We visited Berney Arms Pub on 11th September, my 60th birthday, on the final leg of the 60-mile Weavers’ Way Walk. A charmed day obviously, as I see that this was the day that the planning application was turned down to convert it into a house. Having planned the walk for some time, I was disappointed to think that the pub would be closed, so imagine my delight when I discovered that it had reopened again for the summer. I no longer live in Norfolk, but feel it would be a great tragedy if this pub was to close for good.

Yarmouth Advertiser on Thursday 29th October has a piece about the pub. CAMRA want to have the pub listed as a special community building allowing locals to bid for its ownership.

Hi... will you be open for food and drinks from October 17th 2015...??
Thanks

Application to convert pub into dwelling has been refused by Broads Authority on 11th September 2015.

Inn still up for sale.

The Berney Arms has been open for two weeks serving food and drink. The owner has applied to the Broads Authority for permission to change the inn into a private dwelling.

The wife and I caught the train for Yarmouth and visited the Berney Arms yesterday, unfortunately still closed and up for sale. Really enjoyed the walk back to Great Yarmouth with the dogs, and the weather was glorious. Well maintained pathways and kissing gates.

The Berney Arms pub is still up for sale. Let's hope some one takes it over and gets the pub going again soon

We went there twice, by boat, last week in July and first in August. The couple running the place told us the lunch time rushes had been so good that they were looking at keeping the place open throughout the year. Good food and beer but, sadly, all the old atmosphere had gone.
A friend of mine, who goes there every year on a university reunion, made his usual pilgrimage just over a week ago. Found it as described below. Closed signs in all the windows.
Here's hoping someone else takes it on soon. They usually do!
Mind you, it was always busier when the mill was open. Now that too is locked up and looking sad.

There is now a For Sale sign at the pub. It has an asking price of £230,000 and has been listed by TW Gaze.

Went there Sat 23rd - we often walk from the station to Berney Arms, then on to the Ship at Reedham and the Nelson.
Sorry to have to tell you Berney Arms is CLOSED, so is the Nelson, such a shame.
Recession over is it Cameron?

Will visit Berney Arms on way home from north broads in a few days

Hope it's as we found it last year

Noted we are 70001th visitor to website!

Had a great night at Berney Arms, food and beer was excellent, definitely worth mooring up and checking out.

Hi to everyone, we have just taken on the 'Berney Arms Inn' and hope to meet as many visitors as possible. Fine ales and good food will be available as well as a warm welcome.

I have become fascinated with this area after reading "Coot Club" by Arthur Ransome. This book contains wonderful and atmospheric descriptions of the area. Do read it if you haven't already done so. Berney Arms also features in it.

Brilliant web site, many thanks.
I will try the Berney Arms tonight.

Had a nice visit to Berney Arms at the weekend. Hope the Berney Arms does well.

The pub reopened with a new leaseholder on Saturday 20th April. He hopes to stay open through as much of the winter as possible too!

Great site. However would have been good to know it was recently closed and now more importantly re-opened. Long way to go to find out. Let's hope it stays open a long time.

According to another site The Pub has closed as of early Feb 2013
