TGI Fridays Norwich

If you're looking for a fun, vibrant spot in Norwich to kick back with drinks, look no further than TGI Fridays™ in the Riverside Entertainment complex. This place is perfect for a laid-back hangout, whether you're grabbing a drink before hitting a movie or enjoying a casual night out.

The cocktail menu is where Fridays really shines. Sip on a bubblegum daiquiri, go bold with a mango henny lemonade, or stick with a classic strawberry daiquiri - there's something for every taste. And with 2-4-1 cocktails all day, every day, there's always a reason to raise a glass.

The New Inn, Horning

🍓 Upgrade your Afternoon Tea with Pimm’s this Summer ☀️

Situated in the charming town of Horning, nestled along the River Bure, The New Inn is a traditional boozer boasting rustic wooden interiors and a huge, sunny beer garden. There's always a welcoming atmosphere here, and you can enjoy everything from craft beers and wines to classic cocktails.

There's a delicious menu to take advantage of as well - think steak and venison pie, mushroom Wellington with tenderstem broccoli or freshly baked camembert.

Bar&Beyond Norwich

Spanning across two spacious floors, Bar&Beyond on Prince of Wales Road has got something for everyone. There are five different bars to take a seat at, covered in graffiti and cool neon lighting, with tables and VIP booths to choose from.

There's a cracking selection of cocktails on offer, and you can even nab two-for-one drinks all day Thursday to Saturday. 

The Bull, Hellesdon, Norwich

Located on the outskirts of Norwich, in Hellesdon, The Bull is a friendly boozer fronting traditional interiors. Cosy up by the fireplace or watch TNT sports on their HD screens, all while enjoying a pint of real ale or cocktail.

Feeling peckish? There are plenty of delicious eats on the cards too - we're talking lamb shank with buttery mashed potato, cheesy loaded nachos or steak and venison pie.
