The Nags Head

Walk into the Nags Head and you're walking into the sort of place where regulars have their spots and the staff remember your name by drink two. It's the kind of pub that doesn't need to try too hard—honest beer selection, solid food that won't disappoint, and that warmth you get when a place actually belongs to its neighbourhood rather than playing at it. Orford Road's got plenty going on these days, but this spot's held its own by doing the basics brilliantly: keeping the drinks flowing, the kitchen consistent, and the vibe genuinely welcoming whether you're in for a quick pint or settling in for the evening.
