About
The Walpole Arms, Itteringham, dating back to the 18th century is a traditional country pub, sitting within the heart of north Norfolk's picturesque countryside in the village of Itteringham. Itteringham stands on the River Bure, four miles north west from the market town of Aylsham and just two miles from the National Trust's magnificent Blickling Hall. We pride ourselves on offering an innovative and exciting menu, preparing dishes using the highest quality, locally produced, seasonal ingredients. Our traditional bar area is full of country pub charm, with a wood burner warming up cold winter nights, welcoming both diners and non-diners alike, whether it is a pint of one of our many real ales…

Generally very good - but!

A great location, good ambience in the bar/restaurant and brilliant staff. The menu is good and we all enjoyed our main courses, but the starter King Prawn cocktail at £9.00 a pop was very poor value for money, and not very good either. A measly...More

Went with family and we were not disappointed. The food was outstanding, the roast sirloin of beef was cooked by someone who knows what they are doing, pink in the middle. Roast potatoes that were crispy, this is a first as so many places serve...More

Dear Katie B I was sitting at the table next to you on the occasion to which you refer. With reference to your statement "Only when we complained did anyone seem to notice and then we had just an apology - not even the offer of a free coffee make up for the bad service and time we had to wait." I know for a fact that if you take the trouble to check with your companions, particularly the person who actually settled the bill, you will find that the restaurant, as well as offering profuse apologies at the time, also took the cost of ALL of your drinks off of the bill in way of recompense. I suggest that, particularly given that all your previous experiences have been good, by your own admission, you think twice before publishing such a negative and potentially damaging review. I can only think that you have never made any mistakes yourself over your lifetime. Terry P
