The best restaurants in North Norfolk East of England

Attened Norada on Christmas Eve as we were recommended by other friends. Great service from the owner and our waiter Harvey was so polite and attentive. We had Lamb Shanks and Souvlaki Kebabs which were cooked to perfection. A massive selection of beers and spirits and what was surprising just how happy tye staff were. Been to many establishments where staff are just not happy. Here at Norada they staff are ever so friendly.

Love the Chubby Panda! Best Chinese around. Kung Po is amazing 😁

We booked for the Wednesday five course meal deal and were not disappointed. The restaurant itself has a cafe vibe and would benefit from more accessories to the decor but it was bright and clean. Service was swift, but our main course order was taken as we were eating our starters which felt odd. Staff were respectful and helpful. The food was tasty and plentiful but not exactly five courses, more starters and sides. This did not hinder our enjoyment as we ate more than enough. The chicken in my murgh makhni was very tender and the prawn puri starter was lovely. Kingfisher 650ml lager was £6.50. The rest of my party agreed it was well worth the visit.

Had a pre Christmas show turkey meal .. WOW just WOW an excellent meal the chef excelled themselves.. so tasty will definitely go again

Having lived in Leicester for many years before moving to Holt we’re very used to a good curry (some of the best anywhere in the country) so wasn’t expecting too much from here but Taste of India in Holt has surpassed our expectations and then some. It’s an intimate and small restaurant so sometimes hard to get a table as it’s very popular with the locals and tourists alike so I highly recommend you book in advance if you wish to visit here. The chef produces some really authentic dishes along with the traditional favourites with the Dansak worthy of a special mention (best we’ve ever had!) and will gladly spice them up if, like us, you like lots of heat! Their Tarka Dall and plain naan are also exceptional and worth a mention, we’ve never had a bad meal from here with the staff always attentive and accommodating. The only slight negative would be the decor could do with updating and the seating re-covering but you don’t go there to eat the seating do you? If you are after a great Indian meal then I would say this is the best restaurant around, visited many others in both Sheringham and Cromer and they just don’t compare. I highly recommend The Taste Of India if you are after a good curry.

always have a lovely experience, the one drawback is that it can get quite crowded as it is only a small establishment, but they do have downstairs seating and outside seating as well.

Amazing fish and chips the chicken burgers are great too amazing service and the guys are always friendly best I’ve ever had I’ve used wills for the last 3 years now

Stopped for a light lunch whilst spending a day in Wells. A really good choice. Friendly service and really good food. Nothing fancy just a good choice (including daily specials) really well prepared.

Picked up takeaway fish and chips on our way home from Cromer. The chips were good, however, cod was inedible. It was dry and so hard we couldn't eat it. The batter was so hard we couldn't cut with a knife. Can only assume that it was cooked and kept hot for a very long time. Not good enough at £17.60 for two pieces of cod which we threw away and £4.00 for a large portion of chips, albeit good, except we didn't ask for a large portion. Very disappointing, and won't be visiting again.

The Good - the fish and chips were lovely, when you eventually get them (see The Bad). The Bad - their food is made on order, so not like a conventional fish and chip shop where the food is pretty much already made and the service is fast. I was in the queue for probably 3 quarters of an hour (no exaggeration). As soon as you’re inside the shop, you’re asked what you want, which gives you a false sense of optimism. It just means your food is made on order though. Meanwhile, all the customers in front of you, once they start being served at the till, take about 10 minutes each. There is only one person serving and two people cooking. I understand why they’re doing this - it’s to increase their margin and avoid wastage. But all that comes at a cost to the customer who suffers awful service. Maybe think about having two people on service and see your reviews regularly scoring 5.

I’ve been going to Stiffkey stores for 10 years. My only question is, why have so many people got sticks up their arses ? The amount of moaning in these reviews has nothing to do with the personalities of the staff at Stiffkey Stores and everything to do with the fruitless lives of the greater British public. My favourite things about Stiffkey Stores are the staff for one, the treacle flapjack and of course the coffee. These people work hard, they work hard to maintain a business in a rural area, and more importantly, in an industry that is saturated and fragile. It’s an attractive destination for a lot of people. That’s a hard thing to achieve. What do you actually want them to do other than serve you? Fix your car? Do your washing? It’s a store, a very good one I might add.

Awful food, left most of it, sausage burnt, frozen chips were hard, gravy awful. Always wanted to try the food here but very disappointed.

The best gelato in town.. super tasty like the Italian gelato.. so many different flavors and the best service too.. pistacchio gelato super good.. grazie mille

Was empty on arrival which was odd? The service was poor and the food was over cooked and the contents of the sea food platter were reduced to scaps compared to our last visit.

The Sculthorpe Mill is an absolute gem of a find. From the welcome to the check out, service is 100% - there's a genuine warmth from the staff towards guests. Food is amazing - we ate dinner and breakfast - having both a varied menu that changes regularly depending on the season. Good to see local seasonal produce being used wherever possible. Rooms are v. comfy and a perfect retreat after a fab. dinner.
