Staff friendly enough but having eaten at many Thai restaurants I feel that there are better ones in Norfolk, the salad tasted musty and the quality of my starter and main dish was pretty poor, I’ll stick to Thailands in Thorpe, may be a tad more expensive but it’s worth the money.
Really good food and excellent value, service was acceptable. My only gripe with the place was that they’ve painted the beautiful old beams orange. Most people wouldn’t notice this I suppose but being a builder that specialises in preserving old buildings it irritated me! I get that the decor is supposed to oriental but there are ways to do that without striping the character out of what was a beautiful building. One day this place will change hands and some poor bugger with some taste is going to have to strip all that paint off. But I suppose to most people this is a minor detailother than that it was a lovely meal.
We come here yearly for our work Christmas Party. Tim and his staff are very lovely and the food is very nice.

First off ….. Hands up !! We are food snobs ? my husband is a chef and we have previously owned our own fine dining restaurant. We ALWAYS eat at Colchester inns , we have done so for 18 + years. So today we had a Carvery at The New Forge ( we courted there 32 years ago when it was The Greens ) We were both really pleasantly impressed!! The service was brilliant ? friendly and quick ( and it was BUSY!!!) The Carvery was lovely too, lots of choices with only the Yorkshire puddings seemingly bought in. The guy on the Carvery was super friendly and tried to oblige all my wishes. We had dessert……. LUSCIOUS ❤️? and to top it all off the young gentleman at the till was just LOVELY ☺️ also it’s AMAZING VALUE FOR MONEY ? 5* Thank you ? xx

Once again a fantastic carvery for our group of a dozen. The place was packed to the rafters but the staff were all calm and composed.Generous portions of the meats on offer. All veg from counter was hot and not dried out like some places. Well worth the ride out from Great Yarmouth to fill our bellies. From the bar team to the servers to the chappie with the very sharp knives - faultless...And an extra note, probably the cleanest set of toilets we have used at eateries across Norfolk we've frequented.

We went there for a Sunday carvery.Price is reasonable.Food was average, but it was enjoyable.Table service for the desert was very slow.There were barking dogs, which did spoil our visit.
