The menu never changes, to be sure, but the Lifeboat has the finest of pub food: Scampi & chips,…read moresausages & chips, Ploughman's, it's all good. It's by far the best pub in Thornham, which might not seem like it's saying much considering the size of the town, but they've squeezed at least three of them into the area. Try the deals on the Pimms cups during the summer - one jug, four straws and you're as good as gold. As a 16th century pub, the ceilings are low, doorways are even lower and there are strange farming tools all over the walls. But enter the dining area and things are considerably spruced up. The menu is much more diverse than the pub's and every meal I've had there has been unfailing. Kids can play out back in the play area - much to the annoyance of the caravan owners directly behind it - and there's outdoor seating for when the sun decides to put his hat on. Never stayed in the rooms, though I know people who have and they've been quite pleased with them.

Lovely little pub set in a charming village, room was satisfactory, comfy bed, good sized bathroom…read more The price for a one night stay I felt was a little bit too steep in my opinion only because the amount I paid for the room made me expect everything about the room should be pristine. However, putting my pickiness aside it was worth paying just because of the location as I wanted to escape the hustle and bustle of city life, and this place ticks those boxes. Pub restaurant serves good food, although the service was a tad slow, but the meal was worth the wait in the end, as it was delish.

This is a small respite from the crazy city life of London. Took the train up here after a week in…read morethe city and it was definitely a welcoming downtime. It's a restaurant with rooms run by a couple who just happening to be a Michelin star establishment. Only a handful of rooms and tables exist and they seem to have a stable of regulars from around the area and a but farther that come to try the cuisine. I had two different meals while staying here, the simpler a la carte the firs night and then the full tasting menu the second. Both were spectacular. It's amazing it is run just by the two of them. They also have a condo they've added to the mix so It looks like I may have to come back with a group to enjoy a longer stay next time.

The Orange Tree is an intriguing hybrid -- part traditional pub serving Sunday roasts, part…read moregastropub offering dishes you may have to look up. The space rambles a bit, with a newer extension in the back, but if you can, try to sit in the original front rooms. They're much cozier, with low beams and a crackling fire. We decided to skip the roast and explore the rest of the menu. I had planned to order the Scotch egg, but the Norfolk White Lady choux caught my eye. Despite the server gently steering me toward the Scotch egg, I went with the unfamiliar option. She was right -- while the pastry was fine, the filling was a bit cloying, and I didn't finish it. But then came redemption: the fish and chips. All four of us actually gasped when the plates arrived. I've never seen a portion like it -- a perfectly battered, beautifully fried fillet stretching well beyond the plate, served with a side of salt-and-vinegar "scraps," which were new to me and absolutely addictive. The curry sauce was outstanding. And I didn't have to worry about finishing it; everyone at the table was more than happy to jump in.

We spent a long weekend in Norfolk and were looking for a local place to have a nice evening meal…read more Whilst out we found a leaflet for the King William iv so decided to visit. Thankfully I called to book ahead as we got the last reservation for the evening. Having now eaten here I can understand why as it's very popular and with good reason. The menu is fairly extensive and includes lots of local produce from seafood to meats and game. The selection was so great it took us same time to decide what we were going to have. Everything ordered came exactly as we had asked and the food was wonderful. I could say that my starter mushrooms in garlic butter was a bit too generous but for the price it was excellent value. There are a number of different seating areas in the King William IV. It's obviously grown to meet demand. We had a fantastic evening, the staff were very attentive (yet not overbearing in any way). The Manager made it his job to ensure everyone was happy with their food and the service which added a nice personal touch. If we visit this part of the UK in the future we will definitely have another meal the the King William IV
