    Birthday treat meal this time with a Gluten Free guest who found the Beer Battered Fish & Chips excellent. Difficult to find venues with so many GF options and flexibility for fussy eaters like moi! Vegan wine options cool. Highly recommended

    Local isn’t always best, but in this case it is very close. The festive themed Arancini were surprisingly good, paired with Aioli - an unusual combo which somehow worked well. We are lucky to be so near and will return next week for a special meal. Avoiding the Christmas chaos that is Norwich at this time of year too!

    15 minutes from the centre of Norwich, set in the countryside next to the River Yare. Great menu and good service. Highly recommend.

    First visit in a while, so hoping things had improved. Friendly greeting to a very quiet place. Had a woodburner going which was pleasant. They had Aspall back on, which was a bonus and the price of their drinks is very good compared to other places. At least you do not get ripped off for a dash of coke! The selection of bread was nice if a bit expensive. My sardine starter was very nice. Our main dishes were okay but nothing to get too excited about. The cheesecake was nice, but once again, for what it was, expensive. There was enough choice on the menu to return and give it another go. The place is well decorated and tables set out nicely, although the napkin not the best. We were disappointed the owner did not speak, bearing in mind, we were probably only 2 of 10 at most, in the place. I hope things pick up for them, possibly need something else to attract people over these cold winter nights.

    Absolutely gorgeous roast dinner , please however could you let customers know the chicken roast is on the bone as this wasn’t expected. Not everyone eats chicken in the bone.

    Very disappointed. We were the only diners. The food was bland and there was not much you could choose from. Still the staff were friendly. We were expecting a cosier atmosphere and better quality food.
