Abigail's Buttery in Suffolk Coastal

Called in for a meal here on a week night. We were told to book, but really didn't need to as there were only 6 other people in at the time we were there. The food was excellent, as was the service, but the room we ate in was very tired and in need of refurbishment. That said, we would return for the good food.

Over priced food, cold, had soup and did not enjoy it. Didn't like the room either, seems very tired.

My family 7 adults and 4 children had a delicious lunch on Saturday in gorgeous surroundings with the added fun of an open fire. The staff were friendly and the food was second to none. The chef made a cake for my husbands birthday which was gorgeous.

Debe ser inaugurada recientemente, metimos en con la esposa de un desayuno recién preparado, tuve la tradicional inglés, freír la tortilla de mi esposa. Ambos excelentes, ordenadas y como ventaja para Hamilton Road.

After sitting in the buttery (as we have many times before) were quizzed as to whether we had booked (it was totally empty), or whether we were hotel guests as they weren't serving "walk ins" because it had been a busy day. After we offered to leave, they relented and did serve an excellent supper... but need to improve their customer service.

I often visit Felixstowe and stay at the Orwell hotel.Abigail's Buttery situated in the hotel offers a good,well balanced menu.My wife and I have dined here several times and the food has always been well cooked and served by attentive staff.There is a choice to suit all tastes and the ambience is quiet and tasteful.Non residents can dine here and considering the choice available in Felixstowe this is an excellent venue.

excellent food and great service with attentive staff. would recommend highly. it was a quirky hotel with all the niggles but overall an enjoyable stay

We were staying at the Orwell hotel on our annual pilgrimage to family in Felixstowe, and thought after the fantastic meal we had last year, we would eat in Abigail's Buttery again, as it has one of the most fantastic restaurant interiors in the country, with original wall to wall carved wood paneling. We pre-booked a particular table in the restaurant, and within 10 minutes of our arrival, the restaurant manager lit a fire for us in the large original fore place. Two course evening meal for £12, and two course children's meal for £6.95 - so reasonably priced. The salmon moose was OK. However, when I asked for a medium-welldone steak, it came back rather underdone, almost rare. For a chef in a quality restaurant, this is unacceptable. The chips were well cooked and perfectly acceptable. The kids had ordered desserts, but didn't have space, so I ate my son's Eton Mess, which I must say was the highlight of an otherwise average meal. The only real down-side to the restaurant are the gent's toilets - they are located on the otherside of the ground floor of the hotel - so a rather long walk! A wonderfull restaurant - though the chef's need re-training on how to cook!

I had no idea such a beautiful interior awaited us in Abigail's Buttery at The Orwell Hotel in Felixstowe. The food was very good and the presentation was second to none. We all chose from the set menu but a la carte was also available. Service was attentive and professional. This certainly is a hidden gem and we will definitely return.

If you are looking for somewhere different to try I can highly recommend Abigail,s. The food is excellent & reasonably priced.

Good choice of starters, main courses and desserts and two courses for £10.00. Tablecloths and a small vase of flowers makes this a lovely place for special occasions and the service was excellent as well.

This restaurant is in 'The Orwell Hotel' it has an express luncheon menu which is served 12-7pm daily 2 courses £10 3 courses £13 absolutely fabulous food, Felixstowe s best kept secret !!

it is amaizing for how much money you can eat in this fantastic hotel !!!! the bargain menu during the week is fantastic !!!! I have been last week with my mum and a friend of us and we loved it !!! thank you very much !!!

We enjoyed the 3 course lunch which we thought good value. However the restaurant, like the hotel needs doing up. The drinks I thought a bit on the dear side.

Lovely relaxed casual dining serving great food, the food we had was cooked to perfection, we'll defiantly be visiting again...

We went for a family members birthday and was the third time we have eaten there, well it's got worse and worse. It was a Sunday, so there was a roast on the menu but several of us decided to have something else, we plumped for two courses at £17 each, my wife had a starter which consisted of a small piece of mozzarella, one tomato and a bit of greenery and no dressing, she did have the roast, and all the Yorkshire puddings on offer were burnt. That was just one meal out of six and none of the other we're much better, we al had an hours wait between courses. The only reason I've given two stars is because the staff were really nice and helpful, just a shame everything else was sub standard.
