St. Peter's Hall in Waveney

Visited on Mothers day for Sunday lunch. Fantastic food, service and atmosphere, will definitely be returning :-)

We held our annual Christmas Party with Trios and had the most amazing time - the food was absolutely delicious, service impeccable and wonderful ambience and setting. Would thoroughly recommend - Thank you so much we all loved it Joanna McIntyre Musker McIntyre Estate Agents

We had afternoon tea today and compared to the description it was nothing like that. We had 4 tiny sandwiches each savouries were good and 3 small cakes but were was the scone with jam and cream no where to be seen. My wife normally has to take something away with her but this time left hungry. It was a shame because we had just had an excellent tour of the brewery

We had visited St Peter's Hall several times before, but only for coffee and a snack. Today we called in for a proper lunch and were seriously impressed by the quality and originality of the food. So often a menu is alluring, but the reality when served up falls short of expectations. Here our expectations were exceeded. Trios have turned this lovely old building into a professional, friendly, relaxing restaurant where it is possible to enjoy really imaginative cooking at very reasonable prices. In such a historic and peaceful setting, the (modern) background music seemed incongruous and obtrusive. Silence would have been preferable, or else something older and a little more sedate. But this is only a minor quibble. Full marks for food and service.

We attended the Hall for Afternoon Tea, having visited for yummy cakes and drinks previously on our local walk. The Afternoon tea itself was presented extremely well and was very tasty, with a varied selection of sweet and savoury. Venue was stunning and clean. Worth mentioning the ease of booking as well via email. Only thing lacking was staff communication and finesse. We received milk in a jug which had loose tea floating in it. This was quickly resolved albeit served in the same jug just dripping with water from where it had been rinsed. Fairly attentive throughout (including choice of music!) and anything we asked for was served quickly. We were told by one member of staff the table wouldn’t be needed so could stay, only to be told a short while later by another member of staff, we would need to move table or vacate for the evening sitting. Final confusion came when it was time to pay the bill, a number of items were missed off and this was blamed on another member of staff. This was quickly resolved although still thought to be unprofessional. A few small tweaks and I would happily award the final stars🙂

Had another excellent meal at this lovely, atmospheric restaurant. A beautiful building, lovely decor in the restaurant and plenty of outside seating for nice weather. Rural tranquil setting but easily accessible. Popular with cyclists as well as people like us looking for tasty, imaginative food. Good for people who like vegetarian food and aren’t after just meat and veg. I had the broccoli and blue cheese soup which was delicious followed by Tofu green curry which was suitably fragrant and authentic tasting. You can have it with prawns or chicken. The fish cakes are very good and the grazing platters are generous and tasty. There is a good selection of desserts and ice cream. Friendly attentive service!! We will be back!! For beer lovers there is also the brewery and a well stocked shop!

Visited on a Saturday evening to try the taster Menu. Superb food and excellent front of house. I think the pictures say it all...

We visited St. Peter’s Hall yesterday for Sunday lunch to celebrate my grandparent’s 60th wedding anniversary and it was simply amazing. All three courses were absolutely delicious and to a very high standard. If you’re looking for a good quality Sunday roast then this is not to be missed. The Stilton mushrooms starter and sticky toffee pudding were personal favourites but everything was just perfect. Can’t fault a single part of the meal and it was enjoyed by all. We had some requirements for the meal and nothing was too much trouble. There was 14 of us (ranging from 16 years old to 84!) so a big party but we felt very welcome. The staff were very friendly, attentive and helpful. If you’re wanting somewhere where you can have a celebration then this is definitely the place. We will definitely be back and this is a must try if you’re in the area!

After an awful experience when St peter's restaurant was under the previous management we were very hesitant to return but so glad we did. The restaurant now under Trios exceeded our expectations. Booking was easy, staff were extremely friendly, nothing was too much trouble, food and drink was amazing. So lovely to be treated to Sunday lunch with lots of lovely flavours, colour and textures. We were warned that there was a large group in before us and expected a bit of a wait for food but service was very slow so not somewhere to visit if you're in a hurry. We had a private dining room upstairs as we were also a large group and it was perfect for passing a peaceful afternoon with family, leisurely playing card games in between courses, opening birthday presents and enough space for the children to stretch their legs. The children's menu is just smaller portions from the main menu and my children didn't really appreciate the variety of veg and flavours on offer for Sunday lunch but staff were so accommodating of their fussiness. Very lucky to have this stunning venue on our doorstep and it was a wonderfully cool place to be on a scorching hot day. We will definitely be returning soon.

What an amazing venue. If I lived locally would be here every night. Made to feel so welcome and treated to an amazing menu and choice of drinks. Delicious local beer from next door I assume. 5 out of 5 stars is not enough

Great venue, super food and really fabulous staff! So helpful and accommodating, nothing was too much trouble! Highly recommended!

Tim & I got married here on 14th June. We had a fantastic day . Natalie and her staff prepared the Great Hall for our ceremony and it looked stunning. We had our wedding breakfast later in the same room, the food was gorgeous and everyone said how tasty it was. St Peter's Hall is a really beautiful wedding venue and we are so pleased that we chose it for our big day. Thank you once again Natalie for making our wedding day so perfect.

This was our first meal here and we will be going back for sure. The food was very well cooked, fresh and full of flavours - quite how they served the veg so fresh is beyond me. The Hall is very pretty and the bar/restaurant well laid out, plus there is outdoor places to eat or drink. Only complaint is service. All the staff were lovely, but everything took so long. Nearly an hour after ordering before our main arrived and another 30 minutes until cold puds got to us. After nearly two hours had to go to the bar to try and pay the bill, which saw a number of other tables stand up and do the same - one couple left before pudding as they had run out of time. So great place, great food, just expect it to take some time to get through your meal.

Beautiful spot, excellent service and delicious food. I had the vegetarian burger and it was delicious. St Peter's Hall is stunning, only word for it. This was first and hopefully not my last visit.

I've been a few times now and the food is superb, be it Pizza or Sunday Roast. Sitting in the Hall to eat was amazing/ Staff were friendly and helpful . Absolutely recommend

Tapas night at Trio’s Restaurant at St Peter’s Hall - it was a great evening, excellent food and service, lovely format and the bonus of some live music, which added to the atmosphere without intruding on the dining experience. Would highly recommend and look forward...

Some while ago we had a rather nasty experience here, but we read in the local paper that the restaurant at St Peter's Brewery had been taken over recently. So, for Saturday lunch we gave it a go. It was amazing....the staff could not have...

So sad that this beautiful place is not open at the moment, & even more sad that Jill is no longer running it ! Good luck with what ever venture you are doing Jill 😔

I've only been here for drinks not food but the draft cider is lovely and it's a great location, especially if you can sit out! I've been when also visiting the brewery and the it's definitely worth the trip out.

No beer on draught, warm bottles of beer and no food. I don't think this place can get any worse. This isn't the first time I've had this problem either. Avoid.

This is a great place to go for a drink, supplied by the brewery next door, and food. We had a lovely lunch which left us feeling full and one of the best pies I have had in many years.

St. Peter's Hall is well worth our weekly patronage. The summer menu has something for everyone. Presentation & cooking of food is very good, we would especially recommend both the cream teas or savoury teas. An added bonus for beer drinkers is St. Peters brewery which is opposite the Hall.

Its not the easiest place to find but once you do its lovely to sit by the stream and have coffee or as I did have a very enjoyable meal at my granddaughters wedding reception the staff were great very friendly .

As an 'Invitation to view' visit, I had expected to see a fine old mansion. However, there is very little left of the original hall and it was very much a promotion for the tenant to tell us about her ideas for the hall, including afternoon teas, lunches and weddings (in a very bland room at the top of the hall). The tour of the brewery was just standing around outside whilst a very knowledgeable chap told us all about the various processes. Unlike Greene King Brewery tours at Bury St Edmunds, no real feel for the brewing of real ale, and no tasting samples. In fact buying four random bottles cost GBP10.50. In my local Co-op store three of those bottles are presently GBP1.99 each with another one on offer at GBP1.50!

It doesn't seem to be open in the evenings any more which is a shame, although last time I went it didn't have a good feel at all. With the right commitment, chef and good marketing this could be one of the best places in Suffolk to eat. We miss it as it use to be. Can we look forward to better things?

Hemos estado aquí un par de veces, y quedé asombrado de lo que había cambiado en cuanto a la comida. La tarta de mi compañero fue buena, pero tuve de salchichas. El interior estaba bien, pero era como de goma de la carcasa, elásticas y comestible. El estanque estaba lleno de malezas, verde y horrible y bastante negro ha desaparecido. cisnes Compramos cerveza y seguirá haciéndolo, pero para la comida, se pasa de ella. Lo siento.

El lugar es local a algunos parientes y pensamos parada para almorzar, probablemente no sea la mejor de las ideas.Nos pusieron en un salón amplio que estaba un poco fría, por decir menos.Optamos por las salchichas y puré de patatas y la ensalada de caballa, y que fue literalmente, la ensalada de patatas ensalada y era justo y caballa, bata nada.Tuve la seguridad intrínseca salchichas y puré, mi primera pregunta sería son clasificados como salchichas chipolata? ? Quizás los cuatro chipolatas contará como una salchicha? ? En general no es que impresionado con las comidas.Pensamos que podría ahorrar! postre ! Elegimos el cálido Bakewell tarta de crema pastelera tarta y, el flan de la era pasable, sin embargo no fue era tan aguado no hay manera de que incluso podría llamar natillas.Es una pena, porque los ajustes son preciosas y con un poco de ingenio y locales las cosas podrían ser increíble, también se podría afirmar el lugar es sobre la fábrica y no la comida.No regresaríamos y probablemente no recomendaría la comida por desgracia.

O de los lugares más mágicos que puedes visitar, como retroceder en el tiempo. Con buena comida y una selección de cervezas para disfrutar de este me gustaría un lugar maravilloso para relajarse, especialmente en una noche de invierno cuando el fuego está encendido, o en los calurosos días de verano, cuando se puede disfrutar del jardín y foso.

Lots of history. Lovely building with several rooms. Main room is full of character. Well restored. Great place and location.

We joined an Invitation to View tour and were pleasantly surprised because we had done the Brewery tour before and had eaten in the restaurant - and we knew how small the "Hall" actually was - although both were some time ago..........however, combining the 2, and with Robin & Jill so full of enthusiasm for their subjects, the tour was thoroughly enjoyable......and as for the usual "coffee & a slice of cake" - brillant08 (below) says it all, but probably understates the quantities / quality !!!

We were unable to sample the a la carte menu. The answerphone was on but the online booking system accepted our albeit late request, sending a welcoming email and reference code. However, after driving more than 30 miles, we found the restaurant full, hosting a private function. All that was on offer was a ploughmans or afternoon tea. Not quite what we thought we had booked, so unable to comment on food, service or value.

No podría decidir sobre la excursión adnams o este y decidí por San Pedro, ya que estaba más cerca de donde estábamos y estoy seguro de que hicimos la elección correcta. Un tour personalizado (sólo había cuatro de nosotros!) de un guía muy bien informado. La fábrica está situada enfrente de un antiguo monasterio que aporta al ambiente. Como estaba conduciendo solo pude probar un par de cervezas, pero nos gustó sin embargo. Compramos un kit de elaboración ruby ale que también era un éxito. Bien hecho San Pedro!

We came across the brewery whilst we were out walking. Lovely lunch (and we were served after 2pm!). Very fresh, tasty salads and a lovely place to sit - outside views of the moat, inside gorgeous paneling and very interesting building. Good range of St...

We visited St Peter's yesterday on their first Invitation to View tour.Although Jill our tour guide had been involved in the tours before at nearby Earsham Hall,this was her first at St Peter's.After being warmly welcomed we went into the library bar for drinks and melt in your shortbread and scones.This was followed by a very informative and friendly tour of the hall.The Hall has a romantic feel to it along with plenty of character and interesting rooms.This was then followed by a garden tour,a visit to the Brewery and shop.We then returned across the courtyard to the hall, after sitting on French pews in another fascinating room, we were then served afternoon tea.This contained a selection of sandwiches,scones and cake.All fresh very tasty and plenty of.We couldn't fault anything.Well done Jill for the tour,the lady serving the food and Robin for his Brewery tour.Hope all the other tours go as well.We will see you Sunday at The Blue Brothers evening and will be returning to try lunch during the summer.

Candles light up the ancient tapestry and carved wall panels in the dining room, whilst the snug bar has a relaxed feel with wood burner and old beer bottles lining the walls. A great choice of St Peter's beers, brewed just across the yard, plus all the usual bar selections. The proprietor and staff are friendly and welcoming and the grounds make for a stunning setting. We have not eaten from the main menu but the selection of curries, pakoras and bhajis on their regular curry nights are authentic, delicious and fairly priced. They catered for me being gluten free (including beer!) with no trouble. Recommend sitting outside to watch the sun set over the moat on a summer's eve, or a warming brew by the fire on a winter weekend. During the day time you can even pop across to the brewery shop take take some tasty neer home as a souvenir! A special and magical place.

Limited by time, I had a brief visit of the main house, which is open and free to look inside, an idyllic peaceful setting that warrants a brewery tour in the future

Limited menu, steak was over cooked, I asked for rare and it came up with 2 thirds of it being brown, not even slightly pink, no choice of potatoes had to have them sautéed. Was not even asked if we enjoyed the food as the staff were too busy! Will never go back. awful food!

Visited for lunch on a Wednesday. Tried to phone to book earlier in day but no reply and no answerphone. Tried another number, which turned out to be the office but told not able to be put through, must ring the restaurant direct again. Still no reply. Arrived anyway. Harassed bar staff (running out of beer!) gave bad impression, and was single-handed ly serving drinks and acting as waitress. Beef salad inedible - literally suitable for making shoes. One member of our party ordered mushroom stroganoff, another creamy mushrooms on toast. These turned out to be the same thing - with rice or toast! On seeing instant coffee on the menu, we decided against deserts or coffees. Even leaving wasn't easy. The credit card machine wasn't working because the phone wasn't working. Never, ever again.

A visit worth forgetting.......the very worst lunch I have ever had.A traditional Sunday lunch should not be the hardest culinary test to execute for even the most basic skilled cook/chef,but what was presented to myself and wife last Sunday can only be described as awful,abysmal,pathetic etc. On arrival at the reception/bar I observed cardboard boxes on the counter and other items,(untidy !)including unwashed glasses etc,the staff were all very young,and dressed in jeans(not a good 1st impression)Taking our order for the roast beef,I naturally expected,not unreasonably a fair portion of good roast beef,Yorkshire pudding,roast potatoes,maybe roast parsnips and a selection of vegetables,served hot in/on serving dishes,with accompanying gravy boat and condiments. What was eventually presented was the following,1st to arrive was a very small dish (cold) containing carrots and some over cooked Brussels Sprouts,both cold,several minutes later the plates arrived(again cold!)on which was couple of slices of luke warm beef,an undercooked (raw in the middle.....due I believe to being cooked in muffin tins!)Yorkshire pudding,and roasted (possibly in a deep fat fryer) New potatoes,very wet in the centre,undoubtedly the wrong variety of potatoes,and I suspect left over from previous days business,the whole thing was amateurish and not the work of a competent cook.My thoughts were conveyed to the young woman who appeared to be in charge and they were met with a total lack of interest or concern and did not seem at all bothered or surprised,she did in fact wish us to enjoy the rest of our day! The experience was to say the least awful,from the beginning to the end,and should this regime continue it will have a negative effect on the neighbouring brewing business,despite being unconnected,my advice to anyone considering paying £11 95 for Sunday lunch at this establishment is simple,do not waste your time,your money nor the effort to get there you will be more than disappointed.Finally,having e mailed the proprietor of our disappointment I have not as at 17/4/2015 received any response whatsoever,that I think says it all!

Currently closed since Easter Monday, although the Brewery shop is still open- A great venue hope it opens again soon

The location is a dream and being way out in the countryside next door to the brewery you couldn't dream of a better location.The old hall has been turned into a restaurant and whilst the food is good and the location is fantastic there is something missing....Was it the slow service, or the harsh wooden seating, or the seats being too close together or the initial welcome not being genuinely warm or perhaps rushed......it may have been all of those...But the question has to be why we don't return regularly when the location is a dream ?The answer we think lies in the fact that there are so many other places around where you can walk in a receive a personable warm and welcoming greeting - that it makes you feel like you want to return.Therefore, we shall return but not soon enough perhaps for the owners trying to run the business.Perhaps it's time to review the "customer experience".

This was a super night out with friends and family. Again St Peter's Hall Restaurant provided a fantastic dinner and What If? Productions enthralled us throughout with their brilliant acting and intriguing Murder Mystery plot. The medieval Great Hall at St Peter's is the perfect venue for this entertainment and what a privilege to dine in such historic surroundings.As always, the hospitality and service was extremely friendly and professional, the complimentary wine and beer on arrival was most welcome, and the 3 course dinner was outstanding. The choice of meals for each course was diverse and catered for all tastes and preferences - in fact - we were all spoiled for choice!!What If? Productions had us on the edge of our seats right to the very end - and tested everyone's powers of detection to the limit!!We can't wait for the next Murder Mystery Dinner at this brilliant restaurant. Congratulations to all concerned for putting on such a fantastic evening.

8 of us attended the WhatIF production's Murder Mystery dinner at St Peters on 1 March.Food was superb. I always take photos of my meals but this was so delicious that all I had photos of were empty plates!The WhatIF Theatre company provided an excellent Murder Mystery to accompany our dinner. I didn't guess who did it but had great fun trying!!!

This was my first visit to St Peter's Hall. Having lived in the area for over 10 years I can't believe I have missed out on this gem for so long.Everything I experienced was a delight. The service; food; value and atmosphere was excellent. The Brancaster Mussels I had were the biggest and tastiest I have ever had.I would highly recommend St Peter's to anyone who is looking for the complete dining experience. Allow yourself time to have a wander around the historical Hall.Can't wait to visit again and to bring friends along.

Lovely starter and delicious dessert. However, the highlight of our meal was by far the fillet steak. At most restaurants the steak is not to my liking. I like steak briefly introduced to a pan then plated up. I ordered my fillet blue and it came just to my liking. They even came to check that it was rare enough for me. My husband's rare steak was equally perfect. We couldn't have ask for a better night. It wasn't fussy or over complicated. The hall itself is beautiful and we will be returning for our wedding anniversary.

We all enjoyed our meals. The white bait starter and a main course of steak and peppercorn sauce which were particularly good as was the confit of duck with noodles. Sadly had to go home for birthday cake and miss the puddings. Classical music or non at all would be better. Roger Stretton

We had a relaxed family lunch, selecting two out of three courses from the menu. Varied choices for mains and for desserts, and all agreed everything was prepared to a high standard, and plenty of it. In fact, two courses made for a very satisfying lunch.The Hall has a great atmosphere; a pleasant, intimate bar with a welcoming fire and a wonderful dining room, all authentic and full of interest, not a single "artificial, distressed beam" in sight. A tour of the rest of the Hall is also recommended.The service provide by the staff was faultless, very in keeping with the surroundings. A most enjoyable visit, we will return.

st. peters have replied saying that they have reviewed the menu to makes choices clearer. Well done for listening and after telling others what a good meal it is they have since visited and have been most pleased. Keep up the good work St. Peters and thankyou for your attention to your customers.

My husband and I went for a meal last night to celebrate our 27th wedding anniversary.Its a beautiful place and we enjoyed our starter and main course, but unfortunately the dessert let it down. My husband had the cheese board priced £6.95, he was very disappointed with it. I had the marshmallow brownie with ice cream, the brownie was nowhere as good as all the other brownies I have tried (and I've tried a lot).I certainly would go back to try other things off the main menu, but I'd probably skip dessert. Their chips are some of the nicest I've had in a restaurant. I don't usually have chips, but I saw some being served to another customer and they looked so good I just had to try them. I would recommend St Peters Hall to others, and we certainly will be going back again. Next time I think we will try lunch, as it would be nice to see it in daylight.

We took our sister-in-law Barbara out to lunch with friends on the 3rd of January, this was her first visit to St Peters Hall, She found the setting and the Restaurant absolutely 'wonderful' We were spoilt for choice when looking at the menu. Barbara was in raptures when served her Cod and Chips - She enjoyed every mouthful and stated that these were the best fish and chips she had ever tasted :). The service was welcoming and attentive, the pace of the meal was 'just right' we were not rushed in any way. I would highly recommend St Peters Hall for any occasion. Looking forward to out next visit

Together with friends we enjoyed a midweek light lunch here at this picturesque hall. As always the choice on the Light Lunch Menu - any 2 courses for £10 - was very varied - and we were all spoiled for choice! The service was warm and friendly and the food beautifully presented and delicious - and plenty of it! This is a lovely relaxing place to eat and drink - we could barely drag ourselves away from the log fire when it was time to go home! It is without doubt my most favourite restaurant in East Anglia. I recommend it unreservedly - come along - believe me you will be impressed and delighted!

We visited here for our 12th Wedding Anni just before Christmas. Usually we tend to go elsewhere in the UK for a night or two but this time we wanted to stay local.Anyway, we arrived a few mins before our booked time and were promptly ushered in to the bar area where we got some drinks and were given menus to peruse.After about 10 minutes we gave our food order and were then seated in the dining hall. Woe, what an impressive room!For starter, the wife had pate. She said it was simply delicious. She couldn't fault it at all. I didn't have a starter because I'm more of a pudding person so I wanted to make sure I left room!For the main, I had the steak and ale pie and this was very nice. The pie came with some seasonal vegetables which too were nice. The only gripe I would have is that I would have liked a little more pie. It wasn't small, just that it was so tasty I wanted a few more mouth fulls!!!!The wife opted for the beer battered haddock and I have to say that portion of fish on her plate was one biggest I have every seen, It was served with home made chips and a good dollop of mushy peas. She could only manage 1/2 of the fish and chips as there was just too much for her, but what she did eat she thoroughly enjoyed. I had a taste too and it was very very nice!For pudding I had the sticky toffee pudding with ice cream and that was just divine!The services was very good and non intrusive. ie: you hardly knew they were there and yet the plates got cleared and we always had drinks! :)As for price, it was a bargain and I think I paid about £55 for the lot. In fact I drove home thinking I mustn't have paid for something but my wife assured me I had paid for everything and it's just that the prices weren't astronomical like some of the places around here! Excellent work St Peters staff!!!!

We were celebrating a friend's birthday and the four of us thoroughly enjoyed our lunch in the historic Great Hall. A superb choice of meals was available from the Menu. We could choose to have a Starter and Main Course or Main and Dessert. The food was cooked to perfection and beautifully presented as always. What wonderful value for money too.

This was a really excellent evening. The entertainment was provided by WhatIf? Theatre Productions and they are to be applauded for their performance. The food. Well, it was delicious and of a very high standard. Portions are certainly not scrimped on, and I was a bit disappointed that I had to leave some of my main to ensure I had room for my pud! Stuart and his team are to be commended for the exceptional restaurant they are running. Oh, and have recommended a family friend hold their wedding there too - the building and location are just stunning. Just waiting for the confirmed date for the next Murder Mystery Night!

The evening was a Murder Mystery evening - I was uncertain about this however my wife booked the tickets so I was going - our meal was - a prawn and crayfish tail salad, for the main event I had tender braised steak in a rich bordelaise sauce with herb dumplings, my wife having chicken breast with a fresh tarragon, mushroom and chestnut sauce all served with fresh veg and a choice of new pots or chips, pudding was double choc cheese cake and champagne and raspberry jelly with cream & shortbread. The murder mystery experience was provided by What If productions, the whole evening was fantastic from the moment we arrived until the very end. Great Food, Great Entertainment and Great Service an evening I would not have missed and will be looking forward to the next one - we will be returning in the very near future to discover more tasty treats on the menu :)

warm welcome and seated quickly. Lovely starter and main. My hubby ate pollock which was tasty and i had beef and ale pie, Delicious, My only downside was that I would have preferred to choose between a starter or a dessert for £10 for two courses. The surroundings were amazing. I will be back.

This was our first visit to St Peters Hall and we were not disappointed, I had the swordfish with prawn and a caper butter sauce with salad leaves and chips and my husband had pollock in a beer batter with chips and peas both meals were of the highest standard and the service was excellent The night we were there a local band called Bedwood was playing in the background which enhanced our evening greatly. The Hall it's self was a unique venue the staff were both friendly and efficient.. Looking forward to our next visit on the 2nd November 'murder mystery' with great excitement :)

A historical Hall with original features, beautiful locally sourced food and great service. What more is there to say?!Fabulous, just fabulous!

In fact, it was all so enjoyable that we returned the very next night. The medieval manor's great hall boasts Gothic traceried windows, an amazing tapestry, and a huge chandelier and fireplace. Some of the 'chairs' are actually beautifully carved church pews. And as for the food, well we almost forgot our manners and licked the plates clean. My spinach, cheese, and red pepper tart was delicious, and the salad was dressed with a very moreish herby vinaigrette. My partner's chicken liver pate came with red onion marmalade and this, and his fish pie main course, all disappeared rapidly. Perfect puddings were a summer fruit pavlova and a plum crumble with custard.

The menu is varied using local ingredients. It is well cooked and beautifully presented.well cooked and well presented, This is a lovely setting for all occasions and there is a good wine list too.

Saturday evening was our third visit to the stunning and unique surroundings of St Peter's Hall Restaurant - the previous two being for the Thursday Fish Supper and Friday Steak Night - so we knew we could expect another excellent meal.Having completed earlier in the day a gruelling 300 mile drive from the very soggy Western Lakes our need was for good food and plenty of it!!! The recently appointed Chef certainly delivered - and more!!We started with the Anti Pasti Platter - all our favourite foods on one enormous wooden board - Prosciutto, Chorizo and Salami meats, Mini Sweet Red Peppers stuffed with Feta Cheese, Shell-on Prawns (with lemon slice), assorted Stuffed Olives, warmed Ciabatta with a selection of dipping oils - a feast in itself - and not to be forgotten - the Finger Bowl!!For our main course we both chose the excellent Steak, Ale & Mushroom Pie with Flaky Pastry Top, served with probably the best mashed potato I have tasted and a great selection of seasonal vegetables - cooked to perfection with that subtle al dente "bite" to them - why can't I cook veggies like that??Our pudding was Spiced Apple & Plum Crumble with Custard - so tasty and followed by Cappuccino coffees. Not to be forgotten of course is the local brew from the on site St Peter's Brewery!In all a very satisfying meal - perfectly prepared and served by charming members of staff - and greatly enjoyed.To complete the evening as we drove down the long drive away from the Hall to the road a Tawny Owl perched in the moonlight on a fence post bade us "goodnight" - a fantastic end to yet another perfect dining experience at this great restaurant.

My partner and I are a big fan of St Peters' beer and not much of their selection is available in the supermarket. We often head up here to buy a case of beer and always stop off at the restaurant for a drink if not a meal. The food we have had here so far has always been good and very reasonably priced. When the weather is warm, we love to sit out by the moat - it is very peaceful and we enjoy watching the ducks. Otherwise, the bar area is cosy and the banquet hall very tastefully done. I highly recommend this place.

I fell in Love with St peters Hall and its surroundings, whilst searching for my wedding venue, When we finally got to visit, it was a winner hands down just for its beauty. Having yet to try the cusine, We took my mum out for her birthday lunch, and oh what a lovely day for it. 4th July, flowers were blooming and sun was shining, we were welcomed in and their were freshly picked wild flowers on the tables, the food was cooked quickly and was a complete delight, We made use of the 2 courses for £10 offer and all had a bit of everyone elses it was just so yummy. I cannot wait for my wedding breakfast now, I am extremely confident in the menu and the chef to make my day very special.

Yesterday evening my husband and I dined, for the first time - but definitely not the last, at the beautiful St Peter's Hall Restaurant, South Elmham, near Bungay.On arrival we were greeted by charming members of staff. After enjoying our first drinks sitting outside in the glorious Suffolk evening sunshine, we were seated in the Great Hall in this most attractive 13th Century building - so were able to admire the stunning architecture and furnishings whilst also enjoying our meal.We both opted for the Friday night "Steak Night" menu. The very generously sized rump steaks were cooked to perfection and accompanied by delicious chips, large mushroom, grilled tomato and salad. It was delicious!!We were definitely spoiled for choice with the "Home Made Desserts" menu but after much deliberation my husband opted for the sticky toffee pudding with locally made vanilla ice cream and I chose the chocolate brownie with stem ginger ice cream (again locally made). Two great desserts and again very generous portions!! The service at table was excellent and the whole "St Peter's experience" was fantastic. We shall definitely return and very soon too - I hope!!In all - a superb meal, in beautiful surroundings at a very affordable price. A great experience!!

We visited this restaurant for lunch last Saturday 22nd of June . I made the booking on line and found it a very friendly process . The table was only for the wife and myself but upon arrival we were welcomed and taken straight to our table where we were offered drinks . The most interesting thing about this place is the St.Peters Brewery is right next door and offers the range of drinks which they brew on site . I decided on the English Lager and my better half tried the grapefruit beer . We both decided they were very good and a second glass was ordered . The starters ooked very good but instead we moved straight to the main course for me the St Peters burger topped with cheddar and the better half going for the pan fried plaice and saffron pots. Both plates were quickly cleared and I liked the way the chips were served with the burger in a large tea mug good touch .Just room for a dessert for both of us strawberry cheesecake & Rich chocolate pot . Can recommend prices very reasonable and a lovely country drive to reach this wonderful eating place . We have decided on our next visit to try the Friday night steak night looking forward to it already .

I visited with a party if 5 on a Sunday and had an early lunch. The meals were a reasonable cost, staff friendly and beautiful surroundings. We all enjoyed our meals - delicious desserts - although the cheese board could have had a bit more fruit with it. It's a bit difficult to find but well worth the trip - and the brewery shop next door has good deals on the beer.

This was my second visit to St Peter's Hall. On this occasion I was pleased to take my parents along to also sample the excellent dining experience on offer. No one was disappointed. The welcome was very warm; the food exquisite and the service exceptional. I cannot rate it high enough. Thank you; I look forward to coming again.
