Went to the Italian evening, the Carbonara, garlic bread and Tiramisu were amazing. The waitresses were all very friendly and helpful. The Atmosphere was lovely. Would recommend.

We popped in for a coffee one afternoon and it's clear why people pre book. The selection was huge, with people having larger lunches, snacks and (for us) cake and cuppa. The place was immaculate, the service perfect, so good we returned earlier the next day without the sleepy teens for a cooked breakfast! Combined with a wander around the garden centre and farm shop, picked up some nice foodie souvenirs and garden ornaments to remember our holiday. Lovely place for a rainy day too. Cake selection was amazing!

I often meet here with friends for a catch up as it’s a good location for all, but unfortunately we have all decided to find somewhere else, as the staff are particularly unwelcoming and unfriendly. We all work in hospitality and understand the importance of being the face of a company. It’s all about the people, maybe some customer service training would help!

Recently visited for lunch with my family, we had booked. Greeted by extremely rude lady saying Have you Booked in less than welcoming way. Waited for sometime to place our order. Food was ok. No one asked if food ok or if we wanted more drinks or sweet my friend had go to counter. Certainly not a good experience.

The service was absolutely terrible! Sour faced, unfriendly, taciturn individuals who couldn't even say goodbye! Having said that, there was a delightful young lad who could teach his colleagues a thing or two about being friendly and helpful. With a smile on his face it was a stark contrast and he saved the day. Really the lesson is, if you are so unhappy serving the general public, don't work in a cafe!

I’ve been here a couple of times before. This time my daughter found hair in her food. On my way out I realised that in the open kitchen none of the staff are wearing hair nets or caps. Plus almost £5 for some chips with cheese?

Had to give 1 star as won't let me put anything less. I'm sat here in the cafe at the moment with two other people. The waitress was less than informative but took our order. Drinks, cutlery and the bill arrived soon after . Didn't have to wait long when the food came out. The other two people on the table were served theirs and I was waiting for mine. A few minutes passed when the bill was checked to find my order wasn't even on it. Fab-u-lous, not. I haven't asked as I don't want to cause a scene but will let them know on the way out how non-proffesional and incompetent they are. Obviously would not recommend or visit again. I work in hospitality and would never dream of treating people like this. Don't really want to say anymore as I'm wasting my breath on such a poor establishment.

Have often driven past while on holiday, today we decided to pay a visit to Vera’s Cafe. The cafe looked very nice and was reasonably busy. You have to wait to be seated. There were tables available, but we were asked if we had pre-booked. To which we replied we had not. We were then advised that they did not have any tables inside available as they were all booked, but we could sit outside. Even though it was a nice day there was a bit of a chilly air to it. We chose not to do this ad did the couple behind us who walked out with us. I have checked your website again and nowhere does it advise pre-booking is advisable. Needless to say we will not bother again. But if you do decide to visit I suggest booking a table first. So you are not disappointed. Would be an idea if you yourselves Vera’s Cafe stated this on your Website.

On arrival we got told we could sit where ever which was fine then had our order taken when our drinks came the cup with the tea was dirty so got that changed then our breakfasts came and they had got one of the orders wrong which they changed but to be honest the staff were grumpy and didn’t seem to care about customer service. We could fault the food that was at a high standard but probably wouldn’t rush back!

Had booked afternoon tea for my friends birthday, as I had bought vouchers as a present. Disappointing from the beginning…. Sat down at our table to find a hair in my cup. Was asked what drinks we would like, we asked what was included to be told tea or coffee which was fine, however later found out from there lunch menu that I could have upgraded to a barista coffee for an additional 90p if I had known this we would have paid the extra to have a nice drink. We then had our afternoon tea brought over where it felt like it was just chucked on the table and then the lady just walked off without asking if we would like any more drinks. Once we managed to grab someone’s attention we asked what flavour the cakes and sandwiches were and we were told they were “sponge cake, eclair, strudel and pavlova” this seemed pretty obvious as I could see what they were I just wanted to know what the flavours and fillings were. At no point through the afternoon was I asked if everything was okay nor if we wanted any more drinks. I had to ask for some water which we never received, so had to ask again. At no point did we get asked if we wanted a refill on the hot drinks even though it is “unlimited”. Towards the end of the afternoon tea I and my friend felt rather uncomfortable and that we were being a nuisance to the staff. We felt like this because we had to keep asking for service as I had to ask for a drink and boxes etc. It felt like no one wanted to come and see if we were okay and the service was really poor and almost non existent, except for brining stuff to the table. I have had several afternoon tea’s and also serve them on a daily basis myself where I work so I feel I know the service that people should receive not only when paying this amount for one, but in general you expect to be treated with a higher quality of service. This was meant to be an enjoyable treat for my friends 21st birthday and I not only feel as though she has had a terrible experience but know as she had also commented on how poor the overall experience was. Unfortunately from start to finish this has been the worst experience I have had going out for afternoon tea. The staff were not attentive, came across rude and uninterested and made us feel like we were a problem. Really disappointed on spending not only good money on this but also for my friend as it was my birthday gift to her.

Was fantastic breakfast as usual. We are regular visitors and food is always excellent. Problem occurred when trying to book the next week for Christmas Lunch. Considering we travel 60 Miles the weather needs to be decent. Spoke to staff via Messenger day before booking who were very helpful Phoned to book and after a great deal of sighing we were allocated a table - until I asked if we could have the Christmas Lunch. Chef was consulted and a manager spoke to me to say i should have allowed 48 hours (fine if it was stated in the booking info) and then I was told that It’s December, it’s Christmas and We’re very busy. Well that much I already knew. It appeared to be causing so much hassle to squeeze two more Christmas dinners that we decided to stop causing a problem and go elsewhere. To be fair the manager did says that as a concession they would squeeze us in but we must not do it again. Our second choice were also very busy but found us a time/table with good grace and to be honest I think the menu Is better. On past experience it will be excellent too. Love Vera’s but the customer can sometimes be a nuisance. Food can’t be beaten but sometimes customer Service leaves a bit to be desired Also lost a Christmas tree sale through this too.

As a coeliac, finding gluten free roast dinners can be difficult, however, Veras coffee shop at AG Meale and Sons was recommended in a private group on Facebook. I ordered the roast beef dinner, with a gluten free yorkshire pudding and gravy also provided. When the meal came out, I asked the waitress if she would please double check if both the stuffing and cauliflower cheese were gluten free, as both are commonly made using wheat flour. Upon returning, the waitress had spoken to the chef who confirmed both items were indeed, gluten free. So I tucked into my meal, at the time feeling reassured that I would experience no adverse affects. Fast forward 3 hours, and I felt very ill and eventually was sick. Unfortunately, something from my roast dinner was infact not coeliac friendly, and I am extremely disappointed especially after double checking before I started to eat!

We were there for a Sunday lunch, something we have done several times before. This time it was for my birthday. We were told the smaller plates were only for children and we couldn’t have them. It’s never been a problem before.Why now? They did relent but said ‘next time you have to have the big plates’. Well, sorry but there won’t be a next time! We don’t have the appetites for great big plates of food! Overall the food was pretty good but someone forgot to cook the cabbage. We should have said something at the time but felt awkward after the clash about the plates/portion sizes.

Yeah pretty good to be fair. Coffee was the best I had all week and made a point of giving this feedback at the time So went for breakfast on a Friday morning after visiting the farm shop. The welcome was a little officious but nothing onerous. Offered a table By the window and after that service was efficient and friendly Food was good. A full English for one and eggs Benedict for another. Slightly wondered at the use of an egg poacher but I guess in a busy restaurant that it may well be a necessity but this didn't distract from the quality of the food Ignore the negative reviews...written by people with unhappy lives. This isn't fine dining, but the dining is just fine. Quite frankly, I'd go back just for the coffee! Please, if you're in the area, do visit!

Could only sit outside on the patio because we had a dog. Had to go through to gates to get to the patio area, no access to the cafe from the patio. One of us would’ve to go back through 2 gates, then through the indoor shop to order food, then back out again through the shop and 2 gates. We only went there to have something to eat. Gave up and left. Obviously very anti dog with all the no dog signs everywhere

Visited Vera’s yesterday lunchtime, we were seated & ordered our food & drinks, waited for a very long time before the food appeared, which I have to say wasn’t particularly warm especially the portions of chips on our plates, which was mentioned to a member of the waitressing team & disregarded, I had to get up a couple of times to get our cutlery for our food as not supplied. It turns out the Environmental Health turned up unexpected so members of the cooking staff were pulled away which is unfortunate but having been in catering all of my life this really shouldn’t effect the quality of the food being served, unfortunately it did, not a great experience, I also had a 10% off voucher that I handed in but am sure this was not applied to our bill when paying. A very disappointing experience.

We have been today as a party of 7 for afternoon tea. The food and presentation was delightful. Very well priced and good value and the setting is nice and airy and clean. My only criticisms are the young staff, they could benefit with a bit of customer service training. Although the afternoon tea comes with unlimited tea/coffee, not once did anyone ask us if we needed anything, we had to repeatedly ask for a coffee refill and often met with blank stares. (Rabbits in headlights come to mind). The other issue was the vegetarian afternoon tea contained a tuna fish sandwich. When we did manage to attract a waitresses attention and she went to check with the Chef. she then came back to tell us the chef thought Tuna fish was vegetarian (again maybe some training on vegetarianism for the chef may be needed). They did however replace the whole plate with the correct veggie options and very kindly removed it from the bill. On a whole a lovely afternoon just a bit more staff training to earn those 5 stars.

We arrived just after 12 to a full restaurant and the garden getting busy. We thought we might be out of luck, but the lovely waitress found us a table we could have till 1:30. We ordered drinks and when they arrived ordered lunch. My partner went for the pie and I had a jacket potato. After a few bites my partner said ‘you’ve got to try this’. The pie was filled to the top with delicious tender meat. When we’d finished we went to the counter to pay, I had to comment on how amazing all the cakes looked and how fantastic the pie was!! This is when we were told the cakes were available to takeout, and a fresh batch of pies had gone down the shop this morning! Overall a fantastic experience. Special thanks to all the lovely staff who made our first visit enjoyable, we’ve booked to come back next week!

First time visit to Vera’s, and to say, we were not disappointed! We hadn’t booked but the helpful waitress had one table left. Having scanned the room, tables were reserved so we thought wow this must be a popular place. I chose the steak and ale pie. Omg it was out of this world! Meaty, melting in your mouth meat and perfect pastry. My partner had ham, egg & chips but was like 2 slices of gammon. Huge slices. Great portion as well as worth the money as we left with very full tummies. The surroundings were lovely and the place buzzed with happy, contented customers. Also visited the farm shop and purchased some great local produce. Did I say, we bought some takeaway cakes. Well, why wouldn’t you 😊Looking forward to my next visit but make sure I book because I would hate to be disappointed. See you Vera’s.

We were made to feel unwelcome and that anything was too much effort. We had to sit outside as we have a small dog and there were many posters on the site saying they weren't allowed. Eventually we found where to sit but the gate had NO ENTRY on it. I double checked and the response was not with a friendly tone more of a sigh. I asked if a parasol could be put up if it rained lightly and was told it needed authorisation. Again the tone was cold. I asked if they could seek that authorisation. I didn't hear back so went inside and they said no it couldn't be put up as it wasn't waterproof. I was immediately offered a refund but said we would continue as the cake did look nice. The parasol looked as though it would keep a shower off if the will was there but NO was the answer so we sat open to the elements hoping rain didn't come. Whilst I enjoyed the refreshments I feel the staff need tome customer service training. If it was the last coffee shop in Norfolk I wouldn't go back. The only place we've found that didn't welcome us and our dog with open arms.

Arrived for booked table for lunch today. Ordered from specials board, chicken and Ham pie, however served steak and kidney! Served with a few boiled potatoes and loads of peas! My friend ordered Quiche with chips and salad, very small portion of quiche for price charged. No variety of desserts. chocolate brownie Sundae or nothing. 6.95 for a pre frozen chocolate sundae with some squirty cream on top which we were unable to eat. when waitress informed of our disappointment, she first asked. did you eat the food!, as if to say if you ate it then you have no complaint! We did not eat the desserts so requested to not pay for these. there was a lot of fuss made at the till with several waitresses and a presumed manager, although she did not introduce herself as a manager. Requested we went through the whole complaint again. The whole thing was an absolute farce, which could have been simply resolved. We have both been regular customers, live locally and certainly will not be visiting again.

Serves a wide selection of cakes (Inc gluten free option) and tray bakes, although we were too full for anything more.

Fantastic! We were let down by another venue that we had booked for a 75th birthday meal. Vera's were able to accommodate us at very short notice. The food was amazing! Especially the Steak and Ale pie, wow! Very filling and tasty. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Lovely atmosphere. We have tried the breakfast menu in the past and that's brilliant too. My husband said that going to Vera's made his day and he couldn't be happier. Thank you to all the staff for making his day special ❤️

Have visited Veras numerous times and have always enjoyed lovely food and cakes. But, this is a very popular venue and yes, it does get busy - however, lately it is almost the norm, that as soon as anybody walks in, you are immediately asked...

Fantastic Roast as Usual. My treat when visiting North Norfolk. Finally on a round plate. Yay! Brought my partner to share in my delight. He enjoyed. Newbys might be best advised that the vegetables are cooked aldente, I love this as I know more vitamins...

Excellent! Great service from good humoured friendly staff. I had the fish finger ciabatta sandwich. It was wrongly described. Large "fingers" of cod in a lovely batter. As far from Captain Birds Eyes offering as you can imagine. An excellent salad and a pot of tartar sauce. Highly recommended!

We have been here several times in the past for breakfast, which has always been excellent quality. BUT sadly, went there today, menu has changed so the only options were vegetarian or fill your wellies. Ordered one of each, and was very disappointed with the...

Tasty food and massive portions, quick service and lovely staff! Slightly steep prices but worth the money! Nothing to complain about really!

We had Sunday lunch yesterday 3/4. The lamb shank was cooked to perfection as well as the vegatables. The service is second to none. I cannot recommend this place highly enough.

We stopped here for breakfast twice during our boating holiday. The full English is really good with locally sourced produce, but there is a good choice on the menu if that’s not your thing. The staff are super friendly and service is excellent.

Totally amazing Mother’s Day 3 course meal today. Atmosphere calm despite the place being so very busy. Lovely affable waiters and waitresses, who were willing to chat. All in all a perfect Mother’s Day. Thank you Vera’s chefs and front of house staff.

The food is ok. But the service has a lot desired. No joy or smiles. They would even scramble my childrens egg as they could only have fried egg. You just don't feel welcome.

Don’t go if you have a dog! Must be one of the few garden centres (and garden centre cafes) that doesn’t allow dogs. Made a special journey here today only to be turned away by the curt sign on the door! Perhaps a more specific sign on the entrance would be useful as a sign simply saying “No Dogs” didn’t make it clear that we would have been welcome outside at the coffee shop. We went instead to the wonderfully dog friendly Cliff Top Cafe at Overstrand!

Ordered well done bacon on ciabatta with black coffee. The coffee was undrinkable tasting like it had been made with dish washing water. The bacon had been deep fried and tasted just of oil on a dry ciabatta roll(no butter). An expensive mistake to make at a cost of £16.40 not as if they were busy. This is the 2nd time we have been caught out, never again.

Very well laid out restaurant, pleasing decor, and vey clean. We were made to feel most welcome and the waitress was very friendly. We just had afternoon tea and everything was spot on. Will definitely visit again.

Had the veggie breakfast and everything was cooked brilliantly. Not usually a fan of mushrooms but these were great, filling and taking on the flavour of what they're cooked in. Place was clean, coffee was hot and not too bitter and the staff were pleasant. Would recommend.
