My boyfriend and I came to Aylsham for May BH weekend. We visited the Black Boys on the first night (due to reviews on TripAdvisor), but had to wait a little too long for a table. Went back on the Sat evening and got a table (we were slightly after the kitchen closed and Chef still served us). Meal was... More

Twelve of us called here for lunch. Food was fine with a good choice and service very friendly. Not a lot more I can say about the place. Marginally better than the average pub/hotel fare, hence four rather than three stars from me, and I would recommend it for lunch if in the area

The Black Boys is everything an authentic English pub should be - it dates back to the 1600's so has bags of character (I'm sure it must have a ghost or two), it looks charming and is set in the market square of Aylsham so is always busy with an eclectic mix of locals and visitors. We had booked to... More

We are local to Norfolk, and have known about the Black Boys Hotel in Aylsham, with its various landlord tenancies, for almost half a century.

(we had just walked out of another local hotel when we were shown the room) But this time I smiled with great delight at this imposing Grade II listed bedroom. The room wasn't huge but pleasantly decorated, well appointed with a massive solid wooden bed, pristine white bed linen and luxurious duck duvet... More

Just back from two nights here and it was fantastic. The food is unbelievable, good quality and lots of it! Room was small/cosy but perfectly acceptable for a good night's sleep. It's in a good location for exploring north Norfolk and wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to anyone staying in the area.

The staff and food at this hotel are very good. Nothing seems to much trouble for the staff and they tried to accommodate all our requests. The weekend we stayed was great fun as they were lighting up the Christmas Tree in the Square and everyone seemed to be gathering in the hotel afterwards. Lovely atmosphere. The food was exceptionally... More

We stayed in nearby Reepham in June this year and were recommended to visit the Black Boys Hotel for something to eat. What can i say, it was fantastic, it was a warm Summer evening and we were so glad we had booked. From the welcome we received when we entered to the gorgeous food, it was a gastronomic delight....
