Orford packs quite a punch for a small village and benefits from two fine public houses, The Jolly Sailor and The King’s Head, a smokery, Pinneys, a school, two well-known restaurants, The Butley Oysterage and The Crown & Castle, as well as a thriving village shop, a butcher, a farmers’ market, a newsagent and the rather fabulous Pump Street Bakery.
