Customer Review Summary
The fillet of beef is what diners raise most, with one calling it easily one of the best they have had and another describing it as cooked to perfection and beautifully presented. Close behind are the twice baked cheese soufflé, called light and full of flavour, and the blood orange and buttermilk pudding. A rhubarb cocktail of the month also earns praise, and one reviewer notes the wine was thoughtfully matched to the dishes. Several reviewers mention the restaurant being under new ownership, with service described as friendly, attentive and relaxed, and the manager singled out for making every table feel welcome. Two couples describe wedding celebrations here, praising the canapés and the way the team handled loose planning. The atmosphere is called intimate, sophisticated and comfortable. One diner who arrived without a reservation on a busy Saturday was squeezed in by the manager and waited in the bar, then said they would reserve next time. No complaints appear in the reviews.

“What a fantastic evening we had last night at the re launch of The Last Wine Bar and Restaurant. The atmosphere was electric the staff are so friendly and helpful and the owner ( who's name escapes me) was the perfect host. My wife and I made some lovely new friends and will definitely be going back very soon for a delicious meal. Thank you for a wonderful evening.”

“Dined at The Last Wine Bar on 24/1/2026 during a busy Saturday dinner service. We hadn’t thought to reserve a table, assuming January would be quiet oh, how wrong we were! Thankfully, the manager was able to squeeze us in. We started in the bar while waiting for our table and tried the Rhubarb cocktail of the month, which was absolutely delicious. For dinner, I enjoyed the fillet of beef from the à la carte menu, easily one of the best I’ve ever had! We also took advantage of the 25% off, which was a lovely bonus. The food was beautifully presented, just delicious , and the desserts were as pretty as they were tasty. Service was excellent throughout, and we will definitely be back, this time, I will be sure to reserve a table! Thank you for a wonderful evening.”

“Under new ownership, The Last Wine Bar has truly raised the bar. The atmosphere is elegant yet inviting, and the food is nothing short of excellent, beautifully presented, flavourful, and made with high-quality ingredients. Service was attentive and warm, with staff who clearly care about the guest experience. Manager Sebastian stood out for his professionalism and personal touch, making sure every table felt welcome and well looked after. A standout dining experience from start to finish. Highly recommended.”

“My husband and I had a small wedding ceremony in 2024, and we wanted a simple yet beautiful celebration afterwards. We chose The Last based on the menu and the reviews, and we are so happy we did! Sebastian and his team made our special day even more memorable. Everything was impeccable—the attention to detail, the delicious food, the incredibly attentive staff, and the wonderful atmosphere. We were so pleased with our experience that we returned with our family to celebrate our first wedding anniversary, this time for a Sunday roast. Amazing restaurant!”

Good to know
“The Last Bar & Restaurant is a real Norwich institution. Housed in a former Victorian shoe factory, with 4 distinct eating areas for drinks, lunch and dinner - the iconic upstairs heritage bar, the trendy downstairs cellar dining room, the relaxed modern brasserie (Taylors @ The Last) & the outdoor courtyard (drinks/lunches). The food is modern, inventive & locally sourced. We serve a Menu du Jour as well as an A la Carte combined with a great wine list. We also serve interesting Beers, cocktails and non-alcoholic drinks. We have a young and ambitious team dedicated to ensuring that you enjoy your visit. The relaxed ambiance has inspired a loyal following across three plus decades. Norwich without The Last is unthinkable.”
