The Galley in North Norfolk

We picked up a meal deal in the early morning then had lunch there later. Friendly staff and good food. Very well priced. The sandwiches on granary bread were stuffed full of filling and the bread was fresh, soft and just gorgeous. The lentil and bacon soup was wonderful too. Highly recommended. Support small local businesses and give the expensive pubs a miss. 😊

We visited today as we were in the area & saw great trip advisor reviews. The lady who took our order was very polite & friendly. I had the beef ale pastie with salad & it was extremely disappointing. The meat was very tough and dry, the salad & coleslaw did not appear fresh. £9.50 for a pastie?! I would expect much better.

We visited this cafe having had a bad experience in a Local pub where our food never got served. The staff here were absolutely fantastic. They rustled up take away cream teas, sausage rolls and cakes all in a short time frame and saved my dad’s 80th birthday from being a total disaster. We were so incredibly grateful for how they helped us out. There was service with a smile, they went above and beyond to help and best of all the food was absolutely delicious. One of the best sausage rolls I’ve had and the cream tea was amazing. Thank you so much for all you did! What a fantastic small business!!

Absolutely loved this place! having been sat waiting for attention in a different place we came here instead and were so glad. My husband is gluten free and there were unlimited options for him which as a recent diagnosis was so great to see. The waitress was absolutely brilliant so friendly and helpful. The food was delicious fresh and arrived in good time. Top marks

You get a great breakfast here, we’ve been back several times since the new team took over and they never let you down. Really friendly staff and tasty, freshly prepared food. You couldn’t ask for more!

There’s been a change of ownership but thankfully the breakfast and friendly service are still the same! Still a great place to pass an hour or two, we had a great breakfast, coffee and cake. A1!

We went here for lunch before going on a cruise on the broads. We told the staff that we had booked the cruise, and we only ordered a cheese platter a slice of carrot cake and a pot of tea to share. The tea and cake came fairly quickly but the cheese platter never arrived. After 45 minutes we asked for the platter to be made up to take away as we had run out of time. This was done very begrudgingly. They dumped everything in to takeaway boxes and gave us knives and forks to eat with but no paper plates. All in all we were very disappointed.

This is such a lovely cafe and shop! We took a couple of vegan cakes as a takeaway and they were reasonably priced and delicious, in fact, we both commented on how nice they were and generously sized. The person serving also asked if we had allergies and went away to double check ingredients etc. Well done. 😊

Our family has had many enjoyable visits to Horning. A lovely place to watch boats and bird life. On this occasion we booked a table at The Galley, the owners have only recently taken over. It has a quaint cottage feel, and was toasty and warm. As well as being a cafe, it is a deli and gift shop. The staff were lovely, the food was gorgeous and for the portion sizes, we felt the prices were very fair. My daughter had a vegan platter for one, and it was delicious. The cheese scones were the best I've tasted and the cakes were also top notch. Also the pots of tea were piping hot, sadly I have had many pots of tea elsewhere that have only been like warm. I could not fault this visit and would recommend the Galley to everyone.

Called in this morning for my quite regular take away coffee, two members of staff in the prep area saw me but no hello and did not come out to serve me. One did come out to speak to a second person about the Sunday papers but still no hello or service.

Had a cheese and chutney sandwich it was full of grey hair / wool had to leave after paying for drinks only will not visit again

Excellent. A warm scone with jam, cream and a pot of tea. Perfect. The scone was moist and soft. The service was good. It was good value for money. My only complaint might be that the restaurant seating area was quite hot and needed some fresh air through it.

Delicious vegetarian pasty and my husband enjoyed his steak hornish pasty. Friendly staff. Can’t fault them.

We found this by chance and really enjoyed our experience. It’s a lovely deli, shop and cafe, delicious food and charming staff.

Stumbled across this place when looking for somewhere to enjoy rea cup of tea and sweet treat and it didn't disappoint. The staff were friendly and informative and could advise on options for my dairy intolerant daughter. She said the vegan cookie was something she had always wanted!! Brownie and choc chip cookies were also delicious, as was the tea. Definitely recommend and we will be back for sure.

I had an idea in my mind to find someone to organise a graze table for my sisters 40th birthday. I Came across the galley Horning in my searches so I contacted Katie who right from the start was so helpful and arranged the most amazing graze table for us. She discussed with me my exact requirements and completely delivered. The graze was exactly what I imagined and more. My sister and the whole family were very impressed. I wouldn’t hesitate using Katie again in the future and will definitely be visiting the galley when in the area again.

Was good all round , seen and eaten better poached eggs though, they were all over the place and bit over done, toast was hardly toasted bread (why do places serve toast so untoasted?) the black pudding was practically raw so I left it. Tea was awful , weak as anything, I assume a single, cheap tea bag in a pot (I never looked inside, but on pouring a second cup it did not get any stronger. Tea served in horrible mismatched crockery with an awful tiny cup to use. Did not want to make a fuss as in a rush. Girl waitress was pleasant as well and did not want to give her grief either.

Yummy food and great size portions. Staff very helpful and friendly. Great little gift shop was a lovely surprise x

Fantastic afternoon tea with beautifully made cakes, sandwiches and savoury items. The service was fabulous.

how lovely to find a place like this. unfortunately they are a rarity these days. if you are going to Horning you must visit. Deli food is delicious, there is a little cafe area, and local gifts. what more could you ask for.. Staff very friendly too. stayed on holiday and made several visits to this place !!! thank you.

The Galley provided us with a fabulous buffet for 40 people, highlights included the frittata, scotch eggs, individual desserts and unique dips, all delicious.

Delightful staff and the food was unbelievably good and reasonably priced, the deli sausage roll and cakes were among the best I have ever had and I would highly recommended a visit for breakfast, lunch or to get takeaway goodies

Lovely place, very delicious food. Great prices, the portions were large. 1 slice of cake easily catered for 2 people. Staff were very polite, and happy to help. Highly recommend.

Disappointing. We came here based on all the good reviews in here. First impressions were good, lovely deli counter. We stayed for lunch. I had the wherrymans platter which was basically homemade pork pie, 2 x cheese, bread, salad, coleslaw and balsamic onions. It was...

Probably the best eggs benedict ever, huge portions, excellent service, a little gem on the broads and well worth a visit

Tried this for breakfast wow huge portions pleasant staff good fresh food. Wonderful scrambled eggs.

Been several times and had the picnic platters twice. Simply cannot be faulted. Beautifully presented, lots of variety and brilliant service. Haven’t yet tried the café but look forward to doing so. When we move nearby, which will be in a few months time, they’ll...

Picked up a picnic box today. I requested a vegetarian leaning. We were delighted with everything. Great combination of quiches, sausage and veggie rolls, frittata, cheeses and various accompaniments. Really good value for money and a lovely treat!

We had an excellent lunch here. We had a hornish pasty and a Mediterranean tarte both with salad. The food and service were both excellent

Great little deli and cafe. Very attentive service as soon as we walked in, good coffee, cakes and savories which we enjoyed in the park opposite. Display of take away deli food was very good, as were the breads which made for a great lunch...

This lovely little delicatessen/ cafe is just gorgeous, Lovely friendly staff, great food with lots of choice, including gluten free options. Not cheap - but very much worth it. Drinks are luscious too, the posh hot chocolate is divine.

When ever we go to Horning we always come here the deli is out of this world, we stop up for the week and back to car cool box on and a nice walk round Horning, pay this place a visit its well worth it

We had a most enjoyable breakfast which was delicious served by very friendly staff, nothing seemed to be too much of a problem

If you're visiting this lovely, quaint riverside village like me and the wife did, just go here and buy a sausage roll from here, preferably with a slice of their apple pie too. Do it. You won't regret it.

Delicious sandwiches made fresh to order. However it did take 15 minutes to make 3 cold baguettes. Why? We had to stand outside to wait. Not good with tired hungry children.

Bought the most amazingly tasty homemade sausage rolls and scotch eggs... took over to mum in Lowestoft who said they were amazing too!

The Galley es una pequeña panadería / delicatessen / granjero / tienda de regalos y salón de té, en el pequeño pueblo de Horning. Si tienes la suerte de encontrar una plaza de aparcamiento, ¡vale la pena detenerte aquí para comer algo!Estábamos sentados en la ventana del deli, ya que todo el salón de té estaba lleno. Cada uno de nosotros tenía un postre casero (¡muy difícil elegir!) Y una bebida; ¡la tarta de queso con crema fue particularmente notable!Hay una buena selección en el menú y también muchas opciones para llevar contigo, nos fuimos con un par de tarrinas de nueces y (¡al azar!) Un adorno de la tienda de regalos. No es barato, pero la calidad es muy buena y es una pequeña tienda encantadora.

was pleased to discover the galley open in march, called in twice and the same standards were in place, lovely food, nice people and dog friendly, really rate this establishment,,,,oh and thanks for the onions, lol

Myself & my family have now visited The Galley on more than one occasion. We are very lucky to have it as we are reasonably local (Coltishall & Old Catton). It has always been very relaxed & just a perfect place to have a spot of lunch or coffee & cake. The 'hornish pasties' are amazing! I love having a look around the gift shop & the service is always friendly. Will be back soon

Wow what a lovely shop!deli with everything you could want,the cheese selection is wonderful,fresh pies and pasty’s.Cheesecake was wonderful.Plus some lovely gifts sand items haven’t seen anywhere else. A must visit.

We enjoyed breakfast here on two mornings as we were staying in the accommodation they also run at the rear of the property.( also excellent).The food was great , plenty of it and served piping hot. The range and quality of the coffees were great and to top it all , there is also an excellent deli which we used to stock up on for the journey home. We also bought a few gift items from the shop which were of high quality and will make interesting Xmas gifts!

Came here with a friend, what a hidden gem this was.Lovely staff was first impression..Home made food and plenty to choose from. We chose the Wherryplatter and after some thought..I had the Ham and cheese bagette..served with side salad..(originally was going for the Hornish Pastie..till I saw the size!!..too large for my appetite that visit!..the waitress kindly said that if I chose it..I could have a take home bag to enjoy later..next time maybe!)..We had a hot chocolate to die for..looked more like a sundea..tasted delicious..Gift area with a lovely selection of unusual gifts..Well worth a visit..Be back soon..

Tuvimos que llevar a nuestra hija aquí ya que el lugar es muy bueno. Lo intentamos en julio cuando estaba en casa desde Uni, pero desafortunadamente todo el estacionamiento en el pueblo estaba ocupado. Hace un par de semanas y tuvimos éxito, y ella lo disfrutó muchísimo. ¡Ojalá cada lugar fuera así! fabulosa comida, buen servicio con una sonrisa, Oh. . y comida fabulosa (lo mencioné). No soy rico, y los precios son lo que esperaría pagar, ¡y ciertamente no iría a otro lado solo para ahorrar un par de libras!

Excellent food, and friendly staff. Best poached eggs and fruit scones for miles. Gift shop has some one off items, very quaint

On a boating holiday on the Broads we visited twice in 3 days as our first experience was so good. Yummy cakes, amazing hot chocolate and the best scotch egg ever.

Fuimos a almorzar y tuvimos la suerte de conseguir una mesa, ya que estaban muy ocupados. Mi esposa tenía puerro y sopa de papa con un bollo de queso y yo tenía frittata con ensalada. Ambos fueron muy buenos y generosamente en porciones. La joven que nos atendió fue muy amable y eficiente. Además de la cafetería, hay una tienda que vende todo tipo de cosas astutas y de buen gusto. Bien vale la pena una visita.

Stopped off for mid morning coffee and snacks after our boat trip from Wroxham. We were given a warm welcome and our little Jack Russell was even allowed in.

I was so looking forward to visiting the galley knowing it had a deli, homemade cakes and gifts. We arrived approx 4.10 and on the window it said now open till 5pm Mon-Sat. We went inside and the young woman behind counter said it was just tea and cakes as the ovens had been switched off. I then said could we have cold quiche or a sandwich? She replied that we could have quiche but no sandwich as no bread. Ok we'll order quiche and a cream tea. I took myself off to loo and when I came back my hubby had forgotten to order the cream tea so I went to inform her and was given the reply that they're closing at 4.30 but she'll get me a scone. When I was eating the scone it was 4.30 fortunately we were left to eat in peace and not asked to leave but were not welcomed at all. I must add though that the scone was huge and delicious. Shame about the reception we received.

I love this place. Whenever we're in the area we drop in and we're never disappointed.

Well James. Ours Was a bit different from your experience.

All i can say is the cake was ok but staff who served me must of had a bad day seemed rude an abrupt. No smiles just took my order then rudely snapped at me to tell me to walk id say four foot to the left of rhe counter and snapped THIS IS WHERE YOU PAY! I couldnt wait to leave the shop. Never known such rudeness in my life as a paying customer. Did not return back and wont ever.

Went there with 5 friends, so we did reserve a table just in case. I think that most had the platters which were excellent and some had the biggest scotch egg I’d seen 😀 Good service and fairly priced. Would recommend

Great little store in a beautiful little village. Reasonably priced quality products. Always a pleasurable customer experience.

Wow really dog friendly as made to feel welcome by the staff straight away. Good cup of tea with decent sized pot that gave 2 cups each. Carrot Cake and Raspberry Bakewell both super. Would highly recommend this place

Superb food and service, with great deli food to takeaway for a picnic. We went back for breakfast and afternoon tea, several times Chris & Sam

We bought warm just out of the oven “Cornish” and also lamb and mint. Sat by the river watching the boats go by, perfect.

On one of the hottest days of the year, whilst mooching about waiting for a river cruise, we stepped in to browse the gifts. Being hit by the luxury of air con, and noticing that there were tables in the room adjoining the deli counter, our lunch location was chosen for us. (But watch out for the low beam if you’re tall.)

Great shop, for gifts, local food products and drinks along with cafe / restaurant. Staff were friendly, welcoming and attentive. Food quality high and prices reasonable. Well worth a visit.

This delightful tea room also has a deli and a small gift shop. We had a light lunch which was delicious. A good choice of homemade cakes as well as Afternoon tea is also available. It is a real treat to visit here when we are in Horning and to be served by such friendly staff.

We stopped here whilst waiting to go on a river cruise. Had a look at trip advisor and went with it as good recommendations, we weren’t disappointed.

called in this gem of a place, we had our little dog with us and were made welcome, the food was absolutely delicious, the flavours,,,,were out of this world, if youre in horning,,,then you need to be calling, back in sept, cant wait.

Very polite staff, great food, nice atmosphere, Horn'ish Pastie and Scone's to die for. Shop is full of various gifts and the food can also be purchased to take away.

We visited horning as we were on the broads this year. The galley has become one of the must visit destinations for broads holiday makers , a gift shop , deli , and cafe with all quality goods! The posh hot chocolates are amazing and meals in themselves. The scones were absolutely gorgeous , fluffy and light , the service was excellent and all of the staff were very polite and friendly. All prices were reasonable considering the divine quality of the produce and the time and effort to make them, a quaint place to visit, wonderful!

We came into the shop had a lovely look around at all the gifts, and all the home cooked food which you could buy to take away as well as eat in the tea room, we waited for a table which was not long. We were served with a lovely girl, the homemade cakes were delicious and the Cornish pie. We will definitely becoming back as was so yummy. Thank you for making our afternoon brighter after the down poor.

What a lovely place with really good food. Four of us had lunch here which was great,the food was so good. The lady that served us was very pleasant and clearly enjoys her job

There is a minimum of two persons for afternoon tea and I do not like tea anyway so had a hot chocolate and a gorgeous savoury scone with cheese - the cakes etc did look divine but I am more of a savoury person. It is a lovely airy café but is a bit pricey.

Yet again we had a lovely lunch and a warm welcome.

Good choice of good quality food. The staff were welcoming and friendly. There is also a great deli and gift shop attached so a must visit if only for one if the reasons given.

This is such a special place and the staff are so welcoming. We shared a meat and cheese platter for lunch and Hornish pastie. Both were really delicious. We couldn’t fault a single thing.

Visited for breakfast had one full english & a benedict with poached eggs and spinach. Both cooked exceptionally well my husband commented that the sausages and bacon were a very good standard.

Found this quaint little cafe whilst wandering around Horning,found it to be lovely with loads of treats even for a gluten free

We went back on a sentimental journey to Horning , everything seemed to be in a time warp, and not much had changed in 15 plus years. Not in a good way

Stopped for a light lunch with family. Small gift shop, delicatessen and tea room in renovated period building. Sandwiches were good and coffee cake was ok. Rather pricey and children's portions would have been appreciated. Outside toilet.

This was the best afternoon tea any of our family have ever had, and between us we’ve had a few.

The title says it all!! Fantastic food, fantastic service really friendly people. They cooked our pasty’s to order especially for us... there were 8 of us. The gift shop is also good.

Very cold and windy day but a really lovely warm and friendly welcome to this gift shop/tea room/deli. Tea and beautiful Bakewell slice for me and white chocolate and raspberry cheesecake for hubs. Cakes were so good we brought apricot flapjack and fruit cake home. The shop is on the main street within sight of the river but not riverside. Know this will sound weird but their toilet, which is outside round the back was immaculately clean. Not always the case in high footfall areas.

Delicious afternoon tea today at the Galley for my sisters birthday. Lovely sandwiches, gorgeous cakes and wonderful scones. My Mum had pork pie which was lovely and not at all fatty or greasy. My dad appreciated the "Hornish" pasty with tender chunks of steak. We will definitely be returning, can't fault it!!

A lovely quaint little shop, with a nice shop and deli on entrance. The food was fresh, tasty, and well presented, but the service was very questionable. It's not often that service bothers me enough to not return somewhere but on this occasion it certainly was. Who I imagine was the manager had a bad attitude and wasn't welcoming, which in a cafe of this size is very noticeable.

Weve been here several times since my last review but Sunday's trip was a bit special so I thought I'd give it a mention.

The Galley is a favourite of ours for a light lunch even though we travel to be there, the food always delicious and we‘re made to feel very welcome…

Booked to have an afternoon tea here for 5 people, unfortunately due to the flu one of our party had to drop out last minute. We informed them when we arrived, and after some discussion we were told we would have to cover the cost of the food as it had already been prepared, which we accepted. However, as we were covering the cost of the food we expected to be served it with the food that arrived at the table, only it wasn’t. Instead we noticed what appeared to be the final serving of the afternoon tea being served to another couple in the restaurant. At the end of the meal as we were paying we asked if it was possible to have the food that we were paying for for the final person which we hadn’t had and were then told it had been used for staff lunches. We asked if it had been sold to the other couple and it was confirmed it had been given to the couple we suspected except one of them did work there, however it was clear she was not working at the time. Very disappointing as we still had to pay to cover the cost of the food which was given to someone else to eat.
