I really can not praise this place highly enough. Every time we visit wether for lunch or dinner, we are presented with food cooked to perfection, and served to an equally high standard , no rush or turning of tables here, just an nice relaxed service from pre starter to coffee and petit fours. We feel genuinely lucky to have... More

The food and service were exceptional. One of the other tables were totally self absorbed thinking they were the only people there, the staff dealt with them well but it took up a lot of their time, although this in no way detracted from the service we received. More

Having eaten here two years ago during the Norwich moveable feast, and after countless friends telling us how good Roger's food is, I booked in for my other halfs suprise birthday meal. Her being a "foodie" it's always a risk doing this, but I wasn't let down. The service was first class, the atmosphere was great but not over bearing... More

I am going to start by the bad the service was a let down for food of this quality, if it wasn't for the chef I certainly wouldn't of tip the waitresses, they lacked attentiveness and are in need of training... But the food was just amazing and I would have the Beef salad again again again More

There is not a lot to critique on this restaurant! The food was excellent from the pre starter to the main meal to the dessert. We came here from London and arrived at lunch time for the lunch menue. 22 gbp for three meals plus bread olives and a pre starter... Excellent price for a excellent food. It is fine... More

We had a lovely evening here and the restaurant was humming on a Wednesday night. The ambience and service were very good. We decided to just order from the menu. The crab/avocado/cucumber amuse bouche to start were a great start. Our starters were the asparagus salad with quail eggs (eggs were cooked perfectly) and the foie gras and venison, which... More

On a busy Saturday night we had an exemplary dinner, with wonderful intensely flavoured food, perfectly cooked and served by unobtrusive but attentive waiters. In other words first class, if a little expensive at £250 for 4 ( including 2 bottles of wine at £85 and £55...so the message is there, drink water and it becomes outstanding value ). We... More

I was taken to Roger Hickman's Restaurant for my birthday by my brother. The restaurant is on two levels with about 40 covers. The food and service were excellent. If you are in Norwich you should give this restaurant a try ( beware you may have to book well in advance for a weekend evening). I would strongly recommend the... More

We went for a celebratory meal having always wanted to visit. We both opted for the tasting menu as we believe this is the best way to truly get a feel of a fine dining restaurant. The evening didn't start off too well after being seated and then sat waiting for nearly 10 minutes without menus and without any front... More
