The Willows Cafe & Bistro
A newly refurbished bistro cafe, introducing a completely new menu offering, located in the heart of Drayton, aiming to deliver a friendly and great service to their lovely customers. We strive to cater for all customers needs using quality and locally sourced produce, from quality, freshly ground coffee and loose leaf teas, to hearty "create your own" breakfasts, to a more refined Eggs Benedict or Eggs Royale.

We have also introduced an extensive lunch menu, ranging from a simple home made soup or light bite options, to salads or delicious burgers to name a few. Both vegetarian and gluten free options are available throughout the new menu. If a sweet tooth is your weakness, we can fully accommodate your needs from scrumptious daily home made fruit and cheese scones, a large slice of delicious cake or numerous cold desserts to enjoy.

I requested a takeaway afternoon tea for a friend's birthday celebration. I needed one standard and one gluten-free. The teas were packed separately, no chance of cross-contamination. The food was of a very good quality, sandwiches and savoury pastries as well as scone and a selection of cakes. The gluten-free sandwiches and cakes were excellent.
Highly recommended.

Big serving, bright surrounding, lovely food and friendly staff. It was a busy Sunday morning so our orders took a long time thus the 4, otherwise nice stay.

I like this cafe for its atmosphere and friendliness and good coffee. Had breakfast here a few times as its local to me. My only small complaint is my poached eggs are always overcooked. So eggs a 2 star but overall experience 4 stars.

Nice cafe. Staff were very friendly and helpful.
When I visited just after 2pm, there was an extremely limited selection of cakes.... Based on previous reply from owner I guess this is partly related to the impact of covid on trade. Also this was an hour before they were due to close (3pm).
The biscoff cheesecake and americano I had were both excellent.
Sign on door said booking was advised, but I was able to get a table without a booking.

Met a friend for coffee and cake. Service was exceptional and friendly. I didn't reserve a spot but was accommodated when we arrived. I will say, there wasn't a great selection of cakes for a lunchtime coffee unfortunately. My other gripe was the big fat land rover parked in the entrance blocking the (small) car park. Although that is not the fault of the cafe 😙 just a selfish driver!

A fantastic hidden gem of Norwich open 7 days a week.
My personal experience is of warmth smiling faces and only one error.
Within 2 minutes of stepping into the cafe I was seated and had a menu in front of me. The waitress on front seemed genuine and smiling bearing in mind there was only 2 members of staff serving and 3 in the back ( as can be seen by pictures ).
I wasn’t in a rush and within 10 minutes my order was taken. All food is sourced locally and cooked to order. I had the 7 piece brunch with toast and free refill filter coffee. I had to admit I couldn’t eat it all. When it turned
