Student Life in Norwich

The Norman Cathedral is a must-see as it is one of the finest examples of Romanesque architecture in Europe. You can tour the Norman Norwich Castle which is an eclectic mix of natural history, archaeology and fine art.

Parks and picnic: On a sunny day you could gather some friends and head to the Plantation Garden.
Shopping: If you want to do some shopping; the ‘Castle Mall’ and ‘into Chapelfield’ offer all kinds of names in brands and everything else you need. Norwich Lanes cannot be missed out on since it has vintage shops, quaint cafes & bars, galleries, trendy restaurants as well as entertainment venues; you can literally spend an entire day here and not run out of things to do! If you want to stack up your fridge with some fresh local produce and if you fancy craft and food stalls, head straight to the Norwich Market Stalls at Gentleman’s Walk.

Live Performance: The music scene in Norwich is huge and you will always hear of gigs and concerts happening in the city all year round! OPEN Norwich, The Brickmakers and The Waterfront are excellent venues for the same. If you want an evening of theatre, comedy or performing arts, you can check out what’s playing at Norwich Arts Centre and Norwich Theatre Royal.

Restaurants, Cafes and Bars: Students in Norwich enjoy a vibrant nightlife with quite a decent range of nightclubs and bars. If you feel like letting your hair loose and showing off some dance moves; clubs Mantra and Mercy top the list followed by Bedfords Crypt and Karma Kafe. If having a quiet drink in the company of a few friends is more your thing, then you will be happy to know that there is an abundance of pubs; so much so, there is literally a pub for every day of the year! We recommend The Mischief and Playhouse Bar.
