About this restaurant

Neighborhood gem
Innovative
Romantic

From the street the Norfolk Arms is your typical London pub. A place where Charles Dickens might drink with Samuel Pepys. Mix and match benches and tables clutter the pavement where – rather than bewigged gentlemen – local business-types and shoppers refresh after a hard day at the coalface. Inside the traditional feel continues while a lively ambience and fresh paint keep the look free from old-man-and-dog territory. A new breed of gastropub, the Norfolk Arms has already gained critical acclaim, thanks in part to its novel ordering concept. Nevermind starters and mains, this is tapas-meets-home cooking, where you just keep ordering plates of food until you can scarf no more. Roast dinners, pates, scotch eggs and pork belly are joined by Mediterranean flavours throughout.

Don't be put off from the outside! Inside is full of amazing decor with excellent food to go with it. Would really recommend this. My only slight criticism is the the service did deteriorate as it got busy as we where sitting in a corner and were a bit forgotten about

First visit to NA since before the pandemic. It’s just as good and just as good value. Hats off to then in particular for not inflating the prices on the wine list as other places have done.

A great find! Our daughter is studying at UCL and we often stay in the area and take her out to eat. This place has a lovely atmosphere in a fab setting with a great choice of fantastic tapas and other food if you don’t like small plates. Service was friendly and attentive. We will definitely return….

Very friendly and laid back atmosphere - but in the lovely setting of the old pub, good range of tapas style dishes, and everything was really delicious. Very reasonably priced wine - more pub prices than London restaurant, which is what this place seems to straddle perfectly - you feel like you’re in both simultaneously. Will definitely be back.
