Me and two colleagues took a local's recommendation on excellent restaurants in the area and took a taxi out to the Recruiting Sergeant. Standard beers on offer, but the dinner menu was a very wide variety of local foods and interesting mains. If the waitress hadn't come, we'd probably still be trying to decide on meals. In the end, a cajun-marinated ribeye steak with ceasar salad, the seafood tapas (as a main) and baked fish of some sort. Check the pictures. It's a good thing we were warned to avoid starters unless we were really hungry, because there was a lot of food on these plates and we ate ALL of it. My steak was cooked perfectly and the nice tapas platter looked heavenly while my friend with the fish nearly liked the plate clean. We chose to skip desserts and finished off our beers. Which is not to say that the desserts didn't look tempting, we just didn't have room. Fabulous service, really good food, a decent price. What more can you ask for? We'll be back! Notes. No wi-fi.

Ever the open minded traveller (and food lover) when I found out that I would be visiting the Wildebeest Arms a local popular gastropub run by a top local chef, I was excited! My excitement extended to elation when I learned that instead of Sunday brunch, Britts tend to enjoy something called Sunday Lunch, which is served in the early afternoon and most typically involves you consuming the traditional meal of roast beef with Yorkshire pudding - OMG! So take it from this Canadian, back home - in Toronto, there are a lot of places that offer a Roast Beef dinner, specifically Irish/English pubs, and you know what - they do alright by the tradition, but, more often than not, you're getting something overcooked and just missing a soul. I've never had authentic British cuisine before, and say what you want about it... but it's hearty, it's seasonal, it's delicious and just feels good! The Roast dinner/lunch special was about 20GBP if memory serves so in CAD $ that's about $35. Everything was incredibly tasty and cooked perfectly, however, some members of our party noted that sections of their beef was a touch over cooked. On the other hand, my order was perfection, my only complaint - and maybe it's the glutton in me, but the serving I received was much smaller than that of others at the table. I was a tad disappointed about this since it was the part of the meal I enjoyed the most. The size of my meat (pause for a laugh) aside, the entire meal including the YSP (Yorkshire puds), the potatoes and root veggies were all on point and cooked masterfully! I was feeling peckish still at the conclusion of my meal and somehow got talked into ordering another UK seasonal favourite for dessert - Sticky Toffee Pudding. OMG x2, this cake is basically like a piece of dessert concrete and if I had about 25% room left before, I was properly 45% over capacity following my consumption if it. But so worth every sinful bite, especially the to die for caramel sauce the whole dish sat in.. nom nom nom nom. I can't say I'll be back in Norwich in the near future again, but if you're traveling out this way and happen upon the Wildebeest Arms on a Sunday, add it to your travel plans Eatcrest Out

Early reviews suggest it was once a B&B, something I haven't noticed in my few visits there as I've only come to have a bite or drink. The interior is thoughtfully decorated with bookshelves and atmosphere is welcoming enough to sit solo or bring friends, but spacious enough to hear your own conversations and flag down a server. The seating is spacious and numerous both inside and out: barstools, tables, booths, and a considerably sized beer garden out back. The bar offers your standard ales (£3 on Tuesdays), ciders, and cocktails. Upon first glance the dining menu looks limited, but there are a couple good selections. I've tried the Parmesan Chips and dips, desserts, and their burger with cheese, slaw and British bacon. The burger was surprisingly good--though most places offer some form or another, to be quite frank I've found a decent burger hard to come by in this area. Not your quintessential pub (I'd say some menu items fall on the gastropub side of the spectrum), but a good starting point for food and drinks if you're in the Golden Triangle.
