Fantastic food, well cooked and presented well, good value for money at this Gastro pub.
Favorite Dish: The Cheese and Bacon Burgers are good, Chips are awesome, Baners and mash are a good choice too. For dessert, try the brownie or the cheesecake.
Several types of Gin to choice from and some good real ales too from Woodfords and Humpty Dumpty.

Re opened In the middle of July 2010 having been closed for a while This pub is set in a delightful setting and is very popular,with a menu to suit all.
Set right on the water front complete with moorings,nearby is a swimming pool complete with showers for those who don't have them on their boat.a small store nearby for those essentials.
We have spent hours here in the past,driving there by car and having Sunday lunch.
I am glad to see it open again revamped looks really nice.
Favorite Dish: Sunday carvery and Breakfast are my favorites here.
Starting with breakfast ,you can have a choice of what sort of breakfast you want,
cereals or fried.
Sunday Lunch normally consists of Beef,or turkey,lamb with veg fried and boiled potatoes complete with gravy, yum yum.
Basic, but Excellent very good value for money. The selection was simple but everything was very fresh and well cooked.

The location of this Pub couldn't be better,with its own Beer garden and moorings is the perfect place to visit during the day,either moor up and watch the world go by or drive to the pub by road and sit in the garden and watch the boats.
They serve good food here at reasonable prices
usual price for a meal £6:25.
Its also located next to the Reedham Railway Swing Bridge,which is a working railway .
it will open for larger boats to pass.
call up on channel VHF14 marine band to speak to the bridge.
Word of warning : Dont moor up here at night if you can help it.
see warnings.
Favorite Dish: Chicken or beef curry, its not over hot and not too spicy and you get a large plate full,cooked to perfection.
They also do the usual Sunday Roasts, steaks etc.

This is a takeaway fish and chip bar providing excellent, freshly cooked food. As well as fish there is the usual sausages, pies, fizzy drinks etc but I recommend you have straight fish and chips - you can't beat it!
Friendly service, food cooked to order. Great.
Check opening times (big sign in window!) as they vary, especially out of season.
Favorite Dish: Plaice and chips, delicious.

The King's Head is very welcoming with a warren of rooms and a courtyard so there is plenty of choice for seating. We ate in the conservatory on our last visit and were pleased that the overhead fans were on as it was a warm day.
The bar serves a good range of beers - the local Woodford's "Wherry" is delightful - and has a long and interesting menu.
We received excellent service, particularly as one of our party had a food allergy - nothing was too much trouble to accommodate our needs.
I highly recommend the King's Head in Holt (it's in the main High Street, at the church end).
Favorite Dish: It's difficult to choose a favourite!
The menu includes a good range of the usual pub fare - roast dinner, fish and chips, lasagne etc but also a great selection of more innovative dishes. There are local specialities too which included crab and also samphire (glasswort, delicious) when I last ate there. I wish I'd had room to try the tropical bread and butter pudding.

Their informative website says it all really! But from my personal experience I can highly reccommend eating here. Friendly, clean & 'different'. They also have accommodation, but I didn't use this.
A great garden for the summer time, with a well maintained childrens area with climbing frame, swings etc. If you have to take them, a great idea is to eat in the garden and work your way through the food & drinks menu while the kids happily keep themselves amused - hic!!
Favorite Dish: We had a meal from the barbecue - the accompanying salads were excellent - I particularly enjoyed the couscous with orange, chickpeas & tarragon! All the food is fresh & imaginatively prepared & presented. The potato wedges were a gastronomical delight!! None of your small, mass produced efforts either!
Make sure you leave room for a dessert - an excellent choice awaits - (the full menu is on the website!)

When visiting such a typically British seaside town, there is only one meal that is suitable for the occasion – Fish ‘n Chips – with mushy peas of course!! This restaurant did not disappoint!
Eat in or take-away. NOT cheap mind you, but exactly what we’d hoped to find!
Favorite Dish: Although mainly a fish restaurant, there is also a varied selection that one would expect to see on the menu such as sausages, burgers and even pizza.

I only had a drink here & didn't get the chance to try the food this time. The menu looked inviting with dishes that were fairly unusual & refreshingly off the norm for pub food. There seems to be a lot going on at this pub - take a look at the website!
As it was a sunny afternoon we sat in the garden - a suntrap paved area sheltered from the sea breeze with plenty of comfortable seating, though it was a bit difficult to get seats as it was so busy, obviously a very popular place! The weather helped of course, as did the fact there was a 'beer festival' complete with a marquis serving around 24 different beers & the pub food!
The atmosphere was friendly & relaxing & children seemed welcome too (baby changing facilities in the toilets is always a good sign of this!) Staff were helpful & friendly.
Apart from the loos, I didn't see much of the inside of this place - it seemed quite vast!
I would definitely come here again & hopefully to eat next time. Their excellent website shows the menu in full & loads more info too!

This restaurant in a pub with rooms "the food is what we're all about" is in the middle of the Norfolk countryside, quite difficult to find but well worth the effort as the food is excellent. The ambience is a little "Basil Fawlty" at times but that's part of the charm. Very relaxed, well supported by locals and off the usual tourist routes. It is advisable to book, always for Sunday lunch (ribs of beef plus other choices), usually in the evening, lunchtimes you might just risk turning up. Lunch is from 12.30 p.m. dinner from 7.15 p.m. The food is not the cheapest around but they do offer a special two course lunch for £8.
Favorite Dish: The menu at the Saracen's Head is always different - reflecting the use of local and seasonal produce. The creme brulee is the best I've had in UK, about 8.5/10 which is pretty good!
