"I’m not usually one to write reviews, but the experience we had at Midsummer house compelled me to write something. What an incredible restaurant. I’m honestly baffled at how anyone could write a negative review about this place. I’m sitting here tonight feeling jealous of...the people who are there right now savouring the absolute delights of the tasting menu we had yesterday. My partner and I have been lucky enough to enjoy quite a few Michelin star restaurants, with Le Manoir/Sat Baines being firm faves. Midsummer house however, blows them all out the water. The food was quite simply out of this world amazing. The wine! Oh my word, the wine! What a pairing. I’m going to be spending a small fortune trying to source the beautiful wines we drank with our menu (thanks Molly). And at last, a restaurant where the desserts are equally as outstanding as the savoury courses. The Lychee and the coconut were unforgettable. Then there was the cheese course, rather than a cheese trolley (we were very sceptical) but WOW, incredible. I’m sad that I’ll probably never eat something that great ever again. To top it all off the service was absolutely spot on. Molly and Harry were so friendly and down to earth, they chatted to us all evening and really made the whole experience extra special. Thank you so much Midsummer House for a wonderful birthday. We’ll definitely be back!"

finishing the course set menu with snacks and petit fours, accompanied by the wein pairings was fantastic. every cure was presented beautifully, required a high level of skill and technology to produce and beyond was delicious. the service was exceptionally smooth and...professional the wine pairing was a perfect companion to eat. all in all a food experience that will live in memory for a long time.

My wife and I visited this restaurant and we were both blown away at the level of service and fantastic experience we had. The team were very helpful, friendly and knowledgable. The food was outstanding and beautifully presented. You can tell a lot of thought...has been given to creating the menus and each dish was like a work of art. Thank you to the team for a wonderful time and I would recommend this restaurant to anyone.

my man brought me here for the birthday. the whole evening was amazing. we had the tasting menu with paired crying. the food was from this world. the weeping were extraordinary. the service was error-free. the love for detail was amazing, even until the birthday card, and the carrot cakes we were presented as we were gone. it's a birthday present I'll remember for years. thanks to all those who made our night so unforgettable.

it was okay, the experience felt a little flat. nothing was personalized, eating was introduced in a script like a kind and wise. After I was in a handful of restaurants with a Michelin star, I expected to choose more and specifically this place, as it is the closest. norwich with two stars. beautiful place, glass crawl at the arrival is a great note. canapés looked better than they tasted. the bark shell and the selection of the four were the melt in the mouth highlights. will be back.

My wife and I had the privilege of eating the tasting menu at the Midsummer House restaurant as a birthday treat. It was an extraordinary experience from the wonderful greeting on arrival to the very end. I can honestly say that we have never tasted...food of such quality and variety, with every one of the courses being utterly memorable. My wife and I tried to decide which was our favourite course but found it impossible to choose. Of course, it is one thing to have quality food in such impressive surroundings, but the service from Molly and her team was magnificent. Many apologies for the superlatives but this treat totally warrants them. Is it expensive? Yes it is, but for THAT really spe...

I don’t believe I have ever had such a lacklustre meal such as what Midsummer House served up. Bearing in mind they are Michelin and regarded as best in the region, I was surprised not to be offered a menu (our whole table food menu and wine menu, just like a bistro). The course meal was uniformly tired and dull (and wow so much cream). Eg the dessert was ice-cream scoops in a chocolate cup (so bistro, again). The staff seemed bored and impersonal maybe just stressed and busy. When my daughter politely asked, “Do you change your menus regularly?” the lady enthusiastically proclaimed “Oh yes! It will be pork and lamb next.” [What…? Finally, the meal lasted hours from start to finish, which is...

Second time here, and wow have things changed. The range of dishes on the tasting menu is superb and the cooking is faultless. The ingredients are all of exceptional high quality, although it does tend to be a little repetitive (too much liver (for my...wife) too much caviar (if there can be such a thing again according to my wife). But everything was about flavour and ingredients. I personally would appreciate more challenging and more impactful ingredients. If we had one minor criticism of the food it would be the unadventurous main of beef fillet. Yes it a beautiful piece of beef, fantastically cooked.....but i would like to see more adventure, more challenge in the main dish it was nice,...
