The Willows Cafe Bistro

Great little cafe which caters for breakfast and lunch with a good selection of food to choose from and a large range of drinks

Glad that this little place is now back open. Great place to drop in and have lunch! Plenty of space upstairs to eat too. Lovely food!

Gem of a place. Love the way they really attend to the detail. I love American style pancakes. They even put the crispy bacon in between the pancakes. Top marks! View menu

My husband and I came here for breakfast. All the staff were very attentive and our coffee and breakfast came within minutes from ordering and it was delicious. Great deal of choice for breakfast too. The Bistro was very clean and they had practices in place. We look forward to returning.

Overall a lovely atmosphere with very attentive and friendly staff. Went with a carrot cake and iced latte, felt quite sick afterwards, but enjoyable at the time. I have to say, your parking facilities are quite poor, as a relatively new driver and not very...confident, this was a mission in itself to park. Lovely cafe, but too much of a headache to park. Thank you for a pleasant brunch though.

Good location but limited parking. Staff were a little slow, there were quite a few of them there, and were often just standing around, and good have been a bit quicker with service of drinks etc. The Sunday brunch menu is quiet extensive but not...as big as the week day one. Good quality and tasty food, had a choose your own breakfast items and a beans on toast, shame for the price you own get one slice of bread most establishments would give you two slices with Beans. Would go again, when the full menu is on. View menu

We arrived at our booked time and it was fifty+ minutes before we got our food. We ordered straight away and received our drinks promptly. Due to the long wait we had to order more drinks. I sensed the waiter staff were trying their best...but were never given an apology for the slow service. We eventually had to ask after minutes as the grandchildren were starting to get restless. The food as always was very tasty but the portions are getting smaller. The sausages are smaller now and the portion of baked beans also. Whilst waiting i could notice many other customers looking around i suspect they also were frustrated by the slow service. Prices are fair and the business has done its best reg...

Seven of us went to the Willows Cafe Bistro, Norwich recently. You had a choice of either savoury or sweet afternoon tea, which was one of the reasons we decided to go there. The food was really delicious. Tea and coffee were provided in the...price, though requests for other drinks were extra. It was a lovely experience marred only by one member of staff. Her attitude was appalling. She obviously didn’t want to be there and everything we requested was met without a smile and a surly attitude. One of the party asked for extra drinks, tea came but she had gone before we could ask for coffee too. It did upset us and consequently we didn’t tip which affected the other staff who were polite and...

Firstly, I do sympathise with anyone in the service industry during COVID times. What an unbelievably disheartening period to go through. We often visit Willows, especially when the childrens room was open (hope it comes back soon We also ordered a fair few lockdown treats...from them and have been back since they re-opened. That being said, the recent price increases are quite shocking (even Brexit/Pandemic aside) breakfast is about more expensive now and when you start paying for a family of three, you do expect top service and food. The food is good (though has not improved with the pricing) still the occassional overdone sausage/egg, but mostly no complaints. The service though could be... View menu
