ABOUT
Discover Great Wines on the North Norfolk Coast
North Norfolk Cellars is an independent wine merchant based in the picturesque town of Wells-next-the-Sea. We stock a wide range of wines, spirits, food, plants, and gifts. Our bar, with stunning views of Wells Harbour and the saltmarsh, serves tapas made with high-quality local ingredients sourced directly from some of the best food producers. Enjoy wines by the glass, bottles, or try our tasting flights any time. Children and dogs are welcome if well-behaved, and booking is recommended.
We host a monthly wine tasting exploring different countries, grapes, or regions, and you can also book a private, bespoke tasting for groups of four or more—all easily arranged here on our site.
