Norfolk Hotel

"House of Crabs is a hip Louisiana inspired seafood boil, that lives upstairs at The Norfolk. Mess is encouraged here, so perhaps skip this one if you're scouting for suitable first date venues. When it comes to the food, it's serious biz. Tables come lines in butchers paper and bibs and surgical gloves are provided on arrival. All non seafood menu options can be are best pushed aside, cos let's be honest you're here to demolish some serious amounts of crab, right? The crabs come served in 500g bags, and are drowned in a sauce of your choice- creole butter, Cajun (our pick), garlic pepper, Singapore and lemon pepper. We're not going to lie, it's a messy affair but that's half the fun. Photography- House Of Crabs website." - lowercase

"The Norfolk is the all-rounder every neighborhood needs. It's a good honest pub with plenty of personality and we're proud to call it our local. Yeah, it's a little rough around the edges, but that's half its charm. There's a good selection of beers on tap and American cans are also well represented. Food wise, the menu has a Mexican theme to it, but it still delivers on all your go-to pub grub. If you feel like a snack, try the the chilli fries and for something a little more substantial, you can't go wrong with any of the tacos or burgers. It's a little naughty, but their fried chicken burger is a definite stand out for us." - lowercase
