About The Glass House - JD Wetherspoon

A cavernous riverside Wetherspoons in Norwich that earns its keep with parents on the practical stuff: buggy access, high chairs, a kids' menu, cheap food and unlimited coffee refills for under £2. The beer garden by the water is the draw in summer, though it only catches the sun for a short stretch of the day and can feel chilly otherwise. Food comes out fast, which matters when someone's melting down, and the staff get consistent praise — quick to sort things out when an order goes astray, which regulars say happens often enough to be part of the charm. Snags worth knowing: the layout is huge and awkward to navigate with a pram, the bar queue is usually three deep, there are a lot of fruit machines, and weekends get properly busy and loud.
