Duchies in Waveney

Just having coffee and cake orange drizzle cake (absolutely delicious) And lovely friendly staff Highly recommend will definitely be back

Lovely cafe, dog friendly, staff couldn’t be lovelier especially Chelle. Avocado breakfast a winner. Highly recommended.

Really friendly and efficient cafe with delicious breakfast, brunch, lunch options and home made cakes. I’ve been a few times this week and it has the vibe of a family run place. Michelle and Chelsea are super-friendly in particular!

Came here for breakfast on holiday. Can honestly say it was the best breakfast I’ve ever had!! All had full English and I had halloumi on the side. AMAZING!

Clearly a very popular cafe we had lovely flavoursome freshmade breakfast baps and very good coffee it took ages to get served on a busy morning but we weren't in a hurry and didn't mind lovely friendly staff

The restaurant is absolutely lovely and has a cosy atmosphere, the staff are so kind and happy and the food is delicious! We always go and eat there when visiting Southwold. Whether it be breakfast or dinner, I would definitely recommend going to Duchies!

Cold due to the ac being on full blast. Waitress had to take drinks order first and could not deal with us selecting food and drinks at the same time 🧐 Got the order wrong. Asked for granary bread and got white. Expected sourdough to be available ? The big surprise was! Half a tomato was £1.50 !!!!!! Everything was overwhelming and overpriced .

For breakfast in Southwold, you can do much better than this, and especially at the top-whack price of £13.95. Only one sausage & two very small rashers of bacon, and not of any real quailty. Quite a long wait even though not full, very young staff, who I think are still learning - and they aren’t in any rush. Three out of five is generous, actually.

Lovely place for breakfast - eggs all cooked perfectly, beans in a pot, v nice black pudding. Prices ok for Southwold. Will come back.

A really lovely cafe/deli in Southwold. Had a delicious lunch of Eggs Forestiere (that's a poached egg on a field mushroom on a muffin) and a ham and cheese toastie. Really tasty and good value. But, the table next to us had ham, egg and chips and it looked utterly AMAZING!!! and loads of it! If we revisit later in the week we will definitely have that :) Will revisit and do recommend

Excellent service,amazing food.We all enjoyed ourselves.Our second visit for Christmas get together.We will be back I am sure

Went for cooked fling ish and was excellent. Could even swap out the black pudding for an extra sausage. Also choice of granary or white bread🥳. Dogs also allowed if your wondering.

Great breakfast, in fact possibly the best I’ve ever had in a cafe. Everything was cooked perfectly and the drinks were nice too.

Greeted by a very friendly lad, coffee and breakfasts all delicious! Highly recommended for breakfast/brunch in Southwold!

Wonderful cafe-great food, perfectly cooked, friendly staff :) Enjoyed my trip, thank you :) Would definitely like to visit again 👍👍👍

We searched and searched all the pubs, cafes and restaurants for a baked potato! We found one here at Duchies! It was brilliant! Sometimes all you need is a baked potato and this is the place to go! We also had very tasty panini and amazing coffee! The service was very good and friendly. Highly recommend.

Wandered around looking for breakfast at half eightish , no where open apart from duchies . So glad we went here ! Delicious breakfast , friendly welcome , excellent value !

Popped in just passing by to ask if we could bring our dog in. Such a lovely friendly owner said of course. We all came back next day and she remembered us (truly customer friendly) and thanked me for coming back. Sweet lovely lady. Had a fantastic breakfast and drinks. Lovely place

Popped in after a disappointing time at another cafe. The ladies in here then proceeded to make us feel so comfortable as well as making the best Chai latte we had ever had! They were accomodating to changes in milk and let us try it to check it was how we wanted it. Top quality service and such a delicious drink. Thank you so much, sure we will be back again soon.

In Southwold for the day so popped in for some sandwiches to eat in a shady place on a scorching day. We had the Smoked Salmon & Cream Cheese and a Prawn. Both fresh and tasty. Great place for a tasty take out .

A bit if of a hidden gem in Southwold. Friendly excellent service, good quality fresh food, and cakes that are simply delicious.

Everyone was so helpful, they were able to adapt the menu to help with my food intolerances, this was much appreciated. Nothing was too much trouble.

This is such a great dog friendly cafe .The staff are fantastic and the food is always outstanding . Highly recommended.

I have called here several times and got a take away coffee when in Southwold on business - the coffee is good. However I have tried eating here on 2 occasions recently once on a bank holiday Monday in early May at 3.20pm and again on Sunday 4th May at 2.30pm on both occasions I was told they were closed - this time I was told they closed at 2pm on a Sunday. Southwold on a busy Sunday afternoon and closed at 2pm - sorry but why! Is it just Southwold? I know places usually close around 4pm on a Sunday and I was prepared for that but was hoping to get a coffee/drink and a meal. Having tried twice now and in an effort to support an independant I have now given up on Duchies - I took a walk to Gunn Hill and had my food and drink there and will continue to do so

Just been to supper club at Duchies. Lovely food and great service. Would thoroughly recommend it as a delicious, friendly, fun and unpretentious place to have dinner. Perfect for the whole family and the BYO policy makes it great value.

All the normal quality cafe foods - plus really good vegan & vegetarian food. Generous portions, good kitchen craft and presentation. I would recommend for all!
