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

A stunning place in a stunning location, let down by mis management, no food available on the menu, which I read is the norm. Not satisfactory as we were residents who didn't want to travel outside of the pub. 30 seconds walk to roys, which was ideal on a shopping trip. But the food when it did arrive was tepid! And not very enjoyable...but the icing on the cake was when we sat there for three hours and witnessed the young barman who truly did not smile once...not a welcoming sight for customers!

Four of us visited on a Saturday lunchtime for a birthday/Christmas meal and had pre booked the set Christmas menu. All of us agreed that everything was absolutely delicious. The turkey was very tasty along with everything else on our plates. We honestly couldn't fault it and we all agreed it was the best roast we have had in any restaurant. The whole three courses were lovely and very reasonably priced. Service was warm and friendly. The pub was beautifully decorated for Christmas. Well done everyone there we shall definitely return.

Site was ok for a pitch up site. Very noisy near and close to the road, ok for one night I suppose if your stuck. The Green Man pub very basic and not like the pictures are showing on Trip Advisor. Not the most scenic site in Norfolk. Will not return .

It's our fav place for beer and pool 🎱..

The normal excellent food and service was simply missing tonight, enough to take this off our list fir the future. We visit here around 8 times a year. Tonight we booked a Christmas meal. Soup was lovely. Pate arrived as two large slices with no relish or chutney but only 3 very small pieces of toasted fresh bread - a request for more bread resulted in 2 cold white slices of store bread. Main meal arrived- one had 1 slice of gammon and 2 slices of turkey, the other 4 slices of turkey - all were very. Veru dry. Covered in a largely amount of congealed gravy. With frozen roast potatoes which were not hot, just warm. Vegetables of Brussels, carrots, broccoli and red cabbage along with pigs in blankets were all OK. No parsnips. We sent them both back. Two desserts - Christmas pudding which was lovely and a cheesecake which though huge, wasn't a cheesecake. Two meals with 2 Guinness cost us £60, after a ruffled waitress "comp'd" the drinks.

Absolutely lovely pub, probably the best roast I have ever had. The food was amazing and staff were so friendly and helpful. Highly recommend!

I have eaten here before in September and found the whole Experience to be outstanding so i booked my Family and friends in for a Winter Solstices Luncheon And we all enjoyed are Meals me and my Brother started with Blickling Pheasant Sausage {local to The Gunton Arms} and we both Enjoyed our Starters and i missed on the menu this on the blackboard not the menu that it was pheasant meat made into a sausage and this was a nice surprise this was served on a bed of Lentils. Are mains where also Outstanding Mum my is Vegetarian so for main went for Duck egg and a side of chips on my Recommendation and our Waitress recommendation {Trinity} and we all really Enjoyed our Mains and i must say the Farmhouese Chicken was so succulent and Moorish i finshed mine and my Brothers off then Derserts for everyone else in the party and a extra Tiramisu martini that i started Our Luncheon with as a Aperitif as i really liked this {seasonally Cocktail} Thank you Gunton Arms Team we will be back

Incredibly disappointing. We are regular visitors to Wells having owned a caravan at Pinewoods for 10 years. The Globe was always our go to for food and drinks when in the town and we had always vowed to stay there on day. This was our first time with you and will sadly be our last. The room, the service and the overall experience makes it an easy decision to stay elsewhere next time. A real shame.

The food at Plattens was very good. Our Cod was beautifully cooked with no bones. We enjoyed a lovely cup of tea, while our food was being cooked fresh. The table cutlery and crockery were spotlessly clean. As were the washroom facilities. The restaurant was warm and the Christmas decorations were charming. It was all very much appreciated on what proved to be quite a wet and cold day in Wells. I would like to especially commend the nice young man who showed us our table, took our order and served us. He had excellent customer service skills. He acknowledged you as soon as you approached the counter to order, even if he was doing another job and couldn't help you just then. He was polite, efficient and conscientious. I hope Plattens look after him because he is one of the reasons we would return to eat there again.

The restaurant is out in the sticks so there was plenty of parking. The room was very quirky, full of pig ornaments and pictures. The table decor was very simple. The food was amazingly good. Simple dishes cooked just right. Mrs Barganax opted for the belly pork and black pudding. I had the half bbq chicken. Alas, there was no room for dessert.

Thought we'd give it a try on a wet & windy day in Dec..glad we did! Compliments to the chef & staff it was fab. Delicious steak & ale pie, the sticky toffee pudding was to die for all homemade! Heard they may be changing hands...who ever takes over DONT CHANGE A THING!

My friend booked a table for us, 3 adults, 2 children and 4 dogs. 4 of us had a carvery and 1 had a nut roast. Food was amazing, especially that parsnips! The staff were really helpful and accommodating. Super dog friendly, the dogs were given a bowl of water on arrival and all had a doggy roast dinner. Thank you

I ate here on consecutive nights during my weekend in Blakeney, since my first visit was excellent in almost every respect. The waiter was very helpful when I complained about the sticky table, explaining that it was due to over-use of sanitzer and moving me to another table with a glass top. My simple haddock and chips was perfect. Thin crispy batter, a generous helping of tartare sauce and deliciously minty pea puree. On the second night the starter of smoked mackerel pate and the seared tuna and cucumber salsa of the mains were similarly excellent. But the bed of couscous was drenched in a shoyu-based dressing that was inedibly salty. I do not mean just a bit salty. I mean heart-attack salty. A professional chef should obviously not make such a simple error and at the very least should taste their creation before passing it for service. I duly complained (though did not just send it back as I should have). The waiter deleted the service charge without my asking, but I left gasping for water despite having eaten barely 10% of the cous cous. On reflection the waiter should have apologized and returned it to the kitchen themself. The incident marred what would otherwise have been a 5-star review.

On a recent trip on the Norfolk Broads, we happened upon The Dog and had some lunch. Nice welcome and really good food! The Dog Menu was a particularly nice touch, bought some treats for the pooch, which she loved. The food was so good that on our last day, on the way back to the boatyard, we did a little detour and returned for another meal. Highly recommend, will definitely return! Thank you.

Excellent pub. Good food which exceeded our expectations. Great service from the lady behind the bar. Let us order despite us cutting it fine near cut off time just before 2PM and even allowed us to add desert. Warm and welcoming with roaring log fire. Ideal if you are visiting Hickling Broad nature reserve at the end of the road. We look forward to going back in the future.
