Harden's survey result
Summary
“A north Norfolk staple” from brilliant chef Galton Blackiston of Morston Hall fame – with the choice of “great traditional fish ’n’ chips” (“the best we’ve ever eaten”) downstairs, or upstairs a “fabulous fish restaurant with a great range of freshly cooked local seafood” accompanied by “lovely views overlooking Cromer beach and out to sea”. “Deservedly very popular with families, you will need to book at high season”.
Summary
This “excellent fish venue with locally sourced produce” is owned by Galton Blackiston, chef-patron of Norfolk’s grand Morston Hall, and operates both as a seaside chippie for eat-in or takeaway and as a bookable restaurant upstairs, with views of the pier and fancier dishes such as king prawn Goan curry with roti and coconut rice. Sauces and ice creams are all produced in-house.
Summary
“Stunning fish ’n’ chips”, with a “great variety of fresh fish and gorgeously light batter”, make this “excellently located” chippie from Galston Blackiston of Morston Hall fame “well worth the queue” – although you can sidestep that issue by making a “reservation in the upstairs restaurant, with sea views from its commanding hill-top position”. “‘Normal for Norfolk’ does not apply here, it’s far better than that!”.
Summary
“Excellent” fish ’n’ chips downstairs and a wider range of seafood (and other) dishes along with “great views” upstairs, from Galton Blackiston of Norfolk’s famous Morston Hall. “Whenever we go to Norfolk we always make a point of going to No1 – it’s well worth the drive!”.
For 33 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).
