn't leave without again sampling their deserts, crumble and sponge, with very good quality ice cream. This is a country pub with a warm welcome. a very good chef and delightful staff. We will certainly be back very soon.

This was our second visit; our first was for lunch, this time dinner. We arrived a few minutes late due to the weather but we got a warm welcome from the staff behind the bar.

Our main course, we each chose off the specials board, was the beef suet pudding and the desserts being the syrup pudding and the crumble.

Woman behind the bar wasn't the friendliest however the lady who served us our food was lovely and helpful.

Went on the 2nd October to celebrate our anniversary. Food as usual was excellent. As we were drinking we booked to stay the night and although the rooms were basic they were clean and we had no complaints. Breakfast next morning was top notch and would recommend this if you stay here.

Could have counted the finger nail size sauté potato on one hand. Duck tasted like liver and while one of the waitresses was excellent, the other was rather rude.

Great food, great ambiance, great staff, great pub, it’s just great. Check out the menu online. They also have Steak, Fish & Chips and curry night. Check out the fish platter. Accommodation is available at the pub. If you are a angler it is a great location. Just ring 01354 610242 and book a table. Also a good location to visit the Welney Wetland Centre.

This pub is amazing and its pies are gorgeous! We have visited this place about 5 times now and the food is really good. We have friends in the area and we love to meet up at the Lamb and Flag. Great area for a visit to the Ouse Washes and Welney reserve. And a visit to the amazing Denver Sluice!

Went for lunch yesterday with my husband. We had fresh tuna nicoise and lamb shank, followed by ice cream. Large portions and lot’s of choice. Also specials board. Well done to Kyle and the team, another great meal.

The food is always amazing every time we visit (lunch and dinner) at a very reasonable price. The service is excellent and the staff make the place feel homely. Although the place often gets fully book it is rare that you don't get in as the staff will go over and beyond to fit you in.

Been here a few times never disappointed, great service and great food , my only point is that it is quite a drive on a dark night but well worth it

We had dinner here. The fish and chips were excellent, very generous portion so we did not have enough appetite to try their desserts, the service was friendly, if we are in the area again we would certainly go back.

We popped in here for lunch, It had been recommend by friends..we were not disappointed, lovely tasty hot food, friendly service and staff, we will definitely be back.

Visited for Sunday lunch. Clearly a popular place, booking essential! We didn’t realise having looked at the website that it was roast only. Beef turkey or lamb. We chose lamb. We wanted wine but they did not have a wine menu and choice was very limited £16 for a Cabernet Sauvignon which we felt was reasonably priced. The servings are very generous and piping hot! The lamb was tasteless but everything else was lovely.

We visited our friends who live in Welney and walked to the Lamb and Flag for lunch. The food was really tasty and the service brilliant. We sat in the garden which is very nice and just had a thoroughly enjoyable lunch. Would definitely visit again.
