King's Lynn, British, Modern Restaurant Guide

“Amazing that one chef can produce such high-quality and varied food” say fans of Kevin & Jackie Margeolles’s former coaching inn on the north Norfolk coast where “glorious cooking from Kevin is superbly served by his wife”, either from the three-course à la carte for £80 per person or the more extensive tasting menu for £105 per person. “A lovely place to stay and enjoy great food in a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere” – it has a very dedicated fan club amongst our reporters, a couple of whom report their best meal of the year here.

Lewis King and wife Aga have a real hit on their hands with this “wonderful restaurant”. Aga takes care of the “great” welcome and wines, while Lewis is behind the “amazing cooking from a one-man kitchen”, which is strong on sourcing, and comes via short or long set menus (Wednesday and Thursday) or the longer menu only on Friday and Saturday. Fans just “wish we lived nearer”.
