The Black Apollo Coffee House

The Black Apollo is the best speciality coffee shop in Holt (and of the ones I've visited, in Norfolk, as well). This café has well crafted espresso-based drinks, that use very high quality beans. I also really appreciate the selection of treats available, especially ones for those with dietary restrictions. As someone who is gluten free, it's lovely to have the option to choose between a few items. I want to really highlight the cannoli - it was absolutely delicious! The decor is what I would call whimsical. I love it! Some of the pieces - like the hare encircled with foliage - is downright weird, but delightful. There's also an abundance of art on the walls. My eyes never know where to settle, but I like that as it keeps me entertained and helps me stay present in the environment. Overall - a great café in Holt that I would definitely recommend!

Great service, lovely food, excellent coffee. They really put themselves out to look after you. Vegan and gluten free (the Victoria sponge!) options available.
