The Café at Brovey Lair
A very private place

Situated in southwest Norfolk 20 miles from Norwich and specialising in prime fish and seafood Brovey Lair is widely regarded as the county’s finest restaurant. Its benchmark score of 5 in The Good Food Guide is only one mark less than East Anglia’s two Michelin starred restaurants – Morston Hall and Midsummer House.

Tina Pemberton’s highly praised fusion cooking continues to excite writers, critics and diners alike. On 3 occasions The Times featured Brovey Lair as one of their 10 best pan-Asian restaurants with accommodation and The Telegraph twice in their feature ‘Three of a Kind’. Square Meal, the UK’s prestigious and glossy dining directory and website aimed at London’s glitterati and high achievers, last year chose Brovey Lair as one of its 50 top restaurants outside the capital city.

Before visiting the menus page you should know Tina designs a 4 course meal around your food preferences. Join her on a romantic pan-Asian journey that in the space of three hours will take you across Europe to India, Thailand, China, Japan and the Pacific Rim. Exotic, erotic, peripatetic - call it what you will, you’ll rediscover tastes and spices long forgotten. Fish is the toughest challenge for even the best chefs. Watch Tina as she cooks in front of you on the fabulous Japanese tepan grill.

Hedonistic and unashamedly secretive Brovey Lair is a private place where the food is orgasmic, the wines caringly selected and the overnight experience unrivalled. No kids, no dogs and no noise other than the cooing of black collared doves and Norfolk breezes gently whispering their way through eleven weeping willows. Blissfully hard to find and wickedly indulgent, once you’re there you may just want to stay for ever!

Brovey Lair -
a gastronomic oasis

“Tina and Mike Pemberton have created a real epicurean retreat in Norfolk. Everything - atmosphere, setting, wine, ingredients and cuisine are of the highest calibre.
It is indeed, like going to the most sensational dinner party. Seafood is the star and “from-the-boat” fresh. The palate dances with the delights of Tina’s infusion cooking and choices of seasonings. She’s inventive and creative. The soups, starters, entrees, and desserts are all signature dishes of this master of the kitchen. Book soon before this romantic food haven is discovered by the ‘Chelsea-on-Sea’ bunch.”
