A raft of new shops and cafes have opened in Norwich in recent weeks.

This means that slowly but surely, the empty holes left in the high street by the pandemic are being filled.

Here are all the new places and faces to look out for when out and about in the Fine City.

The owners of Boom Battle Bar are expanding their Castle Quarter attractions, opening Putt Noodle in the former New Look store.

The crazy golf site will have three nine-hole courses.

One of the courses has an Asia theme, featuring a Cambodian bamboo jungle and the Great Wall of China. There will be a menu of Asian-inspired dishes and a full bar.

H&M has opened a new home store in the old Game location in Chantry Place.

The store is connected to the larger H&M shop, with both external and internal doors for access.

A new branch of Moorish Falafel Bar has also recently opened in the Golden Triangle.

It opened in the place of the Old Cobblers juice bar.

The new bar is going for a "very different vibe" to the city centre site in Lower Goat Lane, with an alcohol license and collaborations with local businesses like Strangers' Coffee.
