The 12 Lost Churches in Suffolk Coastal

This place is a little gem, food is amazing, Sunday Roast was also amazing, staff were lovely and Friendly, highly recommend. We stayed at caravan park which was also fantastic.

Visited for the first time to sample a Sunday carvery. The food was amazing. My wife is vegetarian and they also catered for her - very kind to provide veggie gravy and nut roast. Staff friendly and service very good. Highly recommend.

Slow service due to waiter/barman being on his own. We wouldn’t have minded the long wait from ordering to receiving food if both our meals were nice. However whilst the lamb burger was good the aloo chatt was not - the paneer cheese was overcooked and rock hard. We had to ask for cutlery so this was another wait whilst our food sat on the table. No napkins provided. Ambiance was pleasant and the waiter was friendly.

We have been camping annually on site for ten plus years and cannot recommend highly enough. We would just like to say we ate here twice this weekend and the food was great, but the carvery we ate today was outstanding and great value for money. Meats, veggies and Roasties were fresh, hot and delicious... Yorkies home made...Cauli cheese was immense. Well done to all the staff for their great attitude and attention to detail.

On arrival man behind bar didn't speak, just looked at us.... Good food. Attentive staff. Also.Chat, my only comment would be, a bit dry. More pomegranate sauce, or plain yoghurt on the side. Thank you. Ps dont forget dessert spoons and napkins

One of the best roast dinners we have tasted, hot & delicious, great price too, lovely polite, friendly staff. Thank you 🙂

Our latest visit was Saturday night 8th June, 4 adults and a 17 yr old lad, lovely Pork belly starters, crispy beef noodles, lamb burgers and the burger for mains, and huge desserts Eton mess and Chocolate Brownie, all of a very high standard, really tasty and great value. Highly recommended, and very dog friendly. We all loved it.

Great food and amazing service . Wonderful location. Great playground. What's not to love. Scott and his team to an amazing job

Just had a carvery with a dessert, very lovely meal. Staff friendly and working very hard . Most enjoyable …………………………..

We arrived after a few years away and we were not disappointed! The carvery was full of flavour and well presented. The kitchen staff, who served the carvery, are friendly and they share a laugh with the customers and each other alike, you don’t often see this in establishments now. It’s refreshing. Four choices of meat, all of which were delicious! It’s very clear to me that the staff work hard and are willing to help as much as they can. Sarah leads the team well and we were welcomed with a smile and friendly manner. We have recommended this place to most of friends and family!

We have had a carvery here several times now! Our hoomans love it because the food and the beer is outstanding . We love it as it is so dog friendly. We get spoilt by all of the staff and get biscuits off them all. The staff there even look after us when our hoomans go up to the carvery to get their food. We have to say, the chipolatas were delicious!

We attended for new years eve dinner which was outstanding. Great choice on the menu , so we had scallops cooked to perfection followed by pork loin for my wife and beef rib for me. Cheese plate and lemon meringue baked alaska for dessert. Food was well presented, beautifully cooked and good portion size. Service was attentive without being over bearing and nothing was too much trouble for the team. Well stocked bar with real ale and selection of premium lagers, cider and pale ale. We had a fantastic night and met some lovely people. Thank you for a wonderful evening. We'll be back soon. Albert and Gertie xx (

We had our first New Year's experience at Cliff House this year. The meal was delicious and beautifully presented. The staff were attentive and made us feel very welcome and the entertainment was an added bonus. Thank you all, for making the evening so special.

As someone who has worked in this industry for 6 years, I understand wanting to go home on a Saturday night after a long day… however, being rude to customers telling them to hurry up and finish their drink? To the point where you are taking away a non-empty glass? That’s a no. You call last orders, expect people to get another and take their time. Especially if it’s a party/group booking! It wasn’t even midnight and we were being shoved out the door so they could lock up. My friends who had dinner sent multiple plates back as their food was cold. Seems standards have really dropped recently.

We have visited before and loved it so we decided to take our in-laws and we celebrated my upcoming birthday tomorrow. Unfortunately the visit was extremely disappointing. They were understaffed and extremely disorganised. We were sat at our table and were never asked for drinks, we were just sat there waiting. I had to get up and go and find someone to give them my drinks order. The drinks then took around 15 mins to be bought over to the table. When I went to get my carvery - I asked for pork. When I went over to the condiments/sauce station I noticed there was no apple sauce. So .. I asked for some. 3 members of staff then had a conversation about whether they had any. They all seemed really puzzled? They told me they didn’t have any. Whilst I went to the serving area I watched a female member of staff eat some meat behind the carvery station and she made a joke and said “ahh just testing it” I found her extremely unprofessional and I also saw her drinking what was quite possibly a mug of coffee/tea a little later into the visit whilst we had been sitting waiting for our plates to be cleared. She was acting as though there was nothing to do? I believe she may have been the supervisor 😳 The table next to us got up and left after they’d eaten and they hadn’t had their plates cleared. I had to ask for our plates to be cleared. I also asked for more drinks to which they were dumped on the end of the table. Once the plates had finally been cleared, we sat and waited “again” with the hope that we were going to be offered desserts? .. so I got up AGAIN to go and ask. I was then told they weren’t offering desserts today? 🤷🏼‍♀️ even though there were various dessert menus spread out around the restaurant on nearby tables? They could offer us ice cream in cardboard pots with wooden spoons built in with the lid? I then had to get up AGAIN to go and ask for the bill. That then took another 10 minutes! The staff took no care and attention towards us throughout the whole visit. Needles to say it was embarrassing and such a shame because we wanted the same experience we’d had once before. The food was delicious but the service and attitudes and work ethic of the staff were very very poor. Won’t be visiting again.

Excellent carvery. We've now been 4 times and consistently good. Good selection of beers. Staff very efficient

It gets a 3 cos the waiting staff were nice- the food was poor. Ordered 2 fish and chips- fish batter was soft and ‘chips’ were like last night’s undercooked spuds, criminal. Such a shame- we’d stayed at this resort previously and food was 9/10, clearly standards have slipped

My wife and I have happily dined at the restaurant many times. The staff do their best. Sadly though The 12 Lost Churches has let us down twice recently. We have had to wait over an hour and a half for our main meal. Last evening it was unacceptable after a period of nearly two hours we had to leave without being served. Great shame.

Booked a table but didn’t need to although was told on arrival at campsite, I would be best to as it was very busy. Cannot fault the restaurant very nice inside. Started by the menu, now I know a lot of places have limited choices but 5 mains isn’t very much of a choice at & all very basic & I felt expensive for what was on offer. I had scampi which consisted of 8 small pieces, hand cut chips , which did look overdone, mushy peas. My husband had a Cajun chicken burger & fries, again nothing special, yet £15 for scampi was ludicrous, we didn’t opt for any desserts as I believe these were around £8.50. Our bill for no more than a basic meal & not much of it with a couple of drinks £53!! The service started ok but after the meal we sat for a good half an hour waiting for someone to come back but nothing, so my husband had to go & pay the bill, I wouldn’t have minded but they were hardly rushed if their feet. It’s a shame as the place is very nice but we chose not to eat their again for one the prices & lack of choice & service.

We stayed at a friends chalet in Cliffhouse and had an amazing stay. Three friends and we ate in the restaurant on the Friday, Lee was super welcoming and the chips were home made. Good honest food and great value for money. Very calm and lovely location An easy walk to The Ship at Dunwich and with Southwold, Aldeburgh on the doorstep a great base to explore Suffolk

New management and chef, all friendly and helpful. Able to supply gluten free choices from an extensive menu. Lamb chops and the stir fry were both delicious and well presented. Attentive staff and nice atmosphere. We are looking forward to coming here again. I would happily recommend visiting this restaurant. Thanks to all the staff.

Fantastic staff, amazing food and superb environment. Eaten here twice and both experiences were great. Highly recommended

Although we have stayed at the adjoining caravan site many times (excellent) , we have never eaten at the restaurant . Our party of 4 adults , two grandchildren, had a great meal . It was Sunday lunch, choice of three meats and as much vegetables as you could eat. Huge Yorkshire puddings. The service was very adequate, and all food was well cooked. Especially if you are hungry the self service of vegetables was very welcome. So thank you to all at the restaurant, we will definitely visit again, probably eat mid week with the main menu., which looked very encouraging.

Thursday night, only 2/3 tables were occupied. Service was slow, ordered at 6.15, was served at 7.10. We had no starters. One of the meals didn’t arrive so was quite late, ok we wasn’t charged for it, even so! My daughters prawn curry was no more than a starter costing £18.50, about 6 prawns and rice that was lumpy, it looked and was unpleasant, no accompaniment or naan. My chicken burger was overcooked with dismal fries. Had to go to the staff to order wine. Avoid. Certainly shall not go back until there’s a vast improvement. Better

The team here are so accommodating. A huge thank you to chef Ben for altering our meal to allow for allergies. The bar staff were so welcoming and friendly, Cam and the lady with pink hair who seemed to work everywhere, she checked us in served us in the shop and then on the bar were fantastic and she always seemed so friendly despite being in demand. Everyone seems to be willing to go the extra mile here

Sunday lunch 2 a penny. but then I found 12 list churches. well great service great food great times.. looking forward to Easter holidays. tabke off 14 .. thank you

I went for a mid-week lunch at the 12 Lost Churches whilst staying at the onsite campsite. With just three tables of two, including the better half and me, it was very quiet during my visit. It’s a good job my wife has a habit of cutting her burgers in half before eating as it was raw in the middle and had to be sent back for further cooking. When I go out for lunch with my wife I like to actually eat at the same time as her rather than us both eating on our own whilst the other watches. I totally understand mistakes happen in stressful busy kitchens but it was pretty much dead on our visit so I struggle to see what went wrong. The chap serving behind the bar and taking the orders spent more time out the back or in the kitchen (or elsewhere) than behind the bar available to service the customers. This was a pain when I had to go searching for him to get the raw burger cooked a bit more, but actually saved me money as it restricted the amount of drinks I bought. A desert would have been nice though. At £15.50 for a basic and small burger, fist full of skinny fries (that are clearly bought in and freezer to fryer jobbies) and a small pot of homemade coleslaw my lunch was pretty expensive and not good value for money. Given my experience I cannot and would not recommend the 12 Lost Churches restaurant, which is a shame since the nearest alternative is in Dunwich.

Fabulous lunch that included necessary adaptations for gluten and cows milk intolerances. Chef Ben and barman Cam were outstanding in ensuring everything was as it should be.

Awful. A hot dog with stale roll, a fistful of chips and a small pot of baked beans at around £15 is simply ridiculous. The hot dog including contents would have cost pence and the chips ditto. Pity because when I went for a sunday...

Staff couldn't care less so walked out. Loads of free tables but apparently no space for a drink. Much better places around

In general the food is to be fair always a good standard,the seats are comfortable and the lighting is low which makes for a relaxing atmosphere .... unfortunately the service provided is reminiscent of a East London pie 'n mash shop..as soon as you are...

Stayed at Cliff House Holiday Park and a what a wonderful surprise this place was, great beer, good food (especially the veggie sausage rolls) and friendly service.

Had a lovely meal, they catered for numerous allergies the food was outstanding also the service was outstanding fully recommended

We are where last year and it was good. This time there were twelve of us, including kids, for Sunday carver. The roasts were good, including the veggie option which was tasty. Lots of food. Staff were very friendly and helpful.

We booked the restaurant for a family party of seven, including three youngsters. The menu , specials and food was very acceptable, with excellent staffing and service. We have eaten here several times and never disappointed. Good value and large portions. We will definitely return...

Such a shame that the service outweighs the experience. Arrived the Thursday before Waster and told we had to book. Thinking it was super busy and popular we booked, to find we were 2 or 8 people in there. Easter Monday we asked if we...

Beautiful quality food. Hubby and I had the fish and chips and the burger and chips. Superb quality, excellent flavour and we couldn't finish the chips. Staff were friendly and welcoming. Highly recommend.

Ate here on 2 occasions whilst staying at Cliff House, every meal ordered was really tasty and much better value than other eateries in the area. Lovely relaxed atmosphere with very polite and attentive young staff. Carvery was excellent. There is a main menu and...

Had a lovely Sunday lunch today . Always feel well looked after by the friendly staff and surroundings .

Stopped at the Cliffhouse site in one of the Cabins, so one evening we decided to go to the Restuarant & Bar on site. Very good Drinks/Food/Service will definitely be back.

Last Thursday we spent a very pleasant evening in the restaurant. Despite the obvious restrictions we had delicious meals made all the more enjoyable by our waitress, Amelia, who was very helpful, efficient and friendly

Excellent food, friendly & welcoming service. The food is currently served in (quality) takeaway containers but this not detract anything from the freshly cooked tasty food of generous portions! The staff have clearly worked hard to adhere to government guidelines, putting the necessary measures in...

Our first and only time eating here, we did the eat out to help out scheme, but they doubled there prices on the menu, meaning no real saving. What a con! If that wasn’t bad enough, the entire meal tasted the same. All salty so...

Happily Sunday roasts have returned. The system is different-order your meat from Jo who carves it fresh, it is bought to your table with vegetables etc. The standard & quality are still excellent. Will be back again soon. Thank you staff.

Have previously been here for carvery which was good, hence return. Sadly was not the case today. Veg were fine. Meat pretty poor and yorkshire was practically incinerated. Not sure how you can put that on a plate at all without being totally embarrassed. Spoon...

Staying at Cliff House and having used the 12 lost churches numerous times I ordered a takeaway for four people during these difficult times. The food (fish and chips) was waiting for me bang on time, the staff were polite and the food was piping...

Not only is the food at this place brilliant, but it comes with beautiful decor and extremely friendly staff who are always smiling and very professional

Not a lover of carveries or a roast dinner out ..... as I do a mean one myself . However I see this place as an absolute reason for Sunday lunch out after a dog walk on the Heath ! Beef deliciously tender just enough rare , tat ties to die for and great veg. Bread and butter pudding added to the sheer delight then roll back to the campervan to sleep it off !

Great restaurant with the option to eat in a cosy seating area in the bar area its dog friendly in this area but not in the restaurant which you would expect all staff are so very friendly and helpful as are all of the staff at Cliff House where the restaurant is situated and the food is fantastic and not over priced.. Can't wait for our next visit.. Oh and you can visit the restaurant without being on the site ie camping or in a lodge but it is advisable to book.. And it's a great carvery on a Sunday

This was probably the neat carvery we have had in a very long time. Great choice of veg nicely cooked, huge yorkshires and lovely roast potatoes. The meat was tender and a choice of pork, beef, chicken or gammon. The restaurant was very busy and the young lad serving was amazing so polite and professional even though he was clearly run off his feet. It would have been a 5 however the young lady who seated us and took our drinks order did not explain at any point how the carvery worked so we sat for a while wondering if we just went up or waited to be told to go up in the end we had to find someone to ask. Didn't spoil the meal but needs to be thought about for us first timers. We will definitely be back again.

Got here at 11.45 asked for a table for 3. Were told fully booked , but after serving us a round of drinks! Stood at the bar like lemons. Still many tables free. 5 waiting staff just giggling and standing about.First and last visit.At the very least advise before serving.

Booked table for 4 people at1330 arrived and was seated and ordered our drinks have been several times before and told lots of family and friends how good it was. We had not been for a while with Xmas and such we then told to go the carvery when Ready, we got to it to find no chicken or turkey, as one of our party do not eat beef lamb pork, we found out there was no turkey or chicken. If when we phoned our booking they would have reserved a portion however as we did not know or told at the time we did not so we had to leave and find some where else to go not impressed paid for drinks and left. Not even offered a veg option

What a really lovely restaurant with great staff and a lovely atmosphere. The food was really tasty and nicely presented.

We visited this restaurant in the summer. We were staying on the excellent camp site on the heath. I had booked a table for 6 people for 12.30pm. We went for a lovely walk on the heath in the morning but unfortunately got lost and didn't arrive at the restaurant until after 2pm. The restaurant was very busy and I feared we had lost our spot..and we were starving!I need not of worried. The staff were so friendly and accommodating. They sat us down straight away. We all had a superb roast dinner, with generous helpings of meet and fresh green vegetables. I have booked again for next month and can't wait to try the Sunday lunch again.The perfect way to round off a weekend in the caravan.

Visited here a couple of times on our latest trip to their caravan touring park and were certainly not disappointed. The bar area is good, but quite small considering the size of the park. We have visited before and it can be very busy at high season, but additional seating is available outside. At this time of year however, it is very relaxed but you still need to book a table if you are looking to eat at weekends.The staff are very friendly and attentive, the food and beer great - what more can you ask for. Mains are about £13 and puds £4.50, beer reasonable too. There are also options for vegetarians.

We decided to visit for a second time as we had had a good initial experience some months before. We weren't disappointed. We ate in the main restaurant which was very pleasant. The waiting staff were all excellent, there was a young lad in particular who was very 'customer focused' and couldn't have been more helpful. I had the scampi and my wife had a burger. The quality was first class and so well presented. We had a wonderful meal and look forward to our return again sometime.

My mum and dad stumbled along this place out of pure chance. They brought me and my son back after a stunning Sunday dinner. I have to say, it was sumptuous and I’d happily return.

Only had one meal in here but what we had was well cooked and tasted lovely. Dog friendly in certain areas inside and outside. Would definitely eat there again and you don't have to be staying on the caravan park to eat there.

Never been here before thought give it a go recommend by a few friends. There was five of us all had the roast and veg all local products very well cooked and tasty we all enjoyed the meal. very good value for money.will be going again that’s for sure.

Visited today having stayed at the campsite for the weekend, food was fresh and tasty, staff were very attentive and helpful, didn't mind getting me extra gravy that I had missed when dishing up my food. Super price only thing that stopped it being excellent was the meat was a little dry!

Myself and my wife have been staying at the Mother in Law's lodge at Cliff House for a number of years and have eaten at the restaurant several times but this was our first experience of the Sunday Carvery. It was excellent ! I had the roast pork which was delicious and succulent. The beef, which Mrs O had, was equally good and the portions a good size. The choice of accompaniments, which you serve yourself, was very varied and all really well cooked. The price is set at £9.95 per head and I think this was excellent value. First time but definitely not the last!

Having walked along the beach from Dunwich to the beach steps to enter the holiday park we found a good pub restaurant in their grounds.

We visited while staying on the adjoining campsite. Very much enjoyed the quality of the food and the surroundings. Much needed after struggling to put up an awning and look after 2 young children in the torrential rain.

Enjoyed another dinner at 12 Lost Churches with my wife. We both chose the Steak Pie on recommendation of Scott, who told us he had personally made the mashed potato. We were advised that the Pie had been homemade by Chef Andy and this was Scott’s favourite.

Dined in The 12 Lost Churches this evening. Food delicious, fresh ingredients nicely presented. I had Dover sole with sauté potatoes and season veg including heritage carrots and asparagus. Lovely. The lasagne, both veg and meat option was also enjoyed by my table. Service good, and we were able to reserve a table which allowed us to bring our dog with us. Fantastic.

Love this beautiful place, I've camped this time so apart from the rain I've no complaints. The ground, site, restaurant, bar and staff are all really good. I recommend the haddock and chips for lunch it is gorgeous. I'll definitely be back later in my travels.

Food was very nice and staff friendly. They seemed a little short staffed though. We ate in there twice and enjoyed it both times. Good food for kids.

This is one of the best campsite bar / restaurants that we have experienced. We didn't eat so can't comment on the food, but the atmosphere, service and facilities were very good. The rooftop terrace area is great for a drink on a sunny afternoon (it catches the last of the evening sun whilst lots of the site is in shade). We found the staff very friendly and helpful. Dogs are especially welcome :)

Had a great time at cliff house and the food in the restaurant was very nice. Unfortunately the restaurant manager was a very rude and arrogant person and the lady Who I believe ran the bar was the same. We felt so upset at her attitude that we finished our drinks and left. Will definitely go back to Cliff House but stay away from 12 churches. We enjoy a drink but we won’t be doing it there again.

Andy and Jo have totally changed this place around. They have an amazing team who are always more than happy to help. The food is perfect

We were staying on the touring site and booked the Resturant for an evening meal. My wife had the lasagne with a large bowl of salad, I had the burger both were homemade a very tasty.

We took our grandson ( aged 12 - massive appetite!) for lunch here as had been highly recommended by a friend. Wow what a wonderful lunch it was too. The meats ( choice of pork, beef and turkey ) were melt-in-your-mouth gorgeous - accompanied by the most amazing amount of choice of beautifully cooked vegetables along with the biggest Yorkshire puds I have ever seen!

I’ve always meant to try the 12 Lost Churches but only made it yesterday evening whilst meeting an old friend. It really is an amazing venue with a quite unassuming entrance. Beautifully designed with clearly separate area for drinking and dining but cleverly linked. The bar area has little booths for a feeling of privacy and only gripe is they are a little snug!

Last ate at 12 Lost Chruches about four years ago and it's still good. Generous choice and portions of usual carvery fayre, wide selection of vegetables etc. Apparently the desserts were good too, although I didn't have room... Look forward to returning when next in that area.

We stayed at Cliff house campsite, Dunwich, the restaurant/bar is onsite

What a lovely place. We were staying in the Cliff House camp site so decided to give this on site pub/restaurant a go. We weren’t disappointed. Great staff and amazing food. We had home made hummus to start followed by an enormous plate of fish and chips and a lovely curry. The night finished off with an amazing cheesecake.

Stayed here in Motorhome for 2 nights. Food very good fresh and tasty staff very helpful. In the bar area dog friendly

The restaurant has be remodelled since we last visited. It has been completed to a very high standard and the seating 'booths' make for a very sophisticated dining experience as does the decor. We had lunch in the bar area which was very nice. I had the Tuna Melt Panini and cup of soup (Parsnip and Apple) all of which was delicious. The service was prompt and friendly. A great place to eat.

We booked for new years eve back in July 2018 and were certainly not disappointed. As always, we were welcomed by polite and professional staff. Hats off to you all!! The refurbishment of the restaurant looks fabulous. All in all we had a great rocking new year's eve.

I took 40 people to this restaurant. On arrival we had a lovely warm welcome from Andy the owner. The venue was spotlessly clean and looking beautifully festive. The food was amazing and plentiful. The staff were not only friendly but so helpful. I would definitely recommend this venue

This is my first review, however my visit to the 12 Lost churches have left me outraged and disgusted and feel the need to warn other visitors. We had seen positive reviews for the site and had been looking forward to our visit, only to be sat with my wife and children to hear quite loudly and openly a discussion about a member of staffs `previous life'. I don't feel It's necessary to put any details of this discussion on here, but lets put it this way, it's left me and my wife with a very difficult discussion to be had with our children. We left feeling uncomfortable and angry when such a beautifully situated cosy restaurant was let down by outrageous talk by staff, and some to what I can only assume to be customers. I hope that this can be dealt with promptly so that other parents don't have to sit down and have this discussion with their children.

We have visited the bar a few times now but have never got round to sampling the food. So on our last visit, we thought we would book a table and give it a go. Well......... we were not disappointed. The wait was minimal, the service was exceptional and the food was amazing. The portion sizes we so very generous we had no room left for dessert All in all, a thoroughly tasty, enjoyable evening.

Superb food. Help yourself carvery 3 choices of meat. Service with a smile. Had steak and was cooked to perfection( best I’ve had in a long while) Only complaint I had was children running back and forth from the play area making lots of noise.

I would like to firstly say what a convenient restaurant for people using the campsite and how relaxing it was to sit and have a coffee while the children play in the park. Our first experience was of a very helpful barman but unfortunately at our second visit after asking when we could order and then waiting for the hour until that time we were then told that we would have to book a table. We wished they had said before as it was then too late to get food anywhere else. The most disappointing visit however was later in the holiday. I am honestly shocked that a manager of what looks and felt like a wonderful place to be can respond in such a negative and quite honestly bullying way. It is utterly disgusting how he is treating people in his restaurant and also in his responses to anything slightly negative on trip advisor. I have never come across anything like it. The food wasn’t bad the cleanliness was good, the staff were mostly friendly and helpful but we will now avoid this restaurant and are very likely to avoid the campsite due to his behaviour. We arrived on holiday to enjoy our friends and young children and were met by an abrupt, rude and unkind man. (Everything we are constantly trying to bring our children up not to be) in front of our large party including 9 children it was obvious he didn’t want such a group in his restaurant. There were some crossed wires with our booking which we apologised for but were met with extremely abrupt and rude comments “I’m only doing snacks, you can’t all eat, you’ll have to wait.” The negative reviews and his responses will give you an insight in to his manner. The final straw was when I tried to explain to the waitress what had happened; she continued to turn to another one of our party and smile sarcastically as not to acknowledge my explanation. An absolute disgraceful way to treat anybody let alone a customer. We completely understand we are a big party with lots of (well behaved) children but were treated in an absolutely awful way. I can not believe he is getting away with treating poleople like this and I would not reccomend the 12 churches because I would not want anyone else to be treated in this way.

Eight of us who were staying at Cliff House ate here and we're served by Millie who was very attentive, drinks arrived quickly and the timings for courses was perfect. The fish and chips was very good as was the burger. The food was excellent and I would recommend the restaurant to others.

My husband and I stopped here for a couple of days with the motorhome and ate in the restaurant both nights. The staff were lovely, the food was excellent, prices were very reasonable and there was a good choice, including vegetarian options.

We have never been let down with any of our visits to the 12 lost churches.

My partner and I ate here on Saturday 19th May, 2018. We were staying overnight on the campsite. We arrived at the 12 lost churches pub at 3pm, we didn't realize that the cafe closed at 3pm but the staff were very helpful and said no problem, they would still get us some food. Then again we ate in the restaurant in the evening, once again the staff were extremely helpful and welcoming, the food was excellent, I had ceaser salad, my partner had vegetarian burger, everything was so good including the service, I would definitely recommend the 12 lost churches and hope to eat here again.
