Social Buddies' Favourite People
As a respected Norwich social group, Social Buddies has developed good working relationships, over the years, with a number of local businesses and organisations.
We are happy to give recognition here to our favourite people, places and venues that have supported us over the years (and hopefully felt supported by us in return).
The legendary Dawn!

Norwich Bear is a micro brewery run by Dawn and Kevin Hopkins, and supplying beer to their two pubs - The Rose and The Ketts Hill Tavern.
Dawn is by far our favourite quiz mistress in Norwich (we think her quizzes are legendary), and her beer is extremely drinkable too. Little known fact: Dawn is also a Jedi Master in her use of Facebook in raising the profile of her pubs.
James and the lads
Garden House pub, Pembroke Road, Norwich

James, and his unfailingly helpful team, runs the Garden House pub in the middle of the Golden Triangle.
A brilliant quiz, run by the very strict Quizmaster Clegg, a friendly vibe, a new food menu plus a very large, stunning garden. A drink at dusk, as the lights twinkle on gives a quite magical feel.
