The Marsh Harrier has a rich history dating back to 1840 when it was initially known as The King of Prussia, serving as a quaint cafe with a charming tea garden. Over the years, it transformed into an inn until the outbreak of World War I in 1914, prompting a name change to the George IV. Following a significant £1 million refurbishment, the restaurant decided to embrace the rural surroundings and the close proximity to the River Yare, leading them to adopt the name The Marsh Harrier.
Dive straight in with the salt and pepper calamari, served alongside saffron aioli, or surrender to the temptation of sticky crispy chicken, generously glazed with chipotle chilli jam. Alternatively, enjoy the succulent prawns bathed in a bloody mary Marie Rose sauce, accompanied by fresh avocado, tomatoes, lettuce, and sourdough bread. These delicious starters set the stage for an enticing selection of main courses.
Choose from our sumptuous offerings, such as the aubergine parmigiana, a delightful concoction of garlic, peppers, and a sweet, smoky tomato sauce, crowned with herb crumb and mozzarella. It's perfectly accompanied by a mixed salad and garlic ciabatta. If seafood is more your calling, try the seared fillet of sea bass, placed atop a pea and crispy bacon velouté, served alongside steamed broccoli and spring onion mash. And, for those craving indulgence, there's always the rich and satisfying beef and red wine lasagne.
Save room for dessert, where the milk chocolate honey pot awaits. A harmonious blend of velvety chocolate mousse, silky honey, and crunchy honeycomb, elegantly paired with a buttery biscuit and honeycomb ice cream, promises a symphony of sweet flavours and textures.
As for drinks, The Marsh Harrier’s bar proudly showcases a diverse offering, from locally crafted hand-pulled ales and ciders to timeless classic cocktails.
