“Welcoming old fashioned pub. The food is traditional "pub grub". Not fancy but great value. Hence 5 stars.”

“A friend runs this pub to a high standard which has an excellent range of beers and spirits along with assorted bar snacks. Events periodically including Karaoke and many different bands. Unfortunately the pub doesn't serve meals but has many a visiting food van especially combined with various events such as Two Wheel Tuesday and the Old Buckenham Airshow which can be viewed from the village green. Dog friendly venue, juke box and pool table, seating out the front overlooking one of the largest village greens in England.”

“From the moment i arrived for my leaving due at The Plough Inn, it was clear i was in for something special. The ambiance struck the perfect balance between cozy and refined, setting the tone for an unforgettable dining experience. I started with the crispy whitebait, which was beautifully presented and cooked to perfection—light, crispy, and packed with flavor. It was an excellent start that left me excited for what was to come. For the main course, the Wagyu burger truly stole the show. Juicy, rich, and bursting beautiful flavours it was easily one of the best burgers I’ve had. The attention to detail in the plating matched the quality of the ingredients, making it as visually appealing as it was delicious. A special mention must go to Christine, She was not only professional but also warm and attentive, ensuring the night flowed seamlessly. Her thoughtful service added a personal touch that elevated the entire experience. In short, The Plough Inn delivered on every front—taste, presentation, service, and atmosphere. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it, and I’m already looking forward to my next visit.”

“Really can't fault it easy to book and they really looked sfter our party of 11 people. Friendly staff in an atmosphetic old cinema. This is the 3rd time we have used it for a staff night out . Plenty of food and all dietry requirements covered. Great evening thank you guy's.”

“What a lovely, busy little cocktail bar! Not your normal cocktails, so I felt a little giggly when I had 2 cocktails lol! We were first 2 in, the quickly filled up. Girls serving were polite & friendly.”

“Wow! This was what was uttered on serving the food. Huge portions of delicious food. From BBQ duck, Greek skewer, meat sharing platter, turkey roast dinners and burgers for the kids, we were all delighted. Bonus, for me, were the two Beavertown beers on tap, impressive ☺️”

“We celebrated our Grandad's 90th birthday here. We had Sunday roast which was absolutely delicious. Every single member of staff was lovely,chatty, accommodating and very efficient. They put a birthday banner on the table for us with a birthday card for our Grandad. We thought that was a lovely touch. We definitely recommend this lovely place and will be coming back. Thank you :-)”

“We had a fabulous dinner at Shambles a couple of weeks ago. It was a quiet Tuesday night but the service was swift and friendly and the Chicken Chasseur was delicious. Wine was great, generous glasses and at a reasonable price. Lovely setting and delightful decor. I highly recommend it.”

“Had a lovely lunch here and tried the venison which is from the estate. The food quality was great, as was the service but the whole vibe with the fire and decor is what makes this place! It’s a lovely atmosphere and the definition of cosy. I highly recommend if in the area ❤️”

“Must be the best takeaway in Norfolk. We had lamb shank tonight which were lovely with good portions but the desert of summer pudding was delicious. We have had a few meals from The Pepperpot and always found them superb, lovely flavours and great packaging means meals are piping hot when you get home. Great service, thank you Pepperpot.”

“We were here for the weekend st a friends wedding anniversary. There were around 25 of us. The service was very good, as was the food, which was prepared well, very tasty and served hot. Room was a bit tired but very clean, and we only slept in it so it was perfect really.”

“Stopped for a drink and the menu looked nice so ended up having a starter! Nice place with a nice view if you sit out the front - can watch the world go by. Friendly staff and served fast at the bar for drinks - table service for food. I had pineapple juice which I am glad was sunpride - only the best !”

“Wonderful pub in a beautiful setting serving fantastic food. It’s run by people who really care and want you to have a lovely time. It’s also dog-friendly, with a cozy bar and a delightful B&B. An all-round classy place and highly recommended.”

“Just been in for Sunday roast, it was delicious. Fast friendly service, food is amazing. We will definitely be coming back”

“My review is for the pub & restaurant side which is so good. Very well set out with great outdoor seating and lovely areas inside too. If it’s just for a drink or for some of the truly amazing food on offer you won’t be dissapointed. The ribs are best around no lie! Fresh crab salad was gorgeous too. Great selection of drinks make this a must stop.”

“I recently dined at Côte Restaurant and had a wonderful experience. The food was delicious and beautifully presented, with each dish prepared to perfection. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, making it an ideal spot for a relaxed meal. The staff were friendly, attentive, and provided excellent service throughout, ensuring we felt well taken care of. The menu offered a great selection of classic French dishes, all with fresh, quality ingredients. Overall, Côte Restaurant provided a delightful dining experience, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for authentic French cuisine and exceptional service.”

“The best steak house going. Very few places offer the hot plate so you can cook your steak to your liking. Delicious starters and deserts too..”

“Popped in after seeing this place while on the train from Diss. Well laid out venue with inside and outside seating/bars. Picnic lager so refreshing and nice and mild strength-wise, ideal to quench the thirst on a hot day. Had a 'Norwich Niihau' pizza. For me, the best pizza I've ever had. Absolutely incredible. Looking forward to coming again soon!”
