The Stockpot Norfolk

While visiting Norfolk, we ate breakfast here twice. Both times, my husband and I are the same thing, but the second time I had cinnamon(raisin) French toast and it was truly the best French toast that I have ever had. The waitress was so attentive to our needs and leaves a carafe of ice cold water on the table for easy access. The service was fast which was nice since we were on a schedule.

Service is phenomenal! Got the mimosa flight, maple iced coffee, and corned beef sweet potato hash! The hash is very good, but I wish the sweet potatoes had some more texture or crunch. Eggs were well poached, but a little under my tastes. Apricot jam was amazing with the toast. Mimosas were seasonal flavors and well balanced, but I do wish the rims were only on half of the glass because it could be a lot. But overall, very nice! Would go back!

Wednesday is “Ramen Night” at the stock pot. I’ve been two straight Wednesdays! The classic shoyu ramen is incredible. The flavors and textures of the food are perfect. After living in Japan for several years, I am very happy to have found an authentic delicious ramen shop! I do think they need some more help, though. For the limited seating that they have, the servers are frantically busy and aren’t able to be attentive.

We really enjoyed our first meal here, so much so that we came back the next day for breakfast again! The food and drinks are delicious and vegetarian/vegan friendly. The restaurant itself is adorable too. The biscuits are especially good here, hy the way! We had the egg scramble, Turkish breakfast, biscuits, and the potato and radish hash, and a slice of French toast between our two visits. We loved all of it! The only downside is the service. Everyone working there is super friendly and kind, but it took an incredibly long time to be waited on, or to request more coffee, etc. As long as you don't mind flagging someone down, you're sure to love it!
