The landlord is extremely rude and obnoxious. He has converted a bar into a 'family friendly' dininng area - ha!!! He actually shouted at a family with a small child because the child was making a noise - what does he expect from children. We ordered a meal for 8pm and after much complaining to the waitress we eventually got it at 9.15pm. Having had to wait that long you would at least have though the landlord or chef would have the decency to apologise. Had we not had a couiple of drinks making it impossible to drive anywhere else we would have left well before our meal was served. The food was very average so when we told the landlord we weren't happy he became very abusive and rude. If you want a convivial family friendly pub/restaurant then go elsewhere - this certainly is not family friendly or convivial.

Good menu and fine food, reasonably priced.

Stuffed mushrooms en croute were very tasty with a lovely sauce.

The sirloin steak was medium rather than the medium rare asked for but was better quality than often found in 'pub food'. The Chips were exceptional.

Staff were very welcoming and, as it is a rather small dining area it won't be long before booking will essential.

We have been a fan of the Olive Branch since it opened and consider it our Norfolk eatery of choice!
The food is always fabulous, the ambience and staff most welcoming.
If you are looking for a special meal or even a night out to treat yourselves then I can highly recommend it. They also do great priced and tasy lunches and the cafe which is open in the day does amazing cakes and other light bites.
A place definetly worthy of praise

Went to Loch Fyne today for a business lunch and was not disappointed. Really friendly and attentive staff, delicious food and nice clean restaurant. I've been for lunch and dinner here, both socially and for business, and always found it a lovely place to go.

We went here for dinner last week and had burgers, with garlic bread and salad on the side - the burger was nice and tasty and not overcooked (who wants a cremated burger?), the chips were great (really crispy!) and the garlic bread was proper homemade sliced bread with garlic butter - delicious. The atmosphere was not as cosy as I like but once a few more people were sitting at nearby tables the atmosphere lifted and it felt warmer but on the whole the staff were friendly, the service good and most importantly the food was good - we would go back and think the fish and chip take away sounds good.

We went here as part of a group celebrating a birthday. Good portions, lots of nice choices on the menu & specials board and friendly staff too. Was well recommended and we will go again.

Enjoyed a lovely lunch with my wife and two kids (aged 10 & 13). Very friendly staff, nice size portions and very reasonable price.

within 5 minutes of entering the bistro, the lady from behind the scenes came out to tell my little girl (6) off for getting her foot on the chair and then told us to get out after my little boy (2) made a bit of noise saying it breaks her heart when children cry! won't be going there again! had better reception at mcdonalds.

We're on a UK tour at the moment and, whilst in Wrenningham, I took my band to Bird in Hand to grab a bite to eat after our sound check. We were blown away by the friendliness of the staff and the quality of the food was fantastic. A big thank you from a rock'n'roller and his hungry musicians!

...Also - I needed somewhere to stay and they recommended a great B&B, just down the road, that turned out to be on a par with the pub!

Having discovered that Nadia's serves soya hot chocolate and makes the most delicious homemade bread I have been a regular and have recommended the cafe to many friends. I also pop into Nadia's for business meetings too. The service is always fast and friendly and of course the food is always fresh and tasty! Great for people with food issues too as there's always something for you! I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Nadia's if you're in Dereham and fancy a light lunch or a scrummy cake and a cuppa.

I went here with my mother after a dog walk as we fancied something light to eat before heading off home and The Globe did just that. We had the pitta breads and hummous and a plate of chips and it was quick to arrive, lovely and hot and just right to tide us over til dinner. We have been back since for a 'proper' lunch and was equally please with the service, the quality of the food and the cost. It's great value and really delicious. I will be going back and would heartily recommend it to others.

Fantasic place to eat

Love the place, really enjoyed the meal, service and the locals!

Always a genuine warm welcome. A gem not to be missed. Good food,good wine list. Small but special.

nice place to eat

There are very few experiences that can be as memorable as our most recent vist to the Drayton Old Lodge.
The service, the atmosphere and the food were excellent. We have always enjoyed or trips to the Old Lodge, whether to an event or just an evening out with friends, but this visit surpassed every expectation. Thanks to all the staff.

The food was wonderful, freshly cooked, the service was brilliant and the atmosphere superb. The refurb and new team have given this a new lease of life.

For the past 18 months we have visited Briarfields regularly and not once have we been let done with the food/wine/service etc. Dot and the team have a really slick operation going on and the staff are very friendly and attentive. So much so we had our wedding here in May. Kate Howlett

My wife and I visited The Ostrich for a meal Sunday night and were very satisfied with the meal. The starter of Goats cheese on a crumpet, sounds unusual but I would highly recommend it. Along with the beer battered fish and cheese steak burger mains, we were both very impressed. Friendly staff and relaxing atmosphere made for a lovely meal.

We recently went to The Ratcatchers where we were welcomed by owner Peter and his staff., This family run Restaurant prides it self on service,excellent food, and a warm friendly atmosphere, we would recommend this restaurant to anyone

Carolyn and her family really go out of their way to extend a warm welcome to you. excellent accomodation and the foods not bad either, value for money you should try their carvery

Al warm welcome awaits you from Yaz and his brothers. If you like Greek food, you will love this place and the Constantia brothers will really help you enjoy your evening with their Greek music. Sensibly priced, nothing is to much trouble for them

This Pub/Restaurant has got a lovely relaxed atmosphere with wonderful food which is reasonably priced. Thoroughly recommend this

My partner and I visited the Hunny Bell on a warm evening in August and it was definitely worth the 30 minute drive over there. We sat outside for a drink before ordering and then sat in the main bar area for our meal. The seating was cosy and comfortable, the food was delicious and the staff were very friendly and quick to serve. After dinner we sat back and relaxed in some comfy seats in the corner before heading off home. Some of the dishes sound quite adventurous and as a fussy eater I stuck with the safety of Fish and Chips (which was spot on!) but after seeing other peoples meals brought out I would be more tempted to try something more exciting next time. We both look forward to going back again soon.

We had a day out at the North Norfolk Railway and really enjoyed our Sunday Lunch on the train. What a amazing experience, the whole family enjoyed it!
