The best restaurants in Stoke Holy Cross South Norfolk East of England

Very special venue for special celebrations. Outstanding service, waiting staff go out of their way to support diners. The food is superb, wonderful menu choices using fresh locally -sourced quality ingredients and each element of the dish is just perfect. It's like being a judge on The Great British Menu!

Absolutely superb Sunday lunch. We’ve dined many times here and it’s always excellent. Today was flawless in every way. The menu is full of tempting and delicious choices, our starters were scotch egg and scallops. My wife had the roast chicken and I had the pork, accompanied with a lovely and generous selection of vegetables. Raspberry Bakewell tart was the perfect dessert. You could not fault the food in any way. Attentive and friendly service from the whole team. You will not have a better dining experience anywhere better. Well worth a visit.

Delicious food and varied menu. We thoroughly enjoyed our meal at River Green if we were local we'd be here all the time!!!

Absolutely brilliant evening. The only fault was we had to come home.

We called in here for coffee and cake on the way home from a garden centre where we gave up waiting in the cafe. This cafe was delightful. Friendly welcome, very clean toilet, good selection of homemade cakes. There was a painting class in progress so we sat in the shop with lots of lovely things to look at. We usually avoid cafetière coffee because of the sludge but we were very pleased with this coffee - lovely and clear and excellent flavour and much cheaper than espresso machine coffee usually is. It was a horrid wet and windy day but Willow really cheered me up. We will come again.

This café occupies an interesting modern architectural space within Norwich Cathedral. The cathedral doesn’t open until 10 o’clock, but the café is open beforehand. Unfortunately, the morning we visited the coffee machine was out of action. So we had tea, which was fine.

Don't take cards and takes 30 mins just to get chips in an empty takeaway!

Where to start… We bought spa day in Dunstall Hall Hotel. Disappointment from the start. Dirty toilet full of wee in our hotel’s room, messed up treatment and disgusting food. We have waited 1h 45min (this is a really long time) for the food which wasn’t worth waiting. I wouldn’t pay £5 for it. Do not recommend this place!!!

Cosy village pub just outside of Norwich. We had a Sunday roast and it was delicious. Although the apple crumble we got just after was bit of a disappointment. The waiters were overall really nice but the cashier was quite rude and acted like he saw an alien when we wanted to split the bill at the end. I am guessing it’s not a common practice! Overall would definitely visit again as it was a lovely atmosphere and good food.

This was our first visit but won’t be our last. We could not fault the food, the wine, the service or ambience. Go try for yourself, you won’t regret it!

Came here this morning and ordered a frappe with coffee & soya milk with no cream. I’m not lactose intolerant but my stomach is sensitive. The drink came with cream on top which isn’t a huge problem (but I said I didn’t want it, but didn’t want to cause a problem so just took it) - but discovered this evening the whole drink had full fat milk inside & has made me extremely ill. Not happy as I made it clear I wanted soya milk.

Had a capachino and mocca, very nice staff who were pleasant and service was quick, had ice cream tub which was nice, sat outside as it was nice, there is alcohol available, toilets were clean same for the outside toilets on the carpark, parking is a little dear £4.50 for 3hrs you can pay for 1 to 2 hrs, all day is £6.00, perhaps a £1.00 an hour would be good.

One of the worst experiences I have had in a restaurant ever! Took ages to receive both starters and mains, with at least a 45 minute gap in between them… which went very slowly as I couldn’t get the awful potted crab taste out of my mouth for the entire time. When asked if they had any gluten free bread, we were met with a “maybe” and then they never mentioned it again. As mentioned, potted crab for starter was definitely out of a can, and the chips that came with my steak were 100% McCains oven chips. I don’t mind McCains, but nearly £40 for that and an overcooked “rare” steak, quite frankly my love for them goes out the window. However, it does provide quite good entertainment watching staff constantly apologising for 1 hour waits, with them seeming to think that dumping a bread roll on any aggravated table sorts out the matter… the only saving grace there was Evie, one of the waitresses, of whom appeared to be sent to any of those aggravated tables to make them laugh a little - only staff member with personality. So shout out to Evie, as I doubt the restaurant would have lasted long without her. £105 in total for 2 people, 2 courses, and quite frankly, I think my tortoise has had better meals.

Absolutely fantastic 8 course tasting menu! Everything was delicious and well executed. Nick was great, he looked after us all night. It was lovely to see the chefs coming out with the food to explain the dishes. Would highly recommend well done
