Cosy Club Norwich in Norwich

It's an impressive building with high ceilings and a great vibe if you like to step back into another era. I believe it was once a bank. It gives off an impression of opulence. You can usually get a table without booking which is handy. I was unlucky with my food as it was lukewarm. Maybe due to the distance from kitchen to table.

Incredibly unhelpful and rude staff, service shocking, overpriced for the food quality and atmosphere very disappointing. Would not recommend to anyone.

Beautiful building, delicious food, charming staff. I've been here several times and appreciate the choices for breakfast.

I love this place 2nd time coming it has a Titanic era feel to it beautifully decorated a great place to dine . Fantastic food staff were all polite well mannered lovely helpful staff throughout will defo come again . Great prices for such a great place to go ..il defo book again

Unfortunately wasn't a good experience, the room was cold, our order was wrong twice, the service was great in recovering from the mistakes and the toilets were very messy, bin overflowing on the floor. My bill was £140 I felt like I didn't want to pay it.

Just popped in for a drink. Great atmosphere and like how the bar and restaurant are discreetly divided. My only complaint is that they let far too many people in IMO. The bar area was packed and I mean PACKED at around 7.30pm on a Saturday. It took over 20mins to get a drink and there was a group of guys that me & my friends were keen to give a wide berth but there was literally no way to move further away. We left after one drink because of this but returned a few hours later once it had thinned out and had such a good time! Still very busy and we had to stand without a table but much better vibes with the freedom to move :)

A mixed review so I’ll start with the positives. It is a lovely, atmospheric building with plenty of room between the tables. We had the club sandwich which was very tasty, well-presented and reasonably priced. Unfortunately we then ordered crème brûlées for desserts and they were definitely not worth the half-hour wait. They were tasteless, served with a very heavy cream and not worth the price. Our waiter was friendly so I’m not criticising him but there was clearly some ill-feeling amongst some of the staff and management as we could hear moans and complaints which really shouldn’t happen within earshot of customers. Will I go again? Yes probably, but with so much competition in Norwich I hope Cosy Club will not just rely on its beautiful building to attract customers. The menu and service has to match it.

Excellent cocktails. The Burrata dish is a must try

We, 3 kids and 4 adults, had dinner on Christmas eve. Dan! was so friendly and amazing. He was most helpful with getting everything we needed, and our food and drink orders. He had a big smile and always made sure everything was good and correct. Food was good as always. We had a wonderful time!

It's ok, would be a bit unfair of me to give a bad rating, it's just not my kind of place. Feels very 'chainy' and basic. Nice building, shame it isn't something a bit more independent.

Over priced food and drink, music was too loud, which made it very difficult to have conversations. Not for me

The venue is incredible it’s in an old bank and felt pretty grand. The staff were friendly however I ordered a GF vegan butty buy I got a meat butty instead. We had to wait for my food while my partner had finished. All in all we were there for an hour for a sandwich and some pancakes.

One of the more civilised places in Norwich to finish a night out. Old Fashioned a little sweet for me.

First time going to Cosy Club. We chose it as our “Christmas Party” meal choice (it was only me and my fiancé…self employed Christmas party). Our server was really upbeat and happy. I can’t remember his name, possibly Kian? Other staff just didn’t seem to look as happy, I get that there is stress and it being a busy time with it being Christmas so I guess that might be why? We ordered cocktails. The Old Fashioned was really nice, the Margarita was ok, didn’t have salt on the rim which I always expect but maybe that’s because I had the Seasonal Special version? We had 3 starter plates. All nice, but the Halloumi and hot honey just felt a bit overpriced for what it was. It was also a tiny bit dry so would have expected some kind of dip to go with it. The arancini balls were amazing. We did want the croquettes but they were sold out, which was surprising when it was only 4:45 when we were eating. We both had the festive burger and upgraded the fries to Parmesan and truffle oil. They were amazing! I very rarely get a burger when I eat out because I generally feel disappointed and wish I’d ordered something else but this one was lovely. The pigs in blankets were especially nice. We did have one drinks order taken wrong (wrong beer) but again, appreciated it was busy and mistakes happen. Total bill came to £90 (3 drinks, 3 small plates and 2 burgers) which just felt a bit high for what we got. The building is incredible, lovely setting. But something about the atmosphere just felt a bit off. Not sure I’d return for an evening meal. But would maybe try for breakfast or lunch.

We went for dinner here Friday night (13/12/24) and it was pretty busy, which we expected. It was very loud, partly from other guests which I don’t mind but the music was also very loud so we had to shout to be heard by the person sat next to us. It took us a long time to get served and while we weren’t in a rush when we arrived by the time we were paying it had become a rush because of how long it had taken. The food was quite good but nothing particularly special. I enjoyed my Spanish chicken main but it wasn’t good enough to make me want to come back because the price was maybe a little high for what we had. What really lowers the score for this review was the service we got from Ehab. He was overly confident and informal, didn’t use a notepad to take our orders which meant we had to correct him on some of it before he left with the order. When he took a drinks order from us I knew I’d have something later and just wanted water, when I told him I’d be fine with water he said “cheap!” Which I thought was a bit rude. Then later on when I did get a drink I got the festive cocktail special the Bailey’s White Russian (which was very nice and I would recommend!) and he commented “racist.” Which I thought was completely inappropriate and really put me off having ordered it at all. I wouldn’t tell people not to go here if they tell me they’re interested, but I definitely won’t advise my friends to try it if they’re unsure.

Absolutely awful experience! - the manager was very passive aggressive when we asked to be seated making some sarcastic comment about us waiting at the bar for a drink. He didn’t seem to realise the service was slow and we were fed up waiting. - it took 30 mins from arriving to get a drink served - the waiter immediately took away the regular menu and forced us to order from the EXTREMELY overpriced Christmas menu. - what a joke! The starters worked out as £15 per head. Whilst the food tasted nice they amount served was embarrassing. For £15 each I’d expect at least double the amount of food. Check the pic- this was to serve 5 people. - the mains were awful. The pie was hollow and some cheap pie from a foil tin. This food is cheap and offers extremely poor value. The veg was cold. - the staff are not delivering a Christmas experience. It’s just like a converter belt service - trying to get you and out as quickly as possible. - hated every minute being here.

After recently moving to Norfolk I was missing my local lounge cafe. I was informed there was a cosy club in Norwich only 25 mins away. I visited Saturday with my daughter and our small dogs. We was so impressed. The staff were so friendly and attentive making us and our dogs feel welcome, offering water and biscuits for the dogs. The food was delicious. The prawn starter was amazing. The seabass was better than I could ever have anticipated. The building is gorgeous and has such a pleasant vibe. I can't wait to return soon with my partner, this is my new favourite place. Such a great find. 5* all round from me...love it!!

Stunning interior of this old bank which has been turned into a Restaurant, went for a works party extremely nice food ok for a special occasion.

Amazing place, My daughter's and I came to celebrate my birthday, Staff efficient and friendly, only downside we had to wait an hour for our meal but it was delicious when it finally arrived.

I enjoyed my time at Cosy club. I was there with my colleagues . The service was great 👍. The food was excellent!

The interior is amazing a real touch of elegance, the staff are incredibly friendly. Food was enjoyable. This is great for a treat or special event.

Had a really lovely pleasant evening , The Cosy Club is correctly named as the atmosphere is just that ( cosy ) and that’s strange as the place is huge, being crammed in or to near other tables in a restaurant is my bug bare but it’s spacious . We had a very helpful waiter Alistair who was spot on from the get go and nothing was too much trouble , food was lovely served swiftly but not rushed. There was an issue with our voucher and a Manager came and helped us with this , I didn’t get her name ! But she was extremely helpful . All in all a 5 ⭐ service .

Had food whilst on business and wasn’t left alone despite large group bookings. Attentive and polite staff.

Absolutely terrible. Restaurant was almost empty but they couldn’t accommodate us as they were short staffed. Avoid.

Had a party of 30 in one of the rooms, food luke warm, service very slow and didn't take orders for desserts for over half of the party. Shame as always had excellent service and food in main restaurant.

A rather impressive building oozing with elegance and finesse. Stylish and suave, yet cosy in it's own unique way. This is a beautful place, yet gives the Impression of a once old fashioned gentleman's club, which I liked. The prices were reasonable but only stopped for drinks so cannot rate the food element. A really lovely visit and worth checking out for sure if looking for something a little different with a different kind of vibe.

Hi. Been here a couple of times before (breakfast and tea, both good) but this time, unfortunately service was quite slow (30 minute wait for main courses after starters) and portions rather smaller than expected, given the price. Flavours were good though. Perhaps they are having staffing problems. 3.5 stars

Lovely atmosphere and helpful staff members. We enjoyed our brunch and have used one of our stamp cards to pay for one. It's very cosy and bright place and loads of different lights around, our daughter really liked it.

Nice chilled, comfortable atmosphere (although November air conditioning was on.......totally unnecessary) food was very good, cocktails (reduced price) excellent very comfortable seating in bar area, service was excellent, attentive but not overly so, very friendly and knowledgeable

Outstanding food and service. Book to avoid disappointment! My fish and chips, served in a delightful caper and lemon cream sauce was amazing. My wife loved her gluten free smash burger. Desserts were amazing. Creme brulee with real vanilla pods and a crunchy top, and salted caramel and chocolate mouse. The house white wine, a verdejo, is really good. Christie was the perfect hostess. Thank you.

I would like to thank the staff and the waiter who served us, everything was great and delicious, I can also single out the bartender Homa for his professionalism and the best service in my life

Great place for lunch! Very friendly and helpful staff and food was great. Nice relaxing atmosphere, highly recommend

Impressive surroundings + great food. Delicious vegan options, highly recommended!

I had smoked salmon, avocado and scrambled egg on sourdough toast when I was at Norwich and I must say it was the best I've ever had. Thoroughly enjoyed it. The service was really good as well.

We visited for our anniversary, to start with the service was great, then our waitress seemed to go home and we got ignored by the other staff. A really poor show!!! Our mains were great but we were then left!!!

Nice visit, took a while to get the drinks after ordering, should have gone to the bar. Good was nice, but if you advertise potatoe skins double cooked, don't serve new potatoes deep fried, they are not the same and 5 small pots is poor value at 5.50! Nice staff though. Nice place, beautiful decor

Went in on our anniversary for lunch, and it was all so lovely! All the staff said congrats and we got comp glasses of bubbly which just added to our experience. The food was lush, one of the best meals I've had in Norwich and the service was amazing from everyone. We will definitely be recommending and going back ourselves!

Food portions for a dinner rubbish, Service very slow

Great waiter who served us on 10th Nov. Very charming, funny and professional.

Excellent food. Charming service. Nice atmosphere. Not just dog friendly but welcoming, dog was given attention and offered water. Would recommend

We worked together at NatWest Bank at the age of 16 in this same building! Had a get together at the age of 61!

The place is posh with huge headroom. Drinks are priced reasonably. Service is good.

We decided to celebrate our wedding here, so booked the Vault (a private room) and we were very happy with our decision. Julia who held our cocktail making master class was first class and I can't praise her enough, thank you. The food was excellent, the cocktails were delicious and the whole venue was superb. Would highly recommend.

I could write a novel on what's good about this venue 5*. Arrived for drinks left satisfied couple of hours later.

Loved the relaxed & not overly loud atmosphere. Cocktails were delicious.

Great venue but found the food a little lacking. Ordered curry and was not spicy, no chutneys, wasn't offered poppadoms. But service was good and staff pleasant.

Place is amazing, really nice atmosphere and decor, firstly ordered drinks, starters, mains. Was busy so waited a while to get our drinks, and then told my steak option wasn't available so went for fillet steak, then we received mains but not starters, the waiter apologised, once I had my steak I wasn't very happy as it was very little, x4 small vine tomatoes and around half a portion of chips for £30 plus pounds, I complained to the manager about the issues and she offered us free desserts, the Creme brulee was absolutely lovely and highly recommend, would I go back, probably but pick something like what my other half had as looked more filling and cheaper (buttercream chicken).

Amazing venue visually, exelent service and the food was good.

Lovely rooms, good range on the menu and staff were very attentive constantly. A slight problem with noise control as the rooms echo a little so sometimes it can be difficult to hear the people at your table.

Absolutely brilliant cottage pie freshly made,all food looked so good well done that team,cottage pie was 11 euros I think ,lovely freshly cooked

Inside an old bank. Very grand interior. I thnk you know the food here. Burger and chips.

Nice decor, incredibly slow service. Will put it down to being very new and having a settling in period. However serving staff need to be more careful - putting large glasses of water and "watch out the bowl is really hot and the chips are straight out of the fryer" right in front of my 3 year old; several minutes after the other food had arrived. Careless. Edit: Returned to see if it improved. NO. Don't bother unless you like waiting 50 minutes for your food, and enjoy a complete abscence of waiting staff. Utterly rubbish. Avoid.

The food is fantastic, exceptional service. It really is cosy for such a large venue and has a lively atmosphere. I will definitely visit again!

Nice place for a bite to eat and a few drinks

Food not so great, but everything else was awesome. Service was great, the interior is amazing and drinks were yummy! The food was highly disappointing and not so great though, so we would only go back for drinks in the future.

Very impressed, wouldn't think it was part of a chain. Amazing food and decor.

Stunning building, really friendly and helpful team. Felt spoilt and special. Thank You

Honestly couldn’t fault it. Fantastic food, a great selection of wine, a wonderful atmosphere and Jeremiah looked after us so well. The kitchen stays open late so it’s spot on if you’re heading out for food later than usual. We’ll be back!

Nice place. Great staff. Food pretty good. Had a nice evening. Good atmosphere.

What an absolutely amazing experience! 100%

Very much 1930s theme wood panels dark furniture cocktails at the bar food expensive but delicious

Lovely evening and lovely food Our server Christie was absolutely amazing! Was so friendly and kind. Would go again!

We loved this place. The food was delicious, the service was perfect and a very good mixture of ages, enjoying this restaurant.

Amazing restaurant - quality service, accommodated everyone. Was a gorgeous brunch and not stopped thinking about that feta dip.

We have been to the Cosy Club twice recently. Both times we were served by Christie. Both times she was brilliant. Always good with dietary requirements and so kind and accommodating. We come here regularly and are always happy. Thank you for being so lovely to us.

Fabulous old building with beautiful features.

Went to a private party in the Vault which was a room hotter than the sun. No air and so uncomfortable. There were fans and an AC unit which people gathered around to chat. I would not recommend at all. Food was ok and Liv the bar person was exceptional.

Extremely friendly and joyful service and the staff were very accommodating and knowledgable when I was admiring the decor and artwork.

I went to the Cozy club on a date and I had the vegan cheeseburger and fries and it was honestly the best burger I have ever had. I’m still thinking about it to this day! I also had the pineapple and peach spritz, which was delightful. Whilst the meal and drinks were quite expensive it was worth every penny for me. Will definitely go back!

This evening has been amazing, amazing time with Tom our fabulous waiter who was patience, kind and very helpful. Made our evening really work while! As usually will always come back

Mark the manager was accommodating for what we need as a group of professionals needing some downtime. He made sure we were looked after. The staff were very friendly and Lukas was very attentive. The drinks are good value for money and the food was exceptional. Highly recommend!

This was my first time at a Cosy Club and it was for a hen party brunch. It was excellent from start to finish. With the service, food, drinks and venue! It was the perfect start for the bride and bridesmaids to enjoy the day. Thank you.

We were recommended this as a good gluten free option for Norwich. However the food arrived after a long wait absolutely cold. Only two staff seemed to be working in this huge space so we ate the cold food them complained. We did get 25% off the bill but we weren’t impressed by the modest portions or the length of time it took. For such an iconic venue providing hot food is the minimum you would expect. Avoid the Cosy Burger and the Salmon. - neither were up to much.

Christie was wonderful!!!! Thank you for looking after us all

At the site of old NatWest Bank. Great atmosphere. Good food and service. Parking available nearby at St Andrews or St Giles. Decent portions. Not that busy on weekdays. Great for a meal out with friends/family

Just had a delicious birthday breakfast- beautifully cooked. Superb, gentle, courteous service and a special birthday bonus offered- yum! Excellent music playing not too loudly. A fantastic start to my special day. Thank you. Elisabeth

Not as good as Lincoln or Norwich cosy clubs.

Had a birthday lunch with friends, great atmosphere, good food. My friend was given a free glass of prosecco 🥂 for her birthday! Friendly staff. One star off because of the distance and accessibility to the toilets. Would go again.

Nice place for a tux!!...food did look amazing though...not overly welcoming for drinkers only but beautiful building.

Quick bite to eat before the cinema. Chilled afternoon atmosphere and beautiful food.

Atmosphere was brilliant & Excellent service from Christie throughout our visit. Very dog friendly & water bowl brought as we sat down. Food well presented & a good menu.

Just back from a large family lunch at the Cosy Club. 14 of us have just had a superb meal, including 2 who are gluten intolerant. The food was all perfectly cooked, served on time and very tasty. Massive shout out to our waitress Christie who looked after us throughout. Many thanks to all involved. David and family

Went for breakfast. Very good food, I would have liked it to be a bit hotter though. But beautiful building and ceiling 🤩 Very clean.

Food and service of a good standard and reasonable price. However the cost of drinks are ridiculous and unjustified. Nearly £5 for a small coke is outrageous and £12 for a gin and tonic! Come on guys how can you justify those prices.

The food here was really good and lots of options for gluten free, with friendly and accommodating staff. And of course, this place is so pretty inside (it used to be the location of a bank so it's super cool with its skylight). Wanted to come here for a while and it didn't disappoint.

Great, friendly staff. Stunning building and finishes. Lovely food, as ever in Cosy Clubs we have been to. Dog friendly to boot, excellent experience

what a great lunch, we went for my daughter's birthday and the drinks and food were fab, really well cooked fillet steak with parmesan truffle fries, vegetarian ravioli, crisp, sweet potato fries and affogato with Disarano velvet. Great service, great food, thanks

Always enjoy few good quality drinks and food here

Food was great, Jeremiah was very friendly and recommended lots to food and drink to us. We look forward to our next visit

This is an amazing venue. An old Barcleys Bank in the centre of Norwich. Large open plan building with an extravagant circular roof light and old oil paintings on the wall. The highlight though for me was the toilets. Weird, but they are in the basement in the banks old vault. They have left much of this intact in a very imaginary way. The food was good and the gluten free options gave a range of choice and we're clearly labelled. No calling the manager for intolerance, which is refreshing as that is always embarrassing. The staff were helpful and knowledgeable, if sometime a bit absent, as we found out when one of the soft drinks came without syrup in (it had run out in the system). Had to go to the bar to get it sorted. However bar staff sorted it out fine.

Love this place. Food and drink is fab in an environment that's second to none. Service is great and the cocktails are scrum

Being located in an old bank, the atmosphere was beautiful and definitely one of a kind. They cater for your special dietary needs. Have a look at the old vaults downstairs 💰 We were served by Kristi and she was fantastic 🙌 Amazing service and super tasty food with great deals 🏦 Thank you Cosy Club 🙏🏻

The building of course is a fantastic space and everything is of a high standard as we've come yo expect from the Cosy Club chain, with one (quite large) gripe....... waiting for a very long time for a drink because of the very lengthy cocktail making process. If you offer cocktails you really need to have lots of staff. Preferably with dedicated beer servers for the less princessy customers!

A nice experience. I can recommend the brunch

Came here for my little cousins birthday and we had a great time. The food was great and the whole place was a vibe from the downstairs washrooms to the beautiful ceiling, everything was a 10/10. I will definitely recommend the steak and the black truffle ravioli!

Amazing building. Again attended a party food and service great. Only thing I found weird was the party was held in the vault downstairs so no windows so felt a bit claustrophobic and it was obviously very warm

Some of the best Gluten free food in Norwich served by happy friendly staff.

Had bottomless brunch with my daughters and daughter in law Service was amazing 🤩 continually asked if needed more drinks choice of drinks cocktails Prosecco and alcohol free l delicious food and such a beautiful setting Our server made the occasion feel really special Thank you so much from booking to leaving was a great experience highly recommend
