“The Dukes Head strikes me as a place steeped in King's Lynn's history, recently enhanced by significant refurbishment. I envision enjoying a cocktail in Massey & Co bar after exploring the nearby True's Yard Fisherfolk Museum. While the location puts you within easy reach of town and coastline, potential noise and parking costs seem worth considering.”
