Dabbling Duck

I visited this restaurant and found it to be really nice with friendly staff. However, I left feeling hungry. Even though I normally find two courses to be sufficient, I felt that the portions from the Norfolk restaurant week menu were too small. The food was delicious, but there just wasn't enough of it. My fish dish came with only a few mushrooms and two small pieces of Jerusalem artichoke, lacking in substance. I'm unsure of what portion sizes are like on their regular menu. Additionally, there was no clear indication of allergy symbols on the menu and the waitress was unsure of their meanings. She did promise to find out and get back to me.

We have been wanting to visit this restaurant for a while, so we took advantage of Norfolk Restaurant Week to finally go. The atmosphere was fantastic, warm and cozy with a lively energy. Despite being very busy, the staff did their best to provide great service. The food was excellent, with a wide variety of options and great attention to detail. Kudos to the chefs! We will definitely return and highly recommend this restaurant to others. The location is also lovely.

We had prep booked for 6pm,on arrival there was no one at reception only a notice saying go to the bar, which was very crowded. Eventually we found a waitress who gave us a table. We were not offered anywhere quieter to sit. The food was good but totally spoilt by the noise. I would not go again.

Lovely place, nice setting but they have ZERO customer service and staff that don't care. You have to book a table but restaurant half empty. Moving guest whilst dining to seat a larger table Run out of specials Run by kids and a frosty manager that just gives you lip service.i complained she wasn't least bit interested Food is really good but the painful service means we won't return, shame as just moved to the area. Lets not mention lack of toilet checks

Booked in advance for a meal for three on a Friday evening. The pub was absolutely rammed. Noisy and lots of people standing around hoping for a table. So the pub must be doing something right unless it is the case it is one of the only pubs nearby. The staff were seriously working hard and I was unsure there were enough staff to cover tables. Considering we were told we had to vacate our dinner table after two ours, our starters didn't arrive for 30 minutes. It was unfortunate that there were was a loud (I mean loud) party of people standing at the bar near our table and they were quite simply shouting. Shouting so loudly, I heard everything including the expletives which wasn't ideal for my daughter. I wondered if the staff would ask them to move out of the bar area as clearly there are diners. I wish we had been placed in the dining room at the back which appeared to be quieter. The food was good. Portion sizes ample and they accommodated my request to have dairy-free chips and not in the beef dripping. Good value for money. It was just a shame that there doesn't appear to be enough staff. Long waits between courses and I had to beckon over a waitress to order drinks twice. All staff friendly and polite but just looked completely over-run with punters and diners at the same time. Pub is in a beautiful village and clearly very popular.
