The door was open in the dolphin inn one day. I popped in and the bar and everything is still there.
As an ex Yarmouth boy living in Dubai now - this video brought back so many memories. The pub behind the Carlton Hotel used to be called Ye Olde Shades and strangely when I was a teenager was on the route for locals on a Friday night - we used to have a few in the town then end up in Shades before we went onto the seafront and the various clubs (Discos in those days) - It then became part of the Penny Farthing suite of Bars that The Carlton Hotel developed. The Dolphin was a quite busy pub during the 80s when Norfolk Line's ferry terminal was next door and a lot of truck drivers would drink (and eat in there) there was a Greek Taverna restaurant in the Dolphin run by Tony (Toniponi) who moved on to the Colombia Tavern - I used to go there for lunch in the 80s when I working for Matthews Transport on the Fishwharf - I could tell stories about a lot of the pubs in this tour - happy days!!
You and Gaby make a great double act - Really enjoying working my way through your library Tim.
Glad you enjoy it!
Even the Starlings know that sunset is the best time to come out. This was an ace walk down memory lane.
Thanks for watching Michael
Tim...Gabby...I was born in Barking (east London) seventy odd years ago and growing up in those early years our parents used to take us kids up to pubs with them where they would keep an eye on us and keep us plied with fizzy drink and crisps or had biscuits called dog biscuits back in the day and one of the pubs in Barking was called the Yarmouth smack. Years later I married a Yarmouth woman and moving to live in Yarmouth I discovered that there was a pub called the Barking smack..Anyway, to cut a long story short, there is a link and that is where Barking had a large fishing fleet to service London and it was common for both Barking and Yarmouth fishing fleets to link up an fish for herring and to mark the events both had public houses built honoring the occasion
No way I never knew that... you learn something new everyday.. My dad always tells me about when he was a kid how he sat in the car with a coke and crisps whilst his mum and dad went in the pub... how times have changed hey x
wow
Interesting stuff, harks back to fishing boats being called "Smacks".
You missed out the talbot this was my favourite pub back in the late eighties early nineties. Great memories of a great juke box and radar love always playing😎👍
I live in the old white lion, if you’d like to see inside, let me know and I’ll send you some photos of my place, it’s separated up into several apartments. It was built in the 1600’s and there are some period features. Even a window in the wall panelling exposing some of the painting on the wall which is hundreds of years old.
I still laugh when Gaby comes strolling by. Still one of my favorites Tim. 😂
Lol
I visited Great Yarmouth back in the early 80d and I went to one these wonderful pubs and can’t remember the name of it.
The Gunner and the Iron Duke has very happy memories for me !
:-)
Love your pub crawl video Tim that you did with Gaby 2 yrs ago.There were some interesting pubs in Gt Yarmouth that have sadly shut.Sadly the coronavirus killed some of the pub trade as you probably know.Irs the same in Hull.There are some fab pubs and architecture in Gt Yarmouth, love the video Tim,thankyou.
Kings Arms GY. Great food, wonderful outside seating and a glass of what you fancy. Magnificent. Not to forget the friendly and helpful staff
:-)
My parents used to be the landlords for flints and I lived there for 6 years! Definitely one of the more interesting designed pubs
Agree brett
Missing my Yarmouth visits due to lockdown, which usually involves a beer or several. Roll on 29th March when I can hit the A47 and visit what has sort of become my second home
lets hope so Simon
Done my best every Monday back in the 90’s to go into most of them 😂
Haha love it
lol
Good for you, how's your liver ? I went to the Drs about mine, he recommended 2 pound of onions.
I love sitting outside the barking smack and the marine on a warm sunny day..just watching everyone go by...and then on the evening going to the prince regent for live music...will be there end of may..hope they all open.😎😎😎😎😎
me too Matthew
Great upload...love your stuff...you kept me updated on all the seaside resorts last summer through a very dark period in my life..(I had a spinal op)..I will be in yarmouth may this year...cant wait to see all the lovely places...and meet all the wonderful nor-folk..thanks.😎😊😎😊
@@matthewballard6399 sorry to hear that Matthew im glad my videos have brought some joy
Great video guys! Can't wait to resume my regular pub crawls in Yarmouth, so many excellent, and characterful pubs, many offering a pint of excellent real ale for well under £3. Keep up the good work!
Sounds great!
Just trying to catch up with your fascinating videos. Looking back...how on earth can you relate to doing a pub crawl in Great Yarmouth 3 years ago, to staying at a top Abu Dhabi hotel and flying 'first class' on your recent ones? A great channel Tim, Gabby and your 'mini-Tim'. 🥰👍
The Dolphin pub closed in 2008, was built by local architect JW Cockerill, he patented the decorative work, bricks over concrete and white decorative tiles, the pub started to go into decline after the 1950s and never recovered.
He also rebuilt the Winter Gardens, moved it from Torquay without breaking a single window!
Thanks Scott
I love this video. I have family in Yarmouth and I think they’ve lived, and/or worked in nearly every pub in Yarmouth, certainly up until 2010-ish.
thanks !
Really good. Lived in Yarmouth in the 80's and it brought back wonderful memories. Well done👍
You're welcome allen
Fantastic video guys. Such an interesting array of pubs. You should definitely do a multi day pub crawl to cover them all off and call it ‘save our great British pub crawl’ or something. You and Gabby make a great presenting team!
lol when they ope we will do one lol
I remember The Silk Mills, which was obliquely opposite Sainsbury's....I THINK it turned into a Chinese takeaway a few years back.
Miss my hometown, thank you for reminding me of the best place to grow up, big shout out to all my fellow locals :)
Really enjoyed the video Tim and Gaby. I've done a couple of GY pub crawls over the years, one starting at the Apollo tavern in Northgate street and finishing 19 pubs later at the Pub on the Prom. Second one, the following summer, was 15 new pubs, starting at the Kings Arms Northgate Street and finishing in the Albion. One drink in each and the walk between some far enough to help burn off some of the alcohol 😂. As for the New Royal Standard, back in the '80's it was 'Sinatra's for a while. 👍🏼
We come to Yarmouth on holiday every year, never knew there was so many pubs in the town, Great video
thanks Jeff
Anyone remember where Tipplers was? Somewhere off Regent Road, south side?
I can’t believe that what you’re showing was a years ago!!! Not a year ago, the “Bricklayers “ has been turned into flats years ago... I must admit probably 30 odd years ago..! I And friends 👫 visited several of these pubs on our nights out, their were a few pubs you didn’t mention, maybe they were way before both of your time... The Bird cage, The Brunswick, it had another small bar down the stairs, It was the place of “punks “, “ Gothics”, And “Metal heads”, I spent many a good few hours In this place,over the weekend s,..Oh it was great, I actually felt freedom there-, well I’m now almost 55 in a couple of months, my inner goth is still their, my metal head is inside to, life was good and safe, I sound like a sad old bag now..but We all hit the dance floor when the music was playing..Goths-Punks-metal heads- I loved my life in them days!!!, I guess getting older the feelings are still their, but the face, and hair have left the building many years ago!!!, watching this video tonight was a really good pick me up!!!🐾🦊🙏🙏❤️x
im glad, thanks for watching
This is absolutely fantastic! A perfect idea for a lockdown stroll. Thank you so much for sharing. Very entertaining too!
Lots of memories 🙂
Thank you very much!
Interesting vlog, pubs are usually the nicer buildings in a street. Do another town?
Hollo grby and Tim fromAndrewmay in Yarmouth
Loved this! Lots of memories of pub crawling in the 90s in Yarmouth
thanks for watching Gavin
Thanks again for another wonderful video. It's always so nice to spend time watching the world go by. : )
Have u actually watched the video rather than the start lol
The "Monks" are "Friars" pub was called the "Blackfriars Arms" ..... The "Royal Standard" used to be called "Sinartras" .......
Would like to walk the town with you one day, and show you all the pubs you probably didn't know about (lots that still look like pubs too!
Also "Lacons Brewery" was originally on the site of "lidl" today, and I'm pretty sure there is still an emblem in the wall at back of car park, that pays homage to the site!
By the way, I'm not a pub goer really, but also drove a taxi in the town 30 plus years ago!
And the "Murmaration" of starling's you saw, were probably grouping to roost in Kent square, near Flints bar.
If you have never been there after dark, I think you will be amazed at the many thousands of birds that roost in those few trees, and the noise they make all night long!
Won't say anything about the droppings! Haha!
Interesting stuff!
Lol thanks for sharing ray
Oh my it’s got to be one of my best you tube great memories of all times to you both 👍🏻many of those pubs I was in when I moved up here 1977 but was still under aged drinker .I used to actually be cleaner at the two necked swan 🦢 gabby with les in charged with running the place ..wasn’t fan of back to back as drugs den .but most all ok ..👍🏻..iron dukes pub closed many years with couple times my hubby had drink in there .good news someone bought up to actually do something with it ..I thank you so much for the greatest times of our Yarmouth pubs 😂🥰😘
Thanks vonnie
Good tour of Yarmouth pubs Tim, perfect timing in a way as I had a delivery of Adnams Beers and Gin to my home on Friday.
Boom ... lol
Just love your walks Tim. I now live away from home and it is just great to be able to wander round town with you ...so thank you sooo much for all the videos ....I was born and bred in Cobholm in 1946 ...how about doing a walk round there....would love to see my old home and how it must have changed .....
You are very welcome thanks for the tip Valerie
I love The Troll Cart, especially the beer garden, it's great for a spot of people watching on Reagents Road! The Empire is very spectacular inside and well worth a visit! You should pick your favourites and do a video pub crawl, now that they are open!
I loved the tour of the pubs. A lovely video. you both are great.
Thanks Shirley
I love the barking smack nice cider 😊 after a walk round Yarmouth x
Ali we need a drink in there together x
@@GabyStarbuckx we certainly do sounds like a plan x

Hi Tim just been watching all your videos on great yarmouth , fantastic love them. We are visiting great great yarmouth in a couple of weeks and you have definitely given us inspiration of the whole of Yarmouth thanks
Kim and Geoff from tantobie in county Durham xxx
Another great vid. Tim and gaby a lot of haunted pubs around yarmouth
Thanks KKrispy I bet they’re all haunted lol x
I know 😱
The first pub was the Nelson!
??
@@WalkWithMeTim Not the sports bar
Love your videos. I moved away from Yarmouth in my 20s and these are a huge nostalgia trip for me
Thanks geraldine
Very interesting 👍🍻 I used to live next door to The Colonel H pub in the 80s when I was very young.
Interesting!
The Apollo used to have a swimming pool of sorts, a huge tub for kids to splash around in whilst mum and dad enjoyed a few drinks.
Wow sounds great
Superb.. Really enjoyed that.. Great job..
Thanks david
Another great video 😃 I did not realise Gt Yarmouth had so many - and they look nice in the sunshine with the varied signs and styles! I wonder how many will survive post lockdown...
Impressive starling murmuration!
I know ... beautiful
Great vid. My old haunt was "The Oakwood" Howard Street-many memories
thanks for watching Tracy
Great video! I had a great night in the Galleon Pot! and The Lion is great as well.
Lovely pub ... maybe one day I'll go bck
That was a stunning murmuration of Starlings.
I thought so!
Thank you so much for this Tim and Gabby, brought back so many memories having been born and raised in Great Yarmouth. I was hoping you would go over Haven bridge and take a look at the Two Bears and into the old Cobholm area and see the Lady Haven , the there’s the Star Hotel on North Quay. Maybe another time ? Xx
Yeh thought about but stayed this side of the river as its great yarmouth
The two bears is now Hughes and the rocket opposite is now kfc and something else.
Fantastic video and very entertaining love the scooter bit at beginning and end.
lol thanks Daryl
Ahh! Dancing on the tables outside the marine pub to U4IA back in the summer of 96... Good times.
Lol
Thank you Tim and Gaby, I enjoyed your trip around Gt Yarmouth and the pubs. I enjoyed seeing the old ones. I have been into the Pier Tavern in the 90s as they were doing karaoke one evening. I have been in the Market Tavern, nice and olde worlde, the spoons a couple of times for breakfast or dinners. Last time I went to Yarmouth was a day trip with my grown up kids in April for the sea life centre.
Thanks for the comment means a lot
Did you manage to get on the karaoke at the Pier Tavern Debby? X
@@GabyStarbuckx actually no, they took so long and there was a disco as well I decided to leave and they called my name just as I was leaving it was a long time ago.
@@Amileo350 more fool them for dragging their heels.. they might of been missing out on something fab x
The St Johns Head is my favourite one, followed by the Trollcart, Britannia Pier 2 pubs, the White Swan, Barking Smack, Marine Tavern,
Maybe we will do this pub crawl x
@@GabyStarbuckx I have a pint of Cranberry juice if i m driving.......
@@johnmasters504 cranberry juice is very healthy so well done to you x
agree but maybe not in that order lol
Gaby is fast becoming a star on the channel with her endearing personality, but we still need Tim, to keep an eye on how much she is drinking haha. Great video as always.
Lol
😂 I love this thank you.. xx
he drinks more than me though lol no joke lol x
@@GabyStarbuckx theres alot of pubs and a lot of walking wear flats gaby
@@martinmee8398 😂😂 i had my trainers on this day thankfully x
@@GabyStarbuckx yes good job when did u do a pub crawl in high heels and did u keep them on all night
Some charming pubs in Great Yarmouth. I love most types of architecture. I am not much of a architecture snob.
Lol
Great video and very interesting!! Very sad and poigniant to see the old pubs boarded up and can only imagine their heydays! Notice how some buildings can't stand not sheltering life? Thanks for the insight!!🍻🍻
You're welcome
Really interesting walk. Thanks
Glad you enjoyed it
Your welcome x
I live in yarmouth and great to see all the old pubs again
Thanks for watching Gregory
Great video, Tim - I expect that sadly many of those pubs didn’t open up after Covid. I expect they needed all those pubs for all the mariners when they came in off the sea!
What a great idea very interesting 👍
Glad you liked it
Was there another pub nearby The Dolphin on the main road? as there's an old abandoned pub sign near it.
did I miss that
@@WalkWithMeTim If you go to Google Earth's Street view, you can see it in the main road next to them demolising the area.
Unless it's a sign for the Dolphin, but it's pretty far away.
Hi there, thanks for this cool video
Skol !! 🍻
Thanks jorge
1st one also used to be a cafe. Used to have breakfast and roll into the pub next door. We called it the birdcage
thanks John
Yeah I remember the cafe too, in front conservatory area!
Used to work at "Auto Windscreens" corner of Salmon road!
been here just over a year now need to see some of these pubs open
agree Peter
Hi! Tim. A good idea for when I next Visit! Great Yarmouth for a "Road down memory lane" visit.
Sounds great!
Good utaliising the lockdown to record all the pub's as more difficult when open as too tempting to go in for drinks .
Agree
Beautiful place.
Lol
Snuck into the second pub very interesting and underground hotel area
ooooh
The Penny Flyer or the Penny Farthing (if i recall) is the name of the one next to Albert Square...I used to go there after work at the dolphin Hote l( which is now under a new name)...And food for thought, I used to live with Jason Staham's brother Lee and his wife Michelle circa 1984.... They lived near Brittanica Pier....Also worked with Jason briefly when I lodged with Lee and Michelle at his dads lock up:-)
thanks for watching John
Enjoyed your vidio tim and Gaby ,amazing pubs ,alot so old ,bet so many story's and untold behind some of them ,you had body snatchers graves things like that(see Tim's holloween special it's scary history )so be good find more history and storys alot of pubs featured Tim ,Andy Halifax
Absolutely Andy... I badly wanted to go inside when they open we will x
Glad you enjoyed it Andy!
Liked this video before I even watched it. 🍻👍
Legend!
Great video. Would love to return and re-visit some memories some day.
Thanks for watching
I lived in the dukes head for five years its definitely not haunted and you went past tombstone saloon bar it has its own brewery attached.
I think the pub behind Carlton hotel was penny whistle or penny farthing, also think there was a pub for everyday of the year at one time.
just heard that .. thanks carl
It was the Penny Farthing
Penny Farthing, yep!
The Pub behind the Carlton was Called Shades (Ye Olde Shades) before it became a series of bars into the Carlton all branded Penny Farthing. In the 70s we used to have a couple in the before heading onto the seafront on a Friday night! - happy days!
@@rayhoughton5551 Thanks for watching ray
Yarmouth is awesome.....
agree
Hi Tim & Gabi. Just seen your pub crawl. Doing it when they're open will cost a fortune. Marie
Lol defo
I brought a house in st Georges Road in September smack bang in the middle of most of the pubs😁 I just need the buggers to open now!!
Ha ha ha
I was wondering if you’d spot The Avenue! I live one road away from it, haha!
lol
It's funny because when people ask for directions they usually use pubs as markers, but I'm like you Tim I don't really drink so when someone says is that near such and such pub I say sorry but I'm not very good with pubs.
Lol excellent point
hi iam good iam cameing down to Yarmouth in a couple of weeks time and the pub that you said is the pair tavern on the sea front is the best pub in Yarmouth , plus I will let you know we go for a drink I will let you both know when I be there 👍💐🍷📱🤗🍺
Have fun!
Some lovely looking pubs how dead is it! Lockdown don’t remind me. I bet Gabby would of had a couple of reds if they were open and why not thoroughly enjoyed cheers both happy Friday 🍷
Happy Friday Tracey
All of these pubs have such interesting stories . The one with the graves is so intriguing to me . Love to know more about that one. Quite charming all of them. Each one has a story I ‘m sure? Loved to see the inside sometime Tim. Maybe you could do that when they are open again.
We are planning a pub crawl live when they open lol
@@WalkWithMeTim I will be walking or should I say crawling with you Tim. Can’t wait for that!! This was such a great idea and I loved the old buildings. Such stories to be told I’m sure .😀
Lol lol
The graves next to the "Recruiting Sargent" now called "The Recruit" are non Christian burials, and go back to a time (medieval) when the Great Yarmouth wall was intact and surrounded the town, these were people of non Christian denominations, who were not allowed to be buried within the town walls!
Part of the pub is in fact the old town wall, at the back of the stones, and so that spot is outside of the old town boundary!
@@norfolknchance.500 thanks Ray for the back story on the graves.
Wow what a beautiful blue sky!! Loved the bits with you 2 on the scooter - you could start a comedy double act. Really enjoyed watching. Btw where is that boardwalk right at the end? It looked lovely😊😊
thanks Bridgette that's at the very end of the prom near the waterways
Haha thanks Bridgette I was laughing so much at that z
@@WalkWithMeTim Thanks, deffo gonna check it out when we visit next 😊
Good morning from Western Australia. Perth. didn't know you were in lockdown.
Lol
My mum knows most of the pubs in Yarmouth has she goes every year in June for the famous Nottingham weekend
@KarenLewin...If your Mum comes down for the 'Nottingham Weekend' she probably drinks in my local the 'Oliver Twist'...and is probably friends with Flossy and Dawn? lol
@@garethfreeman3436 yeah she is they are coming in June 25th for Nottingham weekend is oliver twist still open
thanks for watching Karen
maybe
You missed The Lady Haven, The Litchfield Arms, The Windmill, The Rumbold Arms and The Haven Bridge pub
We missed them because we only did one side of the bridge I doubt we’d of coped with Southtown and cobholm all in one afternoon x
@@GabyStarbuckx Oh, I see, cheers. I loved the video. 👍
@@salamanda9 aww fantastic hopefully we can do the others soon xx
lol
thank for clearing that up gaby
Ah the Dolphin, and the Iron Duke are my fave former pubs. And the old Malakoff down Nelson Road.
I really wish I’d discovered the dolphin before it shut I think I’d of loved that pub
@@GabyStarbuckx So do I. Never knew it existed until a year ago, and I am almost 40. Caister still has some great pubs such as Never Turn Back, Cenny (Centurion) and Kings Arms and The Ship.
@@Uksoapfan yeah caister is great x
wish we could have gone in the dolphin
@@GabyStarbuckx Do you remember Terry and Julie Baines who frequented Caister pubs and who lived down Webster Way in Caister? I worked with Terry years ago.
We do the pub golf, 9 in Yarmouth, 9 in Gorleston.
Haha love it
nice
Oh I forgot to mention, I liked the Lord Roberts down Northagte Street, near the maternity block at Northgate Hospital where I came into this world. And the pub opposite the Kings Arms at the other end of Northgate St, I think The White Horse, near the Cox jewellers.
Nice one benjamin
Hi Tim, great video, gives me an idea for my next Vlog in st Neots. Cheers Andy
Thanks for watching
St Neots had some great pubs....
Hi Gaby and Tim
Hi Richard
@@WalkWithMeTim we've got rain in Newquay
Great trip down memory lane. Best pub late 70’s The Talbot. Scary stairs to the toilets when you’d had a few drinks. Could you do the same video in Gorleston?
Thanks andrea
Where was the Talbot? X
@@GabyStarbuckx Howard Street North on the corner of the short road which took you to the back of Woolworths. There was a bakery on the opposite corner and the police station further up on the same side of the road
The Talbot, that brings back memories! Haha!
Wasn't there another pub next door, or am I dreaming!?
There was a door to Woolworths there then too!
Only just found this video. Did you ever do the follow up where you were going to do a pub crawl when they opened back up? Would love to see that.
Great content keep it up, even better when Gaby joins you 😊
Not yet
I was upset that the Europa restaurant closed down. Back in the early 90s I'd always order the omelette when I went there with my family whilst we stayed at Seashore Holiday Park.
Thanks for watching
Was the first pub you looked at was it on South Denes, if so I think it was opposite the old camp site and it was once called Lord Nelson pub.
not sure
Yes it was, and the "Birdcage" if you remember that!? I even remember the campsite and the "Harbour Lights" club on there!
God I'm old! Haha!
What I class as a pub is one that sells real ale , and I endeavor to visit ones that do, if there is NO real ale I will have one pint of Guiness, eg The Brittania
lol
Do you remember the old Yarmouth beer festivals?
I remember the first one at Vauxhall camp, still got my entry pint glass, that's first time I tried "Jakes old and musty!" Haha!
Friars a would say. 👍🏻
boom
