Very good service from the initial phone call till we left after an amazing birthday celebratory afternoon tea. They certainly don't skimp on anything. The sandwiches and savouries were really tasty as were the scones ( both cheese and fruit) and the various cakes. They catered well for the vegetarians amongst us We had ordered a decorated birthday ( A carrot cake) that looked really good and tasted great) Well worth it. They boxed up what we didn't have. The total cost included the very large birthday cake and Prosecco and drinks. Highly recommended. The staff were friendly attentive and clearly wanted to provide a great service which they clearly did . For a large group please ring in advance as well as dietary requirements. Excellent at liaising to ensure it goes well

Ah, just great. We stopped here before and after doing a 5 mile circular walk in the area. The café is bright, modern and clean. Staff were exceptionally friendly, helpful and efficient. That’s why we came back again at the end of the walk. The food was great. The generous pot of tea was much appreciated. The iced coffee was just the ticket at the end of this warm day. We’ll be back!

A wonderful lunch yet again!! This Restaurant has the best atmosphere, service and food in north West Norfolk. It is clean and welcoming and very reasonably priced. We have had Sunday lunch there for the last couple of months and long may it continue.

Came for breakfast before popping round to see the ruins. Nice and airy café with art work for sale on the walls. Friendly service, orders are taken at the counter and food brought to your table. A nice selection of sandwiches and lunches. We had a bacon sandwich and a warm cheese and ham croissant, both of which were very good. The coffee was particularly good.
