The best restaurants in Queen's Breckland East of England

We have been going to the Shapla for years. Always serves delicious food to eat in and take away. Very friendly and efficient service.

Stopped off here on our way back from Norwich on a university visit. Restaurant had just closed for lunch service but food in the bar was available. Everything from the main menu except the carvery was available. Fabulous! Steak Hogie, Lasagne with garlic ciabatta, and Katsu Curry. All good healthy size portions. Just what we needed. Great service. Wish it was closer to home to visit again. Thanks.

Old team is back food delicious as usual 😍, definitely back again

Love their food . Good portions. Best in town .

I popped in with my partner to be confronted by the male manager who seemed to be seething, rushing around in an angry strop , dropping cutlery ( spoons ) all over the floor before picking them all up and putting them straight into the public cutlery tray ( let's hope nobody had dog poo on their shoes that day! ). He also rudely looks people up and down from head to toe, overtly which is extremely bad mannered and me and my partner left soon as we were sick of noticing him. The drinks? Extra large mugs are a normal kitchen mug size with a head on the latte taking up a quarter of the mug ( I would dread to see what a small cup looks like ). On a plus side, the female staff seem polite but the contaminated cutlery issue means that this place cannot be recomended

Good to have them back.... Good food... Many a pleasant afternoon spent there...

It was probably my first visit to a UK pub or restaurant in over 20 years & also in my 1970s home village. Table booked by a Norfolk friend, purely based on Google recommendation, to follow a burial service in village church. It was midday Wednesday & only two people, so booking was not necessary. Entire experience was 1st class. Ver friendly, just right degree of service perfectly judging the time but also very honest on recommendations for food & drink, both of which were excellent & for reasonable prices. After the meal, invited to sit in the comfortable sofas around the fire next to the bar. Being a quiet, mid-week day, which though suited us well, I can't judge the atmosphere too well, but having been taken on a quick tour of the building, I can imagine it's a fabulous place when full of life. Highly recommended & big Dankeschön for brightening up an otherwise sombre day. Maybe I'll be back next year to try out the Biergarten! Prost🍺

Great food, lovely staff, what's not to like!!

I like old hotel buildings with character and this fitted perfectly overlooking the beautiful church. A little dated in the main areas (toilets could do with a redec) but that keeps with the 16th century atmosphere. The single room was modern, clean with the bed being a little too soft for my liking but I slept ok. Shower was modern although one drawback was it wasn’t a power shower and it had a somewhat weak waterflow with hot water taking some time to come through. The TV was somewhat dated but it worked ok. Room made up each day I was there (3 days) and tea/coffee/biscuits replenished. Breakfast selection was ok and I did not have any cooked offerings but could do with a little extra selection. One draw back here was the butter portions were rock hard so could not spread on toast. Short time window for dinner 7-8.30pm and a bit late for me and no dinners served Sunday either. Parking was a little tricky with space for 3 or 4 cars depending on size but on road parking 6pm-8am (free and time restricted) suited my circumstances.

The food here was so bad that my dogs turned their nose up at it, it took 2hrs to deliver for less than a few miles away. The food wasn't fresh, it arrived nigh on cold and the fact this place is allowed to operate on a high street is scandalous. I'll be reporting them to the local council and trading standards.

the duck was hard couldn't even cut it the chips hard and satay chicken so dry and chewy we complained about it to them. they cooked balls in old oil to

Absolute dive of a pub, bar staff have no idea what they are doing, clientele are rowdy and rather rude. Drinks were awful from tap.

Collected pizza. Dry, bland, overcooked. Had better pizza from supermarket.. Expensive. Such a shame as I have good memories of how Domino’s used to be. Very disappointed and won’t be making a return visit.
