The best restaurants serving French food in Mancroft Norwich East of England

Top-tier food, flowing wine, and a buzzing atmosphere—L’Hexagone sets the perfect stage for a brilliant night. Thomas and Gemma’s warm, inviting energy made it easy to unwind, share laughs, and soak up the experience. Service was seamless, adding to the effortless charm of the evening. Already looking forward to the next visit—thank you!

We visited the Hidden Chef last night as we wanted to enjoy the experience one last time, and to support Dean and Co in their last weekend at the Brasserie. Once again the food was exceptional and the atmosphere friendly and welcome. We will miss having this wonderful restaurant on our door step but are delighted that we will be able to savour Deans delights from the Deli. Good luck in your new ventures , you deserve every Success these bring ❤️

Up and beyond service pleasant staff lovely atmosphere. Fanatic food!

This was my first visit and it was fabulous. I did find the place hard to find, however, it was very close to Jarrolds on Exchange Street! I received a very warm welcome and was offered a choice of where to sit, opting fo in the window. My vegetarian dish of butternut squash tarte tatine was adjusted for my preference and together with the side salad was absolutely delicious! Atmosphere very comfortable and service by Thereza excellent! Service charge added on the bill.

Buena comida honesta Somos una familia de 5. En dos visitas probamos y compartimos todo el menú! Todo sabía excelente. Jakey obviamente ama su profesión y sabe lo que hace. ¡Altamente recomendado! Tener una fiesta por sólo unos kilos. .

The positive was that the food was excellent. Sadly other aspects of the experience left a bit to be desired: 1) no hand towels in the toilets (basic stuff in a restaurant trying to be high end), 2) ridiculously noisy environment which impacted on the next point, 3) with every dish the server had to give a blow by blow description but the noise was so loud I never heard anything, 4) the arrival of dish and performance of the servers description interrupted conversations and I thought rather rude 5) the staff seemed rather tense and grumpy probably because we were largely tee total and didn’t want to buy alcohol, 6) a rather poor selection of non-alcoholic beers. So I couldn’t fault the food but I cannot give more than 3 stars for what was £84 per head in terms of the ‘overall experience’. There are much better restaurants locally for ‘experience’ and ‘value’.
