Any News On Berney Arms

[NorfolkNog]

I'm getting confused too (not difficult) 

And yes, most likely Bob's informants put 2 and 2 together and got 5

Charlie, it does appear that the old shop/cafe is separate from the pub & vice versa and now it appears that both outlets will be selling booze over the weekend. Berney, clarification please.

[Bound2Please]

Thats not good really for either/both of them if this is the case Peter....

Charlie, reading this whole thread it does seems to indicate that the two outlets are separate and as Charlie suggests not good for either outlet. I assume that the shop has an 'off' licence so if the weather is bad, like it is right now, then I suspect that customers will head for the pub. I can't see the pub not serving food, not in this day and age, ohh dear. I like the sound of what is on offer at the shop so feel some sympathy for 'Berney' & his partner.

over on facebook, they are saying they will only have a licence at weekends, and the cafe will be open the rest of the time:-

The Berney Arms is open this weekend for the first time in years for Beers and BBQ, access by boat train or foot only. 

Berney Arms Yes...cafe open from now on....alcohol weekends only

I really can't remember for sure but I'm pretty certain it's on the bank. 

Thanks Peter

Well I can safely say there is no rave going on. So let's can that one. 

Not had a chance to go check it out yet, but will do in the morning. 

Wife spoke to them earlier and they seemed like a nice couple trying to earn a living. Hope the trade picks up though.

Very few boats here today/tonight. In fact a lot of moorings on the way down from brundall were empty. Even the reedham ferry and reedham itself. Think the weather has scuppered a lot people going out. 

They need some decent weather to kick start the business. 

[Berneyarms]

Well what a thoroughly perfect evening ...locals , marshmen , walkers and a few boaters ...no rave unfortunately...but at least now a few more people have met us and....proof of the puddin.boy...

[Berneyarms]

Let's ave a little clear up....there is only one group involved on the whole berney site ..that is us..we have done up the cafe as a licensed bar and will be moving on to the pub soon...nice to see the gossip evolving among the boating community without any boaters...come and see us on face value...remember what I said at the start of all this ..we are here to save the pub and it's history and our heart is placed firmly on berney soil.. wot you a rekonin boy 

[Gracie]

I'm rekonin boy that you're doing a grand job, keep up the good work and as soon as we are back on the Broads will be with you like a shot

All our Best Wishes to you BerneyArms, It's nice to see something positive happening here.

We will be calling in when we are down in September (would come next week but the tides aren't favourable)

Here's to a great season

[Chelsea14Ian]

Anyone who can save or improve pubs gets my vote.Well done and hope to see you when we can

[Jbx5]

Good luck with your plans, always good to have stop and a few beers here after a long stretch on the water.

I cant like your earlier clear up post (I'm not allowed to like posts at the moment away a week and it breaks???).m But thanks for the clear up as I can see one business succeeding with a lot of hard work and promoting, but not two separate ones.  We will indeed come and see you when tides are ok and steering fixed.

@Berneyarms.. hi there.. I have been following on facebook.. sounds a fun project. Sadly ive never stopped there and sadly our.mooring is too far out the way.. but possibly one day. The boaters have your support! But as im sure you know theres been a lot happening there and its hard to work out.. have you acquired the pub? Last I saw i was up for sale at an extortionate price as to hope to turn it into another use? We had a couple members interested but due to its no land access rules, sadly getting the figures to add up makes it hard..

Not a problem Charlie

It's nice to hear the old place is back up and running. Is this long term or a short term? Or just for the holiday season? Sorry for all the questions. I mean what will be on offer for us boaters is there beers and lagers on tap? Hot and cold food? Pub grub or rolls and nibbles?. It would be nice to hear some feed back from boaters over the weekend what they thought of the old place? 

[Hylander]

I am hoping they will be so busy they wont have time to reply and that will be a fantastic result.     I wish them all the best.
