After a nice walk around the lake...it wa nice to stop at the Flint. Its been revamped this year and looks much better as well as being easier for the Staff, snacks were all that we tried but there was plenty of choice on offer for those with a bigger appetite. Service was quick, and Staff were very polite as usual. Plenty of seating, upstairs, inside and outdoors. Thank you.

This place has changed quite a bit over the years, still a nice cafe inside and more structure to sit outside on level ground. Dogs are allowed in the outside part and there are toilets inside and a new block outside. A nice place to grab a coffee and some bird food.

We arrived at the cafe 10.15am paid for 2hrs parking £2.80. In plenty of time to try their full English breakfast as advertised the web site. Went and asked for a menu, but was told they didn't have any, but he could read off the lunch menu, but I said it was the breakfast menu I wanted. In reply he said they have stopped doing it as the board with the breakfast menu on was turned around, they must of run out or something. Then he offered either a sausage roll or a pastie (unfortunately not what I had in mind for breakfast). I was not impressed. No breakfast and paid for 2hrs parking which I didnt use. May I suggest that you get some menus printed, so customers can decide what they want without having to queue.

I regularly walk my dog at Whitlingham Park and more often than not stop off at the cafe to undo all the good work I’ve done for my waist line! As a disabled customer who relies on his Assistance Dog the team are so accommodating and welcoming it always puts me (and therefore my dog) at ease. Sue deserves a special mention. How she manages to stay calm in what is often a pretty busy place and still manage to take the time to check on the customers is beyond me.

Great that this place is dog friendly, the food is average but it is always very busy when I have visited.........staff members are a little sharp when ordering, you are treated a bit like sheep/cattle rather than a customer, so that could be improved upon, the coffee is very good, the views & atmosphere is fairly good, all in all maybe worth a visit depending how you feel about customer service.

Was camping nearby and looking forward to a full English cooked breakfast as advertised on their website. Apparently, they've not done this for a while and the staff were very apologetic even though they have to deal with complaints day in and day out despite repeated requests to get it changed. The bacon rolls bought instead were dry and difficult to eat. The coffee and cake was good.

As others have said it's such a shame this café isn't as nice as it could be. Some older members of staff in particular are unhappy and unpleasant. Perhaps if they dislike their job they ought to leave and let someone younger and more enthusiastic have their role. Food and coffee average at best. This place has huge potential that is being wasted.

This place could be brilliant, but sadly it is lacking in a lot of areas. It feels to me like they have settled for mediocrity because they know people will come no matter because of the location. I asked the guy behind the counter what the soup of the day was and he said he thought it was mushroom, went and checked and came back and said it was carrot and coriander. I would expect the server as a bare minimum to know what soup they have on today. Then you have to tell the server at the till what you have ordered. This is very open to dishonesty. They'd also ran out of any hot pastries (cornish pasties, sausage rolls, etc) someone in front was told it would be a 20 minute wait. All in all a great location that is run really poorly. I won't be returning.

Service with a wan smile from tired, overworked staff. Sad to see signs that hot food availability was reduced due to staff shortages. Surely there are people out there needing part time jobs? Even volunteering opportunities? There used to be a small shop element, selling books and souvenirs - I was hoping to find a publication about the history of the area. Is this all due to council cuts, I wonder?

We like to stop here for a drink and a cake after a dog walk. It's great that you can take dogs in, and they even sell dog bone biscuit. The staff are quite friendly, and the cakes seem like they are home made and are very nice, the coffee is also nice, and the atmosphere is ok, well it is until they want you out by 3.30pm dispite closing at 4pm, they make it known you are no longer welcome at 3.30pm, they shut the roller window doors, stack the chairs on the tables, they certainly make you aware you are no longer welcome, this could be a lovely place dispite this annoyance. It seems like I'm not the only reviewer who noticed this at a different time, and it didn't feel like they were short staffed before this is mentioned.... Update 25th August 2023 returned to see if things had changed for the better, the only change is the cafe is open until 5pm apparently, this isn't the case. The staff start clearing the things up at 4.20pm and the Barn doors were shut up at 4.50pm. They even took the umbrellas down when we were still eating, there nothing better than telling you to go....

I’ve read some reviews of barnham broom. I can’t believe anyone would give it a 5 star rating. Stayed there two nites with friends, We ate at the brasserie on the first day, three starters were sent back and because they were so bad(dried and rubbery) we ordered crab cakes instead, Two had pieces of shell to them. As of mains. Duck cooked ok but orange sauce brown tasteless sludge. Vegetables over cooked. Hashed potatoes square stodgy block. The main that was of reasonable taste was the canalone. Did’nt bother with pudding as you might of guessed. Wine overpriced(39.95 for an ordinary Prosecco). As for the sports bar. It was so bad I haven’t time to write everything. Service was terrible.orders wrong. Food out at different times.Worst was none tasted halfway decent. I found it difficult to give the place one star. I will go back to play golf as both courses good, especially the valley course but will eat and drink somewhere else.shame as setting and views lovely. .

Cosy village pub just outside of Norwich. We had a Sunday roast and it was delicious. Although the apple crumble we got just after was bit of a disappointment. The waiters were overall really nice but the cashier was quite rude and acted like he saw an alien when we wanted to split the bill at the end. I am guessing it’s not a common practice! Overall would definitely visit again as it was a lovely atmosphere and good food.
