I don’t usually leave reviews... BUT... wow! I’d often seen people queuing outside and had heard from so many people that Cafe 33 was a must-visit. So, on a random Thursday afternoon, we finally gave it a go—and I’m so glad we did! From the moment we walked in, we were welcomed by friendly and attentive staff, and the atmosphere was just spot on. The menu was brilliantly put together, full of tempting descriptions that made choosing a challenge (in the best way!). But nothing could have prepared us for just how incredible the food was. Every bite was packed with flavour, and it’s clear that a huge amount of passion and care goes into every dish. Every plate of food we watched appear in front of other customers looked just as delicious (yes we are nosey and had food envy!) The owners and team should be so proud of what they’ve created—it’s not just about great food; it’s an experience. Well done, Cafe 33 team! We’ll definitely be back.

Honestly one of the best cafe/restaurants in Norwich. I’ve been multiple times with friends and family who have adored it too. Their high quality food and drinks are always a dream with a great selection of food for dietary requirements also. Cannot stress enough how great this place is with the service always attentive :) The only thing that I can fault is sometimes there can be a bit of a wait for a table on busier times but sometimes you are able to walk straight in.

I dropped by this cafe and it's easy to see why there’s often a queue outside just to get in. The short wait was more than justified and definitely didn't disappoint. Our full English was a satisfying medley of all the traditional fixings, with everything cooked perfectly. Albeit busy, the place had a pretty laid-back vibe and the friendly service just made it the perfect start to our day, we'll be back for sure.

Delicious food and coffee with lovely staff. Food and drinks were served fast. Lots of veggie and vegan options too. The cafe itself had a quaint interior. Had the sticky cauliflower taco and it was delicious, then had some of my partners stacked pancakes and they were so light and fluffy. Partner had a coffee and he was very pleased with it. Was a weekday and we got there around 10am but by 10:30am it was getting busy.

Great little brunch spot in Norwich. We had to queue outside for about 15 minutes, but it was worth the wait. I had the Naanwich, super yum! Daughter had the Biscoff waffles which she said was so good and not too sweet! And hubby had the Xmas special which I had to sneak some when he wasn’t looking, def worth it! Def recommend if you happy to wait

Nice buzzy atmosphere. Huge menu. The dirty chai was excellent and generous. Loaded hash brown with ham was delicious and a unique combination, ham hock was moist. The granola was not too sweet, and light, also massive. Really enjoyed that. We had to bag the waffle to go as we were too full to take a stab at it. Highly recommend!
