The best restaurants in King's Lynn and West Norfolk East of England

Very friendly Shiplu Ahmed and good food

After reading the reviews we have to say that we were very disappointed with our visit. We had the 3-course menu which was adequate but not at all exciting. Whilst each course was well cooked, the sauces and accompaniments lacked subtlety and flavours were not well balanced. Difficult to justify a Michelin star on this performance. Over the years we have used a number of Michelin restaurants but sadly this rates as the worst we have visited. It was highly priced and certainly not worth the money we were charged.

Really disappointed with The Mermaid. Appears to be going downhill, so unreliable with opening hours. Turned up at 6.20 Saturday evening to find it closed. Not what you expect from your local fish and chip bar. Think it’s time to take my money elsewhere

Relatively slow service as it appears that every meal is cooked once ordered (not sure if that’s normal) however large fish was massive and lovely as were freshly cooked chips! I will return soon 😜

Superb lunch for two adults ( lovely roast ) and 3 children . Staff were all friendly and helpful . Atmosphere was lovely . Thankyou

Very friendly welcome, all staff were pleasant and helpful. Excellent coffee and delicious pastries. Dog friendly too!

Fabulous and tasty food. Recommended!

We stopped at the Kings Lynn out of town restaurant for a meal following a long journey back to Norfolk. The food was great however it was the friendly service that made the visit exceptional. Thank you to everyone - keep up the great work.

Wonderful lunch today with ciapaninis filled with chicken, bacon, mayo and avocado and the chunkiest chips ever. Delicious food and great service. A welcome oasis from a bitingly cold wind despite the sunshine. Great value for money too.

Stayed for one night and lunch, absolutely lovely place, beautiful room and delicious food. Very friendly staff. Every possible need thought of with some lovely little touches. Breakfast amazing!!

Amazingly good food and large portions Fantastic value for money Staff couldn't have been better or quicker Will definitely be visiting again

Looks lovely place to eat went for bite to eat before going to Luminate coffee cups very nice but food disappointing Quiche was over cooked and greasy no filling salad was just leaves . cottage pie came in a bowl with roasted veg in another bowl no plate weird way to eat a meal . Won’t be returning

Tremendous hospitality, quality and price. Being a UK curry connoisseur, I thoroughly recommend the Northgate. Whatever your favourite dish it will meet your expectations.

Lovely decor and atmosphere as is expected for castle rising area, had a lovely cuppa and why the brownie wasn't anything good or something I recommend (in this case thr toffee crispy brownie), the aforementioned atmosphere makes up for this . Prices are reasonable.

Dan and his staff always make every visit fun and welcoming, and the food is incredible. My parents Alan and Norma are a regular fixture there with good reason.
