Louis Marchesi in Norwich

Great pub. Friendly staff. Function room upstairs and pool table in the Crypt downstairs.

Photo is of the Maid's Head courtyard not the Louis.Bit of an artsy / hipster bar with refular live music events both in the main bar and upstairs.Cellar makes up for the black mould associated with a poorly ventilated, historic arched cellar by being converted to a games room with pool, old style computer games table and board games, dominos etc.Plenty of charm with reasonable food and good cellar.Named after the chap who started the round table charity at this establishment.Well worthy of a visit, can be quite loud on live music nights.

Top marks for the landlord and landlady. Nice beer.... Music slightly grunge but I was tapping a toe

Great vibe n fab open mic nights on a Wednesday night, good selection of gigs on a weekend.

Very expensive for what you get with extremely slow service, one and half hours wait for sandwiches. Poor customer service with no apology from waiters or manager.

If I could give more than 5* I would. Lisa and her team hosted my brother's Wake on 18th Feb, giving us use of the crypt and function room. They served amazing food (more than one person told me that the garlic bread was the best they'd ever tasted), were helpful and tolerant throughout the whole evening. We also hired their fantastic air bnb.Massive thank you to the staff, and cannot recommend a visit to this excellent pub enough.

We went in here to kill time whilst waiting to check into our hotel … what a lovely find.Warm friendly welcome and the tapas we had was absolutely amazing 🤩

First time here and had a great experience, friendly staff and good selection of drinks. Food was very nice and thoroughly enjoyed. Would highly recommend and I shall definitely be visiting again very soon!

Had a lovely meal & drinks today sitting on comfy sofas in front of a lovely open fire.Our dogs were welcomed no problem & we had a great time.If you want great food,friendly staff and a relaxing atmosphere you definitely need to try here

Excellent food which is really good value. Good selection of local ales. Friendly staff - one recommendation ask for a table away from the bar in the evenings if you want to able to hold a normal volume conversation.
