"Me and my family decided to have a meal at the bank house as we saw on Instagram they had a Prix Fixe Menu and we are currently on holiday in Kings Lynn. We had a lovely meal at the bank house last year and when we saw the menu of 2 course for £16 and 3 courses for £20 advertised, we thought this was such a good deal! However, we arrived at the Bank House and when seated we’re only given the normal menu. I then asked the waitress if we could have the Prix Fixe Menu. The waitress then said we don’t do that and a lot of people have been asking about that. I then said to the waitress that it was posted on their instagram six days ago and then reposted two days ago. The waitress then said oh I don’t think it’s on today and I then mentioned how it said that it’s from Monday to Friday from 12pm to 6pm. The waitress then said she will go and ask the manger. They then came back and said that it shouldn’t have been posted yet due to issues with the chef and said they we won’t be offended if we leave. We decided to look at the menu but then left to eat somewhere else after feeling disappointed. I do feel that they should remove the posts advertising for the Prix Fixe Menu (on Instagram and I presume on Facebook too) as it could encourage people to book but then to found out it doesn’t actually exist and may be too embarrassed to leave. Also this is a bit unfair on people who may be on a budget who are looking for a nice meal as a family treat. Hopefully they can sort this issue out as it would’ve been lovely to try this menu, but it should be taken down as it is still posted on instagram."

After many great visits in the past probably no more. Got our order wrong, over charged, and food was thrown together it felt like they really don't care. Such a shame as a great place sadly let down by some staff.

We stayed at the hotel and had dinner during our stay. The staff were fantastic and accomodating, the palce was very clean and Covid restrictions followed. The food in the restaurant was really good (we had breakfasts and a dinner). The fish was the best fish I've had in a long time! Will definitely come back.

Having a total fear about eating inside a restaurant in this pandemic, this restaurant has a quite large outside area for diners. As always when having visited this restaurant, one feels treated as valued customer, not a cash cow. At no time, has any preparation been presented prematurely, i.e. undercooked. Thoroughly recommended.

Discovered this gem today for coffee. How we have not seen it before on our trips to Kings Lynn I don’t know! Friendly staff, great coffee The property is beautifully and tastefully decorated maintaining several original features. Sadly we couldn’t stay for food today but are already planning a proper visit in the summer to stay and eat, Thankyou View menu

Took my friend today for lunch and it blew us away, we both had Scallops in pea puree and apple and we literaly nearly ate the bowls ! It was out of this world, for mains I had chicken supreme with roast poatatoes and spinach and my friend had the belly pork, both were generous and lovely presented and the tastes wer amazing. Every member of staff was extremely polite and had time to talk and explain things more than happy !!

5 friends stayed here for 3 nights. We had a great time and were well looked after by Andrew, Kieran, Abbi and the rest of the team. All very welcoming and excellent food. The building is full of history 9excellent notes in the guest info packs in the room) with the bar in what was the cash office of what became Barclays Bank. lovely location on the square and river bank. Ask for a room with a view. highly recommend a trip to Kings Lynne fascinating mix of medieval and georgian buildings and the surrounding area. perfect for a short getaway.

Went here for Sunday lunch whilst on holiday in Hunstanton. Had a lovely meal although service could have been a bit better, being totally ignored by the dizzy waitress, we did actually enjoy our lunch, went back the following day and had another great lunch, this time service was much better. We will be back. Just like to add that I have had many a brilliant dessert on my frequent restaurant travels but the Pineapple one I had on Sunday (only 2 options, bit bad) was the WORST I have ever tasted and for £6.50 was disgraceful, not even fresh pineapple. Did mention to the supervisor and he was going it to mention to the chef. View menu

Restaurant Review: Nice food, awful service. Ordered beef dish which was tasty but got what I felt was a child size portion. Definitely overpriced given portion size. Service I would consider poor with waiters leaning across you to serve others at the table when there was plenty of space to walk around. Soft drinks overfilled, making it difficult to even pick it up without spilling some. Our waiter obviously didn't know about different types of coffee, and 2 teas and 2 coffees took over 20 minutes to arrive. Latte tasted like it came from a machine (I could go to mcdonalds for that! rather than prepared by a barista. They did remove cost of drinks from bill due to delay. The seating area lac...

Booked celebration afternoon tea for wedding anniversary. Was nice but Unfortunately wasn’t the best we have had. On arrival taken to table area to be then told our table wasn’t set up so we returned to bar area to wait. Within two minutes then told our table was ready. Sat next to what looked like an unsightly dusty machine with cobwebs in alcove, the rest of area was clean.Our waitress brought our Prosecco to the table, we were expecting one glass each, but the bottle was left with us in an ice bucket, initially thought that was a nice gesture as it was our anniversary I informed them at the time of booking). However was very short lived as this was removed quickly by another staff member...

"We had pre-booked a table for 6 people to have lunch at 2:15pm. We arrived on time and were shown to the table, which had only been set for 4 people which meant we had to pull a further 2 chairs up to the table, and had to request a wine list. We ordered a round of drinks for the table which took c. 15 minutes to arrive. We were waiting a considerable amount of time for a food menu. Eventually we called a waiter over to order some food and were told that the kitchen we no longer serving, despite having booked a table for lunch and not being warned of the kitchen closing time. The staff told us to be quick in ordering however took a further 10 minutes to come and take the order. The food eventually came and the waitress didn 't even put the food at the correct place, she merely put them on the table for us to distribute accordingly. When the bill eventually came, we politely requested the *optional service charge was removed from the bill as we did not feel that we had received adequate service to warrant a tip, to which the manager began shouting that it as shocking that we wanted to rightfully remove the tip. He went on to say that the kitchen staff had stayed over time to prepare our food. My question to the owner is this... if your chefs are unwilling to work over their hours, why are you offering a reservation close to closing time whilst your staff are incapable of processing the orders to the kitchens in the correct timescale and working hours. If we were told that the kitchen were closing soon, we would have cooperated with the staff to help them work to their time scales."
