ver wondered what’s going on in Harleston? This charming town has been voted Norfolk Town of the Year several times, and it’s no wonder.

There is something for everyone in Harleston; a menagerie of shops, cafes, restaurants, a free museum, and a busy calendar of events live up to the town motto ‘Time for Everyone’. And with free parking you can do just that, and take your time to enjoy everything Harleston has to offer. Take a look at the superb range of specialty shops, including clothing boutiques like Daisy & Co, Sue Read Shoes with a men’s clothing department, and antiques aplenty at Cornucopia at the Corn Exchange. Mrs Clarke’s General

Store stocks unique interiors alongside home décor and gifts, and features a gourmet, fully-licensed coffee bar. Stop at The Green Cupboard and All Things Greener to refill cleaning products and stock up on nuts, seeds, spices and more. When you’re ready for a rest, let your tastebuds guide you to an array of eateries including the vegan / vegetarian Hungry Cat Cafe, newlyrefurbished The Cap (Ampersand Brew Co’s first pub), and Momiji Japanese Restaurant. Take home Harleston’s finest from The Tudor Bakehouse, Adnams, DA Browne & Son butchers, and local fishmonger The Fish Box.
