The best restaurants serving Default food in North Norfolk East of England

After our Sunday morning swim, we always need breakfast! We usually have breakfast in Cromer as it’s on our way home to Northrepps. This morning we decided to have breakfast at the corner house tea room for a change and WOW! What a lovely surprise and experience. First impression was great, our young waitress was lovely, very engaging and bursting with enthusiasm, made us feel valued and very much at home. Fast service and so friendly. It felt very professional, fast flowing and free moving…… busy with a smooth turnover of customers. The breakfast was cooked exactly how I requested and, we left with full bellies 🤣 No panic, dramas or stress. My new favourite place, sincere thanks.

Excellent range of cakes and coffees and really valid pricing along with polite employees and options to have in or take away

Gorgeous little place. Had a vegan breakfast and big breakfast. Portions were generous and the food was hot. My soya hot chocolate was also really warm which is hard to achieve without the milk curdling! The granary bread was just beautiful and melted in your mouth. Service was fantastic. Would absolutely go back.

This is a very special hotel indeed. Kept, by its exuberant owner, in 1920’s style in homage to Agatha Christie who used to stay there. Full of old pictures and bits and bobs. Our bedroom ( medium size) was very comfortable with fun roll top bath but has modern amenities as well. But was next to the kitchen extractor fan which was noisy until 11 pm All the staff, mainly young people, were outstandingly helpful and polite. Nothing was too much trouble and it was the type of service I haven’t seen for many years. Well done. It is also highly popular , and full the nights we were there. Largely I suspect because of the combined dinner, bed and breakfast offerings. At very good value for money. The food was generally delicious and fresh. Duck, halibut, sea trout and the local crab and lobsters were outstanding but the “locally caught king prawns which, like the lobster, were landed today “ were obviously frozen as were tasteless and they ( king prawns) don’t live in UK waters. That was the only disappointment on the menu, which I wouldn’t have mentioned except they had been really hyped up by the enthusiastic person I assume was the owner. Good well chosen wine list and fine cocktails The reason I haven’t given five stars is with the regimented way guests eat. Severe set 25 minute table timings for breakfast and dinner. I do understand that the kitchen needs to be paced to cook such good food to order, but the timings on offer were not good for many of the customers. By the time we arrived to check in at 3pm after a long drive we had to settle for a 6.30 supper and 9.15 breakfast. The next day breakfast wasn’t available until 9.30 … hopeless for anyone who works or has to leave earlier.. and I overheard two couples saying their 6.30pm slot was far too early for dinner , but that was all that was left because the best table times had already been given to people from outside who had booked in for a meal. You are asked to go to the bar half an hour before your meal where you receive some underwhelming amuse bouche and are expected to buy a drink whilst perusing the menu. This is to help the chef timings but also allows for tables to be turned over and reset. The last day we were there the small bar was over crowded and we had to wait an hour to be shown our table. Service was then very slow. I just couldn’t eat rich food at 9pm having waited by then two and a half hours. So because I prefer more personalised service and eating at a time that suits my stomach, and I like to be sat at my table and not held in a “ holding pen” this is not an experience I personally wish to experience again. Having said that I realise that this hotel really does suit many of its guests, who really loved it. So it’s only my own opinion and I suspect I’m in a very small minority

I was on holiday by Cromer and thought we’d give this cafe a try as we had our shih tzu (yogi) with us and didn’t want to leave him out of the holiday!! This place is lovely and had a great atmosphere all around the restaurant. I was very impressed with the gorgeous decorations around the restaurant. You can definitely tell that the staff are very experienced in what they do as well as they looked after yogi very well and had a very positive attitude towards customers! Hope I’ll visit again sometime! Thank you! 🐶💕

Birthday treat from the wife...and what a treat....the food was truly amazing...the aromas coming out from the open kitchen simply mouthwatering...the first time we gave been here....and if I had my way...be there every week....well worth a visit...fantastic evening....well done and thznk you....see you very soon.

Best place to visit for lunch in wroxham as massive portions of food for a good price. The service is always wonderful and my dog Bertie loves the attention and especially the gravy bones the homemade cakes and sausage roll are on another level they taste outstanding. Please visit for yourself as won’t be disappointed or thinking of a boat trip stop here for a picnic box’s full of delicious delights

This restaurant, within the hotel, but open to the public, is perfect. The service was excellent, friendly and professional. The food was exceptional - beautifully presented and very tasty. We can see why it is so popular with the locals and we look forward to eating here again - simply a great experience!

Very friendly staff. The coffee was superb - speaking for the cappuccino & the mocha. Good selection of sweet & savoury accompaniments. Bought the tote bag!

Don’t be put off by appearances. On first sight Stubby’s looks like any old fast food place, but in fact it serves freshly made, delicious pizza, albeit with a thick crust round the outside. Staff are very friendly and accommodating. It’s fairly small and I’d recommend booking in the evening.

What can I say that hasn’t already been said but I would like to add something anyway! Meadowsweet isn’t a cheap option when it comes to dining out. However, they say you get what you pay for, and this certainly applies here! Food is excellent and the team, both the kitchen and front of house, work seamlessly together to provide an exemplary experience.

Chose Oh Crumbs purely at random. Good choice - very tasty Cromer Crab sandwiches on brown. They have a serving hatch off the pavement a few yards from the River Burke bridge approach. Placed order through window, waited a few minutes then order arrived. Went and ate on a bench by the bird feeding area next to the bridge. Would recommend.

What a gem. On the Rebellion Way bike route, we had coffee and cake each day (obvs) and this place provided the best of both during 5 days/ coffee stops in Norfolk. Great service too.

We have just been for our first Sunday Lunch at the Olive Tree Bistro, wow!, what a feast. Lovely warm welcome, nice comfortable surroundings, excellent freshly cooked food. I had the Turkey and my Wife the Beef, came on a very hot plate with perfect Yorkshire pudding, roast potatoes, stuffing and gravy, plus lots of meat. Vegetables served separately in dish, 4 different veg plus cauliflower cheese and extra jug of gravy. We could not quite manage it all, just had a coffee afterwards. We came away feeling like we had eaten a very good well cooked meal. Definitely recommended and will return. Must add that all the Staff were lovely and welcoming.

What a lovely little place! We were staying in the area with no clue on where to eat. The place we were staying in had left a few takeaway leaflets and we saw that this place had a restaurant. We never would have found this place if we hadn't seen the leaflets. The restaurant was small but welcoming with a very good selection on vegan ( and regular ) dishes. Very friendly helpful staff. Lovely food. Overall a very nice experience. We hope to come back one day
