The Black Dog Deli in Suffolk Coastal

One star is too many. My coffee was served in a badly chipped 'cup'. There were heavy sticky deposits on outside of Stokes sauce bottles on the table; there was a lot of dirt and various deposits on the floor; vertical surfaces on chiller cabinet looked very unclean - overall a very grubby place. Probably has a high hygiene rating but the reality is the opposite. First and last visit. I recommend to avoid.

This chain may be fashionable, but a huge disappointment. Tasteless quiche with salad which consisted of chunks of cucumber past their best. No dressing, though the chef made some. On remarking on the quality of food, there was no apology made. I miss the previous Cafe who was vastly superior. Won't go again. :(

Just tried the new Black Dog in Saxmundham. It has a very cool vibe and wonderful coffee, as well as a cheerful welcome. This is a great asset to Saxmundham. The bread & pastries looked delicious. We had already eaten breakfast, but will definately try a bite to eat on our next return. The courtyard area will be super when Spring arrives.

Popped in here during a rainy day over the Christmas break. We both had a 'melt' which is 2 large thick pieces of sourdough with various fillings and then toasted. Both were lovely and perfect hangover food. Rest of the menu also looked good. Would recommened.

The Street food nights are amazing value for the quality and atmosphere. Very impromptu, easy going setup. Looks like booking will be essential though. Great welcome, coffee and various food options during the day. Chef area is in the cafe so easy to chat with Chefs and staff. Vegan options.
