The best restaurants serving British food in East of England

Near faultless Sunday Roast with best Yorkshire and cauliflower cheese ever! High quality ingredients professionally prepared and delivered with attentive service in a lovely setting. Good portion size and overall great value too. Lovely experience we will be going again!

Lovely traditional English pub serving up great food with half decent beer in a lovely location. I'd love to see a little more craft beer on tap (perhaps a Verdant?!)

As a couple we went twice in a week, the second time because we’re so pleased with the food and the service, but the second time was a disappointment. On the first visit our meals were the sea bass and the fish pie, which was a “special” and had nice chunks of salmon, prawns and white fish with a hot mash topping, obviously freshly cooked, both meals were excellent. Also the person serving us was very knowledgeable about the food and the drinks menu. The Mediterranean style lager was surprisingly tasty as he said. He also took some time to talk with us, which was very welcoming. However on our second visit the service was slower, there was no “specials” menu and the food we chose was disappointing. The chicken curry was pleasant but not outstanding, and there didn’t appear to be much variety of flavours in the sauce. The lasagne appeared very basic, okay but not outstanding. It almost felt like we’re in a different pub! The redeeming feature was the log fire near our table which added to a good atmosphere.

Really nice food- burgers are totally fresh, good selection of flavoured beers, ciders, and small batch breweries. Will be returning for sure

We went to Harry Ramsden's for a fish and chips afternoon tea. The servers April and Hollie were excellent as are all the staff. Will definitely be going back again soon.

We booked this venue to gather after my son's funeral. 30 people. We were allowed access out of hours to set up our memory table and memorial book. The food was fresh and plentiful (although it would have benefitted from some salad garnish - if I'm being picky!) and the bar tab proved to be very reasonable. The environment was clean and spacious and the staff were unobtrusive and efficient. It was as stress-free for me as it could be as all I had to do was concentrate on my guests. I would like to thank the management and staff and we plan to visit for meals in the future.

Absolutely fantastic evening. From the atmosphere, service to the most delicious food! Highly recommended, we'll certainly be back very soon. Thank you all at Walpole Arms.

Sue was just incredible! The food is DELICIOUS, the pub itself is super quaint and even dog-friendly.....an absolute must and can't wait to return!

Amazing Sunday Roast and great staff at this lovely country pub. Brilliant waitress and so much top quality home cooked food.

Lovely pub with great selection of beer on tap. Great food and good options. Staff are brilliant really friendly and polite. They were so welcoming to me my wife my dog and new born child. Location is amazing 10/10 would recommend on.

It was probably my first visit to a UK pub or restaurant in over 20 years & also in my 1970s home village. Table booked by a Norfolk friend, purely based on Google recommendation, to follow a burial service in village church. It was midday Wednesday & only two people, so booking was not necessary. Entire experience was 1st class. Ver friendly, just right degree of service perfectly judging the time but also very honest on recommendations for food & drink, both of which were excellent & for reasonable prices. After the meal, invited to sit in the comfortable sofas around the fire next to the bar. Being a quiet, mid-week day, which though suited us well, I can't judge the atmosphere too well, but having been taken on a quick tour of the building, I can imagine it's a fabulous place when full of life. Highly recommended & big Dankeschön for brightening up an otherwise sombre day. Maybe I'll be back next year to try out the Biergarten! Prost🍺

Food was superb its a lovely village pub great service friendly staff and very helpful

SADLY CLOSED PERMANENTLY. SUCH A LOSS TO US ALL. 😭 A wonderfully warm and friendly welcome here.. the food is gorgeous and you can even watch the skittles on a screen, if you can't get close enough to see! Hubby tells me the range of beers is great.. I'm just happy to see plenty of fruit ciders in the cold cabinet 😉 Good car park on pub land.. a garden too, though not yet visited due to it being a very cold March! I thoroughly recommend this family friendly, old fashioned pub with the best of old fashioned values. 😁

Fabulous food and absolutely lovely friendly staff, you need to prebook in advance for Sunday lunch as its the best around and books up very quick.

Not been to Waltham abbey for many years popped in The Angel for a drink staff were very friendly looked clean with a happy atmosphere will eat next time as menu look a traditional pub food. Nice to see a old pub pub....
