"Visited in a small party of 5 for a birthday. Meals do not appear to be freshly prepared, Roast meats are of particularly poor quality (pre-sliced FROZEN processed reformed meats) which were obviously heated via the MICROWAVE judging by how scolding hot it was served. You would get a better standard of food in Wetherspoons at half the price. When a member of my party sent the food back as being inedible, the staff were defensive and argumentative rather than apologetic. It is a great shame as we have visited this independent pub restaurant for lunch on a few occasions, and whilst not amazing it’s always been acceptable, however, it’s difficult to continue to support such a venture when the quality of food and service they provide has become so shocking. Overall, we were left feeling very disappointed"

It's unfortunate that my first experience of The Railway was for a funeral, but this wee pub was great. Excellent location, nice beer, warm and with a friendly welcome from the staff. Will make a point to come back next time I'm in Norfolk! View menu

Food was hot, well presented, flavoursome. Served by a young lady called Tory, who could not do enough for my sister and I, she was friendly, helpful, and professional. I used this pub a while ago, so pleased that the standard of food was as good.

Frozen meats and vegetables ..and argumentative rude staff after returning a meal which smelt foul and was inedible …I know it’s not a good day to have a birthday but I live just up the road and have visited on a few occasions. The standard of food has dropped considerably I wanted a nice evening with my 2 grown up children and grandchildren. A RUINED Birthday! Very disappointed!!!!!!! View menu

We often come here as a group. The staff are always happy to accommodate our party even though they are often full at lunchtimes. The food is typical pub fare and good prices. We find the food to be tasty and plentiful. At the moment they have a special offer on of a 2 course meal for £12.95 which is brilliant in these tough financial times. We have never had a bad meal here (we have been 3 times in the last month in groups of 14, 8 and 7) and are pleased to have it in the town. Great value, good food.

Good food (when it finally arrived! but service was atrocious. Firstly we were told that one menu choice wasn't available, then a few minutes later that it was available! The service was extremely slow we had to wait well over an hour for our meals. In fact several other people arrived after we had ordered, ate their meals and left before we were even served. When we asked what had happened to our meals we were told that it was because we were a larger party (5 adults and 2 kids ! It was supposed to be a birthday celebration but was memorable for all the wrong reasons! We will not be eating there again.

"Where do I even begin? The service from the woman behind the bar was shocking. When I inquired about dairy-free options for my son, I was told that nothing could be modified and that they don't cater to allergies at all! I pointed out the menu's claim that they could accommodate such needs, but my concerns were met with an eye roll. I then tried to order him some chips, but was told they were fried in the same oil as dairy and meat products, and since we are vegetarian, that wouldn't work. I asked about the vegan dishes, only to learn that they are also prepared alongside meat products, so there's no guarantee they would actually be vegan. At this point, my daughters had already become excited about eating out and the play area, so I reluctantly decided to go along with it and ordered three sandwiches on granary bread and a child's fish and chips. My son had a packet of crisps. When the sandwiches arrived, they were absolutely terrible. The cheese and onion sandwich consisted of two slices of cheap store-bought bread, some pre-grated cheese, and a few onion slices—without even a hint of butter! It certainly wasn’t inexpensive; we paid £45 for four soft drinks, three sandwiches, and a child's meal. As for the play area, it was concerning—there were sharp screws poking through the wood chips, loose sharp fixtures on top of the slide, and a large exposed electric cable under the swings! We decided to leave swiftly; it was such a disappointing way to end our holiday, when it should have been a lovely final meal before heading home. I was appalled by their attitude towards me—I felt like an inconvenience. The food was awful, and I genuinely recommend avoiding this place if you are vegan or have allergies; even if a dish is labeled vegan, they certainly don’t take the necessary precautions to keep it separate from meat products. It’s truly unfortunate, as the location by the river is beautiful, and we were all so excited to be there, but we left feeling very disappointed. We definitely won't be returning."
