Norfolk Restaurant Guide

Fishes Restaurant

Fishes is located in what must surely be the delicatessen of Norfolk. Burnham Market is a paradise for foodies and an enterprising wine merchant has also joined in the homage to good living. Fishes caters for those who, for one reason or another, don't make it home with the goodies and are seeking a good excuse upon which to visit their omissions.

Gin Trap Inn, The

I first came upon the17th century Gin Trap Inn when walking the 53 mile Peddar's Way one glorious spring. We were on our last leg, though perhaps that should read 'legs' for we had but one mile to cover before reaching the end, at Holme.

Greenhouse, The

Hare Arms Country Pub & Restaurant, The

Another qualifier in my real country inn contest, The Hare Arms has a long and colourful history, not least its association with Emma Sayles, legendary landlady from 1878 to 1934, who at the Jubilee celebrations fed and watered 1,380 happy revellers in two marquees with "substantial dinners of beef, mutton, plum pudding, etc", well washed down with tea brewed in the boiler of a handy steam roller.
