The village Inn in Broadland

I wish I lived closer…my favourite place for Sunday lunch , we visited last year not long after the new owners took over and thoroughly enjoyed the food and service. We returned this spring to find it still superb! Great food and beers and friendly service .Village inn team please don’t charge anything it’s perfect as it is :)

This pub has it all. Great ambience, dog friendly, well kept ales, super food and lovely staff. There is also a warming stove on the go for the colder days.

Brilliant pub, brilliant food & great friendly service. We visited from Suffolk and really enjoyed it in a Friday evening and Saturday night

This pretty, dog friendly, pub / restaurant has a great atmosphere and is served by friendly, efficient staff The food, selected from a varied menu, is delicious - piping hot, tasty and freshly cooked. The luxury fish pie is certainly luxurious. My husband enjoyed his delicious beef bourginon Highly recommend

This place has been recommended to us by a local as we were staying in Sheringham. We walked along the coast (unplanned) and then when we arrived in west Runton were desperate for a re charge and couldn’t believe we had found the place ! Great pub - great stock of local beer. Nice garden. Fantastic way to use up Sunday lunch leftovers by selling a yummy pork stuffing and crackling sandwich ! Thank you.

Fabulous food. Super efficient and friendly staff. Highly recommend the Steak & Stilton Pie & Beef Bourguignon. We'll be back.

Good atmosphere and good food, popped in without a booking but no problem. Children's menu is very good value for money and generous portions. Good beer too.

We took our staff for their end of season meal, nothing short of fantastic, the staff were superb, the food was beautiful and the price was great. We were not rushed through, a purely relaxing evening enjoyed by all

Really good pub food, reasonably priced and great service. The steak and ale pie was delicious and both my husband and son enjoyed their burgers. The food was piping hot, decent portions and the wait time was just about right. We decided to stop and eat here after reading the Trip Advisor reviews. We were all incredibly pleased we did especially since we’d spent a long day walking along the Broads and all of us were starving!! Would definitely recommend!

We had booked a table for Good Friday and Easter Saturday and it was a good job we did! Both nights were extremely busy but the service and food were 5 star! Between us we tried the chicken skewers, the burger, ham and eggs and the fish and chips. All absolutely excellent! This has become our favourite place to eat in the area. Beer is well kept and a good variety too. To sum up…… staff, atmosphere, food and drinks are all amazing and we shall definitely return in the summer. Keep it up guys as we love your establishment 😀

Had a lunch for 4 & everything was served up hot , with good portions. Staff were very friendly & advised on menu availability. Very dog friendly with a good selection of beer for the owners Highly recommended

Booked at the last minute and managed to get a table in the bar. Staff are very friendly. Not a huge choice on the menu but everything looked lovely. The meals we had were absolutely great and the burger was massive. No room for a pudding.

We came here for Sunday Lunch on Mother's Day. I am often disappointed when I eat roasts out, I often come away thinking "I could have cooked better and saved the money"......WELL NOT THIS TIME!!!!!! :) Everything about this dining experience was spot on. Friendly, polite and observant staff. Nice relaxed and warm atmosphere. Food was cooked to perfection. Roasty pots were spot on (they are often a massive let down when eating out), beef was deliciously pink and the cauliflower/broccoli cheese....LUSH! Oh, I forgot the yorkie puds that were the actual size of my head! We didn't take our pooch this time, but there were plenty of well behaved doggies in there, lovely to have that flexibility if you've been on a coastal walk and you fancy a hearty meal to get warm. Looking forward to returning, deffo found our new standard restaurant for Sunday lunches. Thank you and a massive well done to all at the VI. The new management really have excelled themselves.

Another great lunch at the Village Inn. Not an extensive menu but everything I have ever had here has been great. We had pie of the day, which was chicken, mushroom and stuffing in a suet pie shell. It was delicious and the accompanying mash potato and veg were perfectly cooked. The other great thing is that, while we were not with a dog today, dogs are very welcome. Staff are also very friendly. Would highly recommend.

Simply one of the best meals we have ever had, fantastic local produce, great quality drinks and fabulous service from the whole team. We understand that the venue has new owners and they have done an amazing job. Really lovely atmosphere and a top top head chef. I worked in the restaurant business for 20 years, going in to fix failing sites and I couldn’t find a single thing to improve here, well done to the whole team we will definitely be back.

The Brancaster mussels are gorgeous, but give the lemon consomme that comes with it a miss - very very watery

Another great few days in Incolborough fields and trips to the Village Inn, just love this village gem, fabulous food, drinks and service especially Louise who can’t do enough for you, thankyou and also saw and older guy struggling to walk without his frame and...

Family Sunday lunch. Extremely good value for a full plate of roasted meats with vegetables, condiments & huge Yorkshire puddings. The apple & berry crumble was to die for!

We visited the Village Inn for Sunday lunch today whilst on holiday in the area. It was excellent. We had the pork and beef roasts with a side of cauliflower and broccoli cheese. It was all delicious. The fruit crumble we shared for pudding was...

We ate at The Village Inn on two evenings and visited for drinks on two other occasions..friendly, helpful staff and great service on every occasion. The food was very good quality, competitively priced and can highly recommend the "luxury fish pie" and the "Pie of...

Fantastic pub with dogs accepted inside and out. All facilities provided for them.Outside the grounds are spacious and on one occasion we countrd over 20 dogs in the ground and not a bother to man or beast. Food was exceptional and a lot of choice....

What a great find. Friendly staff and delicious food. We had fish pie and chicken pie. With delicious desserts. Plenty of free parking.

Lovely simple filling pub food, friendly staff and very pleased that we had found somewhere to eat that offered gluten free options, having tried three places in Cromer before who had been very rude and not offered anything gluten free. So a good place if...

Was here last year and the pub and food was dire but now under new management and much improved. A great location this pub deserves to thrive and the new managers are certainly trying. The food is very much british pub fayre butt well cooked...

Had drinks in the lovely garden Friday and managed to get a table in the restaurant for the Sunday, this was well worth the wait, food was excellent, the portions were very generous, every member of staff was welcoming, also had Mahou on draught &...

Nice ambience and welcoming to our 3 dogs. We didn't book table ahead but probably should have done as they only had a table for us in the beer garden, which is lovely but it was chilly! Food was very tasty; good quality and portions....

Great pub. Good beer. Friendly staff, efficient food service and food lovely. Huge beer garden and very dog friendly.

We booked here for an early evening meal before heading back to our B&B in Sheringham. Both of us decided to skip the starter and went straight for mains. The sausage and mash was tasty with a delightful gravy - and a huge portion too!...

The village Inn is an absolutely superb pub. The food is excellent. I am a fan of homemade pies and have had at least 5 different types over the course of this summer... with the bouef bourginon being the best of a superb bunch. The...

The Village Inn looked lovely with the big beer garden and plenty of seating. As you walk through the bar to the toilets there was a strong smell of stale urine...not pleasant and on entering the ladies toilets a very unpleasant smell! These could do...

Nice local pub that does very nice food. It was very busy on our visit. Nice big beer garden with children’s games. Despite it being so busy inside and outside, we were served in a good time and served well. Friendly polite helpful staff. The...

Brilliant! Dog friendly. Plenty of seating in and out. Good selection of beers. Ate 2 nights running. Couldn’t fault the food. He luxury fish pie was delicious.

Called in today on the off chance. They were very busy but Chris was friendly and efficient. He looked after us and the food was excellent. Lovely clean place with great atmosphere. Thank you the Village Inn and especially Chris.

One of the best pubs been too in Norfolk. Great food, generous portions & friendly service. Ping pong o/s & bean bag game for younger kids.

Brilliant Sunday roasts and all round menu. Went twice in the space of a week. Sundays roasts are delicious, lovely veg and gravy. Also went a few days later for a birthday meal. Again faultless. Pies were amazing, fish and chips h huge portion of...

Excellent meal. We took our dog out with us and he was made very welcome. The staff were friendly and efficient. The food was beautifully presented delicious and good value. We will book again

We happened upon this pub when walking from our camp site, had no expectations, but we’re very pleasantly surprised. It’s a lovely quirky pub, frequented by locals and travellers, but this mix when we visited was lovely. The menu is ok, we chose two items...

what a lovely pub! stopped whilst trying to find somewhere to eat as a family of four & they were so accommodating & friendly. staff were so fab & food was amazing! would definitely recommend & also has gorgeous outdoor seating with big garden.

Visited for lunch and sat in the restaurant this time. Very nice surroundings, great food and lovely, attentive service. Good value too.

Was recommended this lovely Restaurant, and was so glad we did. We were told to have the Fish Pie as it was outstanding - We didn't, instead choosing Sea Bream and a Vegetarian Curry - we were not disappointed as both dishes were delicious. Finishing...

Wonderful food! Brilliant portions. Lots available for gluten free too! Lovely outside and inside dining. Brilliant for kids (outdoor games)

Nice little find, very dog friendly, spacious outside with plenty of tables. Nice staff, good food. Clean toilets.

Had a fab time here. Food was superb and the staff were excellent and very helpful, throughly recommend a visit. Well done all

This pub is situated in the heart of the village with a lovely large garden outside which on this occasion was a great sun trap on what was otherwise a nice day but with a chilly wind. It was quiet during our visit being the...

My wife and I have been going to the Village Inn for many years now while we camp nearby. We have always loved this place and were pleased to find out that it had been taken over as it had gone downhill a bit since...

Staying nearby we thought we would try the Village Inn. Best decision ever. Menu not vast but an excellent selection including one for little villiagers. We opted for broccoli & stilton soup followed by fish pie and beef bourguignon pie. Absolutely delicious. We decided to...

Been to this pub in the past when we have been on holiday in the area. Went there last evening 14 July 2023 and was totally surprised at the change. Food excellent. Service excellent, fast and efficient and all staff very polite and helpful. Can't...

Had a wonderful lunch in the beer garden. Lovely tables some with parasols, spacious garden. Food was excellent. Really worth a visit seriously nothing to complain about - great improvements since the new owners have taken over.

On holiday and the weather wasn't great so called in to treat ourselves to a nice meal. Was amazed when ordered chicken skewers how big the portions were and so well presented . We were made welcome and served quite quickly. Decided we will call...

We have been visiting West Runton on holiday for many years. We gave up on The Village Inn a few years ago but we had high hopes that things had improved when we heard that it had changed hands earlier this year (2023). Sadly we...

A very good find on our way out of Cromer, and dog-friendly too! Really good food (we had beer battered fish) and plenty of it, at a reasonable price. Excellent attentive service without being intrusive. Would recommend!

We had a very nice meal, the pie of the day, beef bourgignon, it was very tasty, wine was good, only criticism would be allowing dogs in the restaurant side with a carpet, I don't mind dogs but would rather not have them around when...

First time here and it was lovely, fine drinks and the food was perfect and great value for money. Certainly will be back I loved the onion rings they were to die for

Having stayed in an air BnB 500 yards up the road we found our way to the fantastic Village Inn. The new owners are fantastic and make you feel like one of the regulars right from the start. The place was absolutely buzzing with people...

Lovely welcoming atmosphere, beautiful food and friendly staff. Home prepared and dog friendly with lots of well behaved dogs

A choice of Sunday lunch options which catered for meat eaters and vegetarians so I could have my plate piled high with chicken, beef and pork and my husband and son could enjoy their nut roasts. Yorkshire puddings for all of us and a well...

Really disappointed with this place, from the outside it’s a lovely building with bags of potential. Unfortunately if falls short, inside is cold, soulless and not a very welcoming feel. There’s not really a nice bar area, the small area available looks like an old...

Thank you x New owners are doing a fantastic job, what a lovely friendly atmosphere, great food and a fab selection of on tap beers to suit all budgets and tastes

We stopped here on the way back to Sheringham for a late lunch and was not disappointed Great food, friendly staff a lot of thought put into the actual dishes. Well done

Love the amazing refurb that’s been done. Lovely garden with parasols. I had the pie of the day, beef bourguignon, was delicious

Stayed nearby and called in several times for drinks and crisps. Decided to book Sunday lunch. Really good for pub food and a decent vegetarian nut roast too. Husband had beef and although cooked too much for him as he likes his pink, he still...

When we last visited this pub last Sept the business was a sad and sorry state! I suspect that Covid had decimated the business as the owners had owned the business for the last 20yrs. However the pub has now been sold and less than...

Booked here on the recommendation of our holiday property owner. Definitely worth it. The food was delicious with generous portions. Staff friendly and efficient. Lovely atmosphere. Will definitely go again. Some gluten free options including two desserts!

What a find. Lovely village pub. Staff super friendly and welcoming. Nothing was too much trouble for them. The food was fantastic. We went full 3 course for a special night out. Prawn cocktail and special whitebait starters. Massive prawns and a good amount and...

Thank you Lee and the whole crew . Lovely, lovely food, great service and happy , friendly staff . A lovely night out xxx

Had been here for a drink before over the years but first time for food. It was sooo lovely, friendly welcome when we arrived, menu had lots of choice, food didn’t take very long to arrive. My husband enjoyed the curry. I had the Sausage...

We had not tried the Village Inn since the last time we were in West Runton over a year ago which had been very mediocre in food and service. We had heard it had new owners, and what a transformation, a smile at the bar...

WOW ….. where do I begin? Friendly welcome, bright clean restaurant area , lovely sunny well kept beer garden , we chose to eat inside even though the weather was fantastic sunny and hot. Our delicious roast beef dinners arrived fairly quickly considering it was...

Took a chance on The Village Inn whilst on holiday and so pleased we did! Lovely friendly staff, very welcoming! I had the pie, mash and seasonal veg. Really good! Husband had the sausage and mash which he thoroughly enjoyed! Two clean plates!! Thank you!!!...

The staff were great. They picked up on the fact I may relocate. The food was amazing. Actually the food was way more than amazing...the presentation was second to none. I wish this pub all the best in the future. Great atmosphere. Can't wait to...

This place is now our “go to”. Food is fresh,tasty and of excellent quality. The home made pies are amazing. Thank goodness this has been renovated into the amazing place it now is after years of neglect. We’ve been 4 times since April and have...

After a lovely walk along the coast we decided to pop into this place for an evening meal. I’d driven past this place more times than I can remember and each time it looks lovely from the road so, I was glad that finalised could...

Thought we would check out the Village Inn now that the new owners are in and glad we did. We went on a Sunday and the food was great. I had the Sunday roast and my husband had the burger. Both were good and all...

Beautiful pub and the food was fantastic. Ingredients were fresh and local. Fish pie highly recommended and the mixed grilll. Will definitely be coming back soon.

Second time we’ve been to The Village Inn since they recently reopened under new management - and once again seriously impressed! Lovely staff, great customer service, superb pub/restaurant atmosphere … oh, and check out their homemade pie of the day, the decadent cheesy chips, the...

It's true, if I was running my phone battery down watching porn in the loo I would want a working lock on the door

Popped in for a quick drink after a walk on the beach and was not disappointed. We ended up having food which was lovely. Sat in beer garden nice atmosphere plenty of tables

Don't believe the nonsense written here, with glowing reports! This is the same old, tatty pub, and a couple have taken it over, from Bodham, without a clue about decoration! They state that the pub has needed TLC and that they have been decorating and...

Really glad we stumbled upon this place, really doggie friendly and after a great meal on our first night, including Cromer Crab and Sticky Toffee Pud we returned for the second night and we’re not disappointed! Great place to enjoy food, drinks and food service

We are staying in Sherringham for my husband’s birthday. We were recommended to try here and so glad we did. The Staff are extremely friendly and professional with good knowledge of ingredients of all on the menu which made choosing what you wanted much easier....

A good place for imaginative and well presented food. The fish pie must be the best in Norfolk, and the cheese platter uses Norfolk sourced cheeses. Would definitely return and recommend to others

Fell apon this great Pub on a weekend. Had Pork Tomahawk and Fish Pie, both of which were fantastic! Great value, and delivered by lovely staff. Would recommend a visit we will be back!

Food was amazing! Had the pie of the day which was so tasty and the vegetables were cooked to perfection! Fabulous value for money!

We have mainly drank at the village inn previously as it has a huge beer garden on the front that is great for the sun. However we were excited to try out the new menu and keen to check it out again since being under...

I’d give the service, the beer and the food 4 stars- BUT I can’t do that because I’m vegan and there’s only one item on the menu I can order. Not even a meat free Sunday lunch available. We’re local and would eat here all...

Second visit in 2 weeks and won't be the last. The scotch egg starters are delicious as is the seafood linguine, glad it was on main menu as it was just a special on our first visit. Keep up the good work ☺️

We booked for Sunday lunch over Easter as a party of 9. The menu choice was good and most chose a roast Sunday dinner which was exceptional - good value and absolutely delicious !! The service was excellent, friendly and very attentive. We would definitely...

We love staying at Incleboro site but the pub always let WR down, not any more, what a transformation, great atmosphere, ales and the food, fantastic. We ate there three times out of our 4 days, each time superb, thought about and exectuted perfectly, my...

A lovely little pub with friendly attentive staff and an amazing Sunday lunch, food lived up to the other good reviews and highly recommended. Recommend booking to secure a table inside though plenty of tables outside for when the sun shines.

So glad we booked despite it being a Tuesday evening, only just got managed to get a table. the food was wonderful I had Lamb Chops , husband had Steak Frites

We visited from Derbyshire last week and pre-booked a table for Thursday evening. The food was the best we have eaten for a long long time. The fish pie and the crab were amazing. We were lucky enough to get a table in the bar...
