Bookbugs and Dragon Tales

the hot chocolate here gets brought up a lot, and for good reason. bookbugs and dragon tales sits on timber hill, which is one of those norwich streets that's been around long enough to have a personality of its own, and the shop fits into it without trying too hard. you won't feel rushed. the place has built a genuinely loyal following, the kind that takes time and consistency to earn, not a single good week. if you're stopping in on a cold afternoon, the hot chocolate is the move, but the coffee draws people back just as reliably. timber hill is walkable from the market, so it slots neatly into a longer wander through the city. worth timing your visit for a quieter mid-morning slot if you can.
