My trusty 'go to' coffee shop... No.33 oh how I love thee...
I've been visiting & shouting about this coffee shop for a several of years now - I love this place as much as I love coffee & cake (and that's a whole lotta love!).
I'm always in two minds about recommending this joint - because it's is bijou and always busy (because its sooo good!) sometimes making it hard to get a table right away (the ONLY minor negative I have to say for No.33 - but its usually only a short wait) so I kinda wanna keep it a secret... but I guess the secret's already out, so what the heck???
There's always a fantastic selection of cakes to greet you when you arrive (like we need any encouragement to eat cake right?) they do a great little deal - coffee and a cake for £3.50 (total bargain!) and the menu takes you from breakfasts to brunches to light meals; including hot salads, panini's with a selection of fillings, bacon rolls, scrambled egg & smoked salmon egg on toast (a favourite of mine) eggs benedict, posh mushrooms on toast and much more.
You can tell I go here often right? I know the menu!!
And we haven't even gotten onto the coffee yet... well it is a coffee shop, so it would be remiss of me NOT to mention it! In Norwich we have; Starbucks (at least 3 when I last counted), Nero's (two I think), Pret a Manger (1) and many little independent's... I've tried most of - this is my all time No.1 (with should be called "No.1" not "No.33" ;)
If you don't have time to stop - grab a take away coffee it's the cheapest (real coffee) I have found in Norwich - only £1.00!! Keeping us caffeine addicts going through the credit crunch - absolute lifesavers!!
I should say, they do also do a selection of rather posh looking tea's (the fresh sort that's brewed in a tea pot, not in a tea bag!) I recently had a rare variation from my 'regular' and opted for a 'Green Tea' (I like to mix things up once in a while) and it was pretty tasty & came in a quirky little tea pot - which incidentally p you can also buy direct from No.33 - yay! :D
My love for this place, the food, the coffee and the wonderful & always genuinely smiley & polite staff is forever...
**please note**
I do not & have not EVER worked for no.33 and I am not in ANY way affiliated with No.33 or any of it's employees (other than being a regular customer) and I have not received any kind of payment or reimbursement for this review - it is absolutely and totally 100% genuine adoration!! read more
