The best restaurants in King's Lynn and West Norfolk East of England

Christmas dinner out with the family for the first time ever… heard so much negativity towards a restaurant Christmas dinner but the lattice house made it the perfect day with sheer quality food and astonishing value for money! If your family is relatively small and would rather not cook on Christmas Day, 2025, and drink with zero pressure on time slots, then book up! I expect us to place a repeat booking… thank you for an all round positive experience!

Pleasant service from friendly staff. Variety of sandwiches really good, freshly prepared with really good baguettes. Very reasonable prices. Filled the gap at lunchtime. Also choice of white and wholemeal - recommend the wholemeal.

Stopped by for takeaway the other day and I was very impressed by the short amount of time it took to put together my order and for it to still taste great. I ordered a pasta which looked and tasted delicious. The chicken pizza with pineapple and BBQ sauce was amazing but the sicilian pizza was quite disappointing as it was plain and had very small quantities of each ingredient. Can’t wait to soon try the dessert pizzas.

Popped in for some lunch, clubhouse was freezing cold and didn’t bother to stop, waitress dressed unprofessionaly and certainly no smile

This is one of the best sweet shops I’ve seen. There are sooo many old style sweets, American sweets, fudge, rock to choose from. It’s a brilliant little shop for a sugar fix.

Having managed to stay in a bed & breakfast without the breakfast, I was delighted at finding this wonderful little cafe at Kings Lynn station. I just had a fried egg sandwich, two eggs with brown bread, but other breakfast fare was available at very reasonable prices. Such a nice change from the usual high priced franchises that you usually find.

Great fish and chips and really friendly service. I always come here when I go to Kings Lynn. I wish it was more often. Nice little cafe upstairs.

Bentinck is a proper old estate pub it has plenty of characters in there

Id like to see this bus so i can photo it,As i only once saw it parked in Teddy Benny Way from a passing Coasthopper Topaz bus[Sadly all gone now]i was too slow to photo it from this bus.Was it a former West Midlands Metrobus[It IS a Metrobus]as it opens evenings only i cant get there due to wait for it....no buses on an evening here after 1900-2000..id like to try the bar....

Came here for a light lunch with family. Very nice and clean atmosphere inside with pleasant decor. I, with an egg allergy often feel unwelcome in restaurants, and find it difficult to relax and enjoy meals out, but here, no request was too much trouble. The staff were kind and patient, with the chef even coming out of the kitchen to reassure me, and check on details of all of our meals. I've never felt so welcome and at ease in a café and the extra efforts of the owners of The Spontaneous Cuppa really made a difference. I ordered a baked potato, with cheese and chives: the side salad was delicious, as was the potato, and the rest of my family thoroughly enjoyed their meals too. Feeling included in meals like this is important, especially for those of us who have allergies and dietary requirements. I can thoroughly recommend The Spontaneous Cuppa to anyone looking for a tasty lunch, especially to those with extra dietary requirements.

Excellent find! Very appealing shop front and though small, really pleasant inside. We had a warm welcome from a young lady who took our order promptly. Our flat white and tea were very good. It was our first visit to Downham Market, a pleasant small town so when we go back we will revisit The Seat.

We stopped here thinking we would have lunch, sadly it was disappointing, service was poor ,tea was cold and scone "cream" was piled on scone no option for me to decide ( not real ceam) sandwich huge but not tasty, room was cold. They were busy getting organised for night market so understandable but we won't be back sadly

Ordered a takeaway - got it home to find the order was wrong and one of the dishes was half the size of the other one (the same price though) when ringing them back they couldn’t be bothered to rectify it.

Best Sunday lunch for miles! You get to help yourself to all vegetables, mash, stuffing balls, Yorkshire puddings and cauliflower cheese, all cooked to perfection. The gravy is AMAZING - thick and tasty!! Will definitely be returning.

We booked a table for Sunday at 4 30pm to which we arrived, shown a table handed a menu to which we order 2 roast beef meals, about 5 minutes later the waiter came back to say sorry sold out but do have a special board, on it was one thing on it, I order the only thing which was the liver, again after 5 minutes she came back to say sorry sold out I than asked what could she offer and Ham egg and chips??? At this point we left to go to a near by restaurant and got what we wonted and was a lot cheaper. This is not the first time we have tried to use a local restaurant, with out successful out come. There may not be a third time?
