Harbourside Kitchen in Suffolk Coastal

Went with two young grandchildren having booked to take advantage of kids eat free. Shown to our table and all seemed well. The restaurant was filling up and reasonably busy for a Wednesday lunchtime but it took an age to get menus and then longer to order our meal. The food came relatively quickly and to be fair was very nice. Having eaten our main course we wanted to order a dessert and the waiter did not come to us. Had to Go and find him and it still took a ridiculous amount of time for the order to be taken. Again the food was ok but you can’t mess up ice cream. Having said that ours were vanilla ice cream with a splodge of whipped cream and three tinned strawberries. I spoke to the waiter, the only one showing people to tables, getting drinks, taking orders serving meals and clearing away. He stated that he was on his own due to staff sickness. However Prezzo, if you are going to offer free kids meals you must understand that kids are not patient when it comes to waiting for food so you need to plan better. This is the second time we have been here and the second time staff shortages have ruined the experience. We were in there two hours for a two course meal.

Poor. We arrived at the start of the day with few other customers. I had the full English which looked picture perfect. However, it was largely cold, especially the beans which I didn't eat. The sourdough toast was so thin it tastes and looked like a flatter Ryvita wafer. I would not recommend this as a destination for breakfast and won't be returning.

Very disappointed with the sandwiches, bread was very dry and the smoked salmon bagel was frozen! BLT contains cold bacon rashers. All in all - an expensive, disappointing lunch. Will not frequent the cafe again .

Have given this place a miss in the pass few months due to dried out chips. Popped round this evening for a battered sausage. Arrived just before 8:30 pm and found they were closed despite a large sign saying 9:00 closing. What's the point of having the sign. Guess I was spared from another disappointment.

A nice restaurant with Mediterranean tendencies and an ok atmosphere I recommend it to tourists who want to have a Mediterranean-style meal I do not recommend to those who are really Mediterranean (Italian ) Plates and taste at a good level So recommended for those on vacation
