The best restaurants in Holt North Norfolk East of England

THE BEST 👌 RESTURANT IN HOLT AS MY LATE MUM CAROL LOVED 😍 GOING IN FOR A MEAL SHE DIED IN 😢 2019 FROM LIVER CANCER I HAVE MY LOVELY MEMORIES OF BOTH OF 😊 IN THERE AND I WILL DO SO AGAIN TO REMEMBER MY LATE MOTHER 👩 CAROL WHO LOVED CHAPEL YARD CAFE!

Found this open on the last day of our short break and left wishing it had been open earlier in the week. The best vibes and coffee in Holt by a long mile.

We called in for lunch today and immediately were impressed with the friendly and welcoming staff. The cortado I had was out of this world and the toasted sandwich was the best I’ve had in a long time. Another feature I liked was the deli with its well stocked cheese. I will be back!

Can’t fault the cakes and savouries but I cannot understand why they use so much single use plastic and cellotape to wrap them.?This isn’t very environmentally friendly.

Had a lovely meal during Norfolk Restaurant Week. The food was excellent and the service very good. A really nice atmosphere in the restaurant too.

New owners, very friendly & new food it was all great! I stopped off whilst out on the bike and had a great bacon butty followed by superb hot fudge cake with cream!

Takeaway. Taste of India. Holt. Boosts. TASTE OF INDIA HOLT is an Authentic Cuisine in HOLT, tempted by an unrivaled range of Authentic & Imaginative traditional and fusion dishes. My Order 1 x Onion baji £4.25 1 x Chicken Tikka Massala £10.50 1 x Aloo Gobi £4.50 1 x Vegtable Rice £4.15 1 x Bindi Bhaji £4.50 Total £27.90 I have used this restaurant and takeaway many times but 16 October 2024 will be the last time. You might think that Garlic is part of Indian food but this is the first time this restaurant has put or used it in any of the dishes that I have chosen in the last 7 years. To me, Garlic spoils the taste of food and takes over any Authentic Tastes it ends up tasting of Garlic. The size of the onion bargees (see snap) is just a bit bigger than a ping-pong ball, there are onions for goodness sake and very little price increase in a net full of onions over the last 3 years, what the heck? Dont say that the labour costs are much higher than 2 years ago, it's an onion Barge They have also started to use a ready-made red sauce, certainly NOT an original tasting Tandori-made sauce that they boost as part of their advertising. This has lost the authentic Indian-tasting food I once enjoyed from here and in my opinion the sauce is an insult to traditional Indian cooking and food. Their foil trays are now a lot smaller than say 18 months ago. When once a tray was suitable for 1 1/2 to 2 persons is now only good for 1 person. I get the feeling that since it's the only Indian Restaurant in the HOLT area they can cook and deliver food that is not as good as it once was including the smaller food trays. There was nothing Authentic about the food I had ordered. Authentic Indian food is one of the best-tasting types of food available but this was and is an insult to Indian food. An extremely disappointing Indian Takeaway in taste and size of portions from once a delightful tasting and smelling Indian food from this, restaurant/takeaway. In my opinion, they need to rethink what. Traditional Indian Tasting Food means.

We booked for a family Sunday lunch, when calling to book there were a lot of hums and ha’s making it sound really difficult to take our booking. The staff looked as though it was dress-down Sunday. The food was well presented and tasty but very expensive for what it was.

My wife and I both had King Prawn Foo Yung and a portion of egg fried rice. Looked good, tasted of absolutely nothing!!! Prawns like chewing cardboard, gave most of it to the dog. Never again.

Cute little coffee shop tucked away just off main high street. Delicious cakes, good coffee and very nice hot chocolate! Biscuit jar full of biscuits for dogs - very friendly all round! Toilets upstairs. I safely left my husband and our dog there whilst I browsed the lovely shops😊

A great pub, a wonderful room in one of Norfolk’s nicest towns. The staff were great, the beer was good and breakfast at Byfords was lovely

What a way to take advantage of late October sunshine? Sitting out with a bottle of wine and tucking into another amazing Crab Royale salad. The local delicacy, dressed crab along with cockles, smoked mackerel, prawns, coleslaw & potato salad. Probably the best value lunch along this pricey stretch of coastline. Roll on next summer for more visits to this quirky seafood shack...although interesting to see developments inside... a packed cute indoor restaurant, toasty warm, gingham tablecloths and candlelit tables. An ideal spot for birders and walkers on a nippy day. A lovely warm welcome as usual and a family business to cherish.

The restaurant is out in the sticks so there was plenty of parking. The room was very quirky, full of pig ornaments and pictures. The table decor was very simple. The food was amazingly good. Simple dishes cooked just right. Mrs Barganax opted for the belly pork and black pudding. I had the half bbq chicken. Alas, there was no room for dessert.

We are 3 friends on holiday, staying in Wroxham. We visited Holt & went into Eric's for lunch. Absolutely fantastic food, we had 2x small & 1x med Cod Loins, 3x small chips, proper mushy peas (not tinned) & lovely bread & butter. We all agreed - the fish and amazing soft crunchy batter were delicious, as was everything else. All the lovely young staff were extremely friendly & the service was excellent. Good value for money. 10 out of 10. Will definitely visit again.

This is the third 2 magpies bakery cafe we have been too. Both Blakeney and Wells are brilliant. The one at Holt was poor , floor needed sweeping, we were told 3 times they were understaffed. The food selection was very poor, no scones at all. We had to wait to be served, 2 other couples near us waited for ages to be served. I went to pay and had to wait ages. This is not the normal standard we expected from the 2 magpies, will not go to the Holt cafe again. Will carry on with the other two
