About Spinnakers
Sunday lunch at Spinnakers means a full roast, lamb with all the trimmings, served in a cafe that otherwise runs on daytime trade from Meadow Rd in Cromer. Breakfast anchors much of the menu, with a cooked full English alongside waffles with fresh berries and a vine tomato and halloumi bruschetta. The kitchen also turns out a quiche of the day, cheese and onion among them, plated with salad, plus sandwiches and fish and chips, with children's portions available. Cakes and pastries fill out the counter, from molten-middle chocolate brownies to vegan sausage rolls. Coffee is made to order across espresso, flat white, latte, cappuccino and americano, and the wider menu runs to around 46 dishes. Dogs are welcome, so walkers can stop in without leaving anyone outside. The cafe opens daily except Tuesdays, and it sits close to the main car park with parking opposite.

Customer Review Summary
Breakfast is the draw reviewers return to most, with several describing cooked breakfasts that arrived quickly and cooked perfectly, and one pair walking the coast path rating it the best of their stops. Close behind sits the quiche of the day, singled out as cheese and onion in one account and paired with a salad in another, alongside waffles with fresh berries and a vege quinoa burger called delightful. Also named are molten middle chocolate brownies, vegan sausage rolls, children's sandwiches and fish and chips for a party of eleven, and a Father's Day Sunday roast with lamb. Coffee comes up repeatedly as proper and better than the nearby chains. Warmth of the staff runs through nearly every account, described as polite, welcoming and attentive without hovering, with one reviewer saying a server treated them as though they were dining at the Savoy. Several expressly recommend the place to anyone in Cromer, and a few mention sitting outside with their dog.

“Highly recommended if you're in Cromer. Sat with our dog outside. Hubby had a cooked breakfast and I had quiche with an amazing salad. Good proper coffee. Exceptionally welcoming staff, David treated us like we were dining at the Savoy. It's near the main car park but away from the crowds.”
- Helen Badger
“Stopped by for lunch today, had waffles with fresh berries- it was amazing. Brilliant service and so friendly. Space to sit outside and people watch and seating inside. Highly recommend for a quality breakfast and if you want more than just a full English- which they do, but who wants that everyday.”

“Amazing service from all the staff. Really friendly and welcoming throughout our lunch which was a large party of 11 with 5 children. Kids all loved their sandwiches or fish and chips. I got the Vege Quinoa burger which was delightful. My wife got the cheese and onion quiche of the day which was delicious. Coffees was better than most of the chain places around. It's very close to a large car park so I highly recommend!”
