Disappointed with some of the food but after I pointed out the chicken ribs were over cooked all I got was an empty apology and a “I’ll pass it on”. I spent nearly £500 there with my colleagues and because they offer nothing to make up for the poor food I will not book again.

Had Sunday lunch for the second time. Would highly recommend it. Friendly and attentive service that made you feel very welcome and comfortable. Food was absolutely delicious and as for the cauliflower cheese, no lack of cheese, we joked with the staff that we could do with a pair of scissors to help with serving it onto our plate. Large plates with large servings at a reasonable price and lots of choice.

Popped in just now for what on previous visits was a nice dining experience. However... this is not the case this evening. 5/7/24. So I spent the best part of £50 on two meals, a sirloin steak and a pulled pork burrito.The later was inedible, disgusting, smelt off.

Visited as we had a menu come through the door offering 5% or 10% during June depending on time of meal. Our leaflet said that we would be entitled a free loyalty card, valid for 12 months but there was no mention of it as as I wasn't feeling 100%, I was just happy to pay our bill as food was nice and we may not return for a long time anyway. Pub is lovely, inside and out and is on a couple of bus routes from Colchester with stops directly outside. It has a cosy interior around the old part of pub with a lovely bright extension and outside area with several more tables. Staff were very attentive and friendly. Food was well presented. I had the duck roll with hoisin sauce and sausage and mash. I was looking forward to the teriyaki salmon but it finished just as I was about to order.

Service here was really good and unfaltering but unfortunately the food wasn't that great if I'm honest. I broke my rule of not having a roast dinner out because it never compares to one made at home. It was a busy sitting and maybe they had a off day in the kitchen.

Popped in on the way back from Ipswich as I'd heard good things so thought I'd give it a go and I wasn't disappointed. I chose the three course option for £25.50. Really well cooked and presented, lovely staff and a cracking pint of ale to go with it. The place is really well laid out with masses of space and the option to eat and drink outside with the tables having large umbrellas too. Plenty of parking, nice quiet setting, tastefully decorated, well definitely be back.

This review is in answer to the response from the owner to my wife’s negative but fair review of this establishment. Just for clarity, my wife is a trained chef so she does know what she’s talking about. 1. At no point were we asked if we had enjoyed our meals as intimated in the owners response. 2. The loaded fries have indeed received lots of similar negative comments, clearly visible on Google reviews. There was also absolutely not an option to choose toppings. 3. The steak bruschetta was indeed spicy. Not a problem for us but not mentioned on the menu. 4. The hummus was salty and inedible. 5. The waiting staff were not overly cheerful and a bit disinterested. We had to wait a fair while for our bill but still gave 10% gratuity. I have no idea why to be honest. The correct response from the owner should be: Please come back and we’ll try again to cook better food and make things better. We would happily have paid for this. Rather than, yeah well, best you don’t come back! Rude. Just plain rude. If everyone just posts positive comments, how is a business supposed to improve when it clearly needs to? Edit: Please don’t accuse me of lying. At NO point were we asked if we enjoyed the meal. We were ready with constructive criticism but weren’t asked. The food isn’t the real issue here, it’s your attitude. As you’ve said to another dissatisfied customer, take it on the chin and strive to improve. The gratuity was given purely for the waiting staff, we’re aware that gratuities are a significant portion of their income, that’s all.

Sadly, we had a really disappointing lunch today. After ordering the sesame prawn toast; we were told that we couldn't have this as the kitchen were having problems making it and couldn't keep it together when cooking it (if you can't make it - take it off the menu!!); the loaded fries were covered in a liquidy, over-processed yellow cheese sauce (should be a melted, mature cheddar) with very little loaded onto them apart from a few pieces of bacon and spring onions, the hummus was inedible (more like a salty, garlic dip) and the steak bruschetta had a spice to it that wasn't described on the menu. It's such a shame as we were hoping to find a lovely country pub to enjoy a bank holiday lunch at. Won't be returning sadly.

Has a disappointing lunch experience there yesterday, with the following issues: 1. I had noted in the booking that we were celebrating my Mum's birthday and this was not acknowledged in any way. Having owned a restaurant, I know how cheap and easy it is to do or even just say something for someone's special occasion, and the difference it can make. 2. It was only when we ordered our food that we were told that the pork hadn't yet been delivered for the day. This information should have been shared as soon as we were given our menus to avoid disappointment. 3. The loaded fries I had as a starter just had a bland 'cheese sauce' on top. Loaded fries should be smothered in a mature cheddar and this seemed quite lazy considering the margin that would still exist on such a dish, even using real cheese. 4. The four cheese pizza I ordered was almost certainly a margarita. Firstly, it had a tomato base, which I've never experienced with countless other four cheese pizzas. Secondly, although there was a lot of cheese on the pizza, it didn't taste like there was more than one, and that a bland cheddar. I would usually mention such issues as they arise, but I just wanted to have a good time with Mum, hence the feedback here. In the pub's favour, they do a good job of hosting my monthly book club and take American Express. The duck spring roll starter was also an excellent dish, according to my Mum. Turn up another day and/or order different dishes and you may well have a five star experience.

We had a party of six, we have eaten here before for breakfast which was lovely, but our roast dinner today was very disappointing, although everything was there it was just all really cold! The potatoes were the weirdest thing I've ever tasted, the cauliflower cheese was swimming in water not cheese! We told the waitress who didn't really seem interested!. Unfortunately sorry to say we won't be back for roasts again, and at £160 a little steep!!..

Mediocre Sunday roast. I had the veggie roast as don’t eat meat, basically like stuffing with a few carrots. Felt like one of those cheap mixes. Tasteless gravy and roasted veg had no flavour. Fed up with the fact that many pub restaurants feel they can serve vegetarians a poor alternative without taste or imagination. My husband said the meat was bland. The conservatory at the back was tacky with plastic foliage and was basically a shed, although the main pub was cozy We won’t visit again.

Had high expectations for this pub as we called in just for a drink but saw that almost all the tables in 3 different dining rooms were all reserved. Thinking that 'it must be good' if so many people have pre booked for Sunday lunch. We had breakfast as it was still morning. Good points: The breakfast menu had many excellent choices. The pub/restaurant/ toilets were very clean. Bad points: A nice friendly smile from the staff & management wouldn't go a miss. Definitely need to look at better customer service. Bacon, sausage and hass browns very over cooked (infact inedible) Will we return? Possibly 6/10

Booked a table for 8 and on arrival was shown to the conservatory area which is nicely laid out. However it is heated by a central wood burner which is terribly sealed. The room is heavy in wood smoke fumes. So with a pregnant daughter plus Grandson and knowing the harmful effects of wood smoke I asked for another table. This was accommodated by moving us to the front restaurant area. We were all pleased with the meal and service but next time will specially ask to seated away from the conservatory.

Visited yesterday evening for a Sunday roast which I had been looking forward to all week having heard good things - the worst roast I have ever had. Turned up with what looked like a dog hair on my beef (unfortunately I couldn't say anything as our friend had suggested the pub and I didn't want to make him feel uncomfortable by complaining straight away), the red cabbage was completely dried out and not even purple anymore, roast potatoes were shrivelled up and just filled with air, the "cauliflower cheese" was literally just cauliflower with melted mozzarella on the top and the Yorkshire pudding was so overdone and dry. How the chef looked at the plates and thought they were good enough to serve I don't know.

Had Lunch here today 18/08/23 four of us, very disappointing I ordered Haddock & Chips special of the day The fish was covered in a thick crisp over cooked dark batter which completely overwhelmed the fish and was inedible. Mine was the worst, my friends eat theirs but did not think it was very good. When the dishes were cleared the lady asked what was wrong with my meal and I explained the aforementioned, to which she replied she would inform the chef. When I went to pay the bill the credit card machine asks if I would like to leave a tip, which in view of the meal I had, I declined. I commented that I was surprised to even be charged for the meal. I was told I was being charged for the meal as I had not complained earlier and therefore it was my fault. They could have corrected it had I complained earlier. Fair comment. However, they were not in the least bit concerned that they had served poor food, and I their customer, had a poor experience at their restaurant. Sorry cant recommend.

Nice quirky country pub, a little cold in the evening but they have a nice open fire. Good selection of food, though service was very very slow - we arrived on the earlier side of the evening, and they weren’t super busy, but still had to wait for over half an hour for our food… Food was good, not cheapest (both main and dessert).

Classic Suffolk pub, great for tourists and locals alike. Amazing views of the unique Suffolk coast. Perfect for a pub stroll or spotting nature (saw a deer last time we came). The food is fresh, local, British (mostly) and amazing. Well cooked and served by friendly servers. There is an excellent range of proper beer, wine etc. And it's great for kids as there's a beach out the front!
