The best restaurants serving British food in Broadland East of England

Had a lovely meal at the restaurant for my birthday. The food was absolutely fantastic and the portions were huge. Definitely worth another visit or two when in Aylsham.

We visited for a mid week anniversary meal. We had passed by many times on dog walks but this was our 1st time to come in and eat, it lived up to expectations. I had the mackerel dish and my partner the smoked haddock, followed by fruit crumble and the sticky toffee pud. Our meals were delicious and we came away feeling very well fed. The members of staff were all lovely and we were well looked after. We will definitely be back.

Son had his wedding blessing here, together with bridal breakfast, evening reception and breakfast following day (hired several of the cottages as well as rooms in the main hotel - they couldn't be faulted.) Food was exceptional, so full from the breakfast ( huge home made burgers, chicken breast and BBQ with sides that beat anything I'd had in my previous 60 years), bars in events venue and main hotel, care from staff couldn't be faulted. With a walk through the gardens to the river at the end so see the broads boats go by while enjoying the sun, prior to the evening events. Guests enjoyed the more lively evening when the sound system was cranked up, before those who had to make their way to other places started leaving. Following morning breakfast was more than ample to get through to evening, a buffet bar plus cooked to order menus, full English was good, or a mountain of scrambled egg on toast with a thick large sliver of salmon as the roof. Highly recommend

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!

It was cold in the bar area. The outside space will be great for the summer, I'll wait until then to go back

What a fantastic find. Thank you, Google. I can honestly say the best ROAST POTATOES 🥔 I have ever had.

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.

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 and good value breakfast on the riverside! Lovely customer service and great view. Great cakes and coffee Dogs welcome outside.

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

My girlfriend went in to order a cup of takeaway tea. She was told they had stopped serving at half past two. Fair enough. She was absolutely desperate for the toilet and said so to the lady there, asking if it would be possible just to quickly use the loo. She was told ‘no’ as it had been cleaned. Pretty mean spirited I think. I notice many people have mentioned how friendly the staff are. When things are going fine it is easy to be friendly, a little bit of humanity here would have shown the owners to be truly thoughtful.

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.

Visiting family in Reedham from Weymouth for the weekend, 10 of us and a child walked in and the man and lady working were really welcoming and accommodating. We hadn't planned on the visit but the guy was able to single handedly prepare all of us a delicious hot meal and there was even an option for a Vegan! We were incredibly grateful for the service because due to the number of us turning up unannounced, they could have just turned our request for food down, but instead he put extra effort to fit us in and let us know what he would able to do for us. There's also a beautiful dog called Sasha. Thank you for having us!

Managed to moor up here twice during our week cruising on the Broads. We enjoyed a really warm welcome on both occasions and great food and service. Highly recommend. Enjoyed the before I remembered to take photos!

Lovely country pub with friendly staff and a good selection of food and beers. I would recommend the fillet steak 🥩 to anyone.
