I was there early in the evening and was made very welcome by the excellent team. They are very customer-focused, friendly and efficient. I would definitely recommend the Queen's Head and i hope to return, when i have the opportunity.

Our first time at the Queens Head. Had a lovely meal with fantastic service. The chips especially were amazing and my tacos were great. The only downside was a bunch of drunk middle aged men at the next table who were loud and foul mouthed but of course thats not the pubs fault and we will definitely go back! Might try a cocktail next time…..

Been a local pub for years, but since it has been changed to a cocktail bar it is so much nicer! I can actually go there and have a socialised drink without having to deal with the partying side which is so nice for a small town like Stowmarket. Face you've done an amazing job!

Great decor. Good food and drinks and Friendly staff. Food was typical pub food but done well and tasty. Fast service. Only downside was personally thought it slightly pricey at around 17.50 for burger, fries and an included ‘accompaniment’. However, i’d recommend a visit and we’ll be going again. I’d give 9/10 if I could. Good choice of Cocktails and 2 for £12 too.

A nice place, but we were rudely told to move away from the bar even though we weren’t actually at the bar. Berated by two staff members for questioning the issue politely and accused of having an attitude despite this. Shame but I might give this place a miss next time. EDIT: looking at how you’ve responded to others who have had problems, your response to my customer review is as expected. Blame the customer and invent a new narrative. Nobody in our group was rude or raised their voice. This is categorically untrue. What I suspect happened was you just didn’t want a group like us in your pub not ordering food after a long day. Shame as you otherwise have a pretty decent pub there in Stowmarket.

We had originally booked a table at another restaurant nearby but because of the awful service we left. We were out with my son to celebrate his birthday earlier in week. He lives locally and suggested we try this pub as he had heard good things about. He was absolutely right. We were welcomed in, told a little about the food and told to order at bar. They didn’t serve sunday lunch but they did serve the most awesome burgers. Food was fresh, well cooked, well presented and lots of it. Really impressed with the obviously homemade burgers. Will definitely return here.

The vegetarian seitan here is fantastic! They put lots of care and attention into their dishes and have a passion for vegan and vegetarian options. I like the way they are not included onto the menu to ‘tick the box’. They are outstanding in their own right. Whilst the Queens is a bit more expensive than usual Stowmarket places it is worth it as it is more sophisticated, upmarket and similar to a wine bar. Cocktails are great but always ask them to make them fresh!

The Queens Head has worked hard at improving its image from a drinking pub, to a much more adult space, and I think it's done a reasonable job. The space has been decorated and furnished in line with modern trends and is definitely an inviting space. There is an extensive outdoor area, however, we sat inside. Food is good value, with enough choice to keep most people happy.

The food here is absolutely excellent. They have a relatively limited menu (burgers, wings, several Mexican dishes), but everything was delicious and clearly carefully prepared. The Buffalo Wings were some of the best I have ever had. The staff were attentive and friendly, even on a Saturday night when the place was busy. The decor is beautiful and original, and the atmosphere was friendly and conversational. This would be a great place to take someone for a date or to to meet up with some friends for a drink. Highly recommended.

Place for drinks was ok. But the lack of competence and training from the staff is shocking when it comes to advise on intoxication. customer not to drink water when being sick and so on an so forth! When being sick you are loosing fluids! And to gain back what you are loosing you need to drink to keep hydrated! Staff member advised to not drink anything!! Being in the health and care sector for many of years it’s a given.. this place need more staff training and what to do when they have I’ll and intoxicated customers! And rather than pushing away train professionals, encourage them to their jobs when they are off duty!.. A customer come I’ll or intoxicated and when trying my best to help and rehydrate I was told to leave them alone.. so doing so I went home worrying about what happened… Customer satisfaction is 0..

A very good night out, that's how I describe this place. As soon as you walk in you know it's going to be good. Lots of people in the bar, we sat in the restaurant which is lovely plenty of space and you can see the huge pizza oven. Service was friendly and we felt so welcome. Food was delicious and the beer was apparently a great pint! We will definitely be back.
