PRIME is a steakhouse located on Tombland in the heart of Norwich, just a stone’s throw from the city’s iconic cathedral. This independent restaurant focuses on showcasing high-quality British beef and offers a dining experience centred around expertly cooked steaks.
The menu is built around a selection of prime cuts, including fillet, sirloin, ribeye, and rump, with the option to upgrade to larger cuts like chateaubriand or tomahawk for sharing. The steaks are cooked to order and served with a choice of sauces such as peppercorn, blue cheese, or garlic butter. For those seeking alternatives, the menu also features non-steak options, including chicken, fish, and vegetarian dishes. Sides range from triple-cooked chips to creamed spinach and garlic mushrooms. Desserts include indulgent options like sticky toffee pudding and cheesecake. PRIME also offers a Sunday roast menu, with beef, chicken, or vegetarian wellington served alongside all the traditional trimmings.
The restaurant is housed in a Grade II-listed building with a contemporary interior that retains period features. Exposed brick walls and wooden beams give the space a distinctive character, while the layout accommodates both intimate tables for two and larger groups. The setting is designed to complement the focus on quality dining without unnecessary frills.
Reservations are recommended, particularly for peak times, and can be made online via the restaurant’s website. A private dining room is available for hire, making it a suitable choice for celebrations or business gatherings.
