The Pigs

We stayed in the Wallow. Absolutely first class - a real treat. We booked it such a long time ago but it was all we wanted and more. Loved every minute. We checked in just after 2pm because they allow this for that room, so we had a full afternoon. Sun was shining, sat outside the front of the pub and had several drinks!!!! Then we went and enjoyed all the room facilities. Staff are so kind, helpful and accommodating. Best gift ever. Expensive, but worth it!!!!

Absolutely the best chill out.casual drink or two on the sat afternoon, then evening meal . Then a lovely sauna,steam room and toasted marshmallows on your own patio. Breakfast is to die for , had the bbq breakfast,  my god ,that was the best EVER 👌.  want another one 😋

I booked this for my husbands 50th Birthday and we wasn’t disappointed. 

I paid extra for the room to be decorated with balloons and to have cake for him.  The room was lovely and clean, the spa is a beautiful addition to have something special. We loved the spa, sauna, drench shower and fire pit. 

The hotel supplied marshmallows for the fire pit, free shortbread, extra milk if needed and more wood in the corridor. 

We booked to eat in the hotel and wasn’t disappointed. 

Nothing was too much trouble for the staff, we enjoyed everything about it and would return in an instant. 

Thank you for a great stay!

Lovely time away. Didn’t quite understand the additional charge the app ads to order room service. It doesn’t go to the team as a tip it’s an app charge, this should be reviewed as in sty in the sky we didn’t have a phone to ring through to order but in the other room, we did. All in all, an absolutely lovely stay, excellent food, excellent staff, lovely massages. Top get away.

Quirky British Pub serving interesting choice of main meals and lighter tapas style dishes. Very tasty food, service is always excellent
Even better value with 10% reduction using Norfolk Passport
The choice of locally sourced food is also very good

Me and my girlfriend stayed the night for our anniversary and it was exceptional!
Upon arrival and throughout the entire stay the staff were super friendly and very helpful.
We stayed in the Spa Suite and it was amazing I upgraded for the ‘Romance package’ which includes real rose petals, a single red rose and two mini prosecco which my girlfriend loved. All the facilities in the room were easy to use especially with the information folder which tells you how to do it! The Bluetooth speakers are a thing we didn’t expect and enjoyed being in the room while we relaxed in the sauna listening to our playlist!
We had dinner and Breakfast while we stayed. Breakfast is included in the stay and was gorgeous. Dinner was extra but if you have a Norfolk Passport card you get a discount, also amazing! Plenty of Gluten Free options too!
We also had a massage after breakfast. I’d recommend doing it then as you’re too busy using the facilities in your room when you first get there. Both ladies were very friendly, especially Jemimah who most importantly gave a great massage.

If you think you may enjoy a sauna and a steam room in the privacy of your own room then book the Pigs, it's such a good idea and it's done extremely well at a good price.
The staff are all polite, friendly and helpful, the restaurant area is well done, the food is good and also priced well.
I could do without the dogs and it would have been great to play pool or the arcade machine but I didn't have coins etc, maybe they could be free to use?
We enjoyed reading the negative comments on the way home, they really show how unreasonable people can be and how difficult it must be to run a hotel/bar/restaurant when you can't actually vet the people who are coming to stay.
If you end up leaving a negative review about the Pigs you should really stay at home and shout at the TV and perhaps consider giving up your right to vote.

Faultless!

Fantastic food and service. The two Front of House staff provided a warm and welcoming service. Nothing was too much trouble. Excellent food with good quality local ingredients cooked to perfection. We will return shortly. Loved it! 

Amazing stay for my boyfriends birthday at the Pigs. Would absolutely recommend! We stayed in the spa suites and I can honestly say it’s one of the best/nicest rooms I’ve stayed in! The sauna and steam room are easy to use. The room is well equipped and they provide everything you need! The food in the restaurant was of a high standard and the staff couldn’t be nicer. Lovely lovely place!

Been meaning to go here for ages and was a convenient stop on the way to Holkham Hall. Plenty of parking space for a relatively quiet lunch time. All the staff were welcoming and the food and service were excellent. I had pork and my wife had mackerel and neither disappointed. We will definitely be back and perhaps stay over!

We visited The Pigs after a day out in North Norfolk, with a booking for 5pm. We had tried to book a little later but were unsuccessful — not surprising given it was still the school holidays, and there were lots of families around at teatime.
From the moment we arrived, the restaurant felt really welcoming. Drinks and food were excellent, and our waitress was fantastic — friendly, attentive, and on form. We both chose pie and steak, and while I hadn’t quite expected a piece of steak with the pie, it turned out to be absolutely delicious.
Desserts were also very good. I’d definitely recommend the Marathon, though I was tempted by the signature white chocolate and marmite pot. Maybe next time! A trio of desserts option on the menu would be a nice touch for those of us who want to try more than one.
We had added a note to say it was our anniversary, but this wasn’t mentioned at all — not that it was a problem, just something to note.
Although the table space was a little limited, we never felt rushed and were able to really enjoy the experience. Overall, a wonderful meal, and we will definitely book again.

Great Pie, Tasty Desserts, and a Relaxed Atmosphere”

Our wedding and birthday celebration

Amazing

Couples getaway

Whilst visiting North Norfolk on holiday we booked into The Pig having heard positive things. The menu looked tasty - it’s not just pork! And catered for all diets. 
We were welcomed on arrival and shown to our table in a beautifully decorated room with a lovely log burner 
Service was friendly but not very knowledgeable. Hubby and I enjoyed the wild mushroom and chicken wing starter and they arrived quickly. For mains we had the pork belly and the mushroom hotpot, as the servers knowledge of the menu was not great we ordered sides but they weren’t needed as the size of the mains without would have been fine. Consequently we didn’t have room for dessert. 
With a Norfolk Passport you save 10% on your bill.

Tasty food, service good, atmosphere lacking

Brilliant

A lovely stay at a unique destination

I’ve probably visited the pigs to stay 3 times and to eat easily 7. 

The concept is amazing, rooms are fantastic and all the details are brilliant. I won’t review this because I only went for lunch today. 

Food is phenomenal, honestly amazing. However we do feel that the service always lets them down slightly :( it just lacks lustre. You have to constantly ask for things as no one ever seems to offer or check. 

We were shown to our table and there was one menu on the table, when the waitress eventually came over after about 20 minutes for drinks I asked if this was todays menu, yes it was, could we please have a few more for our party of 5 and do they have a kids menu please. Waitress returns with one kids menu, between two kids, activities on the back of menu but no crayons. It’s fine, we’d bought our own colouring but I just think it’s not the point. 

Drinks ordered, they arrived and order taken. Starters arrived and so lovely. 

Kids food arrived, no sauces for kids, had to grab someone and ask for sauces as no offer (I wasn’t at the table when the food came or would have asked). 

Starts finished and we probably waited another 20 minutes for the plates to be taken away another 25 minutes for mains. Again, no offer of sauces and had to try and grab someone for mustard.

Finished and waited around 35 minutes for plates to be taken. When they were asked for another drink which never arrived and no ask for desserts. Went to the bar to get a drink. 

Kids got their desserts and asked for spoons for free pudding table and was told we needed to ask waitress first (very politely mind). Apologised and explained we wanted to go for the pudding table. 

Probably another 20 minutes after finishing and managed to grab someone for the bill. 

The staff are beyond lovely, they truly are (we did still tip over 10%)  and I write this review with nothing but a hope it’s taken in and the staff just become a bit more friendly and enthusiastic. I hate it when the staff are all over you and you feel rushed but a middle ground would be brilliant. 

As I said, amazing and couldn’t rate them more so I hope this just helps them slightly as reviews should.
