The Fat Cat, Norwich

I go to this pub at least once a month, what a fantastic place.
It's all been said, nothing to add to other posters comments, enjoy......

The Parson Woodforde, Weston Longville

I've been here a few times, but probably won't bother again, they don't know how to train the staff!
The food is very good, if a bit overpriced, but the shoddy staff ruin the whole experiance.
On our last visit we were left waiting for our table for an hour, they had forgotten about us. Once we got to the table I had to call the waiter over to order a bottle of wine, we had been sitting there 15 minutes being ignored. We had our order taken but they came out with the main course not the starter and we still didn't have the wine. I eventually had to go to the bar to get the wine. Then they brought out the wrong deserts, all in all a very bad night. Then to top it off they got the bill completely wrong, didn't have a clue what we had eaten.
If you do go there to eat I hope it goes better for you......

Plough and Sail, Snape

My partner had eaten here a couple of years ago and raved about the food so we thought we would treat ourselves to a evening meal.
What a mistake!
We were seated straight away, we hadn't booked but there was only a handful of people in so it wasn't a problem (I did wonder why there was so few people in at 7.30pm on a Satureday evening). I fancied the beer battered cod and chips, it came with salad and peas, is it just me or is that an odd combination? It was dissapointing, the batter was soggy, the salad was limp although the chips were loverly and crispy, just how I like them and the cod was tasty, it was just about OK although I thought expensive.
My partner had a main course off the specials board, smoked salmon fishcakes, salad and new potatoes. New these potatoes weren't! when cut in half they were grey inside, as though they had been cooked days ago and reheated for this night, the fish cakes had plenty of spinache in but a very sad lack of salmon and once again the salad was limp and tasteless, certainly not fresh.
I won't be going there again and would not reccomend this place to anyone.
