Kingfisher Tea Room
Selection of local ice creams and home made pastries and slices - with some items on our menu suitable for vegetarians, diabetics and coeliacs. Family friendly. Hot and light lunches and teas. We are separate from the gardens - there is no charge to come to the plant sales, shop or cafe.
Our award-winning tea room was opened in July 2008, and specialises in catering for vegetarians, coeliacs and diabetics. We cook to order and wherever possible we use fresh local produce, including Ronaldo's ice cream, Broadland ham and a selection of home-grown fruit and vegetables.
If you don't have time for a walk, or the weather isn't too nice, you are always welcome to call in for a cup of fair-trade tea and a slice of homemade cake.
50 covers inside, a further 80 outside.
