Margo's Lounge in Great Yarmouth

Seemed a very popular place. Service was good and the 70s ambience took me back to my youth!

A really antiquie trendy style. Mixed seating.. very ckean.. interesting decor... home cooking. Has LifeBoat support and souvenirs in basement

A very quirky place all in a good way. Great staff, lovely food just a fabulous little gem (not that little) if you don't believe me find out for yourself..... Best to book but we were a walk in but just got lucky.... Don't miss out you will regret it.....

Went to Margos Lounge for a cream tea for my Birthday with family. Had a great experience food was Really tasty, fresh, looked great, plenty to eat and was given a take home box. Staff were very polite and helpful will definitely do this again and recommend you. Thanks Margos & keep up the good work.

Went for a catchup with a friend last week... great little place... as usual food delicious

Great little Cafe, good choices especially for vegan, good service too

Had afternoon tea here great service food was amazing will defo be going back :)

Great gluten free options lovely staff always

Absolutely loved this gem! Found it on our holiday to Gorleston-on-Sea and enjoyed the food & drinks so much. The staff were lovely with our little boys too and the decor is awesome 👍 Many thanks for a great experience!

Love Margo's and love visiting the RNLI shop downstairs

We recently had a baby shower for a friend here and it was perfect. The staff were so accommodating. We arrived early to set up and the area we had was perfect. The decor is lovely and quirky. Staff friendly and welcoming. Food was really good. We had the afternoon tea and it was worth every penny. The staff checked on us throughout and topped up drinks when needed. Thank you ! I would definitely recommend.

Food was lovely. Staff were great. However there was no indication on their website prior to attending that booking would be advised. I haven't visited since before Covid and so thought all the covid booking things would have stopped by now but apparently they still take lots of bookings. The staff managed to squeeze us in but then we felt rushed to leave as that table was booked for a little later. I will definitely come back but will now be booking ahead! Oh and the cakes are amazing!

Had afternoon tea there for the very first time. What an absolute treat. The sandwiches, sausage rolls, scones ( sweet & savoury) & of course, the cakes were really tasty & delicious plus unlimited tea & filter coffee .Will definitely be back , once I’ve lost the stone in weight gained !

Fab place, comfortable, great polite service and a super price. Will be back.

My wife and I had an afternoon tea..... It was amazing.

Great place to eat or have a coffee and cake. Good selection. Retro atmosphere. Transports you back to the 70's.

OMG!!! What an Afternoon Tea, it was brilliant, the staff are lovely ,just can't fault a thing. All cooked for you at the time .

Called to book a table, was told they don’t take reservations but plenty of tables so just turn up. My friend and I arrived (we don’t live locally) to be greeted by tables with reserved signs on and some rude older lady who announced they had no room and even if they did there was a 45 min wait ‘so I have nothing more to say to you’ Such a shame as the younger staff I have encountered on previous occasions have always been lovely. Won’t be visiting again - overpriced anyway. Sort your customer service skills out!! Rude!

Friendly staff. Lovely cake. Quirky crockery. Good price. A nice little place to catch up with a friend over tea, cake and coffee.

My husband and I were given a voucher as a Christmas gift for afternoon tea. We were shown to our table and brought teas and coffees. The cheese and cucumber, ham and mustard and egg mayonaise sandwiches were presented beautifully on one plate, as were the sausage rolls, salad and cheese scones on another. On a 2 tier cake plate were chocolate slices, victoria sponges and fruit scones with jam and clotted cream. The cakes also had cream on them and lots of fresh fruit. Staff were extremely friendly and attentive enough without being over bearing. Altogether a wonderful experience.

Very friendly staff Having today's special of Sweet Potato and carrot soup, very lightly spiced and warming on this freezing day Also popped into the RNLI shop in the cellar (Tues-Sat, 10-2). Volunteers also friendly with a nice range of gifts to buy

Lovely casual cafe. A mish mash of styles make it feel very welcoming. The cakes are excellent, as the coffee. Would definitely visit again.

A sweet little cafe with a nice choice for breakfast and drinks. A good price and the food was lovely. A friendly service.

Quirky little place off the beaten track. Definitely worth seeking out

Nice little place to grab a drink and bite to eat, Staff are nice also.

Nice little coffee/tea shop, very quaint we stopped for coffee and a cake. Cake was beautifuly home made and delicious and coffee was good too. Definitely will make this our go to place when we move near by.

Lovely place food and atmosphere

Wonderful , welcoming staff serve their amazing food with a smile . Great choice on the menu at good prices too. Lovely place , can’t recommend enough

Always such a lovely place to visit. Have enjoyed several afternoon teas here and would recommend. Friendly staff, tasty delicious food and good value also. Love the 70s theme of the cafe and a lovely atmosphere.

Lovely place to eat and drink, brilliant staff.

Love this place so welcoming food is yummy and really nice atmosphere

Passionate and friendly service for takeaway service for cakes which are delicious. Highly recommended and like the quirky furniture in the cafe too!

Big favourite of mine and regular meetups with the girls. Great place, very traditional and good coffee and cakes.

Friendly staff good quality food wide range on menu homemade cakes service with a smile probably the best cafe in Gorleston on sea.

Great restaurant. Had coffee and a generous slice of cake which was delicious. I would highly recommend you try this place. Staff very friendly and welcoming.

We came here for afternoon tea and to give our son a small lunch after leaving the beach. After reading amazing reviews we had such high hopes for this place. However it was clear we didn't fit the standards of their cafe. As we arrived at 2pm we saw that there was a big sofa with 2 seats around it available and two mini sofas further up around a table also available. Otherwise the place was full. The waitress of the cafe came over and said "There are no seats available to seat us" in which my dad replied that we are happy to sit separately. The waitress then walked over to the chef and they spoke briefly before she returned and said they wouldn't be able to cook us food as there is only 1 chef today. I looked around to see every other table had food at their table, including a table of 4 people which was only one less than we had with us. We chose to just leave as it was clear we wasn't wanted there. Upon reading other reviews on various sites, we feel that we weren't welcomed due to having our little boy with us. As other people had complained in the past of how they were treated when bringing children. Thankfully we found a place called Sea Breeze Cafe which is so welcoming to children and families and the food was absolutely beautiful! I would much more recommend going there instead.

Best goats cheese salad around! Ladies who work there are lovely.

Lovely lunch and space for a big buggy!! Definetly returning

The whole place is lovely, as are the staff. 😀

Amazing afternoon tea but even more amazing value . Lovely fresh made and baked on premises afternoon tea in this pretty quirky lovely cafe , lots of savoury and sweet treats highly recommended, great staff , perfect treat for my friend

went to Margo's for breakfast. Had full English which tasted devine! The cakes looked delicious and I loved the decor. Very clean cafe and the staff were friendly and efficient.

The staff run a fabulous cafe. Great service. They are very considerate and friendly. Good quality food - breakfasts - sandwiches - cake. Well worth a visit.

Quirky little place very clean and staff can't do enough for you food excellent and Victoria sponge cake is amazing

Had coffee with home made scones, very nice too

Went on Saturday night and an excellent live band was playing. Had great Nacho platter.

Homemade cakes are excellent, coffee great, service spot on and decor is quirky and fun!

Beautiful cafe/restaurant in gorleston. Food, Atmosphere and staff amazing! It always feels like a special treat going here.

Lovely staff, so accommodating, one of our party was ill and we had a fab box of goodies to take home.I love Margos, so helpful and friendly and the afternoon tea was lovely, sausage rolls, scones and cakes.... yum!

My friend and I recently went to Margo’s for afternoon tea. We were served promptly and the staff were very polite and friendly. The feast that followed was delicious, sandwiches, sausage rolls, scones and cream, mince pies, brownies, the list goes on! It was lovely and fresh, and the tea and coffee was constantly refilled. The surroundings are nice and quirky, we really enjoyed it. We didn’t manage to eat everything, and were given boxes to take the leftovers home. Very good price too and hIghly recommend.

You know how you think somewhere is just perfect and couldn't possibly get any better? Well Margo's just proved me totally wrong. Calling in on Friday to meet a friend for coffee and cake - as always spoiled for choice. I chose the spiced orange and mincemeat cake which took yumminess to a new level. Featherlight sponge, tangy with orange then sliced through with gloriously Christmassy mincemeat. I was then tempted to order the spiced apple drink - oh my days, it was FAB-U-LOUS! Can't wait to return and try it all over again. Thank you!

We had a brilliant lunch in margo's I had halloumi & sweet sweet chilli panini 😋 it came with a beautiful salad & very tasty coleslaw & crisps, my husband had the waffles with bacon & syrup, both our meals were absolutely delicious !! With wonderful surroundings and lovely staff, we had a really nice chat with the ladys there one if whom we ask about the area because we had just bought a house only 5minutes up the road !!, we will certainly go back and be a regular there !!! The atmosphere of the place is very special with all the vintage items and a real record player that plays fabulous music, I also found it pleasant that the tables are not cramed together, another lovely touch is the crockery it's all vintage, its like having a meal in your nans lounge !! We loved it :)

Thanks to the Karolyn Hubbard at Margo's lounge. After the clowns at DPD delivered my parcel to Gorleston in Norfolk instead of Nottingham, she took it to the post office and had it delivered it to me at her own cost. With such lovely people I am sure the scones and coffee must be amazing! I will be sure to pop in when in the area.

Amazing food and coffee, lovely cute quirky place and very friendly service. Also baby-friendly which made for a relaxing breakfast with our little girl

We had a lovely vegan breakfast at Margo's Lounge. Coffee was best I had in the area by far and service was so friendly and warm. Very flexible with menu choices. Noticed that most tables were reserved and we were lucky to get one. Suggest...

Popped in to this establishment 3 adults , 1 x 5yr old around 2.20 to be told there were no tables to fit us on, although the larger tables were taken by 2 adults only. The waitress then pointed to a table for 3 or...

My husband and I booked afternoon tea. It was amazing! Absolutely delicious and very reasonably priced. My dietary needs were catered for really well. Staff were really warm and friendly and made sure we had everything we needed and offered us another pit of tea.

Went here after reading good reviews and was not disappointed. Very welcoming, great food and very covid safe. Would highly recommend.

A Pleasant interlude with friends was spent . The customer service was not bad , some of the staff are a little rusty. Which is understandable. I was disappointed with my choice , but, because the atmosphere was so good , I am happy to...

Wonderful little place where the friendly staff will serve you good food with lots to choose from and whats more do a nice cup of coffee. We will be going back

Margo's is the type of cafe I dream of when I'm visiting a town, I ate there with my teenage daughter and we both enjoyed our meals : waffles with bacon and syrup, and chicken with mango salsa, which we swapped half way through. Very...

Had Afternoon Tea to celebrate Mum’s 90th Birthday. Was recommended Margo’s and was not disappointed. The staff put themselves out to make the occasion extra special. Would recommend Margo’s for a all occasions. Thank you again Margo’s. Linda and family

We visited in September. It’s such a hidden gem. We both had the full English breakfast which came with toast. It was delicious. You can tell the bacon and sausage were really good quality. The coffee was also delicious. Service was wonderful and the staff...

This was my second time here, this time for breakfast. The staff are very friendly. Menu is good. And service was great. I went for the waffles with banana and syrup. It was lovely. Will definitely come back again Thank you

Margo's remains the best cafe there is. It was lovely to be able to eat in again. They have excellent social distancing measures in place and they are clearly following the guidance. The staff are so helpful too. The food as always is brilliant. I...

We ate at Margo,s twice once inside and once outside both times food and service was excellent. Staff were exceptional on one occasion it was a Wednesday and the Government deal was on, went in to see if any tables available, was told no but...

A lovely coffee and breakfast while I had a Zoom meeting with friends. The setting was gorgeous ,coffee beautifully strong and avocado on sourdough perfect.

Good food little overpriced and small portions would go again. Nice feel to place seats bit hard. Parking space close by. Best to book a table

Had afternoon tea with four friends today and it was excellent both for taste and value. Certainly stands alongside The Swan at Southwold and the Assembly House in Norwich

Found Margo’s on Tripadvisor while in the area. Quite a big place on a residential street not far from the beach. I was surprised to find quite a nice buzz even on a weekday lunchtime in January. Service friendly and helpful. Nice fairly simple menu. Fresh ingredients. Reasonably priced. Would go again.

Love this place, love the 70s decor. Food here is very good, lots of healthy options with some good smoothies / shakes. Service was good. Thank you!

First-time visit. Will definitely return. Fantastic selection of sandwiches, including vegetarian options. Breakfast is served all day. A wide range of drinks from hot drinks to cold drinks to milkshake to alcohol range too. As for the cake? Fantastic and such a good portion size too! Booking and reservations highly recommend.

Went for lunch and was not disappointed. Very friendly staff and a good selection of food with plenty healthy options that were all reasonably priced. Soup of the day was fab!

I have been to Margo's on numerous occasions and have never had any reason to complain about the food or staff but on my last visit I was spoken to very bluntly by one member of staff so didn't stay and will not be returning. However bad your day is the customer should come first and your stress should not be taken out on your customers.

This is my first visit, parking could be a problem but just look around and spaces can be found. We were given a very warm greeting and quickly shown to our table which we had booked. A good selection of food catering for the modern trend of vegan and gluten free. The pumpkin soup was made fresh that day as it a,ways is, and was extremely delicious. There is also live music in the evenings , but check the dates. Plent of room with below stairs as well. Within walking distance of the sea front .

Needed somewhere to eat before an appointment at the hospital with my daughters. Found this on trip advisor. What a smashing place, friendly staff, good selection of food and eclectic crockery made an unexpectedly delightful lunch. Really recommend and will take a special trip to revisit soon. Parking can be found on the road.

Having seen great reviews for the food and a previous review stating you could sit in a courtyard with dogs. We made a special journey to visit. Unfortunately, my husband went in to ask where we could sit with the dogs, to be told they could put us a seat out on the pavement, no mention of a courtyard. This would have meant us sitting on a residential street pavement. We declined. Whilst the offer was appreciated it would have not been enjoyable.

Popped in and had a fresh orange juice and brie and caramelized onion open sandwich this came with a lovely bean salad. This is such an attractive place to eat either on your own or with friends for a catch up very reasonably priced they also do amazing scones, sausage rolls I took home two slices of apricot and almond sponge cake which was wonderful.

Found Margo's purely last minute on a very hot day last week whilst out on a bike ride as we wanted lunch, but not a cafe, something nice and tasty with cakes - Margo's fitted the bill perfectly, it came up on a Google search :-)

Very impressed with the sandwiches - the bread was delicious and it was really good of them to swap the coleslaw for a bean salad when I told them I was vegan! Only improvement would be if the staff were a little more personable.

We gave often been to Margo's and meet up with friends - we both have children age 6 and a 2yr old - they all love it too.

During the recent heatwave we went in here just before 9am on a Tuesday in July hoping for a cooked breakfast and discovered they don't do full English, what a shame. They do have other things so I had a scrambled egg on toast and my husband had a cheese and pickle on toast.

Recommended by our hotel staff this coffee lounge filled all our expectations a pot of tea for two ,lemon cake and Cherry scone and clotted cream quirky but brilliant friendly staff ,good quick service ,if you are in the area well worth the effort to go karen

Found Margo’s whilst visiting Gorleston-on-Sea for a hospital visit with a friend. This place is quirky, staff are very friendly and the scones are the best I’ve tasted. Would highly recommend Margo’s.

I regularly meet with friends at Margo's, for breakfast, lunch and the occasional quiz night. You can not beat the homemade freshly prepared food. There is something for everyone, being a vegetarian i love the tomatoes on toast, absolutely delicious. The service is friendly and quick. Such a lovely atmosphere.

A chance call meant we headed for breakfast at Margo's lovely old surroundings converted from a former gentleman's Outfitters. We were met by friendly smiles from the staff service was quick the families choice was to extensive to record here I had bacon with maple syrup pancakes with a very good coffee I would recommend for breakfast, light lunch or afternoon tea.

Me and the boyfriend arrived here after checking in to the local hotel and after 3 hours of driving. I’m so glad he chose here! I had a paprika chicken and mango salsa open, he had the prawn and sweet chilli. Both were unreal, even the salad it came with was lovely with a really nice dressing. Even he ate the salad and he rarely does so! I honestly have not that anything that good for a very long time, we loved the decor and the service was lovely and friendly. We didn’t stop talking about it for the whole holiday! Great value, and would recommend to anyone in the area.

My first impressions were very positive. I and another had arranged to meet up with three others at Margo's for lunch on a very cold day, and we two arrived earlier than anticipated. Although the Lounge was busy, a member of the staff suggested that we sat at a five seater table until the others arrived, which was about ten minutes later and in the meantime we had a very good value pot of tea for two. When the rest of the party arrived, we all gave our respective orders and all our meals were excellent - good value and very well presented. I would recommend this restaurant, both for the attentive service and for the value and presentation of the meals

I joined my friend for her Birthday celebration for an afternoon tea here at this quirky place & the food was amazing! We had a selection of finger sandwiches,warm sausage rolls & cheese scones, crackers, cheese & relish, then came some beautifully presented warm scones,jam & cream, meringues & cream, & a selection of other bite-size cakes & any type of teas & coffees that you wanted with plenty of top-ups, the service was excellent & we all enjoyed ourselves & were given containers to take leftovers. I can thoroughly recommend visiting here especially for the afternoon tea. Can't wait to visit again!

We came along to margos lounge as two friends who wanted a nice bit of cake and a cuppa tea , I had heard so much about this place and had to give it a try.

Superb food, quirky surroundings with attentive and caring staff. I can not recommend this cafe enough.

Lovely little venue a real gem. Went with parents and son we particularly enjoyed discussing all the kitch retro accessories.

Recently visited Margos Lounge Cafe and it was great! Awesome decor, and the food was delicious, the cake was amazing too! Some fab table games too which helped in distracting the little one! Would recommend

We came here after shopping just before lunch service started at 11:30 and breakfast was still available, such choice! Even on a Monday morning it was full upstairs and so it was the first time to eat downstairs, really nice, we were on our own to chat but not left alone, the waitress didn't forget about us and the service was faultless. We started with a pot of tea for 2, so nice in a 1970's teapot and milk jug, and 2 tea cups and saucers. Nothing matches but that's so charming. I had french toast with honey nuts and creme fresh. Something different and delicious. My daughter had a tea cake and butter. All this for under £10. Such a treat without feeling guilty about the cost.

What a little gem..breakfast choice is superb and good value. Service is very good as is the pricing.Comfortable surroundings and retro feel gives out a feeling of days gone by..a good place to dream alittle.

Had the best full English breakfast here on Saturday...food all freshly cooked...piping hot. Washed down with a magnificent latte. Reasonable prices and excellent customer service. Quite a find.. .we will return ....I need to try the pancakes next. Only downside is parking.

Pulled in by the vivid Xmas decorations. Half expected to see a rickshaw parked inside :) Delicious hot chocolate. Had victoria sponge and scone. Delicious hot chocolate. Nice friendly staff. With a visit

What a lovely place, quirky decor with lots of fairy lights, we had a baby shower here and the ladies made some wonderful savoury and sweet treats with bottomless tea and coffee which was great. Nothing was too much trouble and the quality of the items served was exceptional. Margos offered a great vegan option too which was very varied and looked very tasty and tasted great from what my friend said. Great afternoon. Thank you.

Really love this place, have been a few times. Always friendly staff, always lovely cake but please sort out your cappuccino cups!! Yes I get the mis match crockery idea....it can work but getting a dainty vintage teacup with a cappuccino in simply does not work! Cup too small, but price the same as a regular size cappuccino. Hate to critizise but Margo’s would be 100% perfect for me if this was addressed!

Margo's is unique nothing in the lounge matches all the crockery is odd the chairs and the décor are all retro.The staff are wonderful but most importantly the food is gorgeous,all home-made and if you have the cream tea you are in for a treat.If you can't manage to eat it all boxes are provided to take what's left home.Overall a wonderful experience.

Went here with a friend who had visited previously and really rated the place. What a treat! It’s like stepping back in time. The furniture, the decor, the music. We ate breakfasts and drank tea and coffee and just enjoyed the atmosphere and chatted for hours here. They had the most amazing cakes on display which we didn’t have on this occasion so will be returning to sample these and taking members of my family to show them how great this place is.
