"Walked to this cafe from Norwich railway station as had seen it advertised and thought I would stretch my legs. On entering it appears to be very modern clean and bright. The choice is not huge but enough to keep you coming back for more. My partner and myself both had the Ploughmans which when it arrived looked spectacular. Two types of cheese cheddar and a blue, two sausage rolls, ham, pickled onions gherkins, a bread roll, and apple slices. It was delicious and the sausage rolls incredible. The service was very good and very friendly. Would I return oh yes as its so good and reasonable prices for quality food."

Classy new establishment, light and airy but not very welcoming. Almost like a conveyor belt,quite robotic.

Had a breakfast pretty decent and price about average the bacon was very salty though. The down side, music was very loud so couldn’t have a conversation.

I used to go here a lot before the new owners took over. The coffee was hot and wet, but that was about it. Would be fine if you like your coffee very weak, which I do not. The cafe was so loud that I had to keep repeating my order. I couldn't stay in to eat/drink. The staff were not welcoming, which may be because of the noise/general work conditions. I won't be returning.

Visited for a late lunch. Lovely calm water setting. As cool we sat on comfy chairs inside looking out on to water. Busy with business staff but a few tables free. Polite quick service. Brilliant chocolate melt drinks. Coffee hot and tasty too. Sausage panini came 5 mins after we ordered. Great and lots of meat. Muffins pre sealed are good. Great relaxing atmosphere. Well done

The restaurant recently introduced their winter menu, and we were very pleased with our meal. The steak and onion pie was delicious and clearly homemade. The ham, egg, and chips were also tasty and satisfying. The food was served piping hot and made to order, and we have visited this restaurant many times for coffee while out walking. We will definitely be returning for more of their amazing food. Well done, Waterside! View menu

After being regular customers for months, we were disappointed to find out that the restaurant had changed its menu when we visited today. Unfortunately, the changes were not to our liking, as some of our favorite dishes like the delicious chili jacket potatoes and steak pie and chips were no longer available. The new options were bland and uninteresting. As a result, we decided to leave and will be dining at a different restaurant in the future.

I have visited this restaurant multiple times since it reopened. I am a fan of the food and find it to be a great spot for lunch. The portions are generous and the quality of the food is excellent. I particularly enjoy the ploughman's dish. It can get busy and loud during lunch hours, but the surrounding area offers nice walks if you want to make a day out of it. This cafe is a hidden gem, especially in the summer when you can enjoy sitting on the terrace.

"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."
