Tall Orders Catering — Restaurant in Breckland District

I nearly always visit this cafe whenever I am in Dereham as it's such an asset to the town and one of my favourite places in Norfolk to go! Been a few times and the food is always excellent. I have finally managed to try one of the ever popular home made sausage rolls which did not disappoint! These usually sell out so quickly and with not living that local I have not been lucky enough before to be able to get one despite several attempts, but I have now and am very glad I did! They were seasoned perfectly with a wonderful array of subtle but tasty flavours/mild spices which really brought out the flavour. The sausage meat was high quality, no gristle at all. I also had a biscoff latte and this was one of the best coffees I have had, I could really taste the biscoff syrup. Even without the syrup I think this would have been a very nice latte. They have an extensive choice of syrups to choose from rather than just the standard ones you usually get in most places, so I always look forward to having a hot drink in here with a unique syrup to choose from. Back in 2019 I visited for the first time and had the french toast with maple syrup and bacon. I believe they either use to offer this all day (which they don't anymore, only for breakfast up until 12pm) or I asked and they said I could order it for lunch as they were not too busy (which they might be happy to do again, especially if asked in advance) I ordered this without the cheese and I was pleasantly surprised to see that they had very kindly taken £1.50 off the price for not having the cheese which is a rarity for cafes/restaurants to do! This was very much appreciated and showed excellent customer service! Occasionally they have got my orders wrong, one time I ordered a panini without cheese and had to send it back as it had cheese in, and when we had the sausage rolls the other day both me and my partner did ask for these to be without the salad garnish and they both came with it, but they have always been apologetic for any mistakes made and take the food back without any issues or fuss and corrects it for us. Tall Orders is always a good shout when needing to stop for lunch and the food quality is always top notch. I am yet to try one of their cakes as I keep needing to lose weight, but one day I will give one of them a go - the biscoff cookie dough slice...

Quite appalling.

Me and my partner wanted to go out for breakfast and because of the good aesthetic and high ratings we decides to take a look. The decor was nice and our waiter was very nice and welcoming, however our problem was with the food. My partner ordered freshly squeezed orange juice but when it arrived, it had over 6 dead baby flies in as well as a larger parent fly which we, at the time put down to the warm weather (however the oranges weren't washed before being placed into the juicing machine as they were piled up inside the top of the machine so I believe it could've been avoided)

Our next problem was with the food. The presentation was good and they hand gluten free alternatives (as I have coeliacs disease) but the quality and taste of the food is my biggest concern. I ordered a, 'Luxurious French Toast' which was toast and bacon topped with chives and syrup which pooled on the plate almost filling the entirety of it. The toast had streaks of yolk and wasn't seared to a nice crisp, it was still quite floppy and bread-like (the syrup didn't help) and overall wasn't very nice to eat. The bacon was cooked from frozen (you could tell from the graining when pulling it apart) and was cooked inconsistently (some bits were charcoal whilst other parts were undercooked). My partner only really complained really about the blandness of their food and the size of the sausage/amount of bacon (which I believe to be part of a breakfast burrito? I can't quite remember what it was called on the menu but I digress).

Overall I believe my experience wasn't at all what I was expecting. They did take the drink off of our bill and compensate it after my partner went up and complained after they tried to make up pay for the drink that had flies in but despite that I was severely underwhelmed. The price for both of us was £17 (including the compensation reduction) otherwise it...

The tall orders team provided the catering on our wedding day Saturday. There were 100 seated guests and a further 100 for the evening making it 200 guests.

The whole day ran seamless and we, our families and all our guests had such a great day and one that will live long in our memories.

We won't forget Jennies enthusiasm and efforts to ensure we had the most incredible food and the tall orders team certainly succeeded in making our day the very best they could.

All of our guests said the canapés were the best they have ever had. The afternoon tea was exemplary and the cakes and savouries were outstanding. The evening salads and potatoes were also very nice indeed and went down a treat!

Will be in for an afternoon tea or two….! Soon.

All our love and thanks, Keri,...
