Jimmy's Farm Restaurant in Babergh

Booking is essential. Staff are lovely. Service slow. Food very big portions. Good variety of gluten-free and other allergies options. The small bites are very large 4 pieces of garlic bread. Ploughman's freshly cut thick ham. Unfortunately, the gluten-free bread was very stale. Herb butter was really nice. Cheese was really nice Big portion of salad. The turkey sandwich fresh and full of filling.

Nice setting friendly welcome. Portions are generous, whatever other comments say. My partner ordered a number nibbles. These were each a serving bigger than normal sides. Cheesey chibata 4 large slices , pork belly cubes with apple sauce and Fries. Would have served the three of us. The ploughman's was really big with a good amount of thick cut ham cheddar pickles and salad. Nice size. The only downside was the stale gluten-free bread.the turkey and bacon chibata was really good. Service was a little slow, and getting the bill was not as simple as should have been

I am writing to express my extreme disappointment with the experience my party and I had at your restaurant for a birthday event on the 20th of October, 2024. We had a party of 12 guests for a Sunday lunch, and unfortunately, the experience was far from satisfactory. Ten of us ordered the beef roast, only to find that 7 of the meals were cold and undercooked. While I do appreciate rare beef, this was beyond what anyone at the table found acceptable. The manager acknowledged the issue and apologised, but unfortunately, the replacement meals that were brought out were also cold and now overcooked. To make matters worse, two of our guests did not receive their orders until after everyone else had finished their meals. One of our party members ultimately chose not to eat at all, as they did not want to dine alone after receiving their cold meal 30 minutes later than the rest of the group. While we were promptly refunded for the food and the birthday cake we had provided was served, the overall experience left a sour taste in our mouths. Unfortunately, due to this very poor experience, we have decided that we will not be returning to your establishment in the future. I hope this feedback is taken constructively and helps improve the service at your restaurant for future guests. Thank you for your attention to this matter. Update After nearly two weeks there still hasn’t been any apology or contact from the management at Jimmys farm regarding our complaint.

We visited around 12.30 on a Saturday afternoon in October. The restaurant was fully booked, but luckily there were tables available outside. You order at the bar, then the food is brought over. Really fast service, we had a lattes and shared Cheddar Straws £5.50, Olives £4, and Pork Belly Bites with Apple Sauce £6.50. (Pictured) The lattes were £4.45 each, what a rip off! Small and not that great. Clearly just from a basic coffee machine! If you wanted to add a syrup, that would be an additional £1.50! Insane! Most coffee shops charge an extra 50p for syrup. Cheddar Straws were great and still warm. You get 3 with a pot of mustard pickle. Olives were great, they included garlic and sun-dried tomato. Large portion, we weren’t given cocktail sticks though. The pork belly with apple sauce was delicious. Although made me wonder if it was a pig from the farm. I couldn’t see sausage rolls on the menu, but was told they were sold out. A friendly host and great waitresses and waiters. I’d visit again for food, but not for an over priced machine latte! I’d recommend booking 😊 Oh and if your an annual pass holder for the farm, you get 10% off in here.

We enjoyed a later lunch after visiting the wildlife park. We hadn’t booked in advance and noted that a sign read they were fully booked for indoor seating however it was a lovely sunny day so we got a table outside and ordered from the bar. Drinks and food service was prompt which was surprising given how busy they were. We ordered the ploughman’s and sides of pork belly bites and honey and mustard sausages. The food was excellent. All elements were of top quality and very reasonable prices.

What amazing place to stop and grab something to eat. The food is on the higher price but the quality of the food was amazing. I can’t stop thinking about after I finish and I like to help local places out over bigger chains. Would I return again for lunch or dinner ? 100% I would

Other than waiting half an hour for a kids burger and chips was alright

Went for lunch. Ordered at 1:30pm. By 2:00pm nothing had come so we checked, and were assured it would be on the way soon. By 2:15pm half of the food arrived. By 2:30pm the rest had still not arrived, so went to find out what had happened. It came 10 mins later but was missing ribs. Pointed out ribs were missing, and some then came out but not in the bbq sauce and fridge cold in the middle while warm on the outside, like they’d been placed briefly on a grill to warm up. One of the portions of fries had a hair in it. Really extremely disappointing. Told the staff, and received a refund and apologies but well below par. Won’t be going back. Just hoping I don’t get food poisoning from the cold-in-the-middle ribs.

Booked a table in advance as recommended for 1pm. Got seated quickly, restaurant didn’t look too busy, certainly a fair few empty tables. No one had been to get drinks orders after 20 mins so had to go find one of the waiting staff. We placed food order at the same time. After waiting a further 40 minutes had to ask another member of staff if our food was nearly ready. They checked for us and said it was on its way. In total it was 80mins from sitting down till it finally arrived. When the food arrived it wasn’t worth the wait. The burger was missing all its salad and pickles with no sauce, literally just burger and cheese. The burger patty was dry and overcooked. The pork medley was tasteless and overcooked, almost inedible, the sausages went straight to the dog. No one asked how the food was, just apologised for the wait. On departure was asked how the food was said it wasn’t any good. They agreed and refunded the price of the food. This really was one of the most abysmal meal experiences we’ve ever had. If they are short staffed they need to stop taking orders.

First class menu always good balanced food. The children’s meal was good value a portion size large. I had lamb kofta and my husband had BBQ ribs both off the special board both were very good . I can recommend the burgers too. I suggest booking may be advisable at busy times. I would have given 5 stars but although the waitresses were excellent the delivery of both the drinks and food was 45 minutes. It was a busy day but earlier drinks would have been very welcome as well as some idea how long we were expected to wait would have helped with managing children’s expectations. Toilets were clean.

I ordered the waffles with fruit and maple syrup. It was absolutely gorgeous but I was wearing a pure white dress. Mmm I had to buy a badge to cover it. My husband had a sausage sandwich he really enjoyed it.

A rustic restaurant that you are seated to a table and waited on. They were able to accommodate for 3 adults and a buggy with ample space. Good selection of food and drink at reasonable prices. Was happy to receive a 10% discount off the whole bill for being an annual pass member. A great spot for high quality food if you are visiting Jimmy's farm.

The food was nice and we were seated quickly and order taken reasonably quickly. Food was nice and came out hot, not fast but I understand it’s freshly cooked so I don’t have a problem with that. Although staff are extremely friendly we didn’t see anyone after we had our meals, in the end we had to go up and pay as had sat there for over 20 mins waiting for plates to be collected. We were going to get dessert but time was limited for us so we had to skip it but would have ordered and got another drink if only someone had come along. I get it’s busy but it was only a Monday, I think maybe wasn’t expecting as many customers.

Never been before , restaurant was very friendly and food was just what we wanted for lunch. It was a Monday and was open aswell. Definitely would eat there again.

I visited the barn restaurant yesterday with my partner. I had lamb which unfortunately was pretty flavourless, my partner had a hot dog which was much better hence 3/5.

We visited on fathers day, although very busy the staff were really attentive and friendly and we didn't wait very long for our food at all. Breakfast was very good, one of the best we've had in a while. Lovely setting in the barn. Would definitely recommend making it part of your visit to jimmys farm.

I've heard so much about this restaurant over the years so when I finally took a trip to the farm I thought it would be nice to stop in for breakfast. OK, yes everything is a little pricey. But if that's the price for sustainable food done right I'm all in. 2 full Englishes and 2 cherry hot chocolates came to about £35. No complaints about quality as it was amazing. I was cheeky and asked for some black pudding (wasn't included the small breakfast) and staff said it was no trouble. All in all, really can't complain about anything. If price is concerning you don't worry, as the quality is as good.

We visited Jimmys Farm last weekend as predominantly we wanted to buy an Animal Experience gift for a family member. Could of bought online, but thought we go and check it out first and eat lunch! The Barn Restaurant is a lovely venue and all staff were friendly and attentive. As we went on a Sunday, the menu was reduced due to them serving a Roast Dinner. I had the Fish, Chips & Peas. It was lovely although (I think) there was possibly Tumeric in the batter which I did not appreciate. I would of preferred just a good old plain batter taste wise, but the fish was still good. My husband enjoyed his Vege Burger and was happy with the portion size. I had the Crème Brûlée for dessert which was not the best unfortunately as I could of poured it out the cup which is not good. It was lovely tasting, but not the right consistency sadly. We then visited the Farm Shop which again we enjoyed. Purchased some very tasty Rockstar Chedder Cheese and a Spinach, Feta & Onion Tart which my husband enjoyed very much for his lunch the next day. We’ll definitely return to visit the animals when we go back to enjoy the Animal Experience and we’re looking forward to it!

Very fast service and our breakfast was delicious, no complaints just perfect Food was cooked to perfection, fruit juice and coffees. Got away quickly to see the farm

We went for Sunday roast whilst visiting the farm..the roast just didn't meet the expectations for the high price.. Needs more gravy and roast potatoes need to be smaller and crisper and the pork was fatty. Lovely barn building though.

The venue is lovely. The staff all very friendly and helpful. Our order was taken quickly and not much of a wait for the drinks. The breakfast arrived quite quickly and served on smart crockery. All food well cooked and hot and nicely presented . The tea and coffee were very pleasant but a bit on the expensive side. Would use the venue again.

The food was exceptional, the best breakfast I’ve had for a while but what really let the whole experience down was the service. Despite it not being very busy at all, they had plenty of staff on but were so slow! 15 mins to take our drinks order, so we ordered food at the same time. Once the food came out nobody checked back to make sure all was ok, we then had to ask for the plates to be cleared and then had to ask twice for the bill. It would’ve been 5 stars had we got the service.

Had lunch in the restaurant very busy but didn't have to wait too long The menu has changed from last year and it is as good as it was. Had the homemade sausage roll very meaty and extremely pleasant. The staff are very nice and helpful as well. All very good and would eat there again.

Booked the Barn for Mother's Day lunch. Firstly, we were disappointed with the set menu as only 1 vegetarian dish - butternut squash with couscous and broccoli - was offered. The couscous was dry and the broccoli only kissed the water. My grandson, who is usually not fussy, said that was one of the worst vegetarian dishes he ever had. We ordered 2 beef which arrived without Yorkshires. We mentioned this but nothing was done. The beef was very chewy. The meat on the lamb dish was chewy and the veg was over cooked. On a positive note, the carrots and parsnips were very tasty and the kids burger and chips were very nice. After that disappointment we were left hungry and then had to wait 30 minutes for our deserts. We very much looked forward to our lunch. BUT... . We will visit the farm again. The kids loved their day and seeing all the animals despite the rain. The family however is in agreement that we will take a picnic the next time. Nobody wants to revisit the restaurant!

Service very good but food awful. Whole breakfast had been pre-cooked and then re-heated. Disappointing for the price.

We are annual members of Jimmy's Farm and started our visit today at the Barn for a full English breakfast. The food was really good and reasonably priced for the quality and rare breed produce. The toilets were kept in excellent condition, baby changing facilities clean and great atmosphere. The gentleman who welcomed us and server were lovely.

We were seated immediately by the manager?? Didn't have long for wait for a young man to take our order, a young lady bought the drinks. I asked for a glass of water, which didn't arrive. Our hot chocolates and food were bought to us by the manager and the young lady, about 15-20 mins later, it looked really nice. 2 burgers in a bun, one was gf, portion of fries in a little tub and salad garnish. Could have done with the drinks coming earlier, as they got cold as we were eating before the food was completely cold. However, both mine and my Husbands burgers were nearly cold, but the chips were hot. My daughter had a fish finger sandwich which was quite large. She asked him for some extra tartare and again I asked for my water, which I told him I'd ask for already. We received neither of these. We couldn't be bothered to ask again. Also we know we should have complained about the burgers being nearly cold, but were time constrained as we hadn't finished looking around and I wanted to leave at 3pm, to make sure I wasn't driving through the horrendous A!4 roadworks in the dark. It was a grey dismal day, so knew it was going to get dark early, which it did. The park itself is really nice, but I have to disagree on them saying its the biggest Polar Bear enclosure in the UK. It isn't the one at the Yorkshire Wildlife Park is much bigger.

Everything about this restaurant made our day at Jimmy’s farm that much better! The service was extremely friendly and fast and the food and drinks were wonderful. They are dog friendly indoors too and even had a dog menu!

We went to Jimmy's restaurant and while the food was tasty, how it got to us was shambolic. I understand that when things are busy, standards can slip, but I seriously question the service standards. 15 min to order, 10.min food sat on pass with chef ringing for order, 5 min, half table cleared and left before we could order dessert. 1 dessert, 10.min later the other 3. I'm sorry, but it seemed not just our table but others seemed to face the same issues. Farm and zoo staff and place fab, restaurant...staff need training, not just to serve but customer interaction.

The food tasted great and was the nicest burger we've had. The apple pie was massive. The only complaint was the uncomfortable chairs

Delicious festive lunch Turkey stuffing & cranberry sourdough sandwich was fantastic Kids fish chips & peas really good & a large portion

We booked Sunday lunch for 22 people to celebrate mum's 90th birthday. Lots of venues would not take our booking but Jimmy's Farm were very accommodating right from our initial approach. Food was good, service too, everyone enjoyed their meal, the barn also is lovely. Thank you to Chris and his team for all their hard work to ensure our little celebration went so smoothly.

Nice friendly staff. Nice food.

I cannot recommend this hidden gem highly enough! We were looking for a late breakfast on a Sunday morning dog walk and Jimmy's farm restaurant was suggested. We phoned ahead and were informed that breakfast was served until 11.30 am and that dogs were most welcome. Upon arrival we chose to sit on one of the many tables outside as it was so warm and we had 3 dogs. Upon going inside to find menus etc we were told that if we preferred we could sit inside, dogs were welcome. We remained outside however, and placed our orders, 3 x full English, pot of tea, coffees and we asked for some tap water as it was so warm after our walk. A!most instantly three glasses of the coldest water arrived, complete with lemon and environmentally friendly straws. These were followed almost immediately by the hot drinks and then the food. And what a plateful! 2 farm pork sausages, farm bacon, black pudding, tomato, beans, mushrooms, 2 fried eggs and toast. It was absolutely delicious and there was so much of it and very reasonably priced at £12.95 considering it contained such fresh, locally sourced homemade produce. The staff were welcoming, happy and polite and as attentive as if we had been sitting inside. The barn that the restaurant is situated in has been beautifully converted and is bright and spacious and you don't have to pay to enter the farm to use the restaurant. The toilets are amazing, very clean and tastefully decorated. We will most definitely be back and make this one of our weekend dog walking routes. There are public footpaths from Pinewood that lead right in to the farm car park so no need to go on the road at all. Perfect!

I have visited Jimmy's farm a few times but I always make sure that I come to the restaurant. I have only had wonderful food and wonderful service. They have always been accommodating and mindful of children too. I would always recommend to book ahead to save any disappointment because it can get busy but that doesn't hinder the service. I have always made a note to have a highchair and there has always been one available even if the restaurant is full.

2 adult meals, 1 child for £45+ 2 adult hotdogs (1 vegan) with some chips. No salad garnish, just very beige looking. Definitely not worth the £12+ Should have ordered a kids meal as it looked much more appetising. Drinks were expensive. I knew the restaurant was a bit more pricey but expected so much more. Paid in cash, felt the waitress was cheeky asking if I wanted my change. Won't be heading back any time soon.

What a good place to visit. It had everything you expected to be there and there was plenty to do and see. Had a superb lunch too. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Would highly recommend Jimmy's farm.

A Very cool place I enjoyed the barn bar pint of cider with ice It was very refreshing before walking around looking at the animals on the farm

Had an amazing day with kids. The farm it self is great, but this cafe is just amazing. Such a nice decorated place. Kids friendly menu makes everything better. After tour of the farm this cafe is amazing to end your day . Of course friendly staff as well.

We took our toddler to jimmys farm and then tried out the restaurant. We were really impressed. The staff were really helpful and friendly. They provided crayons and colouring in for my little one. For kids drinks, they put them in plastic cups and the restaurant is really well thought out for children. The food is roughly about £14-15 a meal, slightly pricey, but the portions compensate and it is of good quality. We will be returning.

After a Great day out with the Girls - I was very disappointed with the Rare Breed / Cheese burger could have build a Drystane Dyke with them. The poor animal must have aged on the hoof or slaughtered in the kitchen by the chefs - 10% discount was warmly received but would have much preferred to have received some love from the chef 😡

Visited the farm today. We ordered Lamb Chops for lunch. It was served after 5 minutes! There was nothing on the plate which was fresh. Everything was pre-cooked. The chops were difficult to cut and felt like rubber. They were definitely a couple of days old and were microwaved. There was a large Yorkshire pudding which felt like wood and cold. The squashed vegetables and the chops were floating in watery gravy. Could not eat any of it. Very disappointing and ruined a nice day out.

The roast lunch was an absolute disgrace. Cold mashed swede, cold and floppy carrots, the parsnips were unedible, there was more fat on the pork than meat, leeks that were overcooked with what seemed to look like mustard seed mixed in, gravy that tasted bloody awful and the largest air filled Yorkshire pudding that was soggy. There is no doubt about it, me and my partner were served the scraggy ends of the day. When I complained there was no offer of a refund or discount. Will not be eating there again.

My wife booked a table for lunch 29/3/23 a birthday after such a lovely meal with ourson at Christmas table booked for 1.30pm ..was take to table to find my wife’s chair unstable ..we changed it..no staff stayed as seated…ordered meals was dissappointed same menu as Christmas and not as on website..my meal was tepid cold by the time I finished and wife’s very greasy ..our plates were eventually take and we ask for deserts menu ..weweregiven them and then just left waiting for waitress we waited 30 minutes andthen decided forget desert …we paid and as we left waitress we’re sat eating their lunch ..it would of been nice if we were able to enjoy ours …service was terrible so different to our last visit…I did email jimmys also dissappointed but no response … we know it could be good this time needs to improve

Great atmosphere, yummy food, very cosy place. We've been to one of the Breakfast Jazz and the band was just phenomenal!

Came here for a latte and piece of cake after exploring the farm, which was a pleasure. The barn is beautiful with beams, fairy lights and bunting, and the staff were polite and friendly. The toilets were also nice! However the food and drink were disappointing, especially as they were expensive. The latte in particular was far below expectations.

As a family we booked Jimmys for a supposedly lovely Mother’s Day treat. With the current climate we have cut down going out for meals and it really is a treat to get all 6 of us together for a meal out. We thought Jimmys would be perfect, we’ve been before & loved it in the past and it’s a well known farm so you expect good food right? Nope! Our table was booked at 17:45 and we’d put a special request on the booking to be put in a corner or to the side somewhere out of the way as I have an autistic younger sister. We got there bang on time and were immediately in a queue, they have a foyer area with 2 sofas and both were occupied with 2 different families, both looking rather distressed, we had another family in front of us and it was very crowded so with having an autistic sister we took it in turns standing in queue and going outside to get some space. We wouldn’t have minded waiting however the shocking part was no one even spoke to us or told us they’d be a wait. No one came to the door at all or even looked at everyone waiting! If we’d been acknowledged, at least greeted and offered drinks we wouldn’t have minded but we waited 45 minutes stood at the door and 30 minutes in that time before the manager even asked for our booking name. The family in front of us were told that customers just weren’t leaving however after myself working as a manager in a busy Suffolk pub for 2 years on busy shifts when tables were rebooked we simply told the table that we require the table back as it is rebooked! To not even be acknowledged for 30 minutes was absolutely shocking! The one good part was when we were finally spoken to the manager did say we’d be sat in the bottom of the restaurant out of the way so we were glad that he’d taken into consideration about my sisters special needs. However when we were finally sat we were in the top area by a load of screaming kids which really wasn’t ideal especially when he said we’d be in the bottom area but by that point we didn’t care. We did care however that 2 of us were sat on stools, not even actual chairs! Obviously we were already pretty annoyed but we were celebrating our mum and fortunately had lots to talk about and we also knew at least the food would be good right? We ordered drinks and food within 10 mins of being sat and the girl serving was lovely we cannot fault her service at all, of course we were disappointed to find out the lamb had ran out but we joked in queue that would probably happen so we ordered 3x pork roast, 2x beef roast and my younger sister just had a meatless roast. As we waited we overheard the table behind making a complaint to the poor girl, they complained they’d waited 1.5hours for their food, their beef was fatty and they weren’t checked on at all, the waitress said the head chef had only just started that week and they’ve been going through a string of chefs recently and that it wasn’t the first complaint they’d had today. Not really ideal to have overheard after waiting 45 mins in queue. The food came out and we couldn’t quite believe it, I had to take pictures of the pork or serious lack of, it was entirely inedible, we were given one slice and it was pure fat, with not even a quarter having actual pork on it and that itself was impossible to cut, flavourless and chewy was an understatement. It was vile. We hadn’t even begun eating when my brother got up and told the manager we literally cannot eat that food. He was very flustered but came over and told us that all the pork would be like that as it’s middle reared which means it’s usually fatty but absolutely no chance would you serve that, surely you’d just say there’s no pork on because it wasn’t even edible it was literally a slab of fat. He also told us he was going to “surprise” us at the end by giving all of our food for free and getting us some desserts to apologise for the wait. Obviously made us feel a bit better but I think we would have had to refuse to pay for that anyway. My dad and brother said their beef was chewy and ridiculously thinly cut. We ended up eating 4 potatoes and a Yorkshire pudding for our dinner as the vegetables were literally just 3 leaves of kale which was too stringy and inedible too. At least the potatoes and Yorkshire puddings were nice but really quite laughable. Onto dessert, we just wanted to go home by this point but we were still hungry so it was either dessert or a McDonald’s on the way home to try fill us up a tad, we were all still starving but only 4 of us had desserts, I had a dry chocolate brownie, my mum and sister had the lemon meringue which they did enjoy and my dad had the Bakewell tart which he also enjoyed. The bill came out and we had been charged for the desserts which was annoying as we’d been told we’d get them for free but by that point we just wanted to go home, we were still hungry but for a meal that we thought would cost us around £180-200 for 6 of us we only paid £47 (was £57 but the £10 deposit from booking was taken off at the end) and we couldn’t be bothered to wait any longer. Really disappointing, really shocking, inedible and quite frankly vile food.

I booked a table for four in the restaurant, when we got there we were shown to our table, another group sat down a few minutes later near us, and we're served before us. When we were served, two of us ordered pulled pork mushrooms and macaroni, one ordered pork and apple burger, and one spare ribs. The the two macaronis had very little pulled pork and mushrooms, very poor. The pork burger was underdone and the ribs had very little meat on them, also both very poor. Then to make it worse I was charged over £8 service charge they have the cheek to add it to the bill. So overall poor service, poor food, to expensive, and service charge should be optional. I have been here before and it's been ok but will never go to Jimmy's farm again very disappointed. Also i will never recommend the restaurant to anybody in the future.

We visited for lunch this week and unfortunately wouldn't be returning based on the food we received. We ordered an adults burger, a pulled pork burger, kids sausage and mash, kids burger and fish and chips. I requested for the burger to be cooked 'well done' however it was Luke warm when served, with half of the burger rare and a very soggy bun (the top half had soaked up a fair amount of blood/moisture from the burger) This wasn't the only problem with it, it had a strange taste as did the children's burger (I know that the produced is rare breed so affects the taste, but this was an un- enjoyable flavour) which my daughter refused to eat after a couple of bites. My other daughters childrens sausage and mash was also a let down. The sausages looked anemic! And according to my daughter tasted chewy/rubbery - another uneaten meal. My husband enjoyed his pulled pork burger, as did my son with his fish and chips. I could not fault the service, the waiting staff are brilliant but ultimately you come for the food, which was well below par.

If expecting "fast food" outlet prices you'll be disappointed but service was excellent, friendly and quick and the food was superb, delicious and obivoulsy made with quality ingedients. You get what you pay for and we'll definitely return soon.

Having booked as a group of friends to go to Jimmy’s restaurant as a Summer holiday treat we were genuinely excited about the food. I had been before for a breakfast some months ago which had been a success. This time however the menu was...

Extremely expensive and poor quality. Kids burger and chips was £7. Adults burger chips and "slaw" was £15. When it came up, the burger and chips on both servings was exactly the same other than a tables spoon of coleslaw. £8 for coleslaw! Added to the fact the chips were over salted and the burgers dry and over cooked I definitely won't be returning.

Only half the food arrived forgot a drink plastic cups small pizzas and our guest still hadn’t got there food after half of us finished No apologies just it’s busy and it was two orders even though others tables had been served Rubbish Don’t bother

Upon reading reviews, we were doubtful about visiting the restaurant at Jimmy's farm today (23/06/22).But we decided to give them the benefit of doubt, and I'm so glad we did. The two young ladies,were so warm and welcoming, nothing was to much trouble for them....

If you are thinking of a meal in a timely manner, it doe’s not happen Our third visit to eat and the time frame has not been changed. Such a shame as the food is really good. Drinks order messed up we had to remind...

We booked our lunch here when we visited jimmys farm the food choice was very pleasant we both chose the apple and pork burger my wife had a coffee I fancied one of jimmys special larger but didn’t know what the taste was the person...

Stupidly surmised that being a bestie of celebrity chef makes your own restaurant a surefire hit! Nope. It looks great inside “the barn” - the branding, rustic wooden tables, etc are attractive and we were welcomed and received good service. Jimmy’s credentials lead one to...

We pre booked the table online this was reserved for us. Luckily we did book the table as it was extremely busy. The food menu was quite adequate for this kind of venue. Our food arrived in a reasonable time and was hot. The service...

A simple menu with great quality hearty food. Friendly and accommodating staff, was able to sit in with dog too. Local beers on the menu too. Really enjoyed our lunch, thank you!

Booked in advance and paid a deposit. Had to add a couple of extra people to the booking the day before which was easy to sort. On arrival we were seated promptly and although the place wasn’t empty it wasn’t at capacity either with quite...

Was honestly so shocked at the price of the food! Main meals were far too pricey so thought we would order chips to share. Ordered 3 lots thinking that would be plenty, in reality was only enough for 3 small children. £4 for a tiny...

After having eaten and enjoyed the food there many times before, we were looking forward to Christmas Eve lunch followed by a visit to Santa Claus in the roundhouse for my three grandchildren. We arrived and were shown to our table and handed some very...

Went to the big beef night and it was great. Food was good. Demo was good. Jimmy’s hosting was excellent. He had a great knowledge of farming and the current issues. I would thoroughly recommend this evening. A couple of small improvements. The PA system...

We came to Jimmy's farm as we have loved the food in the past and assumed although only it was only takeaway that it would still be the standard we are used to. Unfortunately it cost £4.50 each for a dry bap with a single...

Stopped in for launch after a morning at the farm - Chips and a Rare Breed sausage roll, Mac Cheese and a hot dog (not all for me). Wasn't badly priced and the food was really nice. Well worth a visit

After a great day at the farm what better than a farm to fork Bacon Bap? Unfortunately this was rather disappointing as the bacon appeared to have been cooked on a dirty grill and tasted so! Served in a sweet brioche just felt wrong! So...

Only my 2nd visit as it takes me nearly 5hrs to get there, but is certainly worth it. The Big Beef night was top-notch - informative, entertaining, relaxed & a great way to meet people. The food & paired drinks tasted awesome! Wonderful to watch...

We loved the visit to the farm and thought we would have lunch although prices are on the high side. My wife and granddaughters sausage and mash was ok, however my Roast Beef lunch was inedible. The veg and Yorkshire were fine but the beef...

Called in for coffee. Have been before and not really been impressed. We asked for large coffees and these were served in at what was essentially teacups and at almost £3, way overpriced , a cheese scone served with a tiny pat of butter and...

We had lunch here recently and really enjoyed the food. Great quality products but the problem is there wasn't really enough of it. Yes the kids mean just satisfied our 5 year old but it wouldn't have been enough for kids even a little older....

Wonderful farmers breakfast..good coffee too..good friendly service..plenty of space in a cosy Barn with panoramic views of the farm and Suffolk countryside..walking of the breakfast with a nice walk around the farm and countryside...also good shops ;Joules and Clarke.. all good quality clothes at reasonable...

After visiting before we were looking forward to a visit to the Farm followed by lunch in the restaurant. We were a party of 2 adults and 2 small children, we were shown to our table by a young girl who was suppose to ‘look...

Absolutely outstanding as always we love a visiting Jimmy’s farm as well as the restaurant as a family ! Highly recommended we love the place food is beautiful and out of this world, staff always go the extra mile. Our special needs/autistic son is also...

I was looking forward to lunch here with my wife as we had visited several times before with family and always had a great time.The menu is very limited, not that is an issue if there is variety and those dishes are good.As a starter the pork scratchings at 3.95 are tasty but even for 2 of us there were maybe 2-3 pieces each, seriously make it a decent size portion.We both decided on the fish and chips with peas. (Which if you do not eat pork is the only dish for you). At 13.95 it is mid-range price wise I would say but the quality was not good. The fish itself was a "thin" piece of cod and the batter was crisp only on the upper side as if it had been sitting for a while in an oven or other keep hot device.The chips, again this can be time of year dependant but it was mid-late September so no excuse, were made of small potatoes, these do not "chip" well and were not only poor aesthetically but also in enjoyment to eat.

My son got married here, everything about Jimmy’s was wonderful, everything went to plan, the food was amazing and the trip around the farm was excellent. Jimmy’s do the was amazing Roast potatoes and Yorkshire puddings. I would certainly recommend a visit to this place. I shall certainly be visiting when I am next in Ipswich from Yorkshire to see more of the farm and visiting the restaurant.

Went for lunch to celebrate our parent’s 51st anniversary, 3 generations ranging from 18 months to 75 years & we all had a wonderful meal. Food plentiful & very tasty, staff could not be more accommodating, not easy with our group of 11 & the restaurant full to the rafters. The facilities for the bambino were excellent & pricing was fair. We will be back! Thank you for helping to make it a special day for us all.

Great coffee and cake..served up to eleven In school tine lovely and quiet . lovely views...wide open space inside and out. Friendly staff.. Lovely to spend while here

We pre-booked 3 adults and paid £30 deposit, then added 1 child on the day. Really looked forward to Roast Beef but when it came the meat was carved too thick, like boot leather, was tough and one portion was very gristly. Vegetables were under cooked and roast potatoes very hard. One plate had no carrots st all. The cutlery provided is old and knives not sharp, so almost impossible to cut meat or potatoes. Huge Yorkshire puddings cooked ok, but everything was served cold. Had to ask 3x for the mustard - but place not full and staff not busy, just inattentive.

Arrived at our booked time, but our booking couldn't be found, this didn't stop the staff from putting together a table for 5 in a matter of minutes. Service was excellent, and our waitress took a big shine to my grand daughter, and she loved the attention. Food was excellent, and service perfect. Everyone seemed to be totally chilled out, with no rushing around, everybody was in control.

Food great, service great and will definitely come back. We were a table of 4 adults and 3 kids. All loved their food and will recommend the pork roast

Lovely atmosphere and surroundings and a decent menu including specials and gluten free options. Portions are acceptable as is the cost and the service was good to with special thanks to George for running such a slick operation.

We keep being drawn to this place, have been quite a few times now and have seen the farm grow without loosing it’s charm. Unfortunately the Butchers shop does not sell fresh meat anymore as they have lost there butcher, let’s hope they can find another one. The food is very good, although the selection seems to have reduced, but what was left is still very good.

Recommend sausage sandwich Good coffee All this and friendly service. Big picture windows with views of Suffolk countryside. Americano.latte.with 2 sausage sandwiches with salad £20

We booked for dinner just a few days before Saturdays performance. As a table of three we decided to share a few of the nibbles and then had a main course each. Two of us had the pork burger - which is easily one of the best we've ever had - great flavour, juicy and extremely large! The other member of our party had the sausages and mash which was equally enjoyed.

We visited Jimmys Farm restaurant today as it was my daughters 2nd birthday, she has special needs and requires quite a bit of accommodating at times.

Loved the farm but sadly the restaurant was very disappointing. The food was just not what you would expect from the price.

Lovely food, fresh, cooked from scratch, nothing frozen thank goodness in this restaurant. Faultless! Really reasonable too
