Wine Vaults - Waveney

Tonight was definitely one of the best meals I have ever eaten. I ordered the beef brisket I have never seen such a large slab of meat cooked to absolute perfection in my life! My son had one if the hugest burgers he has ever seen, and although he's a big eater, the burger beat him!! The desserts were gorgeous and beautifully presented too. The staff are absolutely lovely and very attentive. We will definitely be returning soon!

I went to this restaurant with some friends on August 30th. My wife and I ordered the tiger prawns as a starter. We were surprised to find only three medium-sized prawns on a plate with a small amount of rocket, and no bread. The price worked out to nearly £3 per prawn, which seemed expensive compared to what I usually pay for prawns. For our mains, two of us ordered the chicken pie. It was essentially a bowl of chicken casserole with a separate pie crust on top, along with a red wine sauce - a strange combination. I was looking forward to the cheese board for dessert, but was put off by the high price of £12. In France, cheese is a common dessert option on menus, and I have only seen it offered as a normal dessert option at the Fox and Goose, where they provide four local cheeses. The ambiance and service at the restaurant were great, but unfortunately the food did not meet our expectations. Despite having enjoyed dining at the Wine Vaults in the past, this particular experience was disappointing.

Had a fabulous meal. We sat upstairs and then had an acoustic musician playing downstairs who was excellent. The food was excellent and the staff very friendly and efficient. Next time I visit the area I would definitely return.

The girl behind the bar was very rude. As soon as we arrived she asked what name the table was booked under and repeated it back incorrectly. She then asked what we would like to drink. My partner asked for a becks, which was served in a bierra moretti glass. I asked for a house white wine was told they didn’t have a house white. She then reeled off eight names of wine, all white. I said I’d have a Sauvignon to which she said ‘New Zealand or French?’ She then served me a New Zealand white in a red wine glass! I was also under the impression they do Sunday roast as shown on their website from 12 midday with no end time was very disappointed when there was no roast on the menu. The waitress we ordered food from was very nice and polite. My partner asked for Cromer crab after ordering it thought about how he was going to de shell it. He immediately asked a different waitress if they could de shell it for him thinking if they couldn’t he would order something else. She didn’t come back with an answer so he had to ask again!! I have no complaints about the food. The food was very nice. The chef also did a good job of serving the crab as requested. When we finished our food we went downstairs to pay the bill the rude waitress slammed some glasses on the bar right in front of us. We just paid the bill and went.

Amazing find in my daughters new home town ! Dog friendly and staff were so chatty and welcoming such a lovely environment and the food was amazing as were the cocktails ! We had 3 platters to share and couldn’t eat it all 100% recommend , if I lived here it would be my go to place either on my own or with family and friends
