The Bramford Cock in Mid Suffolk

Amazing service and food... The staff are so welcoming and willing to make sure you feel at home.. We are here for my daughters 17th birthday and she is enjoying every part of it... Will definitely come back again and will definitely recommend to others

Friendly place family pub safe for kids and dogs and even people

Lovely meals and reasonable prices.

Well unexpected birthday treat with some of the family, Must say the food was very good , would definitely go back, Staff very down to earth and pleasant, Only thing maybe update the furniture a little bit

It was a surprise birthday meal for me with 13 of us there.The staff were very friendly and helpful. The food was freshly cooked and absolutely first class. I would recommend this place to anyone.

We spent a few hours celebrating my daughters baby shower, on sunday afternoon, in the marquee in the garden. The landlady and barstaff were friendly, helpful and very accomodating, allowing us to put up decorations and providing extra tables and chairs at short notice. Everyone who attended enjoyed the afternoon. My family and I will definitely return for a meal in the near future.

Eaten here quite a few lunch times now & it's always lovely. Great choice of menu too.

Fantastic gluten free fish and chips.

Excellent pub and food and beer garden

Having driven 3 hours to stop there and told the barman on arrival the welcome was nothing short of unwelcoming We were there to watch the Lionessess and we understood that they couldn’t serve alcohol until 12 but we had called to book to watch and nobody mentioned that The place was stark and unfriendly The conservatory for lunch was extremely tired the seating dirty Our food order was wrong - twice and only 4 people there to eat I feel sad that the pub industry struggles these days but if you can’t be warm and welcoming to your customers how do you expect them to return We are in the area for 3 days but won’t be returning Please take care to improve how you make people feel so you can get more customers returning We want you to be successful

First time to this pub and chose it based on the location as I was meeting up with my sister for lunch at a point halfway between our homes. When we first walked in no-one really paid us any attention, but then a lady came over and was welcoming and asked us where we would like to sit. We chose the conservatory as it sounded nice - but it was very stark and there was a large group of people busy preparing for a party at the pub, so we honestly felt as if we were in the way. Also it wasn't a nice environment, so we opted to go back into the main pub area which was really nice and felt cosy. The food came out after a bit of a wait. I couldn't really fault my southern fried chicken burger and fries, although menu said it came with coleslaw and I got a rather tired portion of salad - with no mention of the change to the menu. My sister had chilli con carne but said there was hardly any flavour and certainly no kick to the chilli. We were asked if we wanted dessert, and although the menus were brought over we were then just left for some time. So clearly no-one was going to come back and see if we wanted a dessert!! So we decided to go elsewhere for a coffee and a dessert. We had to go up to the bar and pay, so service was really quite poor considering there was hardly anyone in the pub. I have no problem with going up to the bar to pay, but it had been table service up until then so we did feel a bit abandoned.

Just popped in for one. Very nice.

Been if a few times now with our little dog. Only had drinks so far. On our second visit the young barman remembered us and asked if we wanted the same drinks as last time. Its what I would call a real pub, with local characters. We expect a bit of pub banter instead of everyone just sitting at tables and playing with their phones. Was made very welcome and some of the regulars chatted with us, and that is nice. Will be going back very soon.

Thoroughly recommend this traditional, old fashioned country pub. Excellent home cooked good, served with a smile and a lot of laughs. Really enjoyed our evening meal. Thank you all.

Really disappointing evening. The food is not the complaint but the service was terrible. Had to fetch our own menus followed by cutlery and sauces. Food arrived with a meal missing, gave it a few minutes for it to follow but it never showed, we were never checked on and had to chase the meal up ourselves which had been forgotten. We had every intention to pay for our meal but did expect some compensation for the delay and poor service. When asked, the land lady was very rude, talking no accountability, just excuses. Thank you for our free meal but you should really take this and all the other poor reviews seriously.

Excellent food, and very friendly and entertaining staff! Highly recommended. Gluten free food options available and excellent quality with large portions

Been a couple of times now. Very friendly staff excellent beers. Dog friendly very important to us. Overall Excellent.

Not suitable for families, landlady is rude and uses foul language even when children are around. In fact she seems visibly agitated if children are around and enjoying themselves

Originally went to the Indian restaurant around the corner but closed due to gas leak.we called into this pub and the landlord and landlady could not do enough for us. They made us very welcome and the food was excellent will definitely go back . They turned our disappointment at not getting an Indian into a lovely evening and had a good laugh with locals and staff.well done to all staff

terrible experience, was here with a number of other familes to celebrate the start of the summer holidays. Landlady incredibly rude and aggressive, seemingly annoyed about having lot of customers. Complained about parents not keeping an eye on their children which just was not true and then stuck her finger up at us making one our friends children cry. Not the first time we've witnessed swearing and inpatience when children are around. Sad to say we will not be returning any time soon

My Husband just had the Sunday Roast and I had the Scampi. Absolutely lovely 😍 1st time of eating there and will certainly return.

Extremely rude land lady, who shouted swear words in front of a lot children. The whole garden area is very tired and dirty, with lots of rubbish. We will not be returning.

Leaving the bar unattended when there are queues of customers waiting is not great service.

Lovely place, we were a party of 25+, all food came out hot and they served all the children first, which I thought was good 👍 delicious meal, traditional home cooked grub, lovely outside space and play area. Thank you to all the staff 😊 steak and ale pie was amazing 👏

Absolutely fantastic visit to Bamford Cock staff were friendly and quick service food was amazing. We came from Cornwall to visit family and will definitely visit again when we’re back

Food was amazing, friendly and children well catered for.

First impressions tired pub dirty seats stuffing coming out of seat cushions.no music . Waitress was ok but uniformed of specials board.waited 40 minutes for starters which were frozen and over saladed . Waited another 40 minutes for main my roast was peppery and w other meal inedible and roast meat was tough and leathery . Then waited another 30 minutes for desert that was disappointing pastry like cardboard on treacle tart .managers offered to take off main meal so didn't have to pay .also dirty coffee cups and spoons .disappointing experience .

The food was good, hospitality was great. Ended up here after a funeral and the landlord gave us shots on the house

I would avoid this place, the manger/chef was rude, obnoxious & very unprofessional. This got business tips from one of the customers, asked if one of the customers was gay, swore when she was talking to customers, and then basically begged for a good review because all the reviews are crap. Also added that some of the food was homemade, although it was dry & tasteless. My boyfriends brother found a hair in their batter, Which she told us not to post & said she would give us discount.

Myself and my friend visited after nine holes at the local golf course. They managed to squeeze us in on a very busy Sunday lunch service. Staff were helpful, attentive and professional. We first grabbed drinks at the bar and were then seated in the...

Great village local Pub , good range of ales and wines and plenty of local character. Recommended.

Why people go here is beyond me especially when a vile, drunk, delusional owner that treats people like dirt!

Having lived locally all my life, I had spent many a night great in my youth in the Bradford Cock. But having not been there for many years I decided to pop in for a drink with some friends. BIG MISTAKE! After initially being served...

Lovely bar staff and the one owner I have met is a lovely woman and a laugh to talk to.

Friendly, great food, proper pub atmosphere.

Really enjoyable food and friendly staff. Nice wood burning fire.

First time here for Sunday lunch as we were in the area for some sales shopping at Whitehouse retail park. Portions were very generous for the price. Roast dinners came with lovely roast potatoes, carrots and parsnips plus a bit of stuffing which I always love. Dad had Lasagne which he enjoyed a lot. Then two of us had pear crumble with custard, again generous and delicious. We will return!

Have a lovely meal on New Year’s Day . Will go again

Lovely friendly pub with decent cask ales!

Great atmosphere with fabulous staff and the food was perfect. No faulting it whatsoever. Lovely to be spoiled at Christmas

Lovely Xmas meal and super atmosphere. Staff were brilliant!🎄🤗👍

Met some friends for a couple of drinks, lovely atmosphere, pool and darts facilities that kept us entertained. Only downside was we asked closing time and was told 10pm, went for a curry, returned at 9.40pm and was closed ☹️

Very nice Family Sunday lunch. Great beers.

Lunch with friends , all had at least 2 courses . Excellent choice , fresh delicious food all served in a timely fashion . Excellent friendly service provided by the landlady and landlord. Recommended.

On our to go too list now! Friendly staff. Good food. Good prices. AND they know how to make liqueur coffees!! Well done.

Great beer garden and pub however ruined by the foul mouth landlady. Very rude, insulting and arrogant, will not return in a hurry!!

Lovely pub and a great outdoor beer garden, however the female landlord is utterly rude, insulting and very few manners, I feel sorry for the staff that have to work under her!

Revisit May 2022- Better but a little expensive I found. I didn't want a huge meal so had a few small plates to nibble on. It was all very pleasant but didn't stand out and it was still a little expensive. Will give it another star now at least so it's heading in the right direction. #######Old Review from around 2019 Not too impressed, won't go for food again. The pub itself is nice, staff nice, nice garden, but the food. Nearly £6 for burnt garlic bread which looked like Tesco's own. A bread roll for my burger which again looked like Tesco's own. Burnt onion rings and re fried chips. The burger itself was home made and meaty, but was dry. A shame but never mind.

Your reason why as requested (didn't think you would want everyone seeing the reasons why, I emailed you but never had a reply) - Your staff are rude only worried about if they have a larger party in. We was told we wasn't allowed anything to eat as they had a larger party they had to sort 1st. (We didn't want anything anyway) Drinks are massively over priced £6 for a vodka and lemonade!!!! We was asked to leave as we was taking up space after being there for a hour even though the place wasn't even half full. Emailed the pub with my concerns but never had a reply. Very big shame as we used to go every week but since owners change it no longer has a village pub friend feel. I know alot of locals that have said the same and no longer go like they used to.

Nice little pub....support local or you might loose it.

Lovely atmosphere, great for families.

Food was very average for the price. Was also charged for someone else's drinks. I wouldn't return

Delicious food. and not overpriced.

The beer was well kept, food prepared while you wait and excellent. The portions were a decent size and the quality was excellent. The staff were friendly as were the customers. Nice pub restaurant.

Lovely friendly staff, quick service, good food, would go again, had great night with friends.,,,, ,,,, ,,,,,,, ,,,, ,

Went today for the 1st time . I ordered Chilli and rice. The rice was soggy in water and it didn't taste at all of chilli.looked more like spag bol with kidney beans. But did even taste of that . Completely tasteless .Hubby said his burger was nice though

Lovely food and a wonderful beer garden to while away the late summer sun

We had a roast dinner today. Well it might as well of been a frozen dinner. The gravy was like jelly and not hot. The meat was not nice and not fresh. Our friends both had lasagna and one of them was extremely dry and burnt. We told thewaitressbutlooked scared

Friendly staff, food very good.

Went there today with my sister , went at lunch time not very busy , the young girl who served us was very pleasant had only been there 3 weeks, we had a main and a sweet both were lovely , we will be back...

Good range of dishes also reasonable prices, good quantity of food given. Lovely atmosphere.

Lovely pub and a great outdoor beer gardon food also really nice but the landlord of the pub was disgusting her mannerisms and customer skills are dreadful considering its a family pub she has a foul mouth we will definitely not be going back there again

Nice people. Nice food. Good size beer garden. Quite dark inside.

Lovely atmosphere and thank you for your hospitality

Lovely setting. Large table of 9 including children. The service wasn’t great. We all had seperate bills but on the same table. I gave up on ordering desert. There was no table service but when I went to the bar to order desert the regulars were made priority rather than taking my order. Left disappointed but the chief saved the day as the food was delicious and presentation

If you like a proper local pub, this is the place for you. Large garden, play area for the kids, good food and good beer. Come and give it a try.

Very lovely meal great service thank you all ,

Had Sunday lunch there yesterday, there were 13 in our group, and we had probably 6 different main courses. They were all very good, I had the roast beef and it was one of the best roasts I have had in a restaurant. Every one...

Amazing roast, very tasty and great service. Reasonably priced too. Very happy. Came for a large family gathering and they were very attentive :)

Nice pub, nice food which is good value. The pub seems quite a good size and they have a pool table too

Excellent place for a good meal beautiful food good hospitality. Unlucky I turned up on a cold day. If not I would of used the garden really good food.

Fantastic quality homemade food, great customer service, friendly staff and a great price. The pub also has a lovely beer garden and all dogs are welcome. We will be back for sure.

A valentines dinner! No guns but what great food, wine, company, staff and guests. Yet again what a great evening, all efforts were made from the decor of the table, the presentation of the food, quality of the food and the service - a big...

A good ol' fashioned pub with a good atmosphere and plenty of space. Massive beer garden out the back, which lends itself to the traditional British summer pass time of camping out with many a draught lager in hand. They're set up for kids with a cracking looking climbing frame out the back, which, as an adult, I've definitely not felt the urge to jump on... Pool table downstairs, decent beer selection, and a classic "pub grub" menu, even a cheeky juke box and a pub quiz now and again. Ticks all the boxes for a village locale.

What a place , what an atmosphere, , the best customer service ever have experienced ever in my travels The place is full of character and deserves re visiting

I came in to have a drink and Leon and Laura (Bob) are the most hardest working people I have ever seen work. They are worth double there wage and a credit to the pub. Gilbert the head chef food is to die for and...

We had a meal tonight at the Bramford Cock and I have to say it was incredible. Leon, the chef, fired up the kitchen to make us a last minute lasagne. It was cooked to perfection and the chips, OMG, the chips were the best...

Nice village pub, good environment

Wow what a great evening this was. Taff,Luke and the gang have gone out of their way to make this a fun family friendly community pub. The Christmas lights switch on was just great and even Santa made an appearance. Keep up the good work...

Dropped in here for a bite to eat and a beer… and wanted to do a little bit of work on my laptop. Laura welcomed me and showed me to a table and quite frankly couldn’t have done any more to look after me,. Tme...

A friendly happy welcome greeted is for a family get together for an 80th birthday meal. The food was hot and well presented when brought to our table. The food was also very tasty and well worth the money, as an aside it was also...

Booked the conservatory for an 80th Birthday Party. Taff and the gang went all out to make it special for us. Food was lovely and everyone was happy. Couldn't have booked a better place. Definitely be going back for future special occasions.

The beer was good, the atmosphere pleasant, and the people (especially girls ;) ) nice. Me and my friend walk 40 min, just to go there.

Been twice with new owners and both times disappointed so won’t be going back, plenary of other places to go

Thank you Taff, Luke and the gang for an amazing day at Jess & Benjis wedding reception. Amazing food, great hospitality - would highly recommend - if i could give you 10 stars i would !!!

Food was of a good standard!! Came out nice and hot .

We come to The Bramford Cock regularly for drinks and food. The food is always good and there is plenty of it. Taff and her staff are excellent, you won't get a better welcome in any other pub in the area. Tonight I had lasagne...

Good food but surroundings could be better

Nice lunch time snack and pint of well kept beer.

Brilliant Food, Massive Garden and Children's facilities, good value and Outstanding Service, will be back next Sunday

Marvelous staff ...food was really good ..portions a bit small But a good experience...would return ...

I visited with 2 friends and the food was delicious. Had a burger which was home made. Spoke to the landlady who was lovely and very accommodating. Felt very welcome

A really lovely place to visit for good home cooked food, we are new to the village. My favourite alcoholic drink is Pernod and I noticed they do not have it in stock, I mentioned this to the land lady (sorry I can't remember your name ) and she was more than happy to get a bottle in for me, so can't wait to go back to get that bottle started !!

My family and I (party of 6) had a lovely Sunday lunch, in the conservatory, the waiting staff were warm and friendly with ready smiles, despite being very busy yesterday. My sister and her husband had not been for a couple of years due to...

Had a great lunch the outside area is great but today the weather wasn't good enough but restaurant was comfortable

Would only serve lager in disposable plastic pint glasses

Old fashioned style inside - great, hate modern pubs. Very large garden, could be made more attractive.
