Dining Out


Whatever you fancy, for whatever the occasion, you will have plenty of options in Norfolk. Here at Old Hall we can help with recommendations, reservations, including the best places for local produce.

The Dabbling Duck, the Allium are all less than 30 minutes drive away. For something a little more special, try the Old Bank Bistro at Snettisham, for the best in locally sourced, seasonal food or Socius in Burham Market, they are both our favorite places to eat in Norfolk.

Please note that if you are wishing to enjoy a drink with your dinner, we have a private driver to take you and pick you up (based on availability).

For Breakfast & Brunch We Recommend


If you are going to the coast why not have breakfast or brunch at the Old Store in Snettisham. This is our favourite place for breakfast! Amazing food, local produce, super dog friendly and fantastic service.  

Old Store is closed on Mondays.

Brothers in Arms is only 6 min away and is a lovely option for cooked breakfast with delicious food and farm fresh ingredients, amazing bacon and sausages as they have their own butchers too. It is also a good option for lunch or dinner.
