A lovely little café. Excellent, well prepared food. Basic, clean surroundings. Lets itself down by refusing to serve tap water with an ordered and paid for meal. Also the signage on the main street declares that it is open all the time! This is not the case

Pleased to find this cafe for an early tea. When approached For our order, I asked for a glass of tap water, but this was refused. We never buy still bottled water unless we don't trust the tap water. We ordered chicken and chips, and a chicken salad. The chicken was so dry, it was difficult to get it off the bones and the salad was plentiful but all round the edge of the plate making it difficult to stop it falling off. An experience not to be repeated.

Lovely little cafe, tucked away over the road from the station, near Tesco. Very friendly and helpful staff, they looked everywhere for some pickle for the hubby's sandwich but didn't have any and were very apologetic. All day breakfast and son's chicken burger were freshly cooked and really tasty.

We are camping in the area and decided to come in for breakfast on Wednesday. There is a variety of choices on the menu for breakfast, we chose a big full English and a normal sized breakfast, we shared with our son which he was delighted with. Overall one of the best breakfasts in Sheringham- you also get a sizeable coffee (well needed after a night camping with a 3 year old). We spoke to one of the locals in the cafe and the pizzas come highly recommended so we will definitely be back to try them! The owner was so friendly and clearly a huge reason why the cafe has been open for 15+ years

I only bought a mug of tea. I asked for an extra cup of hot water. I had back pain and wanted to sip it after medication as soothing. He wanted to charge me £1 for the water. I refused to pay and left it. I had just started my tea and was told I couldn’t sit there and they were closing in 10 minutes I needed to drink my tea and leave. Horrible attitude.

A decent little cafe with friendly owners, cheerful young waitresses and clean tables. The food is cafe food and is excellent and affordable. Come here probably once a month and never been disappointed. As for rats in the food storage area, reported by one reviewer, what a load of nonsense, it's a clean well run cafe with decent people running the place. Would recommend to anyone wanting a good cafe meal at a good price and served with smile.

Ordered 3 meals and 3 drinks today . Tea , & coffee arrived along with a can of cold drink . 40 minutes later food arrived .2 breakfasts and 1 bacon cheese burger and chips., Baked bean slopped all over sides of breakfast plates , egg over cooked , looked like it had been involved in a car crash. Toast cold. Cheap nasty tasteless burger . Had to ask for condiments and cutlery as none offered . Also tables in wrong position in the cafe as we kept having to move for the waitress as she couldn’t get passed people in queue ordering teas and coffees to take away . Other tables too close together . This could have been to maximise seating for the 1940s weekend but not enough space. Really badly organised set up and also a small child sitting behind the counter ( obviously one of the staffs children) who could have easily been burnt by hot drinks being carried over him to take to the tables. It’s a cafe not a crèche !! Won’t return to this venue . I felt sorry for the staff as they liked so unhappy and didn’t know if they were coming or going as they couldn’t easily deliver food to customers in cafe or outside .

Worse breakfast ever. hash brown was cremated sausages tasted off, eggs overcooked, when I complained he said charge him double! No one else complained. My dog indicated there were rats in the bin area and the waitress said" oh dear that's our food storage area too. The bit of sausage I ate repeated on me all day.

Sadly had a very disappointing breakfast here today. Waited over 45 minutes for a small breakfast and a regular breakfast. When they finally arrived, the small breakfast was not hot, the toast was cold. Obviously by then our tea was gone and we had also been thoroughly smoked out by the chain smoking lady behind us. I have to say that the breakfast was very poor. Overcooked bacon, hard eggs and not good quality sausages. The staff were lovely. Two stars given for the happy staff and the nice tea.

After receiving a flyer we thought we'd give Plaza a chance as we use a competitor , Zhara's 2/3 times a week and always found it to be excellent. However we were swayed into using Plaza because they offered free delivery. On opening our containers we were mortified to see the very small portions and the state of the 'salad' which was miniscule and limp. I had a doner kebab which was stone cold, hard and tasted of cardboard, my partner's was equal in taste but her Sheish (?) was about as big as mince globules. Overall it was extremely disappointing and will return to Zhara's on Saturday where we can expect quality and quantity, Ok we have to walk 500 yards but well worth it in any weather. It would appear that the previous reviews relate to a former owner as one says they had to ctch an early morning train but Plaza doesn't open until 4pm. As with the other comments I suggest they walk across the road and try Zhara's.

I had to catch a very early morning train from Sheringham to Norwich, and then to Stansted airport. The train was cancelled, it was cold and raining cats and dogs. The Plaza was open, I had a delicious coffee and a lovely chat with the owner, who said relax, I'll let you know when the next train is due. There were a few other regular customers who all received a warm welcome. I left with one of their delicious scones for my journey. If coronavirus allows eventually, I'll return for another coffee and scone, or something else from the menu.

Good range of choice for the size of establishment and it felt nice and relaxed, not "greasy spoon" and not packaged chain. Outdoor seating under cover as well as indoor. Convenient location between tesco and the station but just off the road so not too noisy. Seemed to have a group of regulars which is further testament to quality.

We have been going here for a full English, since 2012. I wrote first review on TripAdvisor I think 🤔. You will have to wait because everything is cooked fresh and the eggs are perfectly cooked for my taste, no slime but yolk just about runny enough for toast dipping, good quality breakfast, downsides... I don't think they take card payment and tea, coffee is extra otherwise spot on sets you up for a good day.

A really interesting low circular building overlooking a wetland habitat, owned and run by the Holkam Estate. There's a large covered but open area with tables and chairs and a smaller enclosed café serving good filter coffee and a range of prepared on site light bites sandwiches, pasties and cakes. Not cheap but good quality. The rush and reed drinking water fountain in the middle is a functional masterpiece. The information boards are very helpful outlining what can be seen and why. The big carpark is a couple of minutes away and the beach is perhaps 10 minutes off.
