“Bringing the greasy spoon into the 21st century – Norman’s hits the spot of traditional British food with top-notch ingredients at bargain prices”. Chefs Elliot Kaye and Richard Hayes ditched jobs at Leroy and Lyle’s in 2020 to open this Tufnell Park café, complete with gingham curtains and a classic photo of Bobby Moore holding aloft the Jules Rimet trophy – it is one of the few places on earth where you can have ham, two eggs and chips washed down by a negroni or a skin-contact wine. “The queues around the corner says it all. Get there early to secure a table!”

For 32 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).
