Galante cafe, restaurant and bar in Great Yarmouth

Amazing place to try typical Portuguese specials. Massive portions of delicious food. Great service and friendly atmosphere. Highly recommend. Thank you for having us today!

Excellent food. Great value. Massive portions. Lovey service. Great place to eat before or after the circus at the Hippodrome. We will be back!

Excellent food, bigger than average portions and the price was fair. Will return!

Excellent, well-cooked & presented food with brilliant service & a warm welcome. What more could you ask for?

We have been visiting Cafe Galante for several years now and are somewhat surprised that we have never left a review before! Well, time to make amends! We have been there for lunches, dinners and quick pre-show snacks (Hippodrome Circus is a few steps away)! We have taken friends and family and we can say that every visit has been a success! The welcome is invariably warm and genuine, the service attentive and honest (always listen to their recommendations)! The food is phenomenal, freshly-cooked and obviously prepared with great care! We would point out that the portion sizes are generous to say the least! Their wines are genuine portuguese and absolutely delicious! The coffees are some of the best we have ever tasted! The short redhead tells me that the ladies loos are immaculately clean (always an indication of care and attention to detail). We would point out that the venue is frequented by many regulars and equally popular amongst the Portuguese community as well as with locals and tourists so it can fill up quite quickly around the traditional mealtimes. It can also get a little noisy on occasions, but that never detracts from our enjoyment of eating there! Our recommendations? Go, try it and be amazed!

My son and I absolutely love this place for well cooked tasty food, generous portions and great value for money. The very latest time we went, we took my mother who was over from Stockholm and had the large prawns/crevettes (there were 12), a plate of clams, a pork potatoes and clams dish along with bread, rice, a salad and a 500ml pitcher of wine. The bill came to an amazing £45! Everything was delicious, tasting really fresh.

Excellent place to have a great meal with family and friends! Excellent place to have a great meal with family and friends!

YOUR NUMBER IS WRONG YOU HAVE MY MOBILE AS YOUR RESTAURANTS NUMBER

Cannot rate our experience high enough. Amazing authentic Portuguese food....great staff, huge portions, and very reasonably priced,,,, we will be back

Heard from a local that there is a substantial Portuguese population in the area, so went looking for a good restaurant. from the outside this place looks a little uninviting, bit like a dilapidated '70s pub. on entering, it's a little run down décor wise. however, the few tables that were occupied at 2pm on Thursday, were regulars who welcomed us. we tried to order the cataplana but not on that day, so went for a meat mixed grill and a fish mixed grill with a couple of glasses of house red. i think next time we need to take a lot more people! meat was 2 x flank steak, 2 x pork chop, 4 x bacon, 2 x chicken fillet and some chorizo. Fish was fried / grilled, 2 x salmon fillets, 2 x sea bream, half doz large prawns, 2 x sea bass plus 2 x another (sorry i forgot) all served with rice, new potatoes, chips and salad. optional piri-piri sauce (not for the fainthearted :-)) wine was really nice, coffee also. starters of fresh bread, olives and fish pate (in those little plastic pots). really felt like a local café somewhere in Portugal. The waitress was kind, helpful and friendly and the chef came out to ask if all was well. few more locals came in and all said hello and some had a chat. it's a Portuguese version of a British greasy spoon, but like some greasy spoons, it does what it says on the tin and does it really well. highly recommended, just take lots of friends and an empty belly :-)

What a fabulous restaurant, the staff member was very busy, but very helpful to us deciding what to choose from the menu. Regret, did not take photos, but the portions were large and tasteful and the prices very very reasonable. It was a gem to find and we will return

We were made to feel right at home as soon as we popped in to see it they were open. They were great with the kids, they have plenty of high chairs and brought their food first without being asked. The food was amazing, generous portions, great value and obviously cooked with care. We'll definitely be going back next time we're in Great Yarmouth, because I was sadly too full to try the delicious looking cakes in the counter for dessert! It's very conveniently positioned for the Hippodrome show if you're going there.

Wonderful place to eat Portuguese food

Our third visit. Galante caters for the LargePortuguese working community in Yarmouth. The menu is in English as well as Portuguese but in our experience Spoken English is very basic. Cash only. So far we have enjoyed olives, bread, butter, followed by large dish of grilled succulent ogre prawns in delicious sauce with half litre of Poeruguese white wine,total for two of us £21.50. Dish of small pieces of several kinds of fried fish also good.wenotice some having rice with these dishes.

Thanks for the great welcome and food

Love place great portuguese food. Reasonable prices. Excellent service.

Stunning food, amazing service and very reasonably priced

Family owned business service with a smile absolutely delicious food staff was pleasent and helpful, the chef does an amazing meal was worth every penny and I will be back again addicted to the food already 🫶 clean and tidy also toilets spick and span

Traditional portuguese restaurant with a lot of traditional portuguese food, including meat, fish and other seafood. Tasty starters as well and desserts. The service in there is quite fast and they try to pay attention to everyone. Very affordable prices for the food quality.

Boa refeição ,boa gente ,Um saboroso cafe ,ou sobremesa ,bom ambiente conversar com amigos em português

3 of us went here today. Had 2 chicken (one grilled and one special), salad and lasagne (son) plus some olives and bread to start. Felt like we were back in Portugal. Unpretentious but really good quality food and a big change from the deep fried fare on the sea front. Definitely seek it out - the house wine is great too plus the fire water (Cape Verde) I had with my espresso! There’s a big Portuguese popular in Great Yarmouth so some good spots to seek out. Best meal so far from a week in Gt Yarmouth!

Wonderful food and great service. I would highly recommend!

Nice relaxing feel about the place, no pretence, just good food and rice with everything. Check it out but if you eat too much bread & olives to start you won't finish your main mal.

What can 1 say, this was a last minute decision but 1 we are certainly not regretting, From the minute we walked through the door the service was fantastic and if we thought things couldn't get any better the food then came out, the portion size is amazing and the taste well.. it leaves you wanting more if only you could eat more. This is a restaurant that is going places. Well done to all involved.

We stumbled across Galante and stopped for lunch on our way to the sea life center, what an absolute treat, the staff were really friendly and the food was absolutely delicious, we had the most amazing simple soup followed by huge juicy garlic prawns with chunks of bread to dip in the sauce. Worth going to Great Yarmouth for!

Asked in a local pub for a restaurant recommendation and they directed us here. Great fresh food and wonderful friendly service. Happy to recommend and will definitely be back.

I love this place, by far my favourite restaurant in the area. The owner and staff are fantastic and the food is outstanding

My wife wanted Portuguese food for a birthday meal. We dined here and that's exactly what she had.. Authentic traditional Portuguese food cooked to perfection along with some lovely Portuguese wine, beautiful! To add to the occasion, we arrived at our table to find birthday decorations and a balloon thrown in. A great evening had. thank you, see you again soon. Gary & Julie, Kilbrannan Guest House
