The Harte in South Norfolk - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Great food, good value, chatty landlord and dog friendly too. We both thoroughly enjoyed our lunch.Thankyou. ............

We have been to this pub several times over recent years and found the food of an excellent standard with quality ingredients. Prices are also reasonable given the quality and presentation. I would highly recommend .

We called in for Sunday lunch and found the pub surprisingly quiet because the meal was very good and the staff friendly and efficient. If we are in the area next time we will definitely call again.

Having just moved to the area 4 of us thought we would try the Harte for Sunday lunch. No reservation was required, it has its own free car park. On arriving the landlady welcomed us warmly and advised us we should sit wherever we wanted and then when we were seated, asked what drinks we would like? She then brought over menus, there is a good although not huge selection (which I prefer, do a few things well rather than a lot of things badly). I went for the beef, the others had chicken. While getting a 2nd lager, I could see into the kitchen which was clean and tidy, as was the chef. When the food arrived it was very well presented and we all enjoyed it, we all commented on the quality, well done to the chef and waiter. We then had the desserts which again were great. I also spoke to Landlord who was very friendly . Overall we were all impressed and will definitely come back for more. Highly recommended

Had Sunday lunch here today and the menu was very poor and when we did order and get fed the food was cold and gave the impression it had just been out of the microwave. Waitress could have at least smiled and the bar man the same. Over priced for what we had and certainly won't be back or wouldn't advise either.

Stayed in the village for a few nights and The Harte was just at the end of our street .Lovely friendly pub with great home made food and local beers - spot on !

Been here a number of times and they are always accomodating to any particular requirements, and serve good value, wholesome food. Last visit was an August Wednesday (EOTHO) and we were met by exhausted hosts, but they still served us food despite it being a bit late.

A nice relaxed ambience and a pool table. There is a varied menu and the food is good and great value.

Staff were very welcoming food was good prices reasonable was recommend and will definitely go back.

This was my pre race meal and alcohol night before my Run Norwich 2019. I really enjoyed my lamb, my wife wasn’t as keen on her Thai curry, the starters were both nice.

Stumbled across this pub while staying in the village .some good real ales ,very nice bar staff and a fantastic flat iron steak .would highly recommend it.

A very last minute booking as we were add ons to my mum & dads table. We all had roast beef lunch which was absolutely delicious, just enough & a good choice of vegetables. Went on to have the apple & cider pudding OMG! Haven’t had a pud like that for a while, so naughty! The waitress was a very sweet young lady, very friendly & helpful. The afternoon was very relaxed & was just an all round lovely lunch!

This pub in the centre of Old Costessey has a small restaurant and serves some pretty impressive food. Our latest visit was for a set 3 course meal for Mothers Day that featured what is a well renowned Sunday roast. Beautifully presented our ham hock terrine was like a dish from Master Chef. The beef was fantastic using locally sourced Swannington beef with the best cooked vegetables I've had in a restaurant. You must try it!

We visited here a couple of times for food whilst staying in the area. It is not a cosy pub but the open fire is great for cold winter evenings and the dog certainly enjoyed it. I had the vegetarian burger as it was the only veggie option on the menu but it was good and it was a large portion. My other half had the special which he enjoyed and again was a good sized portion. We were looked after well by the staff and the waitress who served us was very friendky and helpful.

We popped in a couple of times, having moved locally, and found the food outstanding, so we booked for our family Christmas Eve get together. Everyone agreed the food was delicious and the service was great too. How lucky to find such a friendly village pub which is so welcoming and offers fab food. We shall be returning and definitely recommend it.

Another lovely evening here with family Food always good Lovely local with great food to offer! Reasonably priced

On holiday for a few days staying in Costessey. Popped into The Harte for a beer with family and dog. Lovely welcome and great pub with good ales. Dog friendly (not in restaurant of course). Booked for Sunday lunch the following day which was really tasty and good value with excellent portions and quality veg. Would recommend popping in if in the area.

Eaten here a few times and always lovely delicious food for a reasonable price. Would definitely recommend for couples families and friends

Sunday roast excellent value for money and served by polite unobtrusive helpful staff in old style pub surroundings. The staff were happy to serve and talk to our young grandchildren which made them feel at home. Will be back again soon

Esta fue nuestra primera visita a la Harte y era muy contentos con nuestra elección. Vivimos lucha local y siempre encontrar un lugar nuevo donde comer y me recordaba que un amigo ha recomendado. Me alegró que nos quedamos muy contentos con todos los aspectos de nuestra visita. El comedor estaba lejos del bar y mucho espacio para disfrutar de una comida sin estar encima de la gente en la mesa de al lado. El menú no es enorme, pero tiene algo para todo el mundo, y para ser sincero mucho para elegir no siempre es una buena cosa. La comida era deliciosa. Todos tuvimos diferentes platos y para ser honesto todo daba la vegetación. Los postres estaban deliciosos! Especialmente la mermelada Helado que era increíble por el chocolate y sirve Tarta de avellana. Sin duda volveremos. Recomendaría intentarlo.

Esta fue nuestra primera visita a pesar de estar unos 5 minutos en coche, tenía una comida familiar encantador en las tardes de sábado, llamé por teléfono media hora antes y aunque el restaurante estaba lleno, nos prometieron una mesa reservada en la zona de bar, al llegar directamente a nuestra mesa. No demasiadas opciones para cada plato, pero buena variedad, siempre es una buena señal, en mi opinión, las opciones seleccionadas eran pastel, tagine, costillas y pollo a la barbacoa burger que todos disfrutamos. Los niños tenían helado, tuve vio dick y natillas y hay varios otros postres muy tentador que la mujer se las arregló para resistir estar en post buen comportamiento de navidad. El servicio era muy amable y perfecto, sin duda volveremos muy pronto.

Fantastic pub, staff very friendly , good real ale , looking forward to next ride in new year and beer after

Esta es una gente de pub, pero nos pareció muy acogedor, visitando la mayoría de las noches durante una semana. Un domingo muy tranquilo pero lleno hacia el final de la semana.

Realmente encantadora, agradable ambiente. Buena selección de cervezas, los propietarios son muy agradables y acogedores. La comida es genial, particularmente el filete! Recomiendo el Flat Iron Steak swannington. Vale la pena una visita!

We went here for Sunday lunch which was delicious. There was a lovely atmosphere in the pub with the fire roaring. It was a very relaxed setting.

We eat quite regularly at the Harte and always enjoy the food. It's what you'd expect from a good local pub. Friendly service and an enjoyable place to visit. Attractive surroundings and a reasonable menu selection. It's not a gastro pub so don't expect that level of dining but if you need somewhere pleasant to eat and want good pub grub this ticks the boxes.

We called in for an evening meal with family on a Saturday night. One of our party ordered fishcakes which were really bland and the salad was very sad. I ordered a rib eye steak, medium I must say this was the smallest steak I have ever had and was over done average frozen chips. The burger was ok But the onion rings were the best I have ever had This could have been so much better but apart for the waitress who is from France I don't think anyone was bothered.

We have eaten in the Harte on numerous occasions and have never been disappointed. The food is excellent and the atmosphere is friendly and relaxed. I would highly recommend it.

We've eaten 3 times at the Harte - the 1st time was very good, the 2nd time the experience was so bad we said "never again"......however that was 15 months ago and we weakened our resolve.........going for a Sunday lunch last week and had a really good lunch - both food and service - so we are currently inclined to think we were just unlucky on the 2nd visit

Always love visiting The Harte. A small but tidy real ale selection complimented by a great selection of freshly cooked food. If I lived in Costessey, I'd be a regular within days. The service is extremely friendly, the landlord always saying hello as you enter and goodbye as you leave, even if his hands are full with other customers. All the bar and kitchen staff are also always all smiles and happy to answer any questions you may have. It's a proper treat and always well worth a visit. Great value too, most (large!) mains are around £10.

We were away on holiday and been told to try this pub for their food unfortunately the only decent part of this meal was the starter, fishcakes and chicken skewers, I know it's pub grub but I think it is the worst we have ever had, we ordered 2 sirloin meals, 1 chicken pie and a lasagne. The steaks were more gristle and fat than meat, the chicken pie was a bowl of soup with a few pieces of chicken thrown in and a crust on top and the lasagne was lacking in meat content and that which was there looked like it had come out of a tin. The waitress asked if all was OK to which I replied that it didn't look like it as there was so much left on our plates to which she smiled and whisked our plates away, no apology or asking what the problem was. We didn't stay and will not be returning if ever in this area again, the whole meal was a complete waste of money and we wished we had cooked at home
