The best restaurants serving British food in East of England

I have to say this was the best meal we have had in a long time! We had a three course Al a carte meal and with every course ,the food hit the taste buds! The venue both inside and out is stunning. It was busy but not noisy, felt very calm and relaxing. The staff were so very friendly and helpful. We live the other side of Norwich, so not been before but will definitely have to find another reason for going back and maybe trying some of the other menus!

Brilliant afternoon tea in a first class compartment on a lovely railway carriage, beautiful food and a very pleasant experience highly recommend 👍

Great place, lovely food highly recommended a visit

I recently visited Inn on the Green, and it was an outstanding experience from start to finish. The pub has a warm and welcoming atmosphere, blending classic charm with a modern touch. The food was absolutely top-notch—fresh, well-prepared, and full of flavour. Whether you’re after a hearty Sunday roast, a classic pub favourite, or something lighter, the menu has plenty of options. The portions were generous, and the presentation was spot-on. You can really tell they use high-quality ingredients, and everything is cooked to perfection. One of the highlights is the beer garden—an absolute gem! It’s spacious, beautifully maintained, and perfect for a relaxing drink in the sun. Whether you’re there for a casual pint or a full meal outdoors, the setting is ideal. It’s a great spot to unwind, especially in the warmer months. On top of all this, the staff were brilliant—friendly, attentive, and always happy to help. If you’re looking for a great pub with excellent food and a fantastic beer garden, Inn on the Green is the place to be. I’ll definitely be returning!

The best fish & chip shop in Norfolk. Great food, lovely fish, good value, and a wonderful bunch of staff. Sensible to place order in advance, they are always busy!

NOW PERMANENTLY CLOSED :-( The Plough at Rede is one of Suffolks best kept secrets. A thatched pub with oak beams, an open fire, all tucked away in the tiny hamlet of Rede. Stunning location, fabulous atmosphere with a warm welcome and the best food for miles around. Brian and Joyce have been running the Plough for over 30 years with customers returning time and time again. Ide give 100 stars if I could.

A god old fashioned bakery lovely roll made up for me excellent range of cakes and breads a great shop in central Cromer town

Our fantastic local, busy, friendly and with a great selection of drinks. Food is fab too, especially the roasts!

Incredible place always has amazing food and drinks! I would recommend the milkshakes, salads, sandwiches, paninis and of course the selection of cakes and desserts

Me and my friend had a jacket each, they were massive and great value, we tried to be good but were tempted by the delicious cakes.

Usually a fantastic chippy but half if the chips were overdone and other half soggy and really greasy and meat was cold and soggy really disappointing for usually such a good chippy

Welcoming and friendly. Reasonably priced, I paid £8.10 I think for a gluten free meal deal equivalent that was far better then any shop I have been to that I recall and you get to chat and sit down on a comfortable table/chairs. The gluten free falafel wrap wasn't dry and tasted kind of like a vegan haslet to me, not meaty but texture wise and very satisfying. The sauce was a sweet-ish chilli and it had lettuce in, it was lovely. I got veggie crisps and and a fizzy drink that was just juice based without any sweeteners in as I'm cutting down on sugar, caffeine and chemicals/additives.

Fabulous seafood, really nice and really helpful staff. Cosy little restaurant, well worth a visit.
