Pub in Norwich

“Can’t believe we’ve never been here before! The staff were so friendly and the food was delicious – decent portion sizes and good prices! We came here for lunch and would happily return to experience what it’s like in the evening.”

“Absolute mad house, kids loved it. If you like sipping a pint, and be between a scarlet macaw and a parakeet having a sound battle, this is the place to go. Great place for a very generous meal, and for the kids to be entertained. My only, only recommendation is they get some bigger tables in. I was surprised for such a spacious place they didn't have many tables suitable for parties or 5+, and there is so much room for it.”

“Great food. Came early with my children. Portions were decent and the whole meal was priced reasonably.”

“Great food huge portions couldn’t eat it all, Beautiful restaurant inside and out. well worth a visit if you are in lowestoft”

“Didn't eat food, so can't comment. First ever visit to this pub for a live music gig on Saturday. Great atmosphere, amazing wall of fascinating rock posters. Good drinks from the bar. Friendly staff and locals. A wooden dance floor area was a real bonus. Brilliant, fun night with the talented Glamtastics. We'll certainly go to this great venue again.”

“One of the best pubs in the city, typically great beers and always unusual ones even if they're not your thing, no Stella here thankfully. Always playing a good playlist and the staff have never been anything but kind and generous.”

“Had a fantastic time at The Ocean Rooms on Saturday watching Andy Ottley. Really nice club. Staff are friendly and helpful. Food was good.”

“Went to the first of their Rainbow LGBTQ+ Nights and I've gotta say, felt safe and had a great time. Perfect mix of banging tunes and classic cheese too!”

“Strangely located attached to a garden centre, but don't let that put you off. Seating and tables were basic but adequate. Staff were all friendly and accommodating. I had the mixed grill and I have never seen so much meat on a plate, and it was all excellently cooked...my medium steak was actually cooked as medium too. We were a group of 18 people having various dishes, and all had plenty and all enjoyed their meals. I would definitely go again and I would make sure I was just as hungry beforehand as I was on this occasion.”

“I just got back from darts tournament was proud of how well I played to was proud that I beat a very good top class player like josh pinder 4_1 in our group he however went on to the final where he unfortunately lost in a cracking final to a guy called john who's name I've forgot sorry but I played really well for first attempt at this tournament so very happy as I won my group .thanks to everyone there for being so nice & friendly Cheer's guys & girls”

“Fantastic night Saturday! Great friendly atmosphere, and your little barmaid with the really short dark hair is a huge asset to you. Every round she asked me "are they doubles? Save you coming back to the bar so quick" who could resist that stunning cracking smile that melts ya, doubles they were, we fell for it everytime, and if we did, so did others! Haha! Superb night! Thank you. See you all next year.”

“Excellent service wonderful fresh ingredients we went for the Portuguese ‘tapas’ … try the marinated sardines superb!!”

“Fantastic place really nice and spacious cottages great play area lovely swimming pool and fishing lakes”

“If you’re after real ale then for me this is the best boozer in town. Attleborough doesn’t offer much to be fair so choices are limited. To do like the feel of the Tavern, proper nice boozer”

“Tap takeover by Ossett brewery! Brilliant!! Great beer in a great pub.”

“Great food and service. Loving whats been done at Reds & just what Fakenham needed. Have used the takeway and restaurant, both have been fantastic. Hughky really recommend giving Red's a try if you haven't already!”

“Ooo…lovely!! The Urban Lounge is super chill and the food is beautiful. I have wanted to make a trip here for some time and I wasn’t disappointed. The black pudding and beans have a nice and spicy dash of flavour which I’m a fan of. I’ll definitely have to try more of the menu. Clean fresh and a good people watching watching view of Magdalen Road”

“The food was excellent, old school menu with good home cooked meals and large portions. Friendly staff. Definitely would eat here again. Family friendly”

“Nice atmosphere, friendly manager Andy, came for a beer, stayed for his singing. As a chef myself I can comment that the fish and chips was a proper decent pub fish and chips!”

“I enjoyed my stay here, room was clean and bed was comfortable, continental breakfast supplied in the room, bread, jam, orange juice and cereals. I feel the Internet photos don't do this place justice, it's better in real life, parking was a bonus. The pub itself is like a Tardus inside and the garden is a hugh Oasis, it took my breath away, would be great for parties and functions. Also, the drinks in here were cheaper then any other pub we visited in Norwich. A few minutes down the road is a sweet shop and fish and chip shop, further along is another pub on the river and the train station is walking distance. Walking into the town centre took us 15 minutes, but it was an interesting and lovely walk. Thanks for recommending the perfume to me and Beatle juice you looked amazing”

“Great pub right in the heart of the city. Good service, great choice of drinks.”

“We held my daughters baby shower Afternoon Tea at The Horse and Groom yesterday, and it was amazing. The afternoon tea was a sweet and savoury one and was all home made and delicious. It was also a really good price, probably the nicest I’ve had in a very long time. We had a semi private room space with use of the outside back courtyard which was absolutely lovely. The staff were so helpful and just couldn’t do enough, we were made to feel so welcome and will definitely be back for dinner very soon. Special thanks to Tina for providing such excellent service … nothing was too much trouble. The barman and Chef Manager were also excellent, they checked regularly we had everything we needed and even offered more afternoon tea items, and constant tea and cold drinks. Thank you so much.”

“Stayed for one night and really enjoyed our stay. Lovely room, comfortable and clean. Staff were very helpful and friendly. The restaurant was great, delicious food and lovely staff as well. Highly recommend, would stay again.”

“The Hill House Inn in Happisburgh is the kind of pub you dream of stumbling into on a windswept Norfolk day. Perched not far from the cliffs, it has that mix of cosy charm and a bit of history woven into the beams. Inside, it feels like the sort of place where smugglers probably once traded contraband rum under the table while pretending to just be “popping in for a pint”. The ale is well-kept, the food hearty, and the welcome as warm as the fire in winter. It’s one of those pubs where you immediately relax – the dog gets a biscuit, you get a pint, and suddenly you’re contemplating whether moving to Happisburgh full-time might be a good life choice. The menu covers all the pub classics you want when by the sea, and the portions are not stingy. Pair that with friendly staff and a bit of local banter, and you’re onto a winner. If you’re anywhere near the North Norfolk coast, stop in. The Hill House isn’t just a pub, it’s part of the story of Happisburgh – and once you’ve been, you’ll find yourself looking for excuses to “accidentally” pass by again.”

“I stayed at Poacher’s Pocket from Sunday through to Friday morning in chalet number six, and it was everything you could want – whether you’re away as a couple or, like me, on a business trip. The views are breathtaking, the service is impeccable, and the staff are genuinely friendly. The owner, who has run the place for 15 years, has clearly put a lot of care into maintaining and updating the site – the new cladding on the outside gives it a fresh and welcoming look. The location is perfect: plenty of space out front to enjoy in better weather, a shop just down the road for essentials, Sainsbury’s only four miles away, and the beach right on the doorstep. Inside, having a fridge and a microwave grill made it easy to prepare simple meals when I didn’t feel like going out. That said, I did eat in the restaurant and was really impressed. I had lamb tikka with rice – cooked beautifully and even delivered straight to my room, which is service above and beyond. As someone who travels a lot and reviews plenty of places, I can honestly say Poacher’s Pocket stands out. For the location, the views, the comfort, and the service, I couldn’t recommend it more highly. Just book it – you won’t regret it.”

“Didn't book and turned up on a whim. The staff couldn't have been more accommodating and sorted us a table even though most tables were reserved. Food was fantastic when it arrived. Beautifully presented and so delicious. Decided on a pudding which we don't normally do. Also fantastic. First time here and when we return to the Broads again, we will revisit.”

“Great night on Saturday. Such a lovely atmosphere and enjoyed the kareoke.”

“Wow ! Jamie & Annie went all out I’m so grateful & highly recommend. Enjoy the food & atmosphere by the river at Reedham, amazing. Thank you.”

“Great fish and chips, all fresh and prepared on the premises. We had to book a couple of days in advance, but well worth it. 1st fish and chips since Mr's Ts burnt down, and nearly as good.”
