Well, I can say if you would like an actual decent night out with respect, music, and appreciation, this is the place to go. Staff are always polite and pass the vibe check, and the atmosphere is spot on. Would definitely recommend it. Update : This place went downhill VERY fast, the while pub is just terrible and unfortunately not in my good books for pubs, staff are disrespectfull and the place had zero organisation whatsoever just looks messy everywhere. Oh well, luckily enough, I found a much, much more friendlier and mature place.

I can't speak highly enough of this pub. I went here one night over the pride weekend after a very bad experience somewhere else. The staff were lovely and very friendly. The pub was full and the atmosphere was absolutely brilliant. I absolutely loved my night here and only wish I had gone here earlier. I can't recommend the Catherine Wheel highly enough. I would definitely recommend it to anyone else and would happily go here again. Thank you for a lovely evening. My only critism was a bit of a delay in being served when I first arrived, but the friendly staff outweighed this.

We booked afternoon tea. It was dreadful. Service was slow. The wrong tea was brought and not changed despite our protest. The prosecco drinks we ordered did not arrive at all. The so called sandwiches were simply door steps served on a single thick piece of bread. They were taken from the counter and put onto a cake plate. Two of the cakes crumbled when we lifted them. We complained when paying the bill but it was plain our concerns would not be escalated hence this review. We have used Jarrolds for 50 years without complaint but will not return to Benjis. it is wrong to exploit customers in this way.

Second time for breakfast and I feel it better value than lunch. Large portions, nice selections and kept us full all day. Lovely ambience and attentive staff. The only let down was the disappointing coffee, they need to up their game, especially for the cost. It is tiny and not very good. I am sure last time there was top ups.

I recently had the pleasure of visiting Jarrolds in Norwich. The store was beautifully laid out and stocked with a wide variety of high-quality goods. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, making my shopping experience truly enjoyable. I was particularly impressed by the selection in the homeware department and found some unique pieces to add to my collection. Overall, I would highly recommend a visit to Jarrolds for a delightful shopping experience.
