The Courtyard Coffee Shop in South Norfolk

Visited for a hot drink.Both of us visiting have been or are in catering.Very good service from lady in black blouse/skirt making sure we scanned on NHS track and trace and guided us to a table.However fortunately or unfortunately our table was right by the serving counter for cakes, preparation of hot drinks.In between preparation of hot drinks the uninformed past was busy eating her lunch , a Tuna sandwich. We know it was Tuna as my niece found a flake of tuna on her hot chocolate spoon( thank god she isn’t allergic to fish/ seafood).Never once did she wash her hands in between eating her food, serving hot drinks and then going out to clear outside tables .We both felt we couldn’t say anything as the uniformed lady who was professional and made sure we scanned our NHS app and made sure we safely sat at our table would have been offended. However I will never visit again. Such poor hygiene from the lady preparing drinks and eating in between and then sending to tables.

Stopped off on a day out for a bit of lunch, our first trip out post lockdown - choice given over seating inside or out, all tables spaced out to allow ample distance between them/other customers. Service was quick, food was lovely and very good value and the cafe is tucked in a corner so again no concerns as to the environment.Tables were cleared and sanitised as soon as customers left, staff were friendly and welcoming. We'll definitely return.

Went here for a quick lunch and had a lovely bowl of homemade soup. This is a really unpretentious, nice little cafe. Reasonably priced and friendly staff. Cakes looked amazing as well but I didn’t try any as am trying to be good after Christmas!

Wonderful homemade scones, fruit and cheese,baked daily,often several batches as demand is high,homemade cakes,soup,cottage pie etc.For such a small kitchen the output of food is amazing and of great quality,plus the usual tea's, coffee ,hot chocalate,and cold drinks,you can even enjoy a glass of wine or beer with your meal.The staff are very polite and helpful.What some of the larger chains could learn from the team at The Courtyard Coffee Shop

On a Friday lunchtime wanted to get together eat and chat found staff most obliging,food to an excellent standard all freshly prepared,all our party with differing taste all very satisfied with their choices from a wide range of menu's,we all sat together inside, but in fine weather a large amount of tables and chairs outside, well done the courtyard cafe.

Always a great experience when visiting. Food really good. Cheese scones excellent and coffee nice and hot and tastes like coffee, not warm milk. Friendly staff and helpful. Worth a visit!

Obviously popular and not surprising. Great value and good choice of food. Cheese scones in particular are lovely.

I took my dog to meet my elderly mother (easy to access disabled parking). We sat out in the courtyard. It was informal and the surroundings are pleasant as they are well away from the road. I had a decaffeinated americano with hot milk. Good value for money. Staff were friendly. I will visit again.

Popped in for coffee and toasted tea cake which took a while to arrive but when it did it was fine. The kitchen which was on view was very small and full of used crockery including the wash hand basin but what we had was satisfactory if a little on the small side. I had a milk shaek and the other half a fruit juice in a small glass

I go here most weeks, the staff remember all regular customers. They do the best scones, and good coffee at very reasonable prices, bacon rolls excellent.

Went into wymondham to grab a bite to eat and found this cafe close to the car park.!! Lovely welcoming staff and although full we were seated in minutes.! Served really quickly and ordered homemade soup, ham baguette and bacon sandwich.! Food and drink served quickly and was perfect for the price.! Would definitely return if that way

Nice cafe generally, but had a long wait for our easy cold snack lunch to arrive. One of our meals was only a cold sausage roll and cheese scone and we had ordered a pot of tea for two. Don't quite know why it took 25 minutes to serve this easy option. I think to improve the wait i would have at least expected the pot of tea to come before the food so at least we had something to drink while we waited. It was quite busy though and we expected a bit of a wait but not 25 mins for snacks which were already prepared. It was good value for money however and the food was nice.

It's a small cafe just off the main street.

Spent a pleasant lunch sat outside enjoying the sun and watching the world go by. Fantastic coffee and friendly service. Panini ok but nothing special. There's something about this cafe that makes it 'Special'

It is lovely sitting outside at the Courtyard Coffee Shop and you can take your dog to enjoy the atmosphere too which is great.

Only stopped for a quick cuppa & teacake. All fresh -excellent service - nice surroundings. Outside seating for hot days. Very interesting Windmill and other shops as well. Garden & Childrens playpark

Sat in the sunny courtyard eating scrummy scones still warm from the oven - which along with two pots of tea came to under £6!

Nos recibió el dueño y nos llevaron a nuestra mesa por uno de los empleados, ella era de lo más agradable y sonreían todo el tiempo que estuvimos allí, el café era muy bueno, así como el almuerzo ligero, recomendaría este hotel a cualquiera que vaya a este lugar encantador en Norfolk. . .

Visited here with a friend and we enjoyed a tasty cheese scone each. Hsenhad a coffee and I had a peppermint tea. These were,served with a smile and seems a popular place

First visit to this coffee shop despite knowing Wymondham well..Three of us..excellent jacket potatoes and a chicken pie special...3 teas. All promptly served,hot and tasty. Polite and pleasant guy served us. Noticed others enjoying scones which also looked good. Happy to return.

We regularly call in this cafe for a cofee and scone. The scones and cofee are very good and prices very reasonable. The outside seating area is pleasant in summer months. Perhaps there is an opportunity to make this area useable when weather is cooler ? They do meals but we have yet to try them.

It was after 2pm when we decided to have some lunch at this Coffee Shop. I made it clear to the waiter (Mike) that no butter was to be put on my sausage bap, as I cannot have any Dairy products. Unfortunately, this request was not passed on to the chef, so I got a buttered bap. When I attracted the attention of a member of staff, who appeared to be the proprietor, she came over, one hand on hip which my husband and I thought a bit intimidating. She just took everything away, with semi-bad grace, and without listening to my explanation. However, eventually I did get an unbuttered sausage bap. It may well have been a long day for her, but we felt her behaviour was rather unacceptable. More than that, they didn't have any soya milk either. My husband wanted egg sandwiches, but was told they weren't available. We were charged £10 for lunch, including drinks etc., but felt it should have been less, given the problems we had. Also, we noticed that half the tables inside had not been cleared, and flies were settling on the crockery. The table nearest to us was an example, it was littered with crockery when we sat down and still hadn't been cleared when we left the Coffee Shop. I think the problems I have outlined do need to be addressed.

Scones and carrot cake were delicious. Sat outside in the sunshine. Food and drinks were brought out to us. Courteous service, very reasonable prices. Would visit again.

I go there quite a bit for breakfast, lunch and just for tea/coffee and cake. Always been well looked after and the food is well cooked. Cake is always good by its self with tea.

The café staff were friendly, welcoming and very helpful. They were not daunted by a group of 10 and efficiently and quickly served the group. Comments from our group included "very tasty food", "very clean and tidy", "good cup of tea and sausage roll" and "brilliant food". The café prices were very reasonable and it is rare to find somewhere to get a drink and something to eat for less than £3.

Very pleasant cafe with good outside seating. Service was very good and quite prompt despite being very busy.

Such good simple food for great prices. Very pleasant for a coffee or lunch with friends. Also has outdoor seating. Recommended.

A very popular eatery with helpful staff, great service and excellent food at great prices. Highly recommended.

Whenever we pop into Wymondham, make a point of dropping into the friendly coffee shop for eats and drinks. Staff always friendly and welcoming, very reasonable priced food.

sat outside in October, the service was good. and food good too. stopped for a lunch with my mother before her visit to the podiatrist who is next door.

I usually go to a different coffee shop for lunch every week. However the bacon sandwich I had with my family has made me want to return. I didn't have to wait long to be served and was greeted with a smile and a jolly atmosphere. Pricing was also good value - much better than doing it yourself! And tastier too! They were also willing to accommodate off menu dishes if they can, (dietary needs). Will definitely be returning.

Great coffe, great scones, lovely spot very handy for parking! We found this by accident, right next to the car park, and sat outside on a sunny Saturday morning and thoroughly enjoyed the coffee and the cheese scone was memorable. Such lovely staff, and so many tempting treats in the display. Thank you for making our visit to Wymondham Market so nice!

Have used this cafe may times and enjoyed the friendly welcome and value food,. Yesterday's visit was quite different however - ordered two teas and was told there would be at least a 30 minute wait... or more! No reason was given - there were empty tables so I assumed staff were not fully ,stretched, but simply not interested in providing service. I did report this by email and to be fair received a call the following day from the owner explaining that 'they had run out of hot water, the staff were inexperienced and one member had not turned up for work.....Draw your own conclusions... you may get served but don't be surprised if you don't.

Food was ok, but unfortunately the same could not be said for the staff. They did not appear to be able to smile!!!They were more interested in standing around talking to each other and eating and drinking whilst serving customers, and yet the majority of the tables needed clearing. Needless to to say we will not be returning or recommend them...

Waited 20 minutes for a scone and coffee. Not really that busy either was very disappointed. Will not be returning.

Had a quick lunch here today with friends & we were able to sit outside. The service was friendly & prompt & the food was good value, although nothing exceptional.

I have had lunch here for many years and it's always been a pleasant experience. Good choice of menu from light snacks to full meals. Very good value. It's the type of place you could go in on your own and not feel out of place. Magazines available for you to read too.

Very wide menu choice, I had jacket potato with tuna & salad and it was very tasty & fresh. Eaten here many times over the years and always pleased with the service and quality of the food. Highly recommended.

Good coffee, tasty scone in pleasant quiet courtyard off the Main Street. Friendly staff. Perfect as we had our dog with us.

Had coffee and cake here today. Cake was lovely and light and not horribly sweet. Friendly staff. Will be going back again. :-)

A very good, value for money cafe - service is always good and the food, while cheap, is always well cooked and well-presented - great for brunch!

Every time i go down to Norwich i always take time to visit this lovely little coffee shop.The staff are always friendly and happy to see you and serve with a great smile.The food is always brilliant and cooked to order so always warm.with the option of sitting outside if the weather is good

They have recently redecorated and replaced the tables and chairs and it looks really great inside. They have added skylights now so whereas it felt a bit dark before it now feels lovely and light. Surprisingly the prices have stayed the same as before, as some places put their prices up to pay for a new look.The staff always remember us and are really friendly. They always make conversation.They are happy to adapt the menu where possible to suit us and the food is always delicious.I am surprised by previous reviewers commenting on how unfriendly the staff are, as we have always found them to be the exact opposite.

We generally visit this coffee shop once or twice a week as the cakes are nice but the ladies are so unfriendly and don't smile. We have never felt so unwelcome in a coffee shop before which is a shame because it used to be a nice place to enjoy a coffee. We will be visiting one of the other coffee shops in Wymondham from now on

Food was very well priced and was typical cafe food however the lady who served us had nil customer service skills. Couldn't smile once and did not engage in conversation which Is a massive part of running an eaterie - wont be rushing back. Places like this should learn that and make non regulars feel a bit more welcome.

My husband and I come here once or twice a week for lunch.It's good food, sensibly priced, great service and lovely and clean.Nice to sit outside in the summer.

Excellent food at an excellent price, this is one of the best coffee shops Ive been too. In the lovely market town of Wymondham, there is also a pleasant outdoor seated area which is welcoming to well behaved dogs. Perfect!

We have been coming here for several years, visiting one or two times a month.They offer a wide choice of baguettes, rolls, sandwiches, jacket potatoes and cakes. They also serve main meals at reasonable prices with a good choice for vegetarians. It is nicely decorated inside and always looks clean. The staff are all very friendly. There are tables and chairs outside,which is nice in the summertime, weather permitting.It can get busy here, sometimes on a Saturday all the tables can be full, so you do have to try and time it right.We wouldn't visit Wymondham as much as we do, if it wasn't for this lovely place.

This is a nice coffee shop in a courtyard. it has plenty seats outside which is lovely in the summer time, sitting under the grape vines. The food is freshly prepared, homemade scones are fab!! Service was good (bit slower on second round but this was only because it is so popular and can be very busy). the staff are friendly and nothing is any trouble. The prices are good and the menu has a lot of choices and they have children meals too. worth a visit!
