The Masons Arms in Norham, England

The Masons Arms houses a traditional restaurant serving full English breakfasts, vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free options. Dinner menus include locally sourced lamb, beef, and fresh fish, with a popular Sunday roast offering three courses for £18.50. The bar offers a selection of real ales such as Timothy Taylor's, while the restaurant is closed on Thursdays - a local fish and chip van visits the village that evening.
