Wiveton Bell, Wiveton, Norfolk Review

We were very impressed with the service and the meal. The one way system worked very well and the food we had was very good. My sirloin steak was very well seasoned but perhaps a bit chewy but the overall taste was good. The service was very friendly and made the whole experience very enjoyable, and in line with our previous meal which was also excellent.

So, overall, a very good experience and we recommend to anyone staying in Norfolk. Hope to be back soon.

Superb food in lovely settings. Even with covid they have a big marquee at the back which has been decorated very nicely inside and not just a tent with some tables and chairs. Staff were very friendly. Best meal out this year, yes there haven't been many but it was excellent.

Definitely will come again.

Love this place!!!
Classy, friendly and superb food.
Best pub in the area.

A nice country pub when in Norfolk

Probably a bit more expensive than you might imagine, but still pretty nice.

Truly exceptional. The staff were friendly and knowledgeable and made great suggestions from the menu. The venue was beautiful with stunning art work. Brilliant free bar snacks and the menu itself was exquisite. Very very very highly recommended. Definitely book of you want to eat as demand is high.

Great food: especially their steak and chips
Great desserts: I like their lemon tart
And FREE liquorice allsorts

Fantastic hospitality from Charlotte. All the food was exquisite and the environment was superb despite the corona restrictions. I recommend the lobster

Brilliant venue. Accommodation and food were excellent.

Good food, nice ambience. Perhaps slightly more expensive than your standard gastro pub but still reasonable value.

Fantastic food. Lovely garden are out the back. Friendly staff.

We visited when we were on holiday with our dog. I have the places which are dog friendly in a folder so we can always manage to find somewhere to eat. A fine dining place, which was very welcoming. Though a bit more expensive than we would normally pay we both enjoyed the food. My husband had the battered fish which he was very pleased with, I had chicken Caesar which was also delicious. Being a fine dining experience we were also happy to be able to sit where we wanted. We would certainly visit again if we are in the area.

Lovely to sit outside on the decked area. Nice coffee. Unfortunately it was fully booked inside for lunch. Will come back another time.

Lovely village pub just off the coastal road. Only stopped for drinks on our walk. Dogs welcome. Nice beer garden and decking out front.

Car park not quite where you thought it would be but well worth the walk. Good attention to detail and food excellent. Staff extremely helpful.

Really wonderful meal. Thoroughly deserves its Bib Gourmand and good value at this level of quality. Food, service and wine, all superb.

Good fish and chips,can get busy and wait times can be over 1 hour...for fish and chips, that's way too long.

And yes, we did wait an hour and we were served after the table of 4 next to us, who ordered ~10-15 minutes after us.

Perfect short break. Delicious food, quaffable beers nice wines and great staff, a pleasant stay all round.

A lovely modern rustic pub serving locally sourced food at reasonable prices.Friendly staff and the Brancaster mussels were delicious.The burgers were homemade and was succulent with morish chips.
We were a little muddy after a seal trip and had two dogs with us but are allowed to be seated at the bar tables.l recomnend to book the table online as the place was very busy lunchtime.Would come again.

Wasn't open at the stated time.Waited 15 minutes, then left

Great food, but let down by the service. It took a while for someone to take a drinks order, and it was 10-15 minutes before our drinks (a bottle of wine and two pints of beer) were brought to us. After waiting 15 minutes for someone to take our food order, we had to ask and it was still another 5 minutes before someone came to take the order. The food came relatively quickly, and it was delicious, but the service was incredibly slow throughout. The staff were very friendly, there were plenty of staff on hand, and as we were seated at 8:30pm, the restaurant was far from full, so it was a little odd that service suffered so much. When we arrived, the bar was completely covered with empty glasses - there must have been 50 or more, so it was impossible to order a drink at the bar. The food was delicious, and portion sizes were just right, plus the set menu was good value, but it just got a little frustrating with how long we were having to wait.

Stopped for lunch passing by and saw some good reviews. First impressions a bit business like almost brusque. But we ordered lunch, fish and chips for my partner Welsh rarebit for me. Nipped to the ladies but the floor was wet and a mop across the door. Toilet base was wobbly! Anyway the food was just ok and expensive. Certainly not proper Welsh rarebit either. Nice gardens but that's all.

Delicious food, friendly staff and dog friendly which was perfect for us. If you prefer to be away from dogs then they have a conservantry where they don't allow dogs. Will definately be back as the food was lovely!

Fair enough we didn't have a booking so no table on a Saturday night. But the way drinkers were corralled into a small area to fight over seating wasn't fun. Left after one pint.

Had a wonderful stay. Cosy rooms and helpful staff. Excellent location. We will be back again and would recommend.

45 minutes late being seating, lots of meals unavailable, the yorkshire puddings were dreadful and the soft drinks went off. Appreciate the staff tried hard to do their best it difficult circumstances but it wasn't a great experience.

Had a lovely Sunday lunch with family. Great menu, huge portions, fab food and super Gin menu too!

Fantastic venue and food was superb. Staff very friendly and atmosphere very welcoming. Lovely place. Will definitely visit again.

Fantastic pub food, well worth a stop if in the area, not the cheapest pub meal you ll ever have but one of the best, the food certainly lives up to the price tag!
The ribs I could have eaten with a spoon they were so tender.

Very nice, went for Sunday lunch. Waitresses were quick to take our orders, very friendly. Drinks arrived within 10 minutes and the food didn't take longer than 20. Food was tasty and very filling!

Just returned from a 3pm sunday lunch at, The Wiverton Bell a regular venue for us which has never failed to please in the past. We ordered roast pork for me which was 50% fat and a woefully inadequate portion on muscles for my wife. The More

Good fish and chips, good choice of seafood on the menu, but enough variety. Staff were friendly, device was quick and all. Tables were well spaced out. good meal - would visit again!

Excellent service excellent food and friendly staff

Absolutely superb. Great food. Lovely staff. Gluten free choices. Highly recommended!

Excellent food, well presented and staff were friendly and helpful.

Lovely food and good service. The additional seating area is very comfortable and well decked out.

A great place to stop at if you are looking to do a lot of walking and seeing. Great food and hospitality we enjoyed our two night stay here.

Went for lunch on new years eve. Really enjoyed the food. Service was excellent. Would definitely return next time we are in the area. Highly recommended.

One of the best restaurants for miles around in my opinion. We ate in the luxury marquee at the back. Food was excellent. Wine was excellent. Staff were excellent. COVID safety measures appeared excellent too (which was extremely important to us as had been shielding) Really looking forward to going back when we can.

A stunning village pub, you couldn't ask more from north Norfolk

Delicious Sunday lunch in the marquee attached to the pub. The best roast lunch for ages..with all the trimmings. Efficient fast service. Highly recommended.

Stopped here out of the blue for a drink. Very friendly staff and were knowledgeable about the drinks they offered. My dad asked whats the "hoppiest" beer they had and was very happy with their suggestion.

Very nice location and great if you want to be nosey at the cars going past. Probably a nice place to go for a walk as well.

Parking is in the village car park opposite the pub itself.

Great English pub! Food and drink was all very good, with a good selection on drink and food menus. Garden area out back was all done to a good standard with plenty of space.

Very specific criticism. Perfectly nice pub, although hugely gentrified since my last customer ( it's had the sludge green paint treatment like so many others!)I only wanted a large glass of coke and a quick stop on a bike ride. I could More

Excellent food and service. Will definitely go there again.

Lovely place. Nice food and friendly service. Would benefit from a baby changing facility.

Friendly staff and excellent food. Quick service even when reasonably busy and a lovely atmosphere that is both pub like and restaurant like. Smart-Casual dresswear. I personally recommend the steak burger.

Always great food, decent service and nice surroundings. Relaxing.

Excellent pub food, always crowded, so make sure that you have reserved a table. Nice wine list, reasonably priced. A little bit off the main roads but easy to find and you will find parking space just in front.

Utterly delicious food to extremely high standard at a very reasonable price. Great with kids with very generous portions for the kids. Highly recommended!!

Great place, great food, great staff, car park a short walk away.

Excellent food, good service
Wonderful place to end up for lunch after a long coastal walk with the dog.

Prices are 10-20% more than in average pubs but the quality 3x BETTER!!! Food totally worth the price in size and the service quick! If you 30min far from that place, no time think, Go have a lovely time!!

Tried to book a table for our wedding anniversary whilst on holiday in the area. Was put on hold on the phone left hanging on for 10 minutes then the phone went dead. We went elsewhere.

This is one of the best pubs in the area. Good for food and a dedicated bar area. Wood fire and a warm welcome.

Fantastic food, super service and lovely surroundings. A must visit.

Sat outside for drinks. Very pleasant on a sunny afternoon...

Nice place they were a bit understaffed so unfortunately we couldn't get food although the food coming out looked fabulous and lots of it

A very popular pub which was buzzing with guests eating dinner from early evening. It is a characterful traditional pub with attentive staff. My husband ordered the skate which was unfillited and he couldnt eat. The friendly manager asked him to choose something else from the menu instead. I can recommend the burger but not the coleslaw it comes with!

An average restaurant with rooms; not a hotel at all.
