“ Very pleasant olde worlde cafe. The ambiance is very quaint with wooden tables, old fashioned decor etc but it works really well in the location. Only came for coffee and a humongous slice of millionaire flapjack both of which were delicious. They also do reasonably priced breakfasts, fish and chips, burgers, Sunday roasts, afternoon tea. They have a dog friendly garden room attached as well. Well worth a visit especially if you have been visiting Lathams next door and fancy something different to their cafe. ”
“ Five stars does not seem adequate in this instance. Our party thoroughly enjoyed our afternoon tea at BridgeStones but it is the staff who truly made the experience special. Nothing – and I do mean nothing – was too much trouble for them and the chef bent over backwards to come up with creative solutions to dietary restrictions of a member of our group. If you are in the area you will kick yourselves if you don’t stop in at least once. ”
“ Outstanding place, so friendly and welcoming, nice decor and the food is excellent. Bonus is the vast range of delicious cakes that are baked on site. I can't recommend it enough. ”
“ Me and my friend reserved a table, which was ready when we arrived. We were seated straight away and offered tea or coffee. We chose Decaf tea, which arrived very quickly in a teapot for 2. The tea filled 4 cups, then we were given another teapot after, from another staff member. All staff were friendly and helpful. We had reserved a table for afternoon tea (see pictures for food and look). The food was exceptional. The amount of food given and the quality - can't fault any of it. (When booking they ask what type of sandwich you would like and if there are any dietary requirements). The cafe was nicely decorated and clean. The seats were comfortable and there was a lot of natural light. The price was reasonable and would go back. There is a free large car park across the road to park in (not sure if you have to go into Lathams whilst there, but we did anyway). There is also a nice walk to do nearby and cute ducks outside. The cafe also sells duck-food for 75p per bag, so you can also feed all the ducks (which we also did). The place is easy to find and has an easily accessible entry and easy to get around when inside. 10/10 ”
“ This was the first time we’d eaten here but will most definitely not be the last. I had the roast turkey, my husband had roast chicken. It was delicious! There’s plenty to choose from on the menu. The staff are all friendly, smiling and welcoming and the venue is lovely and clean. First class. ”
“ Lots of choices for gluten free and dairy free including cake which is unusual in most places. Fresh cooked food and large portion size, all delicious. Cake to take home is a winner. Staff are so friendly and helpful. Definitely worth a visit. ”
“ Fantastic Lunchtime Visit to BridgeStones of Potter Heigham Stopped in at BridgeStones of Potter Heigham for a lunchtime treat and was thoroughly impressed. I had the Oreo chocolate milkshake and the roast turkey with stuffing baguette, which came with perfectly cooked roast potatoes and a delicious homemade gravy for dipping – absolutely spot on! Despite it being half term, the restaurant was clean, tidy, and had a welcoming atmosphere. The staff were fantastic – helpful, friendly, and genuinely made the visit even more enjoyable. The menu is packed with hearty, home-cooked meals that all looked incredibly tempting. I would highly recommend BridgeStones to anyone in the area. It’s a must-visit if you’re nearby! ”
