The best restaurants in East of England

Rice very dry bhaji very hard Sag paneer nice small portions would normally be enough for 2 the following day Have used Surma for many years and Got extremely expensive nearly £40 Not value for money disappointed

We called in here for breakfast on the recommendation of Norfolk Broads Direct at the end of our holiday. Friendly welcome, 3 different sizes of Full English on offer - we chose the smallest ‘half breakfast’ but it was plenty. Served freshly cooked, quality ingredients and piping hot! My only complaint would be the ‘spread’ on the toast. Should always be proper butter! The home cooked pies, quiches and cakes look excellent too. We will definitely come again next time we’re in Wroxham. Oh and it’s dog friendly too!

Lovely atmosphere, friendly bar staff

Stopped for lunch .. Opened the door to a hidden oasis of calm, vibrant colours, attentive staff, fabulous food & aromatic coffee .. A great place to take a minute, find yourself, properly engage with your nearest & dearest, and re-charge body & soul !! Loved the food - Lebanese Tapas for me & Spicy Lentil soup for the good lady .. Thank you - we will be back ❤️

We had a brilliant experience with the best waitress Jessica, amazing food, service and atmosphere. Couldn’t of asked for more

This excellent restaurant has now been obliged to close so that the premises can be turned into residential dwellings. It was outstanding because of its unusually huge, varied and delicious menu, its thoughtful staff and pleasant design. There was nothing quite like it. A sad loss to Sheringham and north Norfolk.

An enjoyable evening from start to finish. Parking was convenient, and we were warmly welcomed by a friendly and helpful staff. When we asked for recommendations, they delivered with excellent suggestions that did not disappoint. Every dish we tried was beautifully presented and absolutely delicious. We left feeling satisfied but not overly full—an ideal dining experience.

We arrived for a booked table for lunch on 11thDec and a lot of things were already off the menu ( specials board) . We had a light lunch and then when I went to restaurant. Side counter to pay and to order coffees I was directed to the counter on the other side . They then said my coffee would appear on the high shelf. I left my friend ( on her own) 3 times to retrieve the coffee and the last time I asked and was told someone else had taken it. By this time it was time for the start of the film and I had to take my coffee in with me. It’s appalling we weren’t served coffee at our table. I won’t be returning and I will be putting others off .

Lovely pot of tea and sausage sandwich, friendly staff. Would recommend! My only upset was being seated in the back and the cafe was almost empty. Waited for my bill but honestly think they forgot they have put me back there. It's hard enough as a solo female eating alone, so some consideration of this and being welcomed in the main cafe would have been appreciated.

I am gluten intolerant and always get great care and service at Prado Lounge. My current favourite is the mazze salad made with roasted beetroot and crumbled feta. It is amazingly tasty and very filling Great variety of quality teas available here too

very nice service, and polite..

Lovely authentic Italian food! The staff are really friendly and welcoming and the food was delicious! A wide variety of food was on the menu, with many great vegetarian options as well!

Small portions. Overdone beef (not asked how we wanted it). Dessert was very nice but meagre with compote taking up most of the plate. Having been regulars for ages we felt that it was poor value for money and won’t be rushing back again

Phenomenal restaurant, probably the best Indian in Harpenden. Highly recommend the butter chicken!

Attended the NYE party at the pheasant. The buffet was lovely and catered to my dietary requirements. The bar staff were friendly and service was prompt. The atmosphere was excellent, a very good way to see in the new year. I can’t recommend it enough!
