The one performance you cannot miss.

After ten years of bringing you locally sourced tales of blood and bone and wild romance the Punch House Band have decided to hang up our hats. It's been ten great years and we've loved every minute but the time has come for us to retreat to our secret underground cavern there to lay ourselves down to sleep for a thousand years. When Norfolk's need is greatest we will awaken and ride to her defence, for so it is written. Before go we thought we'd have a bit of a knees-up first so please come and join us at the Artichoke Public House, Magdalen Street, Norwich on the evening of Friday 27th November for one last gig so we can say thank you :)

PIE & BLUES! 🥧🎸

The Pie Guys are taking over the kitchen next Thursday for our regular blues night with Steve Morphew

Expect delicious, hearty, homemade pies with classic fillings and a few curve balls (personal fave is the lamb curry 😋) veggie & vegan options available

Dave Thomas will be fronting the incredible Fine City Blues band featuring a plethora of talented musicians including the showstoppingly brilliant James Goodwin on keys.

Music starts at 8PM and will be inside since it's getting a little chilly!
