📍 North Cove, Suffolk Open 6 days a week from 12.00 noon Tuesday to Sunday, closed Mondays. Food Served all day Situated on the A146 between the fishing port of Lowestoft (5 miles) and the Market Town of Beccles (3 miles), the Three Horseshoes offers a vast array of refreshments and good traditional home cooked food in a Family run Pub. And it’s not ju

st any pub, the Three Horseshoes is said to be one of the oldest remaining working pubs in the area dating back to 1497, and is seated in front of the splendid medieval parish church, St. With ample off-road parking and indoor and outdoor seating (including the new Beer Garden which is under development), this all year round country pub and restaurant is a great place to visit. The Three Horseshoes is just a short walk from the River Waveney which spans the Suffolk and Norfolk Broads. Although you cannot reach the pub directly by water, the X2 bus route stops very close by, and cycle route 30 runs right passed the entrance. There are also several footpaths that are close enough to make a detour for a quick half whilst out rambling or bird watching! North Cove is not short of local attractions either, so why not wind up your day out in our Family, Child and Dog Friendly pub? Relax in front of the Log Fire in the colder months, or take in the fresh air and views from our beautiful outdoor area.

Iron Brew... but make it beer. 🍺🍦

We've got some wonderfully odd things lurking in the beer fridge, and this might just be one of our favourites.

Iron Brew Float from Vault City is a modern sour inspired by Scotland's iconic fizzy drink and vanilla ice cream.

Sweet, tangy, nostalgic... and definitely a conversation starter.

Perfect if you fancy trying something a little different this weekend.

Old beams. Bold flavours. Weird beer.

Live music this Sunday 🎶

Arianne White joins us from 4–6pm for an afternoon of classics, singalongs and guilty pleasures.

Pair it with a pint, something from the Asian street food menu and (hopefully) a bit more of this sunshine.

No tickets. No fuss. Just turn up and enjoy your Sunday.

See you there 🍻

Last call for this menu...

In the next couple of weeks this lot disappears to make way for something new ✨

Some dishes have become favourites, others have surprised us, but we're ready to shake things up again!

If you've had your eye on the Bao Buns, the king Pao Shrimp, the Duck Dumpling Curry or the Asian Pork Belly Waffle 🤤, now's the time ⌛

Old beams. Bold flavours.

Book a table before they're gone.

The fridge has had a fresh refill... 🍻

We've restocked the weird, the wonderful and the "what on earth is that?" section of the bar.

Jam Doughnut Pale Ale? ✔️
Cherry Tonkoko Milk Stout? ✔️
Iron Brew Float Sour? ✔️
Mango Inferno? ✔️

If craft beer is your thing, there's plenty to get stuck into.

We've also got a new one pouring on tap...

🍑 Pilfer Peach Lager – crisp, refreshing and made for sitting in the garden pretending Suffolk has permanently become the Mediterranean.

See you at the bar.

The weekend has landed. ☀️

Full menu today and tomorrow, Sunday we'll be switching over to our Asian street food menu from 12pm–5:30pm, with live music from Brad James Music 4pm–6pm 🎶

Sunshine, a cold pint, a bowl of something tasty and an afternoon in the garden sounds like a pretty decent way to finish the weekend.

See you at The Three Horseshoes. 🍻

So Friday is set to be crazy hot.

According to my weather app it’s due to hit 32 degrees in North Cove 🔥🔥🔥

With that in mind, our kitchen will be at least 15 degrees hotter than outside — so probably somewhere around the 47 degree mark 😬

For the wellbeing of the team (and in the hope our fridges don’t give up), we’re keeping the ovens off for the day.

This Friday we’ll be serving Asian street food and light bites only.

Back to normal on Saturday, all being well.

Thanks for bearing with us x

OUR NEW MENU IS HERE 🌏🍻

A year on from opening our doors, we're still doing what we set out to do from day one — serving bold, globally inspired food from our little Suffolk pub.

Our latest menu includes:
🥢 Tempura Soft Shell Crab Bao Buns
🦐 Kung Pao Shrimp
🦆 Duck Dumpling Curry
🐑 Keema Lamb Flatbread
🥓 Asian Pork Belly Waffle
🌱 Vegan Chana Masala

Alongside our carefully selected real ales, ciders and local favourites.

If you're expecting standard pub grub, we're probably not the pub for you.

If you're looking for something a little different, welcome to The Three Horseshoes.

Old beams, bold flavours.
A proper pint, a global bite.
