Our lovely open-plan restaurant has traditional oak-beams and contemporary furnishings with a harmonious and relaxing ambience. The perfect setting for you to enjoy a romantic dinner, family celebration or night out with friends.
Our Head Chef and his brigade are passionate about food. Every dish on the frequently changing menu is freshly prepared from the finest ingredients – locally sourced wherever possible.
Norfolk is rich in great produce and our kitchen’s philosophy is based on seasonality, provenance and flavour. Game, fish, meat and vegetables are chosen with care daily. We have a close relationship with the finest suppliers in the county and they know that we insist on buying the best. We don’t do run-of-the-mill at The Parson but we do believe in offering great food cooked with passion and flair.
Special dietary requirements are all happily catered for. Please advise when making your reservation.

Lovely attentive staff. Opted for the ‘curry night’ menu which tasted fab and such good value. Only gave 4 stars for the ambience due to the pub being quiet but it was a Monday night in January!

I love visiting The Parson Woodforde. The food is always excellent and has a great value set menu during the week. The new owners seem to be doing a roaring trade so long may it continue.
