Harden's survey result
Summary
“The star dishes are all about locally sourced seafood, which is superbly presented” and goes “beyond run-of-the-mill choices” at this consistently well-regarded outfit – a “very good example of the quality of restaurants on the North Norfolk coast”. As one of its band of fans puts it, founder “Angela Long and her late husband Richard developed a loyal following” who, even to this day, “love the care and attention that’s given to each dish”.
Summary
“Superb locally sourced seafood” is the highlight of the menu at this family-run operation founded by Angela Long and her late husband Richard, which has a “carefully built and locally supported reputation over many years” – “value for money and a great attention to detail is a special combination” that “attracts both locals and the many visitors to the North Norfolk coast”.
Summary
A “great-value” menu featuring plenty of fresh fish, along with local meat and game, has attracted a loyal following for this “very friendly” family-run North Norfolk venue over more than 20 years. Co-chef/founder Angela Long has ensured that standards remain high since the loss of her husband, Richard, two years ago.
Summary
This family-run north Norfolk restaurant “does what it does very well”, and that’s mainly fresh fish, along with local game – a formula that has served it well for more than 20 years. Sadly, co-chef/proprietor Richard Long died last year. “He will be sadly missed, but the good news is that his wife and co-chef/proprietor, Angela, is carrying on with the business”.
For 34 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).
