Picnic Fayre - HOLT

This shop has it all, from an outstanding selection of cheese to homemade cakes and pastries, all bursting with delicious flavors just waiting to be sampled. If the incredible products weren't enough, the staff's warmth, attention, and helpful advice truly elevate the experience.

This restaurant offers an amazing variety of nearly everything, with a standout selection of pickles and homemade cakes. The staff are lovely, and the service is excellent.

Additionally, we picked up a lovely jar of local Cley jam to take home as a gift. The deli is renowned for its cakes, which I suspect are even better than the savory offerings. They offer an extensive variety of local cheeses, including Norfolk Dapple and Cornish Yarg. And let's not forget the impressive wine selection at the back, along with a range of local jams and chutneys. Overall, it's a lovely spot, popular with locals and staffed by friendly people. If you’re in the area, it’s definitely worth a visit!

Beautiful deli and from license- superb cake and cake, and decent coffee. something incompatible for such a small place, perhaps, and not exactly a replacement for, they say, a saving they cannot buy here a time and a twix, but then the gays are world class. I also recommend the sweet chili cashews.

Picnic Fayre is a large deli in the small coastal village of Cley next the Sea. It is situated on the crossroads, not far from the art gallery and windmill, and takes its customer base from a lot of the North Norfolk coastal holiday cottages. The deli has a fine selection of cheese, particularly English cheeses including Lincolnshire Poacher, Cornish Yarg, Wensleydale, Stilton and Y Fenni. Antipasti include olives, sardines, pesto, seafood salad and sundried tomatoes and peppers. Cley Forge is the shop's own range of pickles, chutneys, mustards, sauces and jams. Breads include ciabatta and foccaccia, along with the shop's speciality: lavender foccaccia tastes better than it sounds. Outside the shop, you will find baskets of local fruit and vegetables, and you can also pick up ice cream in the summer. The shop can get a bit crowded, but the staff are friendly, and there are certainly plenty of options for picnics on the beach. I'd recommend picking up some crab sandwiches from one of the many seafood shacks and adding the olives and other bits from the deli.
