It is a very nice discovery, creative dishes and very well presented. All the plates were rich and perfect balanced flavour, a real treat for your palate.

The only slight disappointment with this restaurant was its location. It's literally squeezed between normal houses and sitting outside in the "garden" felt a bit awkward. Plastic "windows" felt cheap and didn't help. Having said all that I imagine sitting inside is a very different experience.
Luckily when it came to food I was not disappointed. Every dish was not only tasty but also creative and memorable. I literally wanted to try everything on the menu. I'd love to be able to come back here often as I've been told the menu changes regularly.
Also our waiter was very friendly and helpful and the dishes arrived very quickly.
All in all I'd definitely recommend this place for anyone who likes good and creative food.

Awful value for money. Went as a group of 7. Had seen previous reviews and had good expectations.

Menu was different to expected (what was seen online).

To start. I am not a big drinker, but don’t want sugar or calories. They had absolutely no diet fizzy drinks at all to offer. I had to drink water… fine I suppose. Though I did have to request a normal sized glass- the ones we were given were smaller than the ones used for children’s school dinners.

The menu- a few meats to choose from. Veg dishes all same price as meat dishes- a small plate of teriyaki mushrooms for £9- nice, but average (and not enough of it). Not worth the price we paid. The corn was literally a corn on the cob, barely grilled with a bit of sauce, again not worth paying for. The smacked cucumber, no zing, not enough and horrendously expensive for what it is- a cucumber costs less than £1! The potato came as 2 little chunks- overly salty with a mustard sauce. The fried chicken that we waited a long time for, was unfortunately dry, the coating was not crispy, and the sauce was too thin and didn’t go with the chicken at all- not worth the wait.

A long time to wait between dishes which meant there were long pauses between a bit of rice.. then a bit of salad.. then the cucumber but now the rice is stone cold.

The waiting staff were lovely, absolutely nothing wrong with the service! Unfortunately the food, portions, glassware, prices, are all way off.

Great food, but Google maps have it as ££ where as I think it's more expensive. However, I would say the price was right for the food quality and service. They say they promote sharing dishes, so perhaps I missed out as a solo diner. Good for wine drinkers, but limited choice for beer enthusiasts. It was quite a walk from where I was staying, but worth the journey, especially when combined with a trip to the Fat Cat pub close by (which has a huge beer selection).

You’ll be the alpha of the pack after dining at Woolf & Social. When visiting Norwich for a weekend, I was taken to this excellent spot with unique dishes. The service was fast, high quality and you’ll be howling at the moon for more after sampling this sublime menu. The fact you don’t have to hound them about their payment methods is also excellent as they willingly take American Express

Loved this place. Small and cosy but the staff are really polite and helpful. Now onto the food. Such lovely flavours in every dish. Was nice to try something different, especially on the vegetarian and vegan options. I’ll definitely be back soon

We were fortunately accommodated as a late walk-in on a Friday night, and were so lucky the kitchen stayed open for us, because every dish we ordered was superb. The staff were welcoming and friendly - we ordered by their recommendations and were not disappointed! We sat outside and there was a comfortable, warm atmosphere, can't fault the service and we had a lovely evening.
