4th – 8th & 11th – 15th November 2024
There are so many reasons we look forward to Autumn in Norfolk, the golden hues that paint the landscape and the famous candy floss pink sunsets but high on the list is Norfolk Restaurant Week. Norfolk is renowned for its foodie scene, its rich agricultural heritage, its proximity to the North Sea and abundance of delicious producers and suppliers. November gives you the opportunity, or perhaps excuse to dine out every day with over 60 restaurants from across Norfolk participating. Choose from a two or three course menu with options from only £18pp. We’ve picked a few of our favourite hangouts, or you can check out the full list here.

Grab a cosy corner in the bar or head into the restaurant for the breathtaking panoramic views out to sea. As you’d expect their Restaurant Week menus are packed with fresh, local ingredients, we’re talking Brancaster Mussels, Staithe Smokehouse Salmon and Norfolk forged wild mushroom tart.
