Loved the decor and quirkiness of this hotel. Great location for stop off on the way to the Norfolk Coast. Lovely bar and restaurant and friendly staff.

A group of us went to the restaurant for a friend’s birthday meal. Great atmosphere, lovely food and wonderful service. There was also an excellent band in the front bar after we had finished our meal. We’ll be back soon.

This review is about the restaurant and not the hotel as we never stayed. We came for Sunday roast and the food was amazing, there was a party of 6 and 6 very clean plates were all that was left. First time visiting and certainly will not be the last. Can highly recommend it! We had a wonderful time thanks to Rye's excellent service, who was, friendly, polite, and attentive.

We had a family Sunday Lunch at the Bull, the food was good, unfortunately the service was shockingly slow, taking over an hour for lunch to arrive.

We picked the wrong Sunday I think, as they had a group of 36 in. Staff struggling to cope by their own admission, and plates and glasses stacked up everywhere. Nothing against the staff who were working away, but we suffered as other customers. Is up to management to resource properly. No-one at the bar taking orders for long spells. Food was decent enough for price, but wasn’t relaxing and so we just paid and left. Couldn’t recommend.

Nice pub and very historic building. I had the fillet of sea bream (two would have been nice) and my wife had sausage and mash. All very good. Friendly staff.

Took over an hour and a half to get four meals, despite the restaurant being largely empty. The server was nice but did not provide water or check back during our long wait and kept touching the rims of the glasses when she brought our drinks. Will not return.

Been here a few times for Sunday dinner and it’s by far the best food we have tasted in a long time, the staff are excellent and you never wait long for your food. Not the cheapest but you get what you pay for.

Very nice place, had multiple meals over the couple of weeks I have been in England, every time the food was beyond exceptional. 5 stars all the way.

Awful from the moment we arrived. The bar staff were rude, the restaurant staff overwhelmed and over worked. They clearly didn't have our booking details, dumped us on a dirty table and then ignored us. As this was a birthday meal for my mother, needless to say we didn't stay and walked out. Absolutely would not recommend!!!!

Very over price for what we received. Ordered two roast dinners one without gravy Veg came out warm, followed by dinners completely different from ordered and missing the Yorkshire puddings. So sent them back one dinner came back out nearly straight away and the other in about 5 minutes which meant veg all cold and bread sauce cold not only that second dinner now missing stuffing. Not even once did staff come to ask if everything was ok which I find very poor customer service from any restaurant. Any reason I have even a star was because meat was ok. I took plates etc back when finished and told staff about events and feelings but was washed under the carpet and really not respected, so disappointed from such a lovely building and place.

Service was very slow in the restaurant. When I asked about the meal after an hour I was told they were short staffed in the kitchen. It then took another 10mins

They need to work on the communication and service at the restaurant, they don't get the orders correct and will take over 30 min to order food.

We've been in the Bull pub on several occasions in the past and the food and service was good. We had been seeing the adverts about the new menu on Facebook so we thought we'd pop in again to try it out. Unfortunately, we weren't as pleased with the food as we were expecting to be. The food from the old menu was much better. The quality was mediocre and because of this, we thought that it was over priced for what it was. I'm a great believer that if it's not broke, don't fix it. The bar staff were to busy talking to each other and it took ages before I was served. I wouldn't mind if the pub was busy.

I booked a Sunday lunch online a few hours before our time slot. Upon arrival, no one greeted us, and we had to wander around the place before finally finding someone at the bar. We were then escorted to the other end of the building where their restaurant is located. After being seated, a waitress informed us that the kitchen wasn’t open and no Sunday lunches were available. We were only offered the BBQ menu, which we declined as we were specifically looking forward to a Sunday roast. It doesn’t take much to call a customer to inform them if the kitchen isn’t open when there are bookings. We ended up going to Worlington Hall just around the corner, where we had a fantastic meal with amazing service. Very disappointed with our experience and will not be returning.

We booked for Sunday lunch. Unfortunately when we arrived we were informed that the ovens weren't working. It would have been good to have a courtesy phone call prior to our arrival informing us that there would be a BBQ menu as opposed to a Sunday lunch menu ( they do take contact details). We were left wating for some time prior to our drinks order being taken - we then had to wait for a long time before they arrived. We then ordered our food. We waited nearly an hour for it to arrive - in the meantime we had not been asked if we would like more drinks - which were left empty for at least 30minutes. When the food did arrive - one of us did not get what we had ordered. When this was queried with the waitress - she went off - but did not sort immediately - she sorted something else out, then came back to us - to try and sort -she did offer to replace the food with what was ordered - but we did not feel we could wait any longer. We did also ask for more drinks when the food was first brought out - but failed to receive them by the time we had finished our meal and left. We went to pay and I believe the supervisor asked how it was - and seemed surprised when I answered no to her, did I enjoy question. Unfortunately this was not a positive experience - we had particularly gone there to check out Sunday lunch as we wanted to take some friends there in a couple of weeks. We will not be going back and would not recommend this. There were some really fundamental service errors and I would expect the person running the service to have a good overview of what was going on.

I was booked onto a compact double room - I was travelling alone. The bathroom was fabulous. The sleeping area was definitely compact! I know I didn’t need loads of room for just me but I really don’t think it justified the £90 price tag. My friends had a massive room for the same price. I don’t think that was fair. Breakfast, which was included, was nice. When we checked in we were told there was a laminate in the room with all the hotel info - there wasn’t

Didn't eat or stay there, just drinks with friends. Nice comfortable bar area, and the bar lady was very pleasant. Drinks are very pricey, so take plenty of money

We ate in Las Iguanas on our last night of our stay at Center Parcs Elveden. They were under alot of pressure as Bella Italia staff and some customers had to join the restaurant due to having no gas. We were an hour early and asked if we could have our table earlier. We were accommodated very quickly and shown to our table. Our waitress Christine who came from Bella Italia was struggling a little with the orders which is to be expected. She asked for help from another waitress called Jade. Jade was fantastic, she helped Christine and us also with questions about the food. Jade went above and beyond to make our experience amazing! She spent time talking to us and making sure we were happy with the service. Christine was also great. It really made the whole experience feel special. Jade was so professional and considering how busy they all were, we didn’t feel at all rushed. Thank you!
