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

After reading the reviews we have to say that we were very disappointed with our visit. We had the 3-course menu which was adequate but not at all exciting. Whilst each course was well cooked, the sauces and accompaniments lacked subtlety and flavours were not well balanced. Difficult to justify a Michelin star on this performance. Over the years we have used a number of Michelin restaurants but sadly this rates as the worst we have visited. It was highly priced and certainly not worth the money we were charged.

Love the take away from this shop. Good quality fish in a light batter. A regular stop when in Norfolk

Relatively slow service as it appears that every meal is cooked once ordered (not sure if that’s normal) however large fish was massive and lovely as were freshly cooked chips! I will return soon 😜

Superb lunch for two adults ( lovely roast ) and 3 children . Staff were all friendly and helpful . Atmosphere was lovely . Thankyou

Dined here twice on our recent visit, we dine here each and every visit. We'll worth the wait if you need to queue. Staff are wonderful and the food range/quality/price is very good. Introduced family who'd never been and also loved it! Top tip - pick up bits from the deli onroute home!

Fabulous and tasty food. Recommended!

We didn’t go in to eat even though I have many times and service and food always always very good, quick and friendly. On the day I am feeding back about we were quite distressed, it was very cold and our car had broken down on the Hardwick. We went into the restaurant and the young lad, very tall couldn’t have been more helpful. A huge asset to your business. Offered help and a hot drink. He said we could use the phone if we needed. In a time of need you have there a lovely human being, please give him the praise he fully deserves and look after him, he is a good one.

Wonderful lunch today with ciapaninis filled with chicken, bacon, mayo and avocado and the chunkiest chips ever. Delicious food and great service. A welcome oasis from a bitingly cold wind despite the sunshine. Great value for money too.

Stayed for one night and lunch, absolutely lovely place, beautiful room and delicious food. Very friendly staff. Every possible need thought of with some lovely little touches. Breakfast amazing!!

Food was good, staff were friendly and food was brought out within minutes of us ordering. At £28 for both of us the price wasn’t bad either. But the only problem was we did not realise that dogs were allowed into the restaurant part. At one point there were 5 big long haired dogs near us. The dogs were wet so they smelt quite bad. We ate up has fast as we could and left. We would not go back into the restaurant part again. But next time we will just get takeaway,

Looks lovely place to eat went for bite to eat before going to Luminate coffee cups very nice but food disappointing Quiche was over cooked and greasy no filling salad was just leaves . cottage pie came in a bowl with roasted veg in another bowl no plate weird way to eat a meal . Won’t be returning

Tremendous hospitality, quality and price. Being a UK curry connoisseur, I thoroughly recommend the Northgate. Whatever your favourite dish it will meet your expectations.

Lovely decor and atmosphere as is expected for castle rising area, had a lovely cuppa and why the brownie wasn't anything good or something I recommend (in this case thr toffee crispy brownie), the aforementioned atmosphere makes up for this . Prices are reasonable.

Dan and his staff always make every visit fun and welcoming, and the food is incredible. My parents Alan and Norma are a regular fixture there with good reason.

The restaurant is very popular and the staff are welcoming and helpful. However I was disappointed by the food. The Katsu chicken was just a piece of chicken breast covered by a thin layer of crumbs, with a deepfried kale leaf which tasted oily. My dessert was described as saffron poached pear in white chocolate ganache. It turned out to be four thin yellow slices of pear stuck down with a thick gluey sauce... I think this recipe needs altering . I am coming again in a few weeks time so I hope the cooking improves.
