Norbury's Fine Foods in King's Lynn and West Norfolk - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

I have been here several times before for coffee, lunch , tea and cake Yes it’s a lovely atmosphere and food and drink lovely BUT Today I went with friends It was very busy and two waiting staff walked past us several times whilst waiting for a table Neither of them greeted us or said they would be with us soon Any way we got a table and ordered drinks service quick and drinks fine I used the toilet and it was not very clean and the sink had obviously not been cleaned for a while needed a good scrub Very disappointing for an establishment selling food and drink

It's a real asset to have this bakery in town. They use high quality ingredients and care and it shows. All the products are lovely and fresh. There is a pleasant place to eat and drink too.

Lovely light, airy cafe with space between the tables. In Norfolk for a few days staying with friends and we visited x2. Once for refreshments and then again for breakfast. Lovely tea served in unusual tea jugs and excellent coffee on offer. Would recommend the Bacon brioche rolls. Friendly helpful staff and a relaxing atmosphere. Would recommend.

Excellent coffee and cake - best tiffin I’ve had in years. Will definitely come back here very soon!. Sandwiches looked delicious and I will try them in my next visit.

My husband and I came in here for lunch for the first time. There was a queue to be seated, which suggested it would be worth trying the food. We both had the pesto chicken sourdough sandwich. Also, my husband had a portion of fries and I had the artichoke and sundried tomato salad with capers and onion crisps. We could not fault the taste and quality of the food. We enjoyed all of it. I felt it was a little pricey but we don't eat out often so I'll certainly return if we're ever in King's Lynn again and want something nice to eat.

I often visit Norbury's, whether to buy their bread and cakes, to purchase a takeaway hot drink for a friend, or to have brunch or lunch. Their breads, cakes and sausage rolls are delicious. I have been visiting for years, when they were in Tower Street, through the pandemic, and now in their relatively new location. They are my cafe of choice in Lynn, for the warmth of their welcome, the quality of their locally sourced food, and the efficiency of their service. They are unfailingly polite and helpful, in the face of some occasionally difficult customers. Happily, they have a growing number of regulars. It is so good to see a local couple doing so well, and the whole team works incredibly hard. My sister feels the same, and we enjoy meeting up with friends to enjoy a coffee, chai latte, or a savoury brioche bun, for example. I would recommend Norbury’s to anyone, I think you will enjoy it.

As always, a really lovely experience with friendly staff and delicious food. Whenever we go we are warmly welcomed. This is by far the best cafe in the town and the quality of food is very much worth the price. Yes it is not cheap but with everything being homemade I would much rather pay a little more for such good quality food. Thoroughly recommend this place to visitors and locals alike.

I just could not believe the awful reviews that had been posted recently. The food is amazing and the customer service goes above and beyond. I visited last Friday too and everything was consistent on both visits and definitely will recommend and return. Of course you have to wait to be seated because they make sure everything is clean and ready to go at your table. My food appeared without any delay. It’s cooked from fresh so I would always expect at least a 20min wait and was pleasantly surprised when it did arrive so promptly and hot. I can only speak as I find and I know how demoralising it can be to receive such negative feedback when the whole team is doing everything they can. I travelled 3.5 hrs today, 2bus changes to visit King Lynn knowing my first stop on arrival here would be Norburys for brunch and will be again. So a big thank you to all of your team front and back of the counter a smile and for their kindness I will add I’m sight impaired and was made to feel very comfortable and confident when I experienced Norburys on the first visit hence why I returned today.

My partner and I have used this Deli for a long time and have never been disappointed, the food, drinks and service are always excellent, sometimes we couldn’t get a table but now they have moved to bigger premises, once all this lockdown business is settled there will be more tables. The new decor is really nice, this is easily in the top 10 in the area and number one or us.

Lockdown means that the new premises (High Street) aren't really ready for dining in, so I took advantage of their delicious sandwiches and scones and picnicked at nearby Kings Staith. The sandwiches are simply the best you can get in town (so are the cheese scones). Great range of soft drinks too, including unusual ones like Dalston Rhubarb Fizz. Tea, coffee, cakes and sausage rolls are also available, but I'll have to try those another time.

Norberrys is the best place in Kings Lynn for homemade scones and sausage rolls. Can't wait for the cafe to open inside.

Following lockdown I cannot wait for these guys to open up fully. I patronise them during a lunch break and plan to buy maybe a scone or a loaf but always buy more. Homemade everything, awesome quality and well worth paying the slightly higher prices for such superior products. Yum yum!

Norbury's moved into new premises on corner of Norfolk Street and High Street just before lockdown. Plan for indoor seating stalled but you can get excellent takeaway coffee and cakes or pastries and there is outdoor seating. Recommended.

Bought some cakes from here and must say they were delicious. All seemed home made which makes a refreshing change.

What a wonderful little place this is, the food is lovely homemade and plentiful. The staff are friendly and it was clearly very popular with local workers at lunchtime. With cheese scones and fridge cakes were fabulous as were the homemade sausage rolls. Well worth a second, or third visit ;)

Very small eating area but you can usually find a table. Lovely soups. sandwiches and cakes and wonderful cheese scones... how do they make them so tasty?

I often visit this establishment. It is tucked away on Tower Street, but is usually busy for both bakery and cafe. The display of cakes and bread on arrival is so temting, and the portions are good. They also sell other items like eggs and preserves. The cafe is small, the service can be a bit hit and miss but the food is worth it. It smells lovely in there and the quality of the meals is very good.

I guess as its a bakery as well as a restaurant you would expect nice cakes - you wont be disappointed. The slices are large enough to share - and they dont mind you doing this.They do a nice ploughmans with a choice of several local cheeses or pork pie and on the day we had lunch here I had smoked fish chowder from the specials board - very tasty and filling. I can also recommend the bakewell slice. Limited tables so morning coffee time a bit busy but lunchtime seemed quieter.

Nothing bad to say about this place. Lovely scones and carrot cake ( only ones i have tried). The bread is delicious as are the prepared rolls/sandwiches. The ploughmans is also recommended. The coffee and oyher local produce are also top notch. Definate 5 stars

I come in here now and again for salads and food to takeaway. The lady at the salad counter who is dark haired (there is a younger girl sometimes who is great) is so rude that if I see her I don't bother going in. It's weird but if you look posh she is all smiles, but for myself and my female friend she is just plain rude and unhelpful. Shame as the food here is great, and the young lad is also very good.

Often i get my dinner from here and generally have one of their veggie soups and can honestly say they never let me down. Also their cakes are mega.

I have to visit norburys for a brownie every time I'm in Lynn. Quick service and the most delicious brownies I have ever eaten!!!! Must try!!!

Visited kings lynn. Lunch time it was back to my favourite bakery come cafe. Never had a bad meal here, todays lunch was one of the best, simple ploughman’s with local fresh ingredients, smoked ham with cheese, red apple, celery, little gem lettuce, never had room for one of there excellent cakes. Will be back soon.

This is my preferred choice for fish & chips in Lynn. Both eat in and take away. Clean and friendly.

The food here to takeaway is very good overall. The only thing that puts me off going more regularly is the lady who serves you when you want a salad or roll. She is rude, unhelpful and seriously needs retraining in how to speak to customers. I have a female friend who doesn't go in there because of her. I have tried being overly polite to not talking. No matter the different ways I've tried, she is just rude. An example was me asking for a roll. She looks up at you, saying nothing and motions her hand towards the counter. Thanks for the help :-/

We haven't been here for a little while, lovely hot coffee and a bacon sandwich on home made bread...yummy...looking forward to going back.

The cakes, scones and bread are all amazing. They are all fresh and cooked on the premises. Oh and I forgot, the sausage rolls are the best in the world.

Saturday lunch with great service and food. I was attracted to the cafe by the cakes to star with, but the pie with salad and warm new potatoes was out of this world.

It's a small café and delicatessen. The service was prompt and polite and my lunch, the beef brisket sandwich special, was very good. Nice coffee as well. It is a bit more expensive than some of the nearby alternatives, but as befits a delicatessen, the ingredients seem to be top quality. There are not many tables, but you can take the food away. The delicious looking cakes might tempt you.

Came for coffee and a cake, both fantastic in taste and value. Peaceful place to rest and read a book or watch the world go by. Really kind and attentive staff too.

You will be made very welcome here by both the staff and management. Great choice of breads. All food made to order.

Popped in during a shopping trip, we shared a hot sausage roll..yum and coffees, we couldn't resist taking home some homemade bread and cake..lovely place.

Not only excellent coffee, very good sandwiches (nearly a meal in themselves, and all you'd expect, wonderful extra large free-range hen's eggs. I've been buying them weekly for ages, wonderful flavour, wonderful yolk colour. Haven't led the quails' or duck eggs yet, but may get round to them. Fresh deliveries of eggs on Friday

We were looking for a late lunch and found ourselves in Kings Lynn. We were on the point of giving up on finding anything even slightly different when we happened upon Norbury's.

Metimos en para una taza de café y decidimos probar la increíble variedad de pasteles. La comida parece ser todos locales y era tan sabrosa.

The food is excellent but unfortunately the experience was spoilt by the disgusting state of the toilets. This was not just because of a busy day, the sink had longstanding grime as did all the fittings, floor and walls. I'm afraid it makes me wonder what the kitchens are.

Popped in here for a quick lunch with my daughter. As well as table service they offer packed lunches too which I can recommend. We had sandwiches on a choice of home-made white, brown or granary bread, I had the brie and bacon and it was delicious with some crisps and dressed lettuce. The cakes are HUGE and they are happy to give you one cake and two plates so you can share. Definitely a good place for lunch, and as another reviewer says, a refreshing change from the usual coffee chains.

Three of us popped in during a shopping trip. Service was friendly and quick, food was delicious and ordering took account of appetites of various sizes.. Portions were generous, so one course was sufficient, but cakes and desserts looked wonderful, do we took some to enjoy later at home.

Melhor scone da cidade, para Brasileiros lembra um pouco do Pao de Queijo, a comida e muito boa e o atendimento e muito gentil.

In a world where coffee shops as opening everywhere it is good to visit one that stands out. We visited mid morning for a coffee and a cake. The food and drink were excellent and the service was first class. I asked for my Latte to be transferred to a mug and this was done without any problem or complaint. The freshly baked cakes and bread looked really attractive and appealing. Well worth a visit

I popped in here for my first time as my partner and I had heard that they do a great selection of cakes and small lunches. Well, we now head there almost every time we are in town. It may not be the fanciest of places, or perhaps even the tastiest for lunches but its just such a refreshing change from the other places available in town. It's selection of sandwiches, salads and soups is great and seems to change everytime we go. The food is always tasty and the portion sizes are sensible, which I actually consider to be a huge compliment given the HUGE size of portions usually given in Norfolk! And the cakes....well they can't be beaten by anywhere else in town. The staff are always lovely and I hope this place thrives in King's Lynn. Keep up the good work!

staff, choice, quality all perfect. get the owner to fill your sandwiches as he is more generous than the woman and there is the most prettiest, friendly lady on the till most days.its a joy

I haven't visited for a long while now due to not living in the area. However i used to visit on a daily basis when i worked in king's lynn! Delicious food. Usually a good selection too.

This is a good place if you just want a light brunch, lunch or afternoon tea. The staff are friendly an helpful, and there is wheelchair access to the disabled toilet..They serve sandwiches, toasties, salads, soups and various ploughman's platters. Als cakes and pastries.Michelin it ain't, and doesn't aspire to be.

Popped in for lunch with a friend and enjoyed a delicious bowl of curried lentil soup and a tasty granary roll. We then had to make the tricky decision as to which cake to share but they all looked so good it was hard to decide so we had two cakes to share!The staff are very cheerful and friendly which makes all the difference. My husband had recommended Norburys as his own recent 'find' and I'd agree that it's a great place for light lunches with good quality bread/sausage rolls, etc.

The food here is always fresh, well prepared and presented. Always a smile from the very friendly owner and staff.

Called in for a quick lunch and wish I hadn't.A reasonable enough menu selection but not cheap.£4.95 for a bowl of soup.My main gripe is the state of the place.If you are calling in for a sandwich then fair enough it doesn't need to be too glamorous but if you have tables for people to eat at then a reasonable standard of decoration isn't too much to ask,is it?The walls were stained with condensation and had lumps of filler,no pictures or colour-it was like sitting in an old basement.Food was ok but the place is just scruffy-doesn't take much to smarten a place up?

We needed a pit-stop in Kings Lynn town centre, somewhere for my young niece to be fed. We stumbled upon Norbury's - I had been here several years previous, but forgot all about it. Norbury's was and still is a wonderful place for a cup of tea and a slice of something sweet. The selection of cakes is vast and cruel worthy. The three of us adults picked a different cake each. We had a tiffin, a white chocolate shortbread and a banana and caramel cake between us. All were delightful and very tasty. My niece, to our surprise, was also very well catered for. Norbury's offer a range of child sandwich options for less than £3. Norbury's was a nice find and would definitely recommend it, even just for a cup of tea or coffee. The service was warm and welcoming and definitely more inviting then the chain coffee houses in the town.

Lovely selection of cakes, I really enjoy the different roast meat roll of the day options, and also Norbury's sell local honey which I often buy

Always a friendly service. The cakes and desserts are always gorgeous and difficult to choose between, but my fave is the pecan caramel slice (amongst others).

great sandwiches to eat in or take away lovely staff and very fresh ingredients. always happy to see you.

It is very unusual these days to find a place like this. The food is very good quality, imaginative and very well presented. Now we have started going there we will make it a very regular visit. Cannot fault it.

If you are in Kings Lynn, make sure that you find this little gem of a coffee shop and deli. Home made cakes are brilliant, the scones a sheer delight but be quick as they sell out by lunch-time. Great home made bread and very generous fillings in sandwiches and rolls that are made to order.Lovely cheeses for sale too, proper mature cheeses with taste and flavour. Can't fault it. The owner and staff always welcoming.

If you want food "on the go" this is hard to beat, but take a little time out of your day and treat yourself....sit down and have a cup of tea and a piece of cake - you won't regret it. The cake "menu" is extensive, I have never seen such a wonderful display it is almost too difficult to choose. While enjoying your well deserved break take a look at the other delights Norbury's has to offer - I guarantee you will be back to sample them too.

Best place for lunch in Town . The rolls are amazing . The stews and soups are delicious. The sausage rolls and flap jacks are the best in the world. Try it and you will go back again and again.

Coffee stop that turned into a foodie treat. Cakes to choose from on day of visit included Banana & Caramel, White Choc & Banana, Lime & Toasted Coconut, Vanilla Fudge Cheesecake, Spicy Mixed Fruit, Lemon & Roasted Hazlenut, Spicy Orange & Walnut! Tray bakes included Milk Choc Caramel shortbread, Cherry & Marshmallow, Fruit & Nut Tiffin, Pecan Caramel shortbread, White Choc Caramel shortbread and Cherry White Choc Tiffin. The cake slices and Tray bake slices are very generous. Norburys uses and supports local and regional seasonal ingredients and foods including Mrs Temple's Binham Blue, Mrs Temple's Copy Cloud and Walsingham cheese. Also of interest is the Norfolk Mardler Goats cheese, lovely and creamy. While there a tray of freshly baked sausage rolls came out - so two to go. Will go again before leaving Lynn and look forward to future visits. They are on Facebook as Norburys Cafe & Deli.

A good stop for a real 'foodie', hot & cold drinks, snacks, lunch or afternoon nibbles. Anyone who has been to Norbury's knows that their Proper Scones, fresh baked breads, sausage rolls, extremely visually appealing slabs of Tiffin & Caramel Slices, plus their sandwiches (hot beef and horseradish yum yum) are really worth stopping for and are homemade . Honey and jams for sale that are locally sourced, and a salad bar.A calm and consistently great place to grab a coffee and watch the world go by. The team are efficient and friendly. Would definitely recommend.

Just love Norburys and all the cooking smells that come with it! All bread is baked on the premises and the sandwiches are devine. The fresh soups are always tasty and the service excellent. It's great spending time here watching the world go by. We'll be back.

Excellent deli and café. Bakery on the premises supplies first class foods. Service always friendly and helpful. Nothing to dislike!

Small but beautifully formed! Norbury's is our favourite place in King's Lynn for coffee and cake or snack. Bakery/deli cum cafe, no fuss or frills just delicious produce and friendly service. We never miss a visit when we are in Lynn.

Everything about this eatery was exceptional , food, speed of service, politeness in general the complete package. All bread and cakes made in house and once the bread is sold there is no more for the day so you have to be there at lunchtime and not in the middle of the afternoon as you will be too late, I cannot understand how anybody can be left wanting at this venue .

We'd like to be able to review this place, but when we stopped in for a sandwich on a Saturday afternoon, on the day of the Hanseatic Festival, we were told they had no bread! Such astounding ineptitude deserves this non-review.

lovely atmosphere, lovely team and excellent food ,been in on numerous occasions and never had a bad sandwich , meal or experience.

Sharing platters and much more at this delicatessen cum cafe. Nom nom! Great cheeses and pork pies. Tasty thick sliced ham, delicious relishes and bread that tastes like it should, fresh and crusty. Cake portions generous and moreish. Cafe very small, makes you feel special, I'm not sure i want to share this gem of a place, it will get too busy! Good quality food at its best.

A limited choice but food prepared on site and despite the salt is good. Of the little eateries on its street it is the best.

Whether you are sitting in or taking home, the superb quality of Norbury's is always a delight! The coffee is well on a par with top name coffee shops in the area!

Have had a variety of different foods and they've all been lovely from cake to a bacon bun and the freshly cook bread or rolls are gorgeous.

Excellent food and service. Homemade. Can't beat. Use also for buffet lunches at work.

We have used the Norbury deli for some time now and find the food used is of the highest quality which as most people know is the key to good food . It is extremely busy at lunchtimes which I think says it all as the custom is mainly repeat business .The comments about cleanlinesses are completely unfounded and it suggests it may be someone with an axe to grind as the local council have given it a highest rating on the" scores on the door" award suggesting it is a very clean establishment

Norbury's is aiming to be King's Lynn's fine food deli cafe but unfortunately falls short of the mark.The food is great, nice soups, lovely ploughmans salads and the obligatory retro colas and lemonades.The problem comes with service and cleanliness. They are reluctant to speak to customers and the general upkeep is very disappointing, less than spotless floors, scuffed and grubby walls and furniture.The experience of a deli style cafe has been missed, the lack of design and stock, with empty spaces on the shelves and a lack of commitment to the finished overall product.Looks like they are expecting to go out of business.

We hadnt been to Norburys for about a year. As we walked in we noticed it was filthy - everywhere! The floor, the tables the cabinets - yuk. We left and will not be returning!

Fast consistent and clean. Best in town for cheap healthy lunch.

This cafe is situated on the periphery of the shopping centre in Tower street and offers sandwiches and light snacks rather than full meals. What makes this cafe stand out is that it uses quality local produce served a quieter more refined enviroment. Although the ground floor is okay, they have an upstairs eating area, which pleasantly exhibits the age of the building by having an open roof space with all the beams exposed. Another aspect of this cafe is that they also run a bread shop directly opposite the cafe. It sells bread that is made on the premises and also supplies the cafe.
