Wroxham Road
Rackheath
Norfolk
The cafe is a few miles out of Norwich on Wroxham Road.
The place is quite small but there is a large outside seating area.
Order here, grab some cutlery and choose a table.
Everything on offer is displayed on blackboards.
There is a set breakfast or you can build your own, heinz ketchup waits eagerly to be squirted onto the food.
The set breakfast - £5.25
I have passed the Hill Top Cafe in Rackheath more times than I can remember. The time had come to visit the place to see if it was any good..
Upon entering - Tables and seats line both sides of the cafe and there is a small counter straight ahead as you enter. The breakfast menu was found amongst the condiments on a laminate, it contained one set breakfast so no dilemmas there. 7/10
Service - Order at the counter, grab cutlery and sit down. Look at the traffic on Wroxham road until the food is bought over. The staff here seemed quite friendly. 7/10
Contents - 1 sausage, 2 bacon, fried potatoes, fried bread, mushrooms, beans and half a grilled tomato. 7/10
Presentation - It looked good when it arrived and filled the oval plate quite nicely. 7/10
The food - A juicy pork sausage and tasty bacon, slightly undercooked potatoes that could have done with 2 more mins in the fryer, fried bread that was ok but not as crispy as I like it, really nice mushrooms, good beans and a fairly standard tomato. 7/10
Value for money - £5.25 for the set breakfast seemed fair enough. 7/10
Veggie option - You could make your own up from a list of items.
Overall - Worth trying if you happen to be passing. Friendly service and nice food. 7/10

ReplyDeleteI came across your blog when researching cafes I wanted to visit as part of my cycle cafe reviewing blog and was planning a trip to the Hilltop cafe. I put a link to your blog in my post you right want to see. http://norfolkcafecycle.blogspot.co.uk/2014/01/aqua-biking-hill-top-cafe-rackheath.html
ReplyDeleteThanks for the mention, a great blog you have there! I will add a link to your blog on mine.
Deletei too had passed the cafe several times on my way elsewhere, had some time to kill a couple of weeks ago and thought i would give it a try, i was not dissapointed, i ordered the big breakfast not knowing what i was letting myself in for lol , it was HUGE!!! and very tasty and i almost managed it much to the surprise of the chef who thought i had done very well to eat all that i had, i am no skinny minnie either, anyway i will be going again in the morning when i leave off work at 7am , i recommend it , good tasty food and lovely friendly staff .
