Top Things to do in Norfolk
The 8 Best Bowling Alleys in Norfolk, England
A holiday in Norfolk is not a glamorous break. While the Norfolk Broads of East Anglia are a beautiful part of the UK, they represent a relaxing rural getaway rather than a high-powered city-break. Although its reputation is mostly rural, with people associating the county mostly with the wetlands of the Norfolk Broads, there are also towns such as Norwich and King's Lynn to visit, both of which provide shopping opportunities, nightlife and entertainment. Norfolk also contains a large stretch of coastline, and seaside destinations such as Cromer and Great Yearmouth mean there are great beaches to be found as well. Many areas of the Norfolk Broads and the coastal region are sites of outstanding natural beauty, and are also protected as bird reserves, so take a pair of binoculars on holiday. There are also popular wildlife attractions such as Banham Zoo, with a great collection of big cats, and Great Yarmouth's Sea Life Centre, one of the biggest of its kind in the country, complete with tropical sharks and conger eels. And of course, if any of your family are interested in boating, you'll need to rent a boat and explore the waterways of the Broads themselves!

Really enjoyable experience as always. No bowling due to covid restrictions, so just drinks and food with friends outside. Friendly and attentive service, good prices including great-tasting 241 cocktails anytime on different cocktails and a variety of them, great tasting food and well-chosen music. They even moved us to another table when our time ended and never pushed us to leave. Will be going again soon to use my new membership and to bowl too!

Visited the Megafun play area only with my 5 year old. It all felt very safe with respect to COVID - clean, good one way system, lots of sanitiser and limited numbers. It was so nice for my daughter to get back inside a soft play!

Had my work Christmas party at Namco Funscape Norwich. I honestly can't fault any of the staff, from the moment we entered the facility to the moment we left we were looked after and provided with an excellent experience. The food was also amazing. The two managers working that night (Beau and Nick) couldn't have been more accommodating. The reception, bar and cafe staff also provided us with a 1st class experience. They are a credit to the company! Can't wait to book again! ????????????????????

Following the relaxation of some of the Government’s Covid-19 measures we’re very happy to announce that JR’s will re-open on 9th July. We’ve got outdoor adventure play; the A-maze-ing Maize Maze, the JR’s giant sandpit beach and NEW this year is the JR’s Giant Chalkboard, plus of course deliciously tasty All-American Dine-in or Dine-out treats too. (Sorry, STOMP Indoor Play and STRIKE tenpin bowling cannot re-open at present). Get lost in the JR’s Maize Maze – let off some steam as you wind your way around the paths. Discover the beach in our G-I-A-N-T sandpit! The perfect place for the grown-ups to “chill out” in a deckchair while watching the kiddies play play play.Look out for our NEW giant Chalkboard – it’s huge, just perfect for chalky scribbles, perfect for taking some selfies to share with friends and family. The Maize Maze Picnic Benches are a great spot for the family to get together and relax. Please double-check opening hours before making a special journey.
