"Booked a greenhouse for my husband birthday and the set menu with ribs of beef. Totally amazing food and the greenhouse is a lovely touch. Everything about the Sunday lunch was perfect. Smoked salmon starter delicious, ribs of beef was succulent and perfectly cooked medium rare it just melted in your mouth. Lots of veg we had carrots and asparagus, and also some gorgeous roast potatoes topped off with a jug of peppercorn sauce. The beef you carve yourself at the table. There was so much meat! We ended up taking a doggy box home! Just managed pudding my lemon posset was really nice.The greenhouses there are 3 of them, are all decorated differently. They have fairy lights, umbrellas, a heater and we were given a fan and a blue tooth speaker to use. Service was excellent. Our waiter was really friendly and helpful.One of the best Sunday lunches ever! Can’t recommend this enough."

We have just returned from an awesome meal including our own Rib of Beef in our very own private greenhouse. Great service brilliant food and brilliant beer.. . Just a wonderful way to spend time with friends . We even had our own speaker to play our favourite music as we relaxed. What a great asset to both Norfolk and the Broads

Popped in to The Lion at Thurne today for a drink and ended up staying for lunch. It was really busy and we were told that the food could take up to 45 minutes which we were happy to wait. It didn’t take that long and even though it wasn’t on the menu, I had a lovely freshly prepared salad. Very friendly staff and great service. We shall definitely visit again and definitely be eating there again!! Voir le carte

Dropped in for lunch on a Monday, friendly staff quickly accomodated us and dog welcomed (offered water bowl and biscuits). We chose the pizzas which were big and very tasty, lots of topping and nice interesting ingredients ..posh pizza. Service was good and all staff were lovely and chatty and happy demeanour. Its a rustic gastro pub vibe, lots of outdoor seating and also greenhouses looked like cosy spaces for food with friends. Will definitely return next time we 're on hols. If there was one improvement I could suggest it woukd be to have some 'home-made ' puds desserts.

We have been coming to Norfolk for our dog holidays for a number of years and never visited The Lion at Thurne. We sat outside and the COVID measures were very good. Extensive range of ciders and beers. Excellent friendly and efficient service, nothing too much trouble! Definitely the best southern fried chicken burger and chilli jam ever had! Good Lion burger too. Friendly and dog friendly. Only criticism would be that quite a wait for food, but could be to do with first day of restrictions lifted so people can eat inside so maybe busier. Would definitely recommend and will come back for sure!! Voir le carte

This was a trip down memory land after last being here some time in the early 90’s. I heard good things about the pub and so we decided to visit unplanned when down this way.This was the first week of inside dining on the roadmap and the pub was really well organised, with staff making it feel relaxed, yet safe. We had a couple of burgers, the Lion Burger and the Chicken burger. Both were excellent, but the coating on the chicken burger was really really tasty. Tables were well spaced, clean and the restaurant was airy. This was a lovely meal out and trip back to the area. Good luck with your summer team.

Two of us spent a week sailing on the Broads and this is a pub that we stumbled on next to the river and what a find. I believe that it has only recently been refurbished and it has been tasefully done out. The staff were pleasant, helpful and efficient.My friend had scampi and I opted for their Lion burger. We had to wait a little while for the food to arrive which is a good thing in my book because it does tend to indicate that everything is being freshly cooked. Now, I am not particularly a fan of beefburgers so when I say one is good, it will be and I have to say that mine was excellent. My friend, who often chooses scampi, said that the scampi there was particularly good. I am not famil...

"We booked the rest restaurant for 5:30pm to have dinner (2 adults and 2 young children). When we arrived, the waitress took our name and booking details and asked us to wait until the table was ready. We waited, waited, and waited for the waitress to return 15minutes on, and making conversation with other guests who looked frustrated at also waiting around, we were taken to our table at the back. Our kids were starving, so we immediately placed the order for starters, mains AND drinks together. The drinks were taking a long time to arrive, so my wife gave the kids water from their beaker water bottle. Our drinks arrived after 20mins from ordering, and asking for them twice. The restaurant was quite busy, but we could see that there were lots of other guests trying to catch the attention of the staff members, and could hear arguments on the other end of the restaurant. After an hour, our starters had still not arrived, so my wife asked how long it would be. The waitress said she would go check and come back. After 15minutes, I asked another waitress to give us an update. The waitress came back and said that our starters were being cooked and would be out in 10minutes we sighed relief, and told our kids that food was coming. We realised that food was clearly taking a long time to cook, so said to the waitress to bring our starters and mains together, rather than waiting around we had plans onwards, and it had been over an hour already since placing the order. After another 20minutes, we asked the waitress where our starters were, as she had said it was 10minutes away. This time, a very rude (manager) came to our table and said that our starters were at the back of the queue, as we had asked for the starters to be brought with the mains! This was absolutely pathetic, and we mentioned that our kids were starving, as it had been 90minutes since placing our order. The manager said that this is normal and offered us complimentary prawn crackers (but charged us for the dips, which we later realised). After another 45minutes and seeing other guests arguing about the same issue, we saw comfort that we weren 't the only ones in this mess. Our kids were starving so ate the prawn crackers in a hurry. When the food arrived, it was bedtime for the kids, so we asked for the bill and takeaway boxes. The bill arrived with a 10% service charge and additional cost for the complimentary prawn crackers. I asked the waitress to deduct the 10% service charge and queried the complimentary prawn crackers, and if there was anything they could do by way of discount for the lengthy delay. The rude manager came out and started shouting at us, saying that he doesn 't like families with young children in his fancy restaurant, and he cannot offer a discount as we would be leaving a negative review. I couldn 't believe he was saying this almost bullying us into leaving a positive review! Our kids were crying, so I said to give me the card machine for me to pay using AMEX. The manager said that they don 't accept AMEX, but I highlighted that he 's got a AMEX sign outside the door. Infact, he was using a AMEX wallet in which the receipt came. He was very offensive and said that it 's his business and he can do what he wants photos of the AMEX sign outside uploaded. I would avoid visiting this restaurant and I would suggest Trading Standards look into how this man operates a business very rudely."
