Kesgrave Kitchen in Suffolk Coastal

Lovely place, didn’t have to wait, fast service, but usually busy on weekends. Food was tasty and came quickly. I got avocado and halloumi on sourdough and a white chocolate mocha. Husband got veggie breakfast and mocha :)

Nice cafe, food is good, service is fast, nice location, always busy so good sign

Great food great prices, recommended, can be noisy

Extremely noisy environment Large breakfast was expensive for what was served up. Pre-cooked food, which wasn't very hot. Very Saltly bacon and cheap sausages. Salmon Avacado breakfast had very little scrambled egg, which had a skin on it as it was pre-cooked. £30 was expensive for the quality and size of this breakfast.

Had a lovely brunch. The food was awesome, tried the coronation baguette and the butchers breakfast with the frappe. 10 on 10 for the food and the service.

Great atmosphere and delicious food. Big garden to enjoy the sun( when it's out 😊)

Lovely little place with welcoming staff, food was amazing, would recommend

Really tasty food, friendly staff, fast service and reasonable prices. Couldn't ask for more :)

My eggs Benedict were very good; would have been perfect if the eggs were not overcooked. Not a big deal for me but the step-mother-in-law was appalled. Everyone else’s were great; the full English large was huge. Good service and nice atmosphere.

Excellent all day veggie breakfast. Delicious and a generous portion. (Wasn't so impressed with the freshly squeezed orange juice, though - a bit tasteless, tbh, sorry!)

Great breakfast in the garden area. Staff very welcoming and stress free bearing in mind we had a little one with us. Would definitely visit again

First time visiting and I am pleased to say I was not disappointed. Really tasty hot chocolate! Id say maybe the best I've ever had at any cafe or pub. Well done! Great big sausage and bacon baguette as well (normally comes with egg but not for me!) This came out very promptly after ordering as well which was an added bonus. Friends scrambled egg looked nice.... If you like eggs of course! But he said it was great. Overall a very happy experience. Plenty of seats, great service and lovely food.

Delicious food freshly prepared. A great selection on the menu, something for everyone.

Had a lunchtime business meeting there. Ordered the All Day large breakfast with a soft drink. The food tasted wonderful. The service was quicker than expected as it was busy whilst we were there. The staff are friendly and sociable and the cost reasonable. We got to sit outside in the sun, making it even better. Highly recommend popping in.

This little cafe has a modern menu choices for everyone's taste the staff are absolutely lovely

One of the best and freshest breakfast I have ever tried. The salmon and avocado breakfast was banging!!!

Lovely place to eat, food is spot on and lovely atmosphere. Outside area a bonus too!

Lovely place good service and quality

Wow! I am so impressed. This is my first time coming to Kesgrave Kitchen in years and I absolutely love it! The staff are all wonderful, smiley and friendly- great service and very helpful. We were served quickly, our food came out looking absolutely beautiful. We had the folded pancakes and the large butchers breakfast and my goodness, they were to die for! So tasty, I’ve honestly never had such good pancakes. 10/10

Brilliant all round. Great food and drink. Fantastic range of breakfast items and really nice ice coffee. Brilliant staff and just a nice environment.

I took my Dad to the Kitchen for a breakfast and I had eggs Benedict, both were decent sized portions and the eggs Benedict were perfect. The food arrived at the same time, the server was brilliant, very polite and ensured we had everything we needed. It wasn't very busy at the time and I was pleasantly surprised to see dogs allowed in the restaurant, so next time I'll bring mine along. It's a very friendly , community spirited venue that offers decent food at slightly higher prices than I expected, but the quality of the food was well worth it. my only complaint was the the tea could be served maybe in a pot or larger mugs rather than the small ones that we had. If that was the case it would be an absolutely perfect venue for late breakfast or brunch. Overall, it's 100 times better than the previous incarnation I visited back in 2008! it offers better value, better food, better surroundings and the owners have really put a lot of effort into the place. We've been back since and will go again.

Really enjoyed our trip to Kesgrave Kitchen. Food was excellent, service was great and they’re brilliant with food intolerances / allergies. I can’t have gluten / dairy at the moment and they had plenty of dairy alternative milks available and did GF toast and sausages. Surprisingly hard to come by places like this - can see why it’s so busy all the time!

Visit often with 'Fuzz Buds',always great food and friendly staff. Breakfasts have lovely ingredients...nice garden area, weather permitting.

My first time here and it was nice. I'd say very much aimed for Breakfast or tea and cake. I had the american breakfast which was fine and the value seemed fair in todays climate. The only thing stopping me from giving 5 stars is the fact dogs are allowed in the actual restaurant.

Absolutely delicious and reasonably priced. I have eggs Royal most times when eating out for breakfast and this was delicious. The homemade hollandaise was yummy too. My husband had a butchers breakfast and he was very impressed. My first time trying a match chai latte and I loved it. Will definitely return.

Usually very busy when we call in for coffee and snack. Great staff, very good service, and parking a bonus!

During a powercut on a Saturday morning we decided the only course of action was breakfast out! They have a good range of types of breakfast, I had the traditional fry up. But Pancakes and Eggs Benedict was also enjoyed by other members of the family. The only criticism is the acoustics are poor and it did get very noisy in there. However i dont think this is enough of a problem to only warrant 4 stars.

A very welcoming and well done out cafe. We went here for breakfast, which was very good quality at a decent price; there's also a variety of different lunchtime options which again looked very high quality. Would happily recommend.

Food is really tasty, staff can't do enough to help . They are so friendly

Such delicious food. The kind of food you want to eat again the next day. I had eggs royale, lots of salmon, superb hollandaise sauce. Attentive service. Nice decor. The only thing I would prefer would be a quieter background. I guess a busy place is always noisy, but there are no soft furnishings to absorb this. Nice toilets. Outside seating too....would be lovely on a warmer day. It would be my go-to place, if I lived close by.

Always brilliant food and great service.

Brilliant cafe! Staff are excellent and so is the food.

Sometimes, this place can get quite busy, but for the right reasons. The staff are friendly and attentive, and the food is really good, Everything is fresh, usually locally sourced. Nothing on the menu will leave you disappointed! And why not wash it all down with freshly squeezed orange juice or a rather indulgent hot chocolate 😋

Was recommended the kesgrave Kitchen by some colleagues and it did not disappoint! Some said it’s a bit more expensive but in my opinion the quality of food, friendly service and lovely atmosphere was well worth it and I shall definitely be returning.

Great little cafe Dog friendly Great food definitely recommend going

Great breakfast & friendly team. Thank you. Will be back soon.

A very nice place to have a good breakfast. The staff is super friendly and the location rather modern and appears freshly reworked. It seems that many locals are visiting this place, which I assume, speaks for itself.

Food was absolutely amazing, cooked to perfection, good quality and presented so well. Treated my girls aged 12 and 9 and they loved it. One had poached egg on smashed avocado and sourdough toast with salmon, the other had dirty fries. They both had white hot chocolate with marshmallows and cream. Honestly, I will make this a monthly treat, next time I’m told the American pancakes will be their choice! Service was amazing, only negative is it was cold, but if I had of known they provided blankets I would have given 5* Lovely, clean and happy environment. Highly recommend x

Breakfast. Smashed Avocado with Bacon and Egg on Sourdough, Mocha and Orange Juice. Good food and service, reasonably priced.

Lovely breakfast , highly recommend

Lovely cafe, friendly staff and great food and drinks, especially the coffee ☕️ Definitely worth a visit.

Turned up in the pouring rain with my daughter, her boyfriend and stepson. There were a couple of tables free but none for 4 people. Lady came over and said there would be a little bit of a wait. I said fine we would just stand inside the door as there was plenty of room. She told me we weren’t allowed to stand inside and would have to wait outside in the wind and rain. First time I’ve ever been told that anywhere. First started going in there 30 years ago. I won’t be going back.

What a superb breakfast,my son & I had the large ,it was quality food,great service, atmosphere, top stuff guys 👌🏻👌🏻

Great service. They've got themselves organised so food and drinks arrived promptly. Food is what you'd expect for a english breakfast

This place is great what a find ! ! reasonable prices great indoors and outside space and the food was fantastic. I can't believe this establishment is so close to us and we never knew about it. We shall be going back without a doubt. Opening times are between 8am until 3pm and closed on Sundays.

Good service, great food. Parking is a bit of a chore, however this isn’t the fault of a great little kitchen. Lots of space inside for many diners.

Very clean very friendly and a good atmosphere, great for breakfast or lunch. Just a shame they are not open on Sunday's.

Very nice clean place we stopped in on the way back from Colchester. The food was very nice especially the breakfast and sausage roll 😋. The staff are all very friendly and the toilets are very clean.

My son took me here for lunch, one of his favourite 'discoverys' since he started working in Ipswich. Really nice food, I'll be back again. Went back again today with my wife. She was just as pleased as I was with this great little cafe.

Always a delight to go food great nothing to much trouble, highly efficient great atmosphere regular treat.

Very nice fried breakfast. My wife was very impressed with her vegetarian breakfast.

Very nice beakfast and great staff

Full marks in all areas. My first, but not my last, visit. Quite exceptional.

Best breakfast in suffolk by far

Really nice place. Great quality food and the staff are very friendly.

Been there a few times. Always lovely food and staff are great always helpful.

Hello ate there nice place but don't like the yellow containers in back garden to kill wasps seems cruel as they are not able to get out and die slowly may not bother some people but others may not like spoilt our visit would rather leave nature alone be good if you remove these please many thanks

Popped in for the first time in a while for a brekkie.

Excellent food. Excellent service...we arrived at 10.30 am. Every table was occupied..we didn't have to wait long.. we have had breakfast there many times and we will have many more

Very good food, i had a fryup and my girlfriend had eggs Benedict.

Good all round with friendly staff, good food in a nice clean place. Bit more expensive than I expected but not too bad.

Lovely breakfast with a lush outdoor space for the little one

First time I’ve visited here, it’s a very friendly and welcoming cafe that offers a wide range of food, drinks (hot and cold), cakes and pastries. Food is good value for money here, there is both indoor and outdoor seating. Dog friendly for outdoors (must be on a lead) - overall, definitely worth dropping by if you’re driving past! In terms of the food I ordered, I found the pancakes were drenched in honey (would have preferred honey in a pot to drizzle personally). Freshly squeezed OJ was a bit overpriced though.

We had an amazing breakfast this morning......Great produce, great service, lovely outside seating area and great value! Highly recommend

Amazing place to eat, always good food . Friendly welcoming service. The dirty fries are the best I have ever eaten. Highly recommended!

Great food, great staff, great prices. Best eggs Benedict I've ever tried.

We were recommended to this place by a colleague from breakfast. There were 5 of us altogether but we were seated comfortably. Everyone enjoyed their meal. These were eggs benedict and ham, egg & chips with a mixture of latte's and soft drinks. For 5 of us it was just over £10 p/p. The staff were great too, really polite and happy. We all enjoyed it will be going back.

Great little cafe. Food a little expensive though

Great breakfast very good service by lovely friendly staff we will definitely be giving this place another look

Great food,fast service and very clean

Wonderful lunch with my daughter. Managed to take her there at last.

Very clean cafe, pleasant efficient staff, good food at reasonable price

Everything was a real treat . Friendly staff fast and hot food. Nothing was too much trouble and my dog was made very welcome. Will be back and looking forward to it.

Fabulous quick and tasty lunch! Busy place which says it all. Recommend.

Very nice food. Good selection, mainly breakfast based. Friendly staff and fair pricing. Recommended.

Superb breakfast, cooked to perfection

Top place to eat, nicely laid out well decorated and very good level service too. Polite friendly staff ready to make dietary adjustments to your order without fuss. Very well presented food and cooked to perfection. Very well done girls you should be proud.

Delish and great service! Also very clean

The staff are lovely. The food was delicious and the restaurant is clean and inviting. I would definitely recommend The kesgrave kitchen.

Since it's refurbishment Kesgrave Kitchen has had quite a buzz to it. Often busy with good food in pleasant surroundings. It can get a bit too loud in there but I believe they're working on that.

Perfect Full English. Very clean and welcoming.

First time for me going to Kesgrave Kitchen,welcomed by friendly staff,food came out quickly which was very nice,looking forward to going back again. Thank you

Lovely place to go for a cooked breakfast.

Excellent little cafe, I went here whilst my boy was training at Ipswich Football (5min drive). The staff were lovely, and so was the food. I had a small butcher's breakfast. All the items were local and tasted delicious. I will be coming again and can recommend if you are in the area. Thanks

Tried to charge me £1.50 to have scrambled egg instead of fried. I can buy 6 eggs for that.

Really good breakfast, friendly and efficient staff

Friendly place, lots of seating and decent food / coffee

Pleasant staff, very clean and tables well spaced out. Everything cooked to order.

Love having a relaxing coffee and catching up on work whilst waiting to go & watch my daughter play football ⚽

It has been a couple of years since I last visited. Extensively modernised and updated but all done tastefully and with an eye for detail. Pleasant and cheerful staff, great range of breakfast options, service was great and good value. I will be back.

Food is good, service excellent 👌

Always found this little cafe to be really nice. However today’s experience was very disappointing. We were waiting for a table by the inside door and we were asked to wait outside, when I pointed out to the waitress it was pouring with rain she said we still had to wait outside, so we left without our breakfast. We weren’t blocking the exit or in anyones way, why would you make your customers wait outside in the rain?

Great café, food is amazing and service is fast, staff friendly and helpful.

Very disappointing. Service wasn't great, food was very cheap quality and vastly overpriced. Felt very crammed in on the table. Overall extremely poor experience.

First time visiting there with my friend after doing a park run. Friendly service. Amazing food. Highly recommend and will hopefully go back again

I haven't been in here for a long time because I used to always go with my husband and after he died it was a bit much. But a friend took me for breakfast after a horrible trip to the hospital and it's like a different place. The food was amazing, perfect bacon. They get extra points for the beautiful autumn decorations.

Good small breakfast. Coffee could have been hotter

Sausages are bland. They need to get revetts sausages from Wickham market. Then their English breakfast would be lovely. # update due to response. Those people are crazy, revetts are the best, always have been.

First visit today, very clean, friendly staff & delicious vegetarian breakfast.

Friendly staff and great food 👍
