About This Pub
Ah, The Coachmakers Arms – it's one of those pubs that just warms your cockles the moment you walk in. I've heard from folks who've popped in that the staff and regulars are an absolute delight, always up for a chat and making newcomers feel part of the gang. The live music and karaoke nights sound like a proper laugh, drawing in a crowd that loves a singalong or a bit of toe-tapping entertainment. Plus, the drinks are fairly priced, and that cheeky parrot Billie is a fun surprise that adds real character to the place. On the flip side, it's a shame there's no website to look up the latest goings-on, which might make it harder for out-of-towners to plan ahead. And while it's got that genuine community feel, it might not suit everyone if you're after something a tad more modern or less chatty. All in all, it's a solid choice for a pint and some good times, especially if you're in Great Yarmouth and fancy a spot with heart.

The landlady and all the staff are so welcoming and friendly and Billie the parrot is the highlight of the pub and the karaoke due are brilliant
We stumbled in here just to get out of the rain. We received a warm welcome, and the lady behind the bar was lovely. We don't know the area, but we were chatting to most of the people in there who helped us find our way. We had a lovely pint too.
Best pub in Great Yarmouth. Friendly staff. Community pub. Atmosphere is fantastic. Live music Wednesday. Saturday and Sundays. The regular singer Ivan is a must see if you like music from the 50s onwards .
Drinks are reasonable.
You won't be disappointed.
Very welcoming pub with really friendly landlady and customers. Primarily there for real ale I wasn’t disappointed. Serving 2 fine examples from the Tombstone Brewery
Brilliant place to go for Karaoke and Live Music. This has been my local for around five years now and hopefully many more to come, lovely staff and lovely customers we've never felt uncomfortable or unwelcome here, we moved up here from Romford Essex back in 2019, after frequenting most of the boozers around here I can honestly say it's one of the best puns around here. Drinks are reasonably priced and always something going on, they have bingo too.
