Midlands Yellow 4,118 Posted August 4, 2023 The only time I drink in the mornings but always make an exception when going to Carrow Road. Always start in the Murderers but quite like the Lamb too before a march up Timber Hill for more liquid joy. Where’s everyone else’s first watering hole before Kick Off?

Satriales 710 Posted August 4, 2023 I moved away from Norfolk 10 years ago. Just curious, doesn't anyone go to the Coach & Horses on Thorpe Rd anymore? Used to be great pre match, especially when they setup an outside bar. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Spillay 180 Posted August 4, 2023 My usual haunt these days is the Nelson, not exactly a proper pub I know like the Murderers etc but its right near the station (I live in Kent) and not too far from the ground, so always a good starter, decent Guinness too 🙂 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
