Our daughter is friends with one of the owner, Grace and we have been looking forward to coming to her little "bijou" of a place. This little cosy bar is well known for its special cocktails and drinks and the ones we tasted the evening we attended the supper club were fantastic. I should have kept a copy of the... More

Norwich is full of hidden gems, and 42 King street is definitely among them. Upon discovering this discreet little restaurant one is rewarded with a warm welcome and the most mouthwatering selections of drinks that the city can offer. The cocktail menu is inviting and clear and although initially the pricing might seem a little toward the premium end of... More

Went here after reading all the reviews here. Great little place, very intimate, and a great range of amazing cocktails. Mixologist really knew her stuff and was friendly and attentive throughout our stay. She also happily made up a bespoke cocktail for one of our party which was excellent. Thoroughly recommended for the best cocktails in Norwich.

A place I had walked by many times but never popped in, thought we would give it a try. The tapas was very nice (especially the lamb meatballs), reasonably priced and the cocktails were excellent. The lady doing the cocktails was very knowledgeable and the atmosphere was welcoming. Will definitely go again.

We went to 42 Kings Street for drinks and “tapas” on Friday night. The atmosphere was awkward as we were the only people in there. The drinks were good but the food was terrible. We ordered 3 tapas dishes which were expensive, small and bland. The chorizo wasn’t fresh, served with frozen peas and no sauce to speak of. The... More

I had never heard of 42 Kings Street until a friend recommended it, and I am glad they did. 42 Kings Street is run by a lovely couple who are both friendly and make the best cocktails! We ate lovely Tapas, basically one of each from the menu! Each dish was beautifully cooked. We also drank lovely cocktails. There was... More

Met my partner here after work on Friday after seeing the great TripAdvisor reviews. We were the only people there as it was early, and got to speak to the couple who appear to run this place. Both seemed really passionate about what they were doing which must be a good thing. The cocktail list looked very unusual, and we... More
