A real village local. Good choice of real ale. Superb food. Always a warm welcome from the staff. Just what a country pub should be.

Met some friends here as this was a half way point , couldn't fault the food or staff or decor , would definitely recommend ππ
During our short visit to Norfolk we'd been trying to find somewhere 'special' for dinner. We were not disappointed. The pub itself is delightful with a beautiful restaurant at the back. The young man behind the bar was extremely welcoming. We found out later that the owners were his grandparents. We ordered whitebait and stilton pate for starters, both of us following with brisket of beef. Be warned! The portions are huge! Everything was presented beautifully and was equally delicious. The chef even comes out to check if you're enjoying your meal - very rare these days. We finished with a dessert to share as we couldn't manage one each. Again, it was perfection. The lady who served us was also very pleasant and professional. We assume they may have been the owners. It was a fab occasion and so nice to see food and service 'being done right!'. In the trying times ahead, we wish them every success, as we will definitely return if we visit Norfolk again. Superb! βΊοΈβΊοΈ
Lovely, clean country pub. The food was very well priced, the staff couldn't have been better. Didn't have to wait long for all our meals, which were all served simultaneously despite variety of orders, from beef brisket to sizzling platters. Would thoroughly recommend a visit
We've recently moved to the area and Windmill Inn was the first restaurant we visited. I am absolutely amazed at how thoughtful staff were - I'm a very fussy eater and asked for an off-menu option for the starter and an alternative milk for a hot chocolate - what they brought out was more than expected by far. The attention to detail and consideration of my needs was amazing.
The lasagne is delicious, the goat cheese tart to die for and portions were great. There was one member of the team we asked for recommendations for brunch spots and his suggestions gave us our new favourite brunch spot - brilliant experience from start to finish and we will definitely be back!
Superb.
Booked based on reviews. Wasn't disappointed.
Staff very attentive and polite.
Not rushed at all.
Quality and presentation of food was excellent - Sunday lunch - beef, chicken and vegetarian.
If we're in the area again, we'll definitely book again.
Had a lovely meal. Portion size was sensible and service was excellent. Small downside perhaps is we had a little bit of waiting time but that I'm sure is because it's popular. Would like to go again to try out some other choices on the menu.
First visit. Three of us for lunch. Friendly, helpful staff. Good selection on the lunch menu. Three different meals ordered. Food was great. Well cooked and presented.
Reasonably priced. Good selection of beers on tap.

Took my folks for a lovely lunch with my partner. Food was wonderful and the service was fantastic. Even the owner/chef came round to see how things were. Definitely recommend a visit.
We had a great meal here with friends the other day. It is a good local pub, with an excellent restaurant. There is a good sized car park and the premises are fully wheelchair accessible. Staff were friendly and welcoming, and the menu extensive, with an additional specials board. I chose the home made burger and fries which was superb, and almost too much to eat. Prices are mid-range for pub food, and represent good value in my opinion. We will certainly be back.
Really lovely food. Not an extensive menu, but that's absolutely fine when you know that your food is going to be expertly prepared and cooked. Definitely not over-priced either. A family-run business with lots of care and attention to every diner. Will definitely be eating here again! We had a wonderful time.
Wonderful place we all went to celebrate my mums birthday. Great helpful staff, food was lovely and very responsible. They adapted my food gluten free with out any fuss, everyone's food came out at once. We would definitely go again!!
Thank you so much for a lovely experience xxx
Wow!!! Last minute booking but they got us in. Beautiful restaurant and 3 amazing courses. Great menu so much to choose from. Highly recommended. Canβt wait to come back
A really nice gastro pub. Meal was great, much nicer than a regular bar meal. A real asset to the area. Surprisingly good value as well. Staff great. Nice gins too
Great atmosphere in this family pub. Always fantastic food for a fair price. You don't usually need to book although for occasions like valentines etc you will! Perfect service from staff and the free bread with your starter is a nice touch not often seen.
The bar area is kept separate from the restaurant area, alongside a pool table in an adjoining room.
Enjoyed a lovely meal there with the wife, and shocked and pleased at the chef asking if everything was to our liking, it most certainly was. Will definitely eat there again.
Amazing place, brilliant food, and the staff were happy and accommodating,
would recommend to all my friends.
Fantastic food, wonderful atmosphere, superb staff, who really bought in to our August Christmas party and gave us a superb night to remember. Will definitely be going back.
Always nice food and friendly waiting staff. Seats are uncomfortable in restaurant and you can ask for an extra cushion which is not something you see at many places. Not cheap but always busy so book in advance. Chef generally comes to the table and asks if you are enjoying your meal so a genuine interest in the customers.
