    Great little pub in the heart of a vibrant community. Fantastic service and amazing decor. Beautiful garden for al fresco drinking in the summer. And Peters hospitality is second to none!

    Love the new look of the garden! Plants are well looked after and beautifully looking flower baskets! Nice and comfortable lounge chairs and tv screens showing sporting events. Everything you need to relax on a weekend afternoon.

    Had such a great night at The Jolly Sailor last Saturday. DJ Alex entertained with banging tunes, the staff were so lovely and welcoming. Holly and Peter were so attentive and friendly creating good vibes all round. Also love the decor! Clean, colourful and a great beer garden. What’s not to love? Will defo be going back

    It is nice to see the Jolly Sailor up and running again. The pub has had an extensive refurbishment, which looks really great. The garden is nice with two large tvs. Though the garden could do with some more plants instead of weeds. Unfortunately, the place does not do food and I believe will never do food because of the cost to refurb the kitchen. The only downside I can see for some was the prices of drinks.

    Great pub, friendly staff and a much more welcoming place since the refurb. Walked in on Thursday and it was quite a busy karaoke night so it's nice to see that there are a few more nice fun things to do now in Norwood!
