Stumbled upon the Dolphin and stopped for a cheeky beer, a welcome break and a pleasant brew was had by one and all.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Dolphin Inn. Our room was very pretty, quiet and cosy, and well equipped with a lovely bathroom too. We had dinner twice during our stay, and the food was excellent, l can recommend the Cromer crab! Breakfast was also delicious. The staff were so friendly and efficient and knowledgeable about the local area. A great location if you enjoy walking, and a good base to explore other places of interest too.

The restaurant is clearly popular. The service was very good. The place was welcoming. Overall the food portions were a bit large and we wished that the cooking was more consistent. Some food was good but some average and below. My hamburger was very good. My wife's brill was just OK but the samphire was well cooked and tasty. The other couple felt the same. Their boiled potatoes were overcooked. The meat pie was quite good but the massive accompaniment was not so nice. Adams Southwold bitter is lovely. We would come again as we felt the cooking is usually better.

Had a lovely stay at the Dolphin with a large comfortable room and quality food. As with any pub you expect noise until closing but it wasn't a problem even for ourselves that live in a quiet area. After closing it was very peaceful and a good night sleep was had. With only 3 rooms it is a very personal service which was nice.

Amazing lunch and excellent service (Maddie) Warm welcome , log fire . Specials board , Excellent choice of starters ,We ordered grilled Sardines x3 , Chicken liver pate , and beetroot tart . Mains x5 . Amazing pork belly , brill , fish pie , duck , celeriac and potato gratin . All very generous portions with seasonal vegetables , highly recommended you won’t be disappointed! . Too full for puddings , but the stout cake was tempting.

Booked a table for 5 & we could only be fitted in at 2:30pm. We were staying in Aldeburgh & walked along beach to pub. Perfect spot in a stunning location. The pub was packed. We all had a roast & desert option for £19.95 Good choice for veggies. Food was served promptly & was delicious. My only criticism would be “can I have a bit more veg” ? Well worth a visit - definitely book & we would 100% go again. 😃

On a day trip to Thorpeness in June 2023 and I had already looked online and read good reviews about the Dolphin. Walked in at lunchtime, had not booked, and was greeted and offered a choice of where to sit ( we wanted to sit inside) and had a table for two in a quiet part of the restaurant. There is another area which looks out on to the gardens but that area was busy and noisy so we were very pleased with our table location. Now on to the food : the waitress that came to our table was very friendly and we chose to have the Dolphin’s deal of two steaks and two glasses of house wine at an inclusive price. Wife asked for a glass of water as well and we were promptly brought a bottle of chilled water which we enjoyed with the food and the wine. Although it was a ‘house’ red wine we both thoroughly enjoyed it. Shame it was the middle of the day and driving otherwise another glass would have been ordered ! Two steaks duly arrived with gorgeous chips and a flavourful mixed salad. My steak was perfectly cooked medium and my wife was delighted with her medium-to-well done. You might be bored by now, reading this lengthy review but when a pub/restaurant provides such good food with excellent service they deserve to receive a good review. Well done to the chef and waitresses at The Dolphin. Wish I lived closer and could visit again.

We asked to eat outside in early evening as still being cautious but they were also fully booked inside and it was no problem. On ordering drinks and food, staff were both friendly and accommodating. We were told they were starting a new menu today and we were impressed with the choices..lots of fish and veggie options which worked for me but my husband was happy with the options too. I had skate wing with apple, green beans, potatoes, capers and parsley...the fish was cooked perfectly and flavours delicate and beautiful. My husband had a pork dish with noodles, pak choi and other vegetables and he said the dish was delicious also. We'd thankfully spotted the desserts so had laid off the starters to leave room. We had sticky date pudding with salted caramel ice cream and a rich chocolate pudding with black cherry ice cream and candied orange peel. Again amazing flavours and despite the fast fading daylight, we had no problem finding our food!The lady came to collect our empty dishes and checked in with us how we got in with the new dishes, so we were able to give excellent feedback. Based on today's experience, we are more than happy to return and sample more of the dishes and hospitality. Thank you to The Dolphin for helping us to have our first 'special meal out in 18 months...see you soon!

Food was very good. Quick to come out and tasted very nice (roast dinner). I must say the service from the younger members of the team was impeccable. I could not fault it. However we had a more mature gentleman that came over to take out desert order who we found extremely down beat and miserable. It spoiled the overall service of the evening. I’m so glad to see the younger generation is keeping the restaurant industry alive.

To sit in the garden of the Dolphin and enjoy coffee, somthing stronger or the great range of food is a delight. staff are friendly and the service is excellent. They had the Covid procedures well planned. If you want to eat inside - book ahead and remember this is a picturesque village and very popular os the pub does get busy - expect to queue a little time. But it is worth it.

Second visit, impressed both times. Food is very good, service amazing, always seems full Yet food arrives piping hot and speedily. Rare to find a place like this these days. You have a dog friendly room and non dog, the latter is my choice as I still feel dogs should not be allowed in any place where food is served, but a minor point. I did not stay at The Dolphin, my review is of the restaurant. I hear the three bedrooms are very nice.

Nice pub in a lovely area. Staff friendly and helpful but my tai vegetable curry was inedible. It was a bowl of barely cooked chunky vegetables in an unseasoned soup. The rice was also not seasoned and left a bitter aftertaste. Having said that after calling the waitress to say I couldn't eat it she immediately apologised and I ordered a sandwich which was lovely and fresh. I wasn't charged for this so all good in the end.
