The Wildebeest

I've visited here twice now, and each time the food has been absolutely fantastic. On our most recent trip, we decided to try the 7-course taster menu, and it was an absolute delight. Each dish was a well-curated exploration of flavor, presented with the precision and creativity one would expect. From the first bite to the last, the experience left us eager for our next visit. Can't wait!

Fantastic location for truly wonderful food and exceptional service. The food is perfect and obviously of the highest quality. Service was quick, attentive and welcoming. Beautiful dining room with every little detail thought of. Loved the gluggle jugs for water! Everything from the fresh bread rolls to the thinnest pastry on desert was just perfect!

This is a super restaurant with fantastic food. We enjoyed a family dinner here and honestly can’t praise it enough. When you order, you’re able to choose from various menus on your table (some of which are very good value). The service speed for food and drinks was perfect for the occasion and the staff were really friendly. I had the Roots menu, which was honestly amazing and such great value. The filet of beef was just exquisite! Others on my table also really enjoyed the venison starter, the chicken liver parfait and the banoffee soufflé. We will absolutely be returning to this restaurant and would recommend to all. I think the meal I had could have been star worthy - it was definitely on par, if not better than, other starred restaurants in the area.

What a wonderful place! I first saw the restaurant come up on Instagram and thought it all looked so lovely so we decided to book and wow it was amazing food was super delicious and all of the staff were supper happy to help and very polite 😁I don't think I have ever eaten a meal that was so beautifully plated that tasted so amazing. Definitely a very special place❤️

Really excellent food. We had the menu-du-jour which was amazing value. Very tempted by the other dishes so we will be back.

After reading reviews, I had high expectations, but unfortunately reality fell short. The restaurant car park was very busy on a Sunday afternoon, so much so, some cars had to park on the path (be aware you may not be able to park in the restaurant car park). The venue is beautiful, the restaurant is classy but not over fussy, you feel immediately comfortable. We were sat at the table and ordered the set menu at £32 per person for 2 courses, we decided to have the mackerel, road beef roast dinner and the salted caramel sponge. The mackerel was beautifully presented but there were 9 bones, aware this isnt easy to de-bone but this is possible if you take your time. I mentioned it to the server and she said she would tell the chef. The roast beef was the star of the show, super soft, cooked perfectly but that was overshadowed but the amount of salt on everything, the veg in the pot was un creative and the larger pieces of cauliflower were undercooked. The salted caramel after the heavily salted main course was a big miss, I didn’t enjoy it, perhaps with a different main it would have been enjoyable. Was really hoping this was going to be brilliant, on our first visit it simply wasn’t.

We spontaneously popped in to the Wildebeest for a drink on our way back from Norwich. It is all very well maintained with a nice seating area outside to enjoy the weather. The choice of beer was poor but the good service and nice environment made up for it. We will probably be back again.

We had an excellent lunchtime taster menu with the accompanying wine flight. The food was cooked to perfection, the duck main was absolutely delicious. Service was fantastic too, really friendly and able to answer any questions about the menu. A little explanation of each wine pairing would have been nice, i.e. where it came from and why it was chosen to match the dish. It certainly didn't ruin our experience, but it would definitely have been a nice touch. Definitely recommend this place though!
