Obviously, you all know that tonight is our quiz night this month, and this means that there are no free seats inside the pub, but the beer garden is available for those in need of a long cool drink. The next quiz night will be June 30th.

First Thursday of each month beginning 4th June 7 pm. Our folk sessions welcome everyone, from the curious to the experienced. You don't have to sing or play an instrument. And you don't have to play an instrument to sing. You can just bring yourself and come along to listen.

Folk music, put simply, is music of the people, for the people and by the people. It is ordinary people sharing the songs that matter to them. Songs about life back then. Songs about now Songs to move you. Songs to make you think.

Great Yarmouth has a rich tradition of folk music. Folk singers such as Sam Larner and Harry Cox hail from these parts. We think it's time to bring it back.

Now's the time for singing. A GY Folk night. https://www.blackfriarstavern.co.uk/folk-music-nights-at-the-blackfriars-tavern/

The last of this year's brew of Lacon's Brewers Series Chris was delivered by Chris himself last week, and it's on this week, get it before it goes!

Vibrant and zesty, this cloudy wheat beer is packed with flavour and backs it up with a full mouthfeel. Soft on bitterness this is a very quaffable spring treat. Vegan friendly!

New on the bar: 27 April 2026 · 5% ABV · Sparkling Medium Cider

There's a particular kind of joy that arrives with the first proper sunshine of the year — and we've timed our latest draught addition perfectly. Meet Nirvana by Tricky Cider: a sparkling medium cider from the Somerset Levels that more than earns its name.

A picture of a half pint of Nirvana (a sparkling real cider available at the Blackfriars Tavern Great Yarmouth)

What Is Nirvana?

Nirvana is a 5% ABV sparkling medium cider made by Tricky Cider at Netherham Farm, Low Ham, near Langport in Somerset. It arrived on the bar here at Blackfriars on 24 April 2026 — and if you've been putting up with industrial keg cider, this is the wake-up call you didn't know you needed.

Clean and crisp on the pour, it has that characteristic Somerset snap: a blend of bittersweet and bittersharp apples giving it genuine tannin structure and balanced acidity. Medium-sweet without ever becoming cloying.
