East Anglia Restaurants

In summer the coast gets so packed with people that reservations are essential at restaurants. Getting something to eat at other than regular mealtime hours isn’t always possible in small towns; head to cafés if you want a midmorning or after-lunch snack. Look for area specialties, such as crab, lobster, duckling, Norfolk black turkey, hare, and partridge, on menus around the region. In Norwich there's no escaping the hot, bright-yellow Colman's mustard, which is perfect smeared gingerly on some sausage and mash.

  • 1. Pimento

    $

    Having made the arduous walk up the aptly named Steep Hill, you'll be pleased to find the excellent Pimento waiting for you. A highly regarded vegan and vegetarian restaurant, you can expect to find a mix of classic English tearoom fare, from filled jacket potatoes and scones with jam to salads and sandwiches (all vegetarian or vegan, of course).

  • 3. Waffle House

    $

    This is the perfect antidote to all those meat-heavy English breakfasts—waffles, waffles, and more waffles on an imaginative menu. Breakfast choices include toppings like bacon and bananas, while later in the day you can order them with anything from hummus and avocado to free-range sausage. Or, skip to dessert and order yours topped with chocolate and honeycomb mousse, or "banoffee" sauce (a heavenly mix of banana and toffee)—sugar rush heaven.
