The best restaurants serving British food in Broadland East of England

We have spent a week on the Broads eating in pubs most nights and this place was head and shoulders above the rest. The food is really good pub fare, well prepared and presented but most importantly the staff are happy to see the customers rather than treating us as an inconvenience. We had a great meal and an enjoyable evening

We had the most perfect day at the Norfolk Mead for our wedding. Frankie and Danni were so helpful throughout the planning process and on the day they were both amazing and made sure everything ran smoothly. They were always prompt with their replies and nothing was too much trouble for them. All the staff were lovely and friendly. The food was delicious and the venue itself was beautiful. Being able to have some time in the spa the morning after our wedding was a perfect way to unwind and reflect on the day. We could not have asked for a better venue!

We had booked in for a special family breakfast. When we arrived there was no knowledge of our booking and we were clearly an inconvenience to the staff. The quality of the breakfast was good but too often staff did not replenish the food when it had run out and dirty plates etc.. were not taken away.

Made a 60 mile trip to attend an event organised by the Pure City Soul Club and was really impressed with not just the music, but by the hospitality offered by the team at The Sole And Heel. Super friendly, polite, very efficient at both serving drinks and food, which in itself was incredibly tasty, with generous portions and very reasonably priced too. We’ll absolutely visit again, we cannot recommend this place enough

We went for a meal for my Fiancé’s birthday last Tuesday 13th May and had the most incredible food experience that we’ve had here in beautiful Norfolk. Having lived here for 6 years after moving from Wales we’ve always tried different establishments. Everything was so delicious and all the flavours from our starters to our mains were amazing. So well presented and cleverly created. We are so lucky to have this gem on our doorstep. Thankyou to all staff involved in the kitchen & front of house. Excellent job 😊

Happened across this lovely place on a walk with our dog. We all had ice cream including the dog with a very nice brownie to follow. Sit amongst the trees and just listen to the birds and watch the world go by.

Was passing and popped in for the Italian night. Beautiful lasagne freshly cooked. The service was delightful and we will be going back. God bless 🙏

Having driven past The Fox many times we decided to try it whilst on holiday last week as a party of six. What can I say but wow! Totally blown away by the whole experience where the food quality and portions are superb. We will return when we are next over in North Norfolk.

We had Sunday lunch to celebrate a birthday. The meal was absolutely superb, the best Sunday lunch I've ever eaten in a restaurant. The soup I had was absolutely delicious, the roast chicken was cooked beautifully with stuffing, roast potatoes, red cabbage, brocolli, green beans and carrots. I even got a massive Yorkshire pudding! My husband had satay chicken to start, absolutely lovely, then roast beef, cooked just the way he likes it. Another in our party had the pork with crackling, she loved it. Desserts were delicious too, chocolate torte, poached pear and Baileys cheesecake, I was so full, I couldn't manage one but just had a taste. Then coffee and a chocolate. Wow, amazing and well worth the money. Oh, and the staff were brilliant too. I'd recommend this to everyone.

Lovely Sunday lunch here, the food was delicious and a bonus of plenty of gravy. Great atmosphere and service too, Dog friendly.

Absolutely love this place, we always get looked after so well, and the food is amazing as well as the beers. Great couple of guest rooms and great prices all round. Thanks again, and it won't be too long before we return 😊

Terrible customer service. The gentleman I was greeted with was rude and unwelcoming. We turned around and found a more worthy place. Remember without customers you don’t have a business, so may be worth adjusting your attitude towards a more pleasant experience.

We found this garden centre by chance. I'd intended to eat elsewhere but that fell through so looking for somewhere near to a church we wanted to visit I found this garden centre. It was 1pm on a Sunday and absolutely packed, with a constant stream of people arriving. A good selection of hot and cold food including specials and a lovely selection of cakes. I had quiche, salad and buttered potatoes which was tasty. My husband had Macaroni cheese which was surprisingly generous and came with salad and garlic bread. We rounded it off with a pot of tea and a cake each. It cost £35, which was less than the meal we'd have the previous day, for more food and much better quality. Would definitely recommend and you then have the garden centre to explore as well. Plenty of parking. Service quick even though it was so busy.

The ribs were really tender and good value for money! Haddock and chips were also lovely good size piece of fish! Good selection on ales and gins and really friendly staff!! Will definitely be back!!

Love going here, always friendly, amazing food, been going here for many years now. Defo recommend. Cash only though
