Excellent food, and the set menu was great value. Between the four of us we tried quite a lot of it. The restaurant was quiet when we went on a hot Saturday lunchtime, and the service was just right - attentive and friendly without being intrusive. I am looking forward to going back and trying the a la carte menu one evening soon.

About the restaurant
A Georgian gem in the heart of Norwich, The Assembly House is where chandeliers meet cheese scones and old-fashioned hospitality is served with a flourish. Think jaw-dropping interiors, irresistible menus and the perfect setting for any celebration. We’re open seven days a week for breakfast, lunch and indulgent treats. Most famously, we’re home to themed Afternoon Teas that change regularly – whimsical, wonderful, and served daily from 12pm to 3.30pm. We also offer savoury versions like Afternoon Sea and Afternoon Cheese, each as joyful as the sweet selection. Dietary adaptations (vegan, dairy-free, gluten-free and vegetarian) are available with 48 hours' notice. Please note: themed cakes cannot be adapted for guests with nut allergies, please pre-order our allergen tea or choose from the lunch menu. If you have a gift voucher, please book as normal using your bank card and remember to bring your gift card on the day.

About the restaurant
Looking for a real Indian dining experience ? Bored of greasy & heavy Indian food ? Do you even know what real Indian food actually tastes like ?
We invite you to join us at our authentic Indian, family-run restaurant & sample some of the finest Indian food Norfolk has to offer. Namaste Village is a traditional yet progressive Indian restaurant, serving vegetarian & vegan food from different regions of India, which is both healthy & delicious. The dishes on our menu are unique and developed from our own recipes. That is why they taste different and unique. Come, see for yourself & experience the spirit and spice of India.
The fact of being a vegetarian restaurant should not be disappointing you. More than 70 % of our customers are not vegetarian and still this is rated as the number one Indian Restaurant in Norfolk on Tripadvisor and also featured in The Times as the 8th best curry house.

Lovely restaurant with nice atmosphere. Quite a wait to be served but the staff did a great job considering there weren't many of them. Would recommend.
