Granary Stores and Tea Shop in Broadland

Popped in for lunch after our excellent boat trip on Liana next door. Clean & welcoming with super fast service. We both had the leak & potato soup. Piping hot, perfect consistency with bite size lumps of potato plus strips of leak. It needed absolutely no seasoning, a superb taste, with bread & butter. We agreed probably the best we’ve ever had! Many thanks!!

Amazing breakfast in this really wonderful cafe. I chose the small breakfast which was great value and the best breakfast I have had in a long time. All quality ingredients and the sausage was delicious . The latte was in a large mug and tasted great. Good choice of breakfast items on their menu. The lady who served us was really cheerful and friendly, a credit to this cafe! We decided to sit inside as the decor was so nice. There was plenty of seating outside too with views of Ranworth Broad. I can’t wait to return.

Lovely location, super staff and a good menu with nice food. It can be busy but that’s good and on a sunny day the outside patio is gorgeous

Bought some things in the shop. Young woman on the till went to get the card machine so I said sorry. A man who I presume is the owner said “I don’t know why everyone says sorry. Just go and get cash out from the post office”. It is 2024 and I hardly know any young people who carry cash or even cards now - we use our phones for everything. So even if I wanted to I couldn’t go and get cash out. Unnecessarily rude thing to say to someone who is giving you any money at all. Not a welcoming atmosphere

This is a lovely spot for lunch or morning coffee. The staff were helpful and friendly and it had a cosy atmosphere. We had very tasty soup followed by good coffee. There is a fantastic range of cakes although they had run out of a few by 2pm as it is a very popular place. It was difficult to park directly by it so we used the large almost empty Malsters pub carpark, not sure if that is allowed! It is worth going to the Ranworth visitor centre before or after, it is 15 to 20 minutes along a board walk and there are binoculars and telescopes to view the wildlife on the Broad.

This coffee shop was perfect for what we wanted. We had coffee and cake whilst watching the world go by at the marina. The coffee was good quality and the cake was homemade and had great flavour.

We moored overnight and decided to extend our stay so we could have lunch the following day. And we are so glad we did. The restaurant/cafe itself is beautifully decorated, the service was superb and the food was fantastic. Our best lunch out on the Broads!

The food was delicious, very well prepared and presented, absolutely loved the Sea Bass which I had for my main. This is a lovely little restaurant right by the water and overlooking the boats moored nearby. Will definitely visit again. Anya, the Chef is only 18 years young and very talented, can’t wait to sample more of her food. The staff were great but I have to give a shout out to Tina, who made sure that we had everything we needed to make a lovely evening and meal. Hope to see you all soon.

Best burger in the Broads!! We’ve tried several on this trip and this was the BEST! My wife’s chicken pasta Alfredo was excellent. And the chocolate brownie and sticky toffee pudding was superb. I understand that you have a young chef - she will go far. Great meal and service. Many thanks

What a super place to eat and be sociable. This was the third visit here and it won’t be the last. Superb food and such friendly and helpful service. The location on the edge of Malthouse Broad simply cannot be faulted. Please visit soon, you’ll certainly enjoy.

Superb! Attended as a group of 11 people for a Boat Club dinner. Service was attentive. Food was excellent. Drinks reasonably priced too. We had a great night and staff were so friendly. Thank you so much, we will be back soon!

Lovely location. Pleasant and comfortable interior, plenty of outdoor tables. Food is good - leave room for cake. Coffee ok. Dog friendly

Fantastic food amazing service highly recommend one thing I would say is definitely book your table if dinning for the evening will definitely return 😀

Moored overnight and on arrival we had drinks and a light lunch; we both enjoyed. We decided to return for breakfast in the morning because it was Monday and it’s closed in the evenings. Staff are pleased and attentive My salmon and mushrooms omelette was great. My husband had a small full English breakfast and he enjoyed it. The ambience was great and welcoming

One of the best breakfasts I've had. We were boating on the broads and really hungry. Our breakfast ticked all the boxes and the service was lovely. Would love to visit again next time we're on the broads - really first class. Although we had breakfast there, we heard from other diners that their dinner service and offering is also superb so would like to try that next time.

Friendly staff, good atmosphere and lovely baguette sandwiches. Went the extra mile for my wife who is vegan to check all ingredients were vegan friendly. Along with good coffees well worth the visit.

Most of the Broads boating community will be familiar with Ranworth Staithe. The Granary is a cracking cafe/restaurant on the green at the staithe. We have had breakfast there 3 times now and we will certainly be back next time we are afloat.

Called in with a view to trying for the evening dinner sitting, wife had a granary ham sandwich which was very nice, pot of tea for two again good and also soya milk available another plus point. I had a ham baguette which was inedible, one of those part backed efforts which I have no idea how they made it so bad, raw with some ham thrown in. Wife’s sandwich had a few crisps and some salad nice, mine was as title inedible with no “finesse” at all. Such a shame, plus the whole café talking about where the toilet was and who was next in the queue was not an ambience I will be experiencing again. Give it a go, but avoid the baguette, I hope you do better than I did.

Fantastic food , Fantastic Staff Always happy to see us, makes our holidays worth the drive from Somerset

Visited this gem of a restaurant four times on our recent holiday on the broads three times for breakfast and once for the best evening meal we had on our two weeks holiday. The breakfasts were brilliant, served by the friendliest staff ( nothing was too much trouble). The evening meal was amazing cooked to perfection by an 18 year old genius and served by super friendly staff. We visited from Scotland for 2weeks the weather was amazing and this place was the icing on the cake. Best food and service on the broads so if you're visiting this area don't miss it!!!!! Can't wait to be back in may!!!!!

We have been visiting the granary now for the last 12 months and this visit we have had breakfast her every morning for a week, each day we are greeted by Emma and Jessica with smiling faces and great service, the mother and daughter team really can not have done more for us. The ladies in the back cook a fantastic breakfast which keeps you going all day. Thank you to all the team and we will see you again in October. Paul and Sarah

As we were new to this kind of holiday we were recommended to this cafe/restaurant and found it to be excellent food and great service with very friendly staff. Felt very welcomed.Thankyou to all.

Excellent evening. Food was really good. Prices were very good value. Lovely music outside. A real good evening

Fantastic menu and food, such a shame a couple took over a six seater table and coveted it with their laptops, didn't know The Granery was a Internet cafe ?

This little gem is absolutely amazing, never had a bad experience, from breakfast to evening meals you won't find a better place. Staff are amazing and always polite and welcoming. Yes we eat here often when we are in this neck of the woods as...

We ordered breakfast during breakfast service hours, mid-morning coffee & lunch during lunch service hours. Food & prices were good, however, after being there for 3 hours, working at our laptops whilst caring for our 5-month old baby & ordering accordingly the owner came over...

Amazing food, top marks for the sea bass and garlic butter 👌🏼 Presentation 5* Taste 5* Would definitely return and recommend!

The service and Breakfast menu is 5 star we enjoyed the full English breakfast (couldn’t keep us away)! its excellent value and the views are unbeatable be back soon!

Lovely beside the river or eat inside. Super food, with lots to choose from, friendly and good service

It is a lovely café and restaurant in one place overlooking the Ranworth Broads, tea, coffee and cakes available, also alcohol is served, pleasant staff and lovely room to eat your meal, you can also sit outside, parking is available near to the store where...

I work for a Care Home and decided to take some of our residents out for lunch today, We were pleasantly surprise with this place and the location. Parking for bus right outside which always helpful for us. Before we even got inside the tea...

Fantastic food, reasonably priced. Lovely comfortable interior and friendly customer service. Would definitely recommend.

Absolutely lovely ice-cream with lots of flavours to choose from. The shop is really nice too. A friendly welcome from the owner and his wife

Overpriced and a bit confused to what this restaurant is trying for. I had 2 fish cakes, tasted quite nice but minimal salmon and mostly mashed potato. Bit confused about having it with salad as fish cake made salad a bit soggy. I would prefer...

Wanted provision but £5 charge to moor, the person taking the money said I could have 10 to get groceries without paying fee but was counting time, didn’t stop.

Great find and great service! Emma and Jessica were so welcoming. Lovely decor and great food. Highly recommend.

Popped in this this new fantastic restaurant on Saturday night, great to taste Freshly prepared food, what a change to discover this brilliant venue. Service was spot on with our meal arriving within 20 minutes. Our meal was cooked exactly as we ordered, fresh tasty...

I dined here for breakfast about a week ago and would like to highly recommend. The food was excellent and nothing was too much for the members of staff. It's the best customer service that we have received in years. Will definitely be returning.

Lovely lunch with baguettes, and sandwiches. I was particularly pleased that the Americanos were served piping hot. Great refurb, welcoming, warm, cosy and comfy sofas. Very reasonable prices, and great service from the waitress, who helped me to discreetly pay to prevent another relative from...

The granary has recently opened for evening meals and is highly recommended. We had a lovely meal with starters and mains which were just about manageable as the mains portions are generous. The model here seems to be big flavours rather than ponce. Service was...

Great breakfast and very competitive pricing. Very pleasant and comfortable atmosphere and quite simply the best customer service I’ve seen in my 61 years! I used to teach this and I wish I’d had a video of the member of staff who served us at...

OMG Like every good story, Let’s start at the end, £57 for a meal and drinks worthy of a bill in excess of £150!! We are talking 2 starter, two main meals and 1 desert. (The steak is fantastic BTW) Now for the beginning of...

Thanks for such a lovely breakfast this morning. The breakfast menu has lots of different options from cereal and granola to pancakes, haddock, omelettes or full english. We had the small english and haddock and eggs. Both were excellent: fresh and not greasy. We’ve been...

Beautiful food. Well presented and lovely atmosphere. Would strongly recommend this establishment.

Clean bright tea room, pleasant staff, good selection of sandwiches baguettes jacket potatoes salads and cakes. However I was very disappointed with the cheese scone. I couldn’t taste any cheese..could easily have been a plain one. Gave some to my husband..all he could taste was...

The tea shop where i had a full English Breakfast this morning and it was very good, the egg was cooked just right and with no extra grease or fat like you get in some places!! the bacon was not over cooked, again like to...

Very friendly staff in both establishments. Food and service was good in the Tea Shop. The Granary Stores owner was very cheerful. It's a bigger shop than it looks from the outside.

My wife & I visited this delightful tea shop last week. We sat outside looking out onto Ranworth Broad. The coffees (fully processed) and a very generous slice of homemade cakes were enjoyed.Highly recommended.Will go again !!

I patiently waited my turn for a coffee and scone. The man in front asked for a glass of water the waitress said water was free and on the side table help yourself. She watched him pour a glass of water after he had paid...

Stopped for lunch yesterday, lovely setting , but unfortunately found a long hair under my salad, needless to say it put me off , I told the young lady on the till , I stressed I didn’t want a refund as I had eaten most...

We had moored up the night before, so had breakfast here. Very friendly staff and the food was good, poached eggs. The shop is ok for some basic provisions. All in all a nice setting to spend a sunny afternoon.

Friendly staff, beautiful setting both inside and outside. Lovely breakfast options and all tasted great. The store next door was useful as well. All next to a great place for us to moor our boat, sadly limited parking spaces a problem, but a big open...

Most things of offer here and nice seating outside by the broad. Our Coronation chicken baguette was excellent.

Called in at lunchtime and was very impressed with the selection of delicious looking cakes. Nice selection is salads, baguettes/sandwiches and light bites. They are licensed too if you want something with your lunch. Really friendly staff and nice decor if you want to sit...

Lovely place to enjoy a coffee and light lunch overlooking Malthouse Broad and Ranworth Moorings. Outside seating is available for those warm days!

I have been a regular here for some years, living 6-7 miles away. Arriving today I was expecting the same great food and drinks, duly delivered, but now in a totally redesigned interior which is WOW! Excellent customer service, a handy shop, and to top...

We had moored up overnight and we wanted to get some supplies in the morning, so we used the shop and bought some items for lunch. We then noticed the cafe next door and decided to have a cooked breakfast. Wow as soon as we...

Fantastic new décor. I had the Full English Breakfast here this morning, the quality and quantity of the food is excellent and the service was fantastic. Will definitely be back visiting soon.

Popped in for coffee and cake one morning. We were lucky with the weather and sat outside to enjoy the view, but the cafe was very smart inside too. The staff were very friendly. Some people were having cooked breakfasts which looked delicious. Spotlessly clean...

Had a lovely meal here with friends, fresh cooked. Delightful area. Has shop, art gallery and tea room. Hosts were so pleasant, service excellent AND they sell doggy ice cream. Perfect

Bought some supplies in the shop after finding nowhere to shop in South Waltham . Had a fine cup of tea and scone before the walk back to our boat moored at Fleet Dyke. Recommend both the shop and the tea room

This place is a little gem. There is a large variety of food, tea and coffees to choose from . We ate there twice because the food was so nice and plentiful. We both opted for a Wherrymans platter. This is essentially a Ploughmans lunch...

Ranworth is a pretty little village and a popular mooring for Broad users. The tea shop is a lovely little find though. We had a tea, hot choc and a fabulous piece of rich fruit cake which was simply delicious. Well worth a detour if...

Reading the earlier review about the Golliwogs on sale I also had the same experience. I swept them all of the shelf and was about to talk to the proprietor but then discovered key ring versions hanging on a rack beside the til. This shocked...

We called into The Granary Tea Shop for lunch and had two of the Wherryman's Platters. Very nicely presented. We had the chicken breast option and it was a whole chicken breast - not just a few slices. Very reasonable price and lovely staff. We...

The Granary is in a lovely situation very close to the staithe at Ranworth. We had a lovely cup of coffee and delicious cakes. Nice friendly staff. Upstairs is a gallery and a small shop adjoins - ideal for buying a few essentials or a...

Asked if the sweets were vegan and the lady had the audacity to ask me if my boots were leather. No in fact they were not BUT it’s none of your business and you don’t have to be so patronising and damn right rude. I...

Beautiful setting. Fantastic to watch wildlife. Excellent tearooms. Most enjoyable coffee and exceedingly nice cakes and teacakes

Perfect for boaters mooring at Ranworth Staithe. Masks must be worn inside the shop and social distancing observed but they had a nice selection of fresh fruit and we bought some excellent Victoria Plums.

Unfortunately had really gritty ice cream. The man in the shop didn’t want to know and did his best to patronise me saying it was ‘quality ice cream’ and that there was nothing with it. No apology, no replacement. Accepted two full tubs back on...

Excellent sandwiches and jacket potatoes at very realistic prices. Good pleasant service. Nice outside seating area overlooking the boats.

Very limited stocks in the store, but better than nothing for some provisions - not a single packet of cigarettes left for instance. Rather horrifying one sees still the Gollyw_gs on sale I recall reading about 'racist dolls' on the web, which rather reflects the...

This is a great place to grab coffee and cake but the interior, although spotless, feel slightly old fashioned - bit like visiting my nan's (nothing wrong but nothing right). Lovely outside seating area. Apple pie was great but slice quite small.

We visited Ranworth on a beautiful summers afternoon and it was quite busy. We went in to the Granary stores for a coffee. For those of you old enough to remember what the 1970’s were like - it’s just like that. Very smart, very clean...

I visited on Tuesday 4th August. The cafe was not over busy and we got a table straight away. The food was very nice and we did not have a long wait. The only apparent sign of making changes due to Covid 19 was the...

When visiting this shop while on holiday with my family last week I was disgusted to find Golliwog figures on sale. When I approached the proprietor and explained that these items are racist and offensive he told me I was entitled to my opinion but...

Only tried afternoon tea and cake and can't fault it. Victoria sponge melted in mouth. Nice view over broad and seating inside or out.

Not many convenient stores at the Broads but this one is nice with a good choice of stuff. The tea room next door offers cake and tasty snacks.

We visited this place on a hot day in July. We had to sit outside because of our friends dog. Unfortunately there was very little shade provide. There only seemed to be one member of staff who muddled our order.

We popped in when on a day hire on a boat. Mooring just outside the dyke although it does say day boats can use the dyke but it was too busy. We just had Jacket potatoes with various toppings and some has sandwiches. It was...

Good cuppa and decent cake, (l although the carrot cake was a bit over sweet). Not dog friendly like most places in the Broads as cannot take dog inside and no shade outside.

We enjoyed a delicious cream tea here during our stop on a boat. They also offer other food during the day and attached is a small store selling basic provisions and great ice cream.

Visited on Thursday 23rd May. We called in here to have a look and ended up buying an ice cream to enjoy in the sunshine outside.

Stopped off for coffee and cake, great views over the Broad and boats moored up. Coffee good, cake dry and had that manufactured taste, not very welcoming. Shame it could be so much better

The number of shops on broads getting smaller and smaller do great to have this shop available. It stocks all.basics at reasonable prices so you can always get fresh bread milk and things to make a meal.friendly service.

Various choice , they have the monopoly as no other competition. Not overly friendly or accommodating. Ice creams nice.

Nice venue, friendly staff, good food. What more can I say? Pity they don't open for evening meals - they could break the monopoly of the pub!

Great tea shop, well worth a visit. We had coffees and lemon drizzle cake. Wow superb. Sitting outside in sunshine with coffee and cake it doesn’t get any better.

Right on the staithe and next to the car park, Granary Stores have plenty of essentials for campers and boaters and also plenty of Norfolk gifts

This is a nice little store stocking basic food, newspapers and books. Very handy as its next to where the boats moore

Visit the granary stores when we moor up at the Staithe for an ice cream. Great choice of flavours to choose from and really creamy.

The service is great and the food excellent. We called for a coffee break and had cake with our drinks. They were special cakes - mine was corgette and lime - and they tasted great. Some other people were having various Jacket Potatoes and they...
