We have been to this restaurant many times over the last 5+ years and no problems,and always have a jacket potato, food reasonable prices and ample. Unfortunately this visit we were very dissatisfied we both opted for jacket potato , which was an average but small potatoe, filling given was small too, and salad small infact for £8 each it was terrible. My husband didn't want salad and was not offered a bit more filling instead which would of been nice the prices have gone up considerably but the portions have gone down. The lady serving was not friendly and we just felt really let down by the customer service. We didn't eat until gone 2 so we thought a bigger portion would of been the case t...
Jarrolds Pantry is simply the best place for Lunch in Norwich, Freshly prepared food, Superb Pastry Chef (Sue) served by the delightful Rachel and Emily Today they went the xtra mile, we phoned earlier in the week to see if they were serving our favorite Steak and Kidney Pie on Good Friday, left a message and low and behold the Executive Chef NickHarris called us back to say he would be very happy to add it to the Friday Menu. So when we turned up it was proudly delivered from the Kitchen. As usual it was superb. So thanks Jarrolds for making the day special, you really deliver for the customer Can't wait to return
It was not particularly busy when we went, but still had to queue to get our food, then queue again for our coffee, and finally queue again to pay. It was like queueing for school dinners as a child. The carvery was played for you and had a very poor choice of vegetables . All in all just an over priced cafeteria. There are many smaller, better independent restaurants/cafes in Norwich which offer good food reasonably priced and with excellent table service.
Shopping with a friend dictates lunch here. Lots of choice, salad, freshly made rolls with your choice of filling, jacket potatoes with choice of sandwich fillings as topping, cakes, scones and hot full meal available We opted for jacket potato filled with chicken, bacon and avocado in Mayo it was absolutely delicious and o can’t recommend it enough. The potato was large with lots of filling and came with a small side salad

I come here maybe three times a year when I want a good filling dinner. It’s nice, tasty and good value I think. I also generally have cheesecake afterwards- again, so tasty and a huge, impossible to finish portion. Prices have gone up, but then they have everywhere and it’s a nice homely feeling (probably because it’s been here forever serving the same decent food) place to eat. Staff are always nice too.
Usually eat in the Bay restaurant in Jarrolds, but as I was on my own, decided to give this cafe a whirl. I wasn’t going to have a hot meal, but the sight of the roast beef made me change my mind. Food was really delicious, beef was very tender and cooked to perfection, accompanied by well cooked vegetables Nice staff, helped cos I had bags of shopping
We popped in for a cup of tea as it was a really wet cold day and we needed a break. The cafe needs a bit of a refresh but it has character and was a nice place to relax for a little while. We did feel their drinks were expensive but I think that the department store overall is a little overpriced.
It is rare nowadays to find a department store like Jarrold’s which sells almost everything. On our wandered around we came to their small café and sat down for drinks and cake. The lady who served us was very pleasant and the tea, coffee and cake filled a gap until dinner time.

Superb lunch of homemade Steak and Kidney Pie and veg. I usually go for the Carvery but the pie looked so good I opted for that and was not disappointed.
A shadow of its former self, scones were stodgy and coffee not hot. Used to be buzzing with life this.time of day any day. Quite sad to see
