Bars and Pubs

Conveniently, everything you'll need for a great hen night in Norwich lies along the Prince of Wales Road near to the station. There's a good selection of bars and pubs to suit all tastes and pockets, as the constant stream of ever-thirsty students from nearby UEA means that costs stay down around town, but more mature residents of well-heeled Norwich make sure that there are plenty of stylish bars on offer too. For something a little different, try music inspired Comfortably Numb or Chicago Rock Café for an American themed night of yummy cocktails, gut-busting treats, karaoke and even live tunes. Pitcher and Piano is perfect for cocktails in a relaxed and pleasant setting and lively Bar X is guaranteed to get the night off to a good start. Take a stroll down St. George's Street for a couple of chilled out wine bars, a little further away from the main party drag on Prince of Wales Road.

Nightfall in Norwich

Luckily, the cultural scene in Norwich is alive and kicking, so if you're not a fan of crowded pubs and clubs, there are many activities to get up to in the evening. The Theatre Royal offers everything from traditional pantomimes to world-class opera and ballet in a swanky, uber-modern setting, or for the complete opposite, catch many touring shows in the Maddermarket Theatre, a traditional Elizabethan venue. Don't forget to check out stunning Norwich cathedral at night too - the 900-year-old Norman cathedral along with its resident spooky, creeping skeleton carving, is certainly not to be missed and it looks absolutely stunning lit up by the twilight.

Handily, the city centre of Norwich is small and flat, so you'll be able to get about easily on foot when you want to hop between bars, pubs and clubs at night. If you're wearing a pair of ridiculously high heels, don't worry - reasonably priced black cabs are not difficult to find and will drop you off right where you need to be. Give one of GoHen's trusted firms a bell and get into the centre for under a fiver each when your taxi is full.
