Extended opening hours and the introduction of a Sunday lunch service alone would significantly increase revenue.With the benefit of an alcohol licence already in place, there is a wealth of untapped opportunity to grow the offering beyond the daytime trade.Creative ideas such as pop-up kitchen residencies, seasonal taster menus, and curated wine tasting evenings could transform the tea room into an atmospheric evening venue appealing to both locals and visitors looking for something unique.A Friday night wood-fired pizza service, accompanied by locally sourced craft beers and Norfolk wines, would offer a relaxed and social dining experience, while guests wait or unwind in the village setting. The space is also well suited for event hire, private dining, and themed food nights all of which could significantly increase turnover and broaden the customer base.With strong staycation demand and three holiday lets already in operation, there s further potential to create stay-and-dine packages, making the most of this multi-faceted site and tapping into Norfolk s growing food and hospitality market.With the above implemented we feel there is potential to increase the current income by 100%.
