Rocket House Cafe

Cromer, Jewel of the Norfolk coast. I have to say growing up in Sheringham and living only 5 minutes from the beach meant that a trip to Cromer beach was very rare. Mum wanted to take me to one of her little hot spots Rocket House Cafe and hot it is! Not sure when this place had a make over but it's fab! Huge windows with large comfy sofas to sit back and relax with a hot chocolate and a great balcony with amazing views of the beach and Pier for sunny day's such as today.

The menu is modern with tempting ciabatta's, wraps and jacket potatoes.  A daily special board offers delights such as Cromer crab salads and Norfolk ham, egg & chips. The staff are efficient and friendly and the food came quickly. I had a Cajun chicken and roasted pepper wrap served with salad and chips - really fresh and tasty.

 A stroll along the beach down to the pier was just enough to work up room for a whippy!

Surf lessons anyone?

Whelk Coppers Tea Rooms

I love this place. I've been coming since i can remember. It all started with the delicious home made soup, i used to pop in for my lunch when running between various jobs in the summer. The coffee fudge cake is still as amazing as it was 15 years ago and the shortbread still melts in your mouth. I always wanted to work here when i was younger too, i still feel like i want to jump in and help when ever i go for lunch, maybe it's because the staff always seem so busy.

The crab salad was delice, top marks for presentation. One of the best in town if not the best. Jacket potato was also perfect. The light lunches here are fresh, tasty, uncomplicated and there's something for everyone.

I would add a photo of the coffee fudge cake but i ate it too quickly!

Whelk Coppers Tea Rooms is open daily for morning coffee, light lunches and afternoon teas. They also have beautiful Bed & Breakfast rooms, although i think they are pretty booked up in the summer.
