The Garden House, Norwich

These days the friendliness of the Landlord and the ambience of the customers is much more important than some niggle about the quality of the music or the temperature at which the lager is served. James, the owner, has a phenomenal ability to remember what a casual customer (me) ordered two weeks ago, and the place still seems like the sort of establishment you hoped to find open in the back streets of Norwich after a hard day slacking in an office or factory (remember when Norwich had offices and factories.....and we had somewhere to work?). And my fussy mate reckons that the food is excellent.
