Exelby Green Dragon

We stayed at the Exelby Green Dragon for one night as a stopover between Inverness and Norfolk. Our King deluxe room was very clean and was lovely and cosy. It was furnished with some nice furniture and soft furnishings. We were amazed how quiet it was even with a bar full of customers below. The shower room was lovely and clean and the shower was hot. The staff were very friendly and helpful.

Smooth check-in with friendly staff. The pub was clean and well maintained. Evening menu suited our needs after a long day. Bedroom was clean and tidy. Local outside temperature was around 3 degrees so asked if the room temperature could be tweeked and it was. Breakfast was plentiful and hot. One fact we discovered was it was a "Community" owned pub! A great credit to the locals who have made it work!

The food ( we had lunch, evening meal and breakfast) was excellent throughput. Everything was good quality product and was cooked so well. The blt I had for lunch was the vest I've ever had, and the twice fried chips were out of this world! The room was very comfortable, cosy , clean and well equipped. Probably the best part of the stay, though, wre the staff. They were all friendly, helpful and made us feel really welcome throughout the stay. It's a place we will remember very fondly and will return to when we're in the area. Excellent all round and highly recommended!

The room was spacious and comfortable, with a useful seating area which is very uncommon. Usually you find a relatively small room and end up watching TV sitting on the bed. This was very different - soacious and we’ll laid out. Evening meal and breakfast were both excellent, and the selection of beers was refreshing - rather than the usual choice of interchangeable “premium lagers” and Doom Bar, there was a fantastic range of beers of all sorts on tap, and in cans/bottles. Great to see.

I recently stayed at the Exelby Green Dragon but had to head out early for a meeting, so I missed the breakfast. Even though my visit was short, the place felt really welcoming and cosy. Everyone working there was super friendly, giving the whole place a relaxed, family vibe. I did get to try the dinner, and the homemade pie was brilliant – definitely a highlight. They’ve also got a great range of real ales, which I appreciated. If you’re looking for a laid-back spot with good food and drink, this is it. I’d definitely recommend it if you’re in the area.
