Red Hart Inn Bodham in North Norfolk - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Genuinely some of the worst food I’ve ever had. I think the chef must have changed recently as the food was very very different from the photos. Frozen, oven-cooked garbage at gastropub prices. Please stop serving food or fire your chef. (We had cheesy nachos, chicken wings and two ‘homemade’ pies - all awful) A lovely pub with a nice atmosphere. Don’t eat here but come for drinks definitely!

Food was awful , ordered the pasta and they very obviously didn't put it in the microwave long enough the center was hot and the rest was stone cold.

We had a warm welcome the service was excellent and the food was delicious

First time on Saturday evening having a meal with friends. Slight mix up with the booking (they booked a table for 2 when we booked a table for 4). Staff were lovely and attentive, although a bit disorganised and different waitresses kept asking if we wanted more drinks or dessert. Probably didn't help that a big party was in the restaurant, so the staff were very busy! Food was excellant - we will come here again.

I organise our Cycle clubs annual weekend away each year and this year we needed 46 meals over Friday 12th & Saturday 13th July seated all together on a long line of tables. Organizing the event was a piece of cake as my contact Emily, was VERY efficient, ALWAYS reliable & answering promptly, so friendly and helpful too. I congratulate the entire team from Emily, chef to serving team for such a memorable two nights. THANK YOU you made organising this event easy Whether you have a small or large party requiring good quality food the RED HART at Bodham is the place for you. Emily YOU were amazing

Emily and all the staff at the Red Hart gave us the most wonderful, warm reception yesterday and went out of their way to accommodate a large group of almost 20 of us for the England game at virtually no notice. We'll always remember where we were for a very dramatic Quarter Final penalty shoot out! Lovely pub, kids loved the chips and playing Pool and everyone was very friendly! Deffo be back the next time we camp at Breck Farm in August. ❤️

Unfortunately our meal was very disappointing, slice of meat was extremely fatty and chewy, didn’t taste of pork, potatoes where hard and the Yorkshire was very dense and inedible, I left nearly all my plate, very disappointed to go for Father’s Day and being so awful after loving the meal when we went last time. Obviously change of hands /chef, the chef really doesn’t know how to cook

First Yorkshire pudding was black around the rim, Second was cold at the bottom , stodgy. And inedible. Table opposite all had blackened yorkshires. Think they may reheat under the grill. Broccoli was over cooked and charred, green beans turkey and roast potatoes were ok. Side of broccoli cheese had lumpy sauce and the broccoli was nearly raw and therefore inedible. Our waitress forgot what we’d ordered, failed to bring a spoon to serve the broccoli and after asking if everything was okay walked away before I had a chance to answer . Shan’t go there again

You must try the Rump steak at this place,,,,,, Amazing. One of the nicest Rump steak I have ever had. Excellent place

Good food options available for most people staff are exceptional very helpful just a great local pub atmosphere

Overall quite excited to have Sunday Roast, service extremely slow but we were a large group. The staff were very helpful but were not given a list of foods no longer available. I personally tried to order 3 different dishes and none were available. Shame as the food was good. Nice pub with big outdoor space.

Will and team are a asset to the village Great food the red hart burger is gorgeous, Roy boys breakfast on a Saturday morning speaks for its self. And a perfect pint of guinness served in a great atmosphere of an evening What more could you want Keep up the good work Will and team 😁

Great Sunday lunch. Good beer and cider. Friendly staff. Lovely outside space. Looks a little run down from the outside but lovely inside. Good prices.large outside space.

Wonderful food and friendly staff Also the bonus of being dog friendly.

Very disappointed with our meal on Sunday everything on the plate tasted the same, waited over hour for our food. Packet gravy very very large dense greasy Yorkshire pudding not edible. On the bright side the waitress was very good!!!

Went along with Gia on Saturday to try some more of the new menu, this time I went for the hunters chicken which did not dissapoint. I’m quite fussy when it comes to eating chicken out, but it was cooked to perfection and I would certainly have it again. Tried the arancini for starters which was also amazing! Staff as always very welcoming and the girls on shift India and Olivia were very attentive. Looking forward to karaoke night next ! Also to add as the options aren’t there, would recommend the mixed grill and the gammon egg and chips x

Went for dinner on Saturday, had the lasagna it was lovely! Staff are very attentive and atmosphere is welcoming. Would recommend to anyone in the bodham area. Can’t wait to have breakfast. Yum!!

Not a great dinner ! £17 …in my opinion the Dormy house up the road is far better and cheaper ,

Hadn't been to the Red Hart for a couple of months so decided to visit again after hearing it had a new landlord. Upon arrival we were made very welcome by new landlord Will Young and the beers are as good as I remember. Will has made a few changes of which my we all agreed was a definite improvement. The food was absolutely beautiful, I thoroughly enjoyed and can recommend the venison pie 'just like mother used to make'. A special thank you must go to 'India', our waitress for the evening, so professional, attentive and nothing was too much trouble, a definite asset to front of house. Get yourselves along there if you haven't been since Will took over.

Fabulous food brilliant staff really good value its a real gem and really good value

Great local pub! Variety of beer on tap, good food menu options and plenty of seating both indoor and outdoor. Quiz nights, darts, pool and multiple tvs with sports. Friendly staff. Stopped in on a visit from Canada and felt like we were a regular. Authentic pub not like the new Gastropubs that all the old style pubs seem to be turning into. Was nice to have an old style pub option.

Will and his staff went over and above helping us have a fabulous Christmas Day meal! We had 2 x vegetarians, a gluten free person and a lactose intolerant person and they accommodated all of our intolerances. The food was delicious and the service brilliant. Thanks guys! 🥰🎄🎅🏽🥳

Just back from a delicious Sunday roast. So tasty! Will definitely book again. Well done Will and team.

Booked a few weeks before for a spot of Sunday lunch on our way to a weeks break in North Norfolk. Arrived at 1.30pm, the time we had the table booked for, but it took a few minutes for it to be ready, not an issue. Got seated, but without any menus or asking for a drinks order. So after 10 minutes we asked for a menu and some drinks. Young server was extremely apologetic, stating that it was the second Sunday under new ownership, so they were a little overwhelmed. Understandable. Got our drinks after another 10 minutes and placed our order for 2 starters and three mains. Once we had finished our drinks after another 30 minutes we placed another drinks order, which we received at roughly the same time as our starters. Both starters were excellent, but by this time it was getting on for around an hour after the booking time, and we'd only received one course. Server said our mains would be out shortly, which they weren't. Another 30 minute wait, but again when the food came it was absolutely delicious. So once eaten it was gone around 3:30pm. Ordered one dessert for Dad, a shorter 20 minute wait for that (again, fantastic quality), but by the time we had finished it was gone 4pm. I rarely give negative reviews, and will happily state that the food was very very good, and the young lady was doing her very best to keep everyone happy. The other servers, who appeared to be the new owners, will need to correct the timing issues and follow in the young lady's example, as they seemed a little overwhelmed. But the food was absolutely wonderful, so worth a visit, just maybe give them some time to get organised as new owners.

Fabulous Sunday lunch. Faultless

Wow! We have just been treated to one of the finest Sunday dinners in a long time. We decided to share our 1st wedding anniversary at the Red Hart and it will take some beating. From the minute we walked in the atmosphere was so lovely. The staff had a little message board on our table wishing us a happy anniversary! ❤️ As this was the 1st Sunday under new ownership, we were hopeful the food would be exemplary, we weren't wrong. Grandma had the turkey, hubby had all the meats, I had the nut roast and lil man had sausage and mash! We ordered cauli cheese, marmite potatoes and pigs in blankets as sides. Honestly, it was incredible, epic nut roast, lil one said the mash was the best he had and hubby couldn't finish!!! The veg was perfectly cooked and I had veggie gravy too. Really impressed and can't wait to return. Will and staff were so lovely, Wills dad was our favourite tho, what a lovely man xx

Very good pub grub, Garden did need tidying up a bit

So happy this pub is still there , lovely terrace

Limited menu but food good The service was great

We had a family meal. Good service. We swapped table because the chairs we were seated previously were uncomfortable.

First time here for us and the hound's, good selection of drinks , 3 real Ale's on the pumps, very good menu, not big but very good, my wife had the fish pie and I had the Norfolk bangers and mash both dishes were delicious 😋. Extremely welcoming bar staff who could not do enough for you. This is a hidden gem, thank you 👏👏

Lovely village pub, 10 mins walk from campsite. Good food reasonably priced. Cider and ale available 😋

Great atmosphere and food to match, really good service too.

Absolutely wonderful lovely pub very attentive staff great atmosphere fantastic food great drink selection a must visit

We like it here. Good Menu Good food Good service Fairly priced Liking the Open Mic nights 👍

Great home cooked food, friendly and warm service.

Lovely pub, great food. Ordered sausages & mash which was delish & everyone else enjoyed their meals too. Very cosy and relaxed atmosphere although the area we were in was empty (probably as we brought a dog so put in the dog friendly part of the pub). Only downside was the high prices but understandable due to increasing costs for pubs & restaurants. Staff were very kind and patient too.

I didn't eat but the atmosphere was very friendly and inclusive and iv been told the food is good pub grub

Fantastic Sunday lunch and service. Definitely will be going back again!

Was looking for a pub with a beer garden. Nothing on Google maps but found this place. Very nice beer. Helpful and friendly staff and had a very nice home made burger to go with a couple of pints. A very nice few hours spent..... thank you Red Hart Bodham

Good food, friendly atmosphere.

We had a lovely lunchtime meal here today. It's a super dog friendly place. The menu was was a great mixture of pub classics such as fish and chips and some great sounding specials. All reasonably priced.

First ..but definitely not last lunch here today ….I had the best fish pie I ever had….followed by apple & pear crumble with custard…..superb….as were the meals of my husband and our friends.

Good, well cooked food at a reasonable price. Friendly staff

A small menu but daily specials. Surprisingly good food!

We've been camping at Kelling Heath Holiday Park, 45min to the pub. We ate there on the Friday eve, lovely proper pub grub, good selection of beers, super friendly service and all very reasonably priced (hard to find in North Norfolk) Our plans changed on Easter Sunday, and we decided to head back, obviously they were fully booked, but they still managed to fit us in, excellent roast dinner, total winner...

Great local pub, we were made to made to feel very welcome from the moment we walked in. Very traditional style pub with a good selection of beers and ales, 2 sections to the bar and a great looking restaurant (didn't eat as it was a quick visit). Dogs welcome, fireplace near the bar and a snooker table too. Honest to itself local country pub which is missing from a lot of Norfolk nowadays.

Really liked it 👍 Great pub 👍 Good service 👍 Good Menu 👍 Good food 👍 (We had the Chicken Skewers and the Fish Pie) Friendly people 👍 Good music 🎶 We'll be back 👍

Definitely the best Sunday roast we've had. We had roast pork which was soctastycand tender and came with crackling too. The roast potatoes were perfect as was the yorkshire pudding. My husband said the beer was very good too. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful.

Just popped in at midday today Sunday to see if they could fit us in for Sunday roast and they found us a table in the bar even though it looked like it was fully booked. Thanks so much and food and service was excellent 👌

As a chef I look for good food and service, and this places is great, fantastic people that look after you and the food is great

Pleasant enough pub but the dining area lacks atmosphere and the food is only okay.

Had a wonderful Sunday lunch..great food and really good value for money. The staff were very polite and friendly..and good service!!!

Wow. Just had an excellent plated roast dinner with a side of cauliflower cheese. Food was quick, hot, generous, great size portion, but the taste was sublime, and very reasonable price. It knocks the socks off the near by carvery on the coast road. PS, please update your website, I think Christmas is now over.

Great little spot. Came to watch the six nations, have some dinner and relax. Ticked all boxes and the staff were top notch

Pretty little pub off the beaten track. Pleasant service and good beer 😊

Nice Place For A Drink After Work. Bar A Little Small

The food here was excellent and, despite being very busy, everything arrived in good time and was nice and hot. The roast beef was cooked just right, very tasty and a good amount, the pork looked really good as well. The roast potatoes were lovely and crispy, unfortunately a rarity in many places now, and plenty of lovely tasty gravy. The puddings were all lovely as well. There are going to be return visits when in Norfolk I think.

Lovely meal. Generous portions and the menu was a mix of classics snd blackboard specials. Dogs welcome !

Really helpful and friendly staff and food was great. I am guessing because of the time of the year we went there, stocks were maybe low, as the bread for the sandwiches my wife and son had was just basic, shop bought sliced bread. It would have made all the difference if it was a decent loaf used, especially for the cost. Other than that I can't fault it, but decent bread would have made it five stars for sure, which I know may seem harsh but 🤷‍♂️

Truly excellent meal on Christmas Eve with our dog. Lovely staff. Would thoroughly recommend.

Great Xmas staff do. Good food and service

Lovely food generous portions perfectly cooked.

Lovely place to have a drink and a meal

We had a great Sunday roast here. Table of 8 and the food and service were both fantastic. Will definitely come back.

Us 4 girls had a fabulous lunch there today. A smiling welcome into a clean and warm venue. The woodburner on the go added to the atmosphere. Helpful and happy staff, serving really good coffee. The menu choice had something tasty for all of us. My risotto was well cooked and tasty. The other 3 girls on my table all enjoyed their choices. The deserts were a real treat. I will return. Thank you.

Lovely meal and great staff . Would recommend them for their helpfulness and kindness and wonderful food.

Lovely evening with friends. Staff was very friendly and jovial. Many thanks

Came across this pub by chance as it's away from the main road, but glad I found it. Good food, reasonably priced, fantastic staff who appeared just when you wanted them without 'hovering'. It was busy, that’s always good news.

Menu is small which is common these days. Food was good.

Amazing food, wonderful staff, and a very warm welcome. Will be back again.

I wanted to eat in a 'proper pub', i.e. not a gastro-bistro affair. The Red Hart fitted the bill and the food was great, as was a local beer which I tried, that was called Nibbler by Moongazer.

Service and food were excellent. We had the daily special Beef Bourguignon with Salt and Vineger Roast Potatoes which was superb. The pub is also dog friendly.

Nice atmosphere, lovely food and a wonderful coffee

Lovely and decent pub. Good stop en route to Cromer

Staying in Bodham, Norfolk this week and have been enjoying some wonderful hospitality and cuisine at the Red Hart pub/restaurant. Always receive a friendly welcome and fantastic food served up by brilliant staff.

We stopped here by chance after visiting our nearby wedding venue. The food was delicious, so much so we stopped there again when we were in the area. The portion sizes are big so go hungry! The staff are lovely too, definitely worth a check in!

Lovely food lovely atmosphere lovely people made us feel very welcome.

Loved this pub the food was brilliant,the staff very attentive. Would recommend it and also would recommend that you book in advance.

Came here for dinner with 3 others. For north norfolk I love coming here as it’s actually reasonably priced as well as good quality! I had the fish pie which was delicious and steaming hot and the others enjoyed their food too. Very dog friendly and nice atmosphere

Very friendly, lovely garden. Good food

Lovely pub, friendly 👌 and good prices on drinks

Small menu, which shows more attention to cooking from fresh in my opinion. Food good, we had the fish and chips, lovely white fresh haddock, homemade tartar sauce, devine. Friendly staff, interior quite airy and more modern than we anticipated. Would recommend.

On hols and booked in for a Sunday lunch. Roast beef dinner was lovely, I had the veg lasagne best I've had. It was really tasty specially with feta cheese in. Deserts were nice too.Staff very helpful and friendly 😋🙂

Nice place, roomy, good outdoor spaces and a tasty meal. Great shame about the foul mouthed bar flies that had probably been there since opening time.

Love staff nice atmosphere Good food well worth waiting for.

Had a lovely meal here, started in the bar where my daughter and hubby had a game of pool, staff and patrons really friendly. Then we went through to the restaurant, where we ordered the steak, burger and chicken kebabs, the waitress was polite and helpful, the food came quickly and was hot and so tasty. The portions so large that one of the party couldn’t finish their plate and the restaurant was happy to pack it up in a box to take home. Dessert was the ice cream which was delicious and again a large portion. The food was great value for money, staff friendly and helpful, restaurant was clean, welcoming and the ambiance was so fitting to an old pub. We will be visiting again when we return to the area.

Dog Friendly, convenient for Breck Farm Campsite. Lovely food and great Beer!

Nice friendly pub with good food.

Great food lovely atmosphere Very friendly staff

A nice place for a great lunch.

Nice pub .The food is very good ,a notch above pub grub and prices reasonable.Had home made fish pie one night then seabream later in the week both splendid .Dog friendly.

Found by chance on Saturday,what a find. Lovely local pub. Friendly staff and some really nice food. Deserves full marks.

Great setting friendly staff and locals and some good real ales perfect

Called for a few drinks when staying nearby. Nice place with a good food menu but can't comment on the quality of the food as we didn't eat here.

The best Sunday lunch we have had in long time and the cauliflower cheese was excellent

Great cask beers, served at the perfect temperature. Food was really good too.

Just had Sunday roast at the red Hart, absolutely delicious, lovely local pub with really friendly staff ( even the field mouse in the garden was friendly). Highly recommended

Been here 3 times now once back in 2005 and last 2 times more recent times. Last time I went was nearly a month ago and I think the food has improved a hell of a lot since. The steak I had was perfect and the mushrooms they cook had a great flavour to them.

Brilliant Meal. Excellent staff. Five stars all the way. I would advise you to book as it is very popular due to the excellent food served and hospitality shown.
