Harden's survey result
Summary
“A fabulous seaside pub and restaurant serving local produce, including smoked goods from their own smokehouse” – this “high-quality” and much commented-on north Norfolk venue fits the bill at all times of the year, whether “enjoying the warmth of the open fires in December” or “dining on the open deck in the summer, looking out over the salt marshes”. Top Tip – “Brancaster mussels are excellent”.
Summary
“Stunning tidal-marsh views of the dunes and sea” from the dining room are just one of the attractions at this well-known coastal pub: “a beacon on the north Norfolk coast”, where, in summer, “there is also outdoor dining on the terrace”. Diners like its “lack of fuss and good quality cooking” too; and also its “really friendly style”. “A fabulous seafood platter, a good Sauvignon blanc and a picture perfect sunset!” – what else do you need?
Summary
Overlooking the Salthouse Marshes, this celebrated coastal pub occupies a “dreamy” and “magical” location, from which it offers a menu centred around “outstanding” local seafood; “nothing tops sitting on the deck, looking out over the water and eating incredibly fresh oysters”.
Summary
“Impeccably fresh and delicious fish, especially the oysters and mussels – and a great view to match” sums up the appeal of a coastal pub that’s “so different from most, with a real Norfolk twist”. “What could be better on a summer’s evening than supper here, sitting outside on the terrace?”.
For 33 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).
