Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Went on a spur of the moment trip as I'd heard about the place but never looked into it. Soooo glad we did! Food was amazing! The cuts of steak were unbelievably good. The unlimited set menus were amazingly good value for money and the quality of the food was 11 out of ten! The waitress Jess was amazing!! There to refresh your drink or food almost instantly, but never felt like she was hovering around you or anything like that. Would recommend this to anyone and will definitely be going again in the future!!

First time visit, was a shame they didnt have our booking on their system, but luckily they were able to accommodate us. We sat upstairs and all had the Menu 1 option. Bread rolls, olives and chorizo to start with, staff always ensuring we had enough and were offering top ups.
Soft drinks, wine and sangria free flowing, again staff always topping up the jugs of sangria without us having to ask.
Then came the hot stones, fries, rice, black beans and coleslaw and strips of thin well seasoned steak. Again staff continually topping up the steak and sides.
All food was tasty and service great.
With the Eat Out to Help Out Scheme made the whole experience even better as it was only ÂŁ14.50 for all you can eat/drink.
Would definitely recommend a visit to anyone who loves steak.
We will be back!

We booked for two families of four. This was our first visit here and we were delighted. We opted for all you can eat for ÂŁ25 per adult. Children free. Even the two 12 year olds were covered for ÂŁ10 each!
Starters were warm bread rolls and chorizo. Lovely.
The steak was continuously served, ready for us to place on the stone and cook to our liking (rare mostly!) Chicken pieces were offered in addition for the children to cook, as well as steak. Rice and black bean sauce accompanied this. A carafe of house red and house white were immediately placed on the table and replaced often.
What makes this type of 'all you can eat offer' work so well is the attentive service and speedy replacement of food. I have been to places where long breaks gradually erode the appetite. This was fabulous! Everything was replaced quickly. There was no need to 'catch someone's eye.' The service was friendly and that rare situation occurred where you felt happy to go with the restaurants recommendation, which was all you can eat.
The steak was tender and seasoned. The house wine was good. Only now, writing this, have I realised we didn't have (or need) deserts!
The evening was fantastic and far exceeded our expectations. I would heartily recommend this gem of a restaurant. I fully expect to book again as and when we are local. Thank you.

Lovely restaurant, although there is not much choice on the menu that is the whole idea, you cook your own steak on your table on a hot stone(it's very easy), I opted for chicken breasts in creamy mushroom sauce(they cooked that!),very tasty, the chips, rice,beans and coleslaw which came with the meals was all good too. The staff are all friendly and attentive, we were served by Tania and Fernando (or Feanando,not sure) who helped make the occasion more special. The atmosphere on the Friday evening when we ate here was vibrant, helped by the Latino music. Prices fair too. I would definitely recommend Cheers restaurant.

I'm really sorry for saying this but we ordered the special 3 burgers for ÂŁ22
The burgers tasted great but we're very small, soggy bun and the fries tasted like old oil.
I love this restaurant and go at least once a month. These burgers are not good value for money
Also came in polystyrene containers so extremely bad for the environment.
We are all still hungry. Sorry, I love the staff but so disappointed.

Visited Cheers restaurant in Thetford last night. Was served by the lovely Inis and the very charming owner Mario. Wow, where to start... What an absolutely amazing dining experience. The food was a gastronomic delight. I had the Mussel meat starter, which was a generous portion of fresh shell-less mussels cooked in a delicious sauce of white wine, olive oil & spiced ginger. My wife’s starter was the creamed shellfish soup served with croutons, it was equally as tasty as mine. For our mains I had the seasoned 12 oz Sirloin steak, which I cooked on a stone myself, it came with crispy fries, white rice and black beans with chorizo. 10/10, was so plentiful I couldn’t finish the fries. My wife had the Sea bass fillet served with new potatoes and spinach, topped with butter sauce. She commented it was the nicest fish dish she’s ever eaten... We genuinely can’t recommend this place enough, the atmosphere was lovely, the staff were polite and charming and service was top draw, My wife has a food allergy which they dealt with in a very professional knowledgeable manner, with no fuss, leaving us very reassured. The food was plentiful and delicious and great value for money. We were made to feel so welcome and will definitely be regular customers from now on. Try it, we promise you won’t be disappointed.

We visited this restaurant for the first time last night and will definitely be going back. The food was great and the hot stone meant my food was not only cooked how I like it but was hot through out the meal instead of just when it arrived. It was really fun to cook our own. Jessica our waitress was really friendly and attentive. My only comment on improvement would be to have some salad or veg available.

Went here on a Wednesday night with a colleague. The meal was fantastic. I'm still don't believe how good it was and or even how they do this deal! Unlimited steak!! Yes you did read it correctly, unlimited steak! They bring out plates of steak which you cook to your liking. We had Jessica as our waitress and she was brillant. I cannot speak highly of the service. All the waitress are really attentive, you have barley finished a plate and they bring you another one or ask if you want any more drinks. Speaking of drinking, once again unlimited sangria/wine/soft drinks. If you are anywhere near the area you have to come here!

This restaurant is a all you can eat buffet. While you are still eating you get free alcohol drinks. There is large choice of options. There also is a large seating area (inside only) the waiters are very fast and helpful the food is excellent. You can even cook your own meat. The food that you order is ready really fast but yet still tastes great. The facilities are great.

We living next to this place since one year and we were pasing it so many times but we never been here before. But after me and my girlfriend pop round here last Monday we were really impressed. We thought it's another steak place but not it's something completly different :D When you walk inside you can feel like you are at holiday. Our waiter Paulo can make feel us like we are in Portugal or even better. The food they serving is top quality and what is the best, thats unlimited <sic>. Eat as much steaks you can and I have even better news. They have best red wine I ever drinked and you also can drink it as much you can. And with Paulo you can feel there better than home. And belive me, you not gonna get better food, drink and atmosphere nowhere in Thetford. Pirices are also unbeatable especially with "Eat out to Help Out" scheme. Instead of pay 50ÂŁ we paid 30ÂŁ which is bargain for top quality, unlimited food and wine. Anyway even without this offer thats place is worth visit. Straigt away We booked table for next Saturday and We'll bring couple of our friends because more poples should enjoy this place! See you next saturday, see you there Paulo :D

Me and my partner called to booked a table with very short notice and was accommodated for within half hour. Our waiter Gabriel was amazing! He was very attentive to our needs and polite even though the restaurant was very busy, regularly asking if we needed more steak or drinks.
Service was 10/10, and the food was also amazing, highly recommend!

A brilliant time had by all. Service was fantastic, Gemma was very attentive and took good care of us. To bring us steak for our toddler that didn’t have pepper on was very thoughtful. She couldn’t have been kinder to us. My mother in law says she truly deserves a pay rise!!
Felt very safe with the COVID measures in place. The food was exquisite as always. Will definitely be back!

I WISH we would’ve come here first over the one in Bury last year.
Cheers in Thetford has the best service, is clean, and has a large space.
Gabriel F was truly amazing! Our drinks were always full, steak plates filled AND he did a great job with the little ones. We were a party of 10 with 4 kids 10 or under. We will be coming back for sure.
*One in our party has Celiacs and she was able to eat well.

We’ve visited the Bury St Edmunds restaurant a few times now, but this was our first time visiting Thetford and we we’re definitely impressed! Everyone was really friendly and helpful, and the food was delivered quickly and tasted delicious! We were served by Gemma who was really lovely and very attentive, and nothing was too much for her. Definitely a credit to the team. Thank you!

I have just been to Cheers for the first time having been recommended by a friend and it certainly did not disappoint. Our server Jessica was lovely, very friendly and helpful. My mum and I both had the fillet steak on the stone and it was gorgeous. The steak was excellent quality and the rice and chips hot and fresh. I would definitely recommend on the basis of this visit and look forward to returning in the future.
