Best Seasonal Restaurants in Melton Constable

Yet again another living meal at byfords. This particular meal was to celebrate our 8yr olds birthday. Staff were great as was the food and overall meal. It’s why we come back to Byfords’s time and time again.

27 December is a busy time for all good pubs and restaurants. The Bucks Arms was no exception. Though obviously under considerable pressure, the staff worked quickly and efficiently to take orders and bring food. The menu is extensive and varied, with separate sections for meat, fish, vegetarian, a children's menu and small plates and starters. We never reached the desserts as our first two courses were very large and very filling. Excellent cooking. Helpfully, the menu was on the website. The location is, of course, sublime and the pub itself unassuming and slightly old-fashioned, a wonderful, traditional, place. if you're visiting Blickling and want a meal or a drink at the bar, don't miss the Bucks Arms.

The setting was lovely, a cosy table for two plus our Irish Setter on the floor, who was made very welcome. The restaurant has plenty of seating but is set out in a way that creates individual space. The food was delicious and we felt really cared for by staff, especially when my husband explained his dietary needs. The portions were just right, the meat was so tender and the sticky toffee pudding with toffee sauce and clotted cream just melted in our mouths. We hope to visit again soon.

Went on a date night and it's just a Beautiful place to eat chat and just enjoy each other's company it's a lovely atmosphere and the food is scrumptious.

We all had a fabulous lunch on Saturday. The staff and food were excellent. Our table in the bar was so cosy next to the fire and the children were able to play the board games, which got them off their phones for quite a while! Thanks to all the staff for being so lovely and friendly. The food really was first class and the whole restaurant felt like a Christmas film, perfect!
