The Crown Inn in Suffolk Coastal

Very accommodating - we had originally booked for 2 but bumped into some family and were able to swap the tables around to cater for 5 of us. Burgers were great, hake was very tasty and the liver and bacon was OK. We mentioned some of the liver was inedible (chewy) and left a fair amount on the plate - without question this was removed from the bill. Very well dealt with and 5⭐ service. We will be back !!

We visited the Crown from our home in Miami Florida. The food and locally brewed beers were amazing. The service extended by the staff and value for money were both exceptional. A true rural Suffolk pub that will not disappoint - recommended to all ages and nationalities. 10/10 We look forward to returning soon and love it so much that we are looking to buy a home in the area and split our time in retirement. Keep up the amazing work team Great Glemham Crown.

Went here because of Detectorists but there is not much to connect to the show other than a signed photo and a pencil drawing. Ordered fresh Cromer crab linguine but couldn’t finish it as samphire was too salty and too much chilli used. If it was just me I’d put it down to tastes but both of us felt it was too salty . Tables too low and chairs not very comfy. Friendly staff and nice drinks .

Went to see the DETECTORISTS pub. Lovely welcoming landlady and excellent lunch. Let us take photos inside as well. Lovely

One of the joys of living in Suffolk is getting off the beaten path to discover wonderful pubs. In our travels, we were blessed to have discovered The Crown Inn. There is a great selection of beers on offer, including a German Hells (Bendys) on tap that is gorgeous! All three of us ordered the Steak and Ale pie, puff pastry to die for! The girls opted for the superb sweet menu for afters, while I treated myself to another pint of “Bendys” as the locals called it! It was a delight to see so many locals enjoying a drink at the bar, which we’re told is daily occurrence. It almost felt like stepping back to another time, when England was a far more gentle place that people took time for each other. What a wonderful atmosphere! I cannot recommend the Crown Inn highly enough, and I look forward to our next visit!

We booked Sunday lunch at the Crown Inn as we were visiting the area on holiday for Easter. It is a really beautiful building and quite a quirky layout. The pub was very busy and we had a slight wait for our table. The staff were all really friendly, very welcoming. Nice selection of wines and beers. Being dog friendly is a big bonus. The food was outstanding, one of the best roast dinners we have had in a long time and I was assured by the teens that the desserts were amazing. Would definatly book if in the area again.

Lovely Pub very welcoming excellent service very accommodating. The food was amazing so much choice on the menu and a few specials of the day too, it was a tough decision. Also extensive menu for gluten free and vegan options. Highly recommend and we will Definitely will come back when we are this way again. 4 adults and 4 children age range 6-11

Had a fabulous meal and evening out at this pub. The selection of food was impressive including the sweets. Great selection of beers, ciders and wines. The service was spot on and all very good value to boot. Thank you so much.

Gorgeous pub! Amazing food and wine! Really genuinely friendly staff . We visited as part of my Detectorists pilgrimage but would definitely return as everything was spot on! Thank you ☺️

A perfect time, Cheryl the landlady was amazing, the food was generous to say the the least. Great food,friendly,and such a gorgeous pub and locale. As Country pubs go, perfection. Would definitely go again, if we were lucky enough. 10 out of 10.

The new Italian menu is refined but delicious. We went for Valentine's Day dinner. The sharing meatballs had amazing flavours on so many levels. The staff are friendly, well informed and courteous.

What a wonderful jewel of a pub. The staff were very friendly and helpful. We had the crown burgers which were delicious. Beer was great. We were lucky enough to sit in the bar where they filmed the Detectorists. Cannot praise this pub highly enough.

We enjoyed an evening meal here on a Saturday and had a really enjoyable time. The pub and garden were busy and the atmosphere was very friendly. The food was delicious. The staff were brilliant- very polite and professional. Thank you

Beautiful home cooked food in a great community pub. We have been visiting Great Glemham regularly for the last 4 years as a base to explore the area. I can assure you that we have tried many pubs in the area, some good and some not so good, but to find this gem during our first visit was a gift.To be able to eat great food cooked by Richard the landlord and his team, combined with a varied selection of great ales in a warm friendly atmosphere created by Sheryl the landlady and her staff we always look forward to returning.

This is a nice place with lovely garden. However I didn’t much enjoy my food. Lots of deep fried (my choice) but no salad or vegetables Felt a bit freezer to deep fryer? I perhaps chose the wrong things I had squid, and halloumi burger

I was at the pub last month. The landlady got the orders wrong but insisted that she was right. I won’t be back there in a hurry!

The BEST pub food in the area at the best prices- they really go above and beyond with their extensive menu and selection of specials. Staff are always lovely. This is the perfect pub in all seasons. Would recommend to all.

We came here with our 3 year old son and just randomly found it on a map near our holiday park and what a great find! The food was lovely, home cooked, fresh and really good value for money. The staff were really friendly and polite including the young male and female members of staff that could not do enough for you. It’s so refreshing to see younger members of staff have such great customer service skills. I had the pie and my partner the burger and then both opted for desserts as a last night treat and everything was expertly done at a fraction of the cost of other places nearby. Very very happy with this choice.

We were staying in Sweffling and booked here for an evening meal. We chose well, it was delicious. We both had the liver, bacon, mash and greens. It was well presented and a good size meal. The gravy was so tasty and crispy onions topped it off. Its the best version I have eaten. I told the waiter to tell the chef. Definitely recommend this place to eat.

Awaiting rescue by RAC, we went in for a cold coke, and upon hearing our plight, despite being very busy, the staff were most helpful and kind, they went out of their way to help us and quickly produced a delicious light lunch, being aware we were time limited. Gorgeous pub in lovely surroundings, with equally lovely staff. Thank you for making the experience less stressful than it could have been. Will definitely return once the car has recovered!

The food here is incredible, I’ve lived nearby for many years and have tried many local pubs. The food here is amazing. We went on Thursday’Italian night’. The pil pil prawns and bruschetta are very authentic as are the pizzas. I’ve been to Italy many times and the pizzas here are just as good if not better than the ones you find in Florence. The service was good and there was a relaxed atmosphere. Will definitely be visiting again!

The small village Pub had a gaggle of locals at the bar which we had to squeeze by through the narrow entrance. We were shown to a corner table in the dimly lit restaurant. The menu wasn’t large but it contained the usual pub choices. I went for whitebait and bangers & mash. The whitebait arrived un battered, on a round of thick toast, covered in chilli. Different. But very pleasant. The sausages were traditional, tasty, but the advertised buttered cabbage was replaced by green beans. All in all a nice dining experience, with well cooked food and a pleasant serving team.

Foolishly we hadn't booked but as we arrived just after evening opening, we were squeezed in. Thoroughly enjoyable meal. Service was speedy and friendly, the food delicious. Highly recommend a visit.

Had a great lunch with family, food was fantastic and service was excellent even though we were a party of 9. Brilliant pub all round we will definitey be back!

We ordered a take-away from The Crown during April 2021 when you weren't allowed to dine inside. The food was not ready at the time we ordered it and we had to wait quite a while, despite there being hardly any other customers. I was given a pile of boxes etc which was difficult to carry back to my car. The quality of the food was quite disappointing. I wouldn't rush back.

Just visited this enchanting Suffolk Pub. Sitting at the bar we heard a customer complimenting the Chef on the excellence of the food. Followed by a rant from another customer ( Female) about " cold food", after we had observed them chatting for an age before eating. They were offered new dishes , but declined, and after making a great deal of fuss they then were asked to leave. Perhaps, in my humble opinion, they achieved what they had set out to do, free food and drinks? Hard working hospitality workers deserve better than this, Good manners and respect cost nothing. Bad behaviour and rudeness spoils a great atmosphere for all around.

4 adults, 2 teenagers visited for lunch. Great and varied menu. Really enjoyed the food, which matched the menu descriptions, was well cooked & presented and served. Really enjoyed the meal. Most amusing thing was the wine list: turned out to be a handwritten list...

What a lovely pub. Food was great, staff were superb and the atmosphere is pure ‘Suffolk’. If you want towny and speedy it’s not for you but if you embrace the Suffolk way you’ll be hard pressed to find better.

Went for dinner with family, we hadn’t realised when we booked that Thursdays were pizza day, however we were all happy with pizza and they had an excellent choice. The only downfall was we were waiting for well over an hour for our food which...

After too long being away, I took the train from Ipswich to Campsea Ashe (Wickham Market Station - go figure) and cycled over for a few beers and a spot of lunch. I had a Peri-Peri Chicken burger with fries. Excellent and is well worth...

Dinner with friends, found on tripadvisor. Was def worth a visit. Staff friendly, very relaxed atmosphere. Food great. Service great.

Very disappointed. Arrived to find that they had no record of our booking. But was quiet anyway so luckily could seat us. Was pizza night so only pizzas available, so very limited menu. Pizza was pleasant enough though slightly overcooked. Sticky toffee pudding was quite...

So starters and mains where a little pedestrian with a slightly claggy batter on the squid, a competent pork belly and slightly oily fish and chips. However, the lemon tart and strawberry sundae were divine. Service was excellent and the garden was also a nice...

We booked a table here at the last minute while away with our 3 grandchildren (aged 4-11) not realising until we arrived that it is a bit of a gastro pub. However when we arrived we were made really welcome by the friendly staff. The...

Lovely country pub - beautiful building, well decorated and furnished, 2 open fires. The menu was really diverse and several choices for the non-meat eaters in our group. All 6 of us were pleased with our choices and enjoyed our food even if there were...

Stopped off at this hidden gem - The Crown Inn at Great Glemham. Beautiful both inside and out. Great choices of food and beer. Also where that brilliant series "Detectorists" was filmed. Definitely worthwhile calling in. Very friendly and helpful owners. Thanks for the chat,...

Popped in for lunch having checked out the reviews and not disappointed. The service and decor were excellent. The chicken breast in garlic mushroom sauce was delicious.

We visited on a Thursday night and found they were only serving pizza. But what great pizza they serve. Highly recommend the Vesuvius which has pepperoni and jalapeños. Washed down with some Speckled Hen of course, very nice indeed.

Lovely Sunday lunch with the family. My wife had an amazing thai beef salad which we thought was worth a special mention - I tried some too!

So worth a visit! We visited as a family of 6 for an evening meal. Staff were friendly and efficient and monitoring social distancing really well. Two of us had a pizza each, delicious and fully loaded. The sea bass, ribs and squid were all...

My wife and I enjoyed a fantastic Sunday roast at this cosy pub yesterday. It came highly by recommended by her family, and it’s easy to see why. You sense the pub hasn’t changed much, if at all, since it opened many years ago, and...

Went with family for a meal nice pub friendly staffI had white bait but it was more like small sardines theyshould have been smaller . Burgers were lovely Pork was delicious, but sorry to say that the Sea Basswas half a fish with cabbage and potatoes veryboring and bland. Not good valve for money.

As always, very special home cooked meal, just perfect - as we've come to expect of the food in this pub. It's well worth driving a few miles to this traditional old pub, with its warm welcome and its reliably good food. We've had many meals here and the food is always so fresh, local, and beautifully cooked. A great place to go with friends and family

Had a fantastic Christmas meal at the Crown inn great Glemham, so friendly they even gave us some logs for our fire as the rental property where we stayed only provided enough for one night. Definitely recommend

You can keep your fine dining and gastronomic pubs because on Thursday at the Crown you can have an amazing homemade pie made that day with choice of potatoes and veg in season with delicious gravy washed down with a pint of your choice all for £10!!! Any other day the food is amazing with a wide choice good service and a brilliant quiet country pub atmosphere! Log fires make it perfect on a winters evening! There are locally brewed beers and great ciders! My favourite place to spend an evening in Suffolk

We were very disappointed in our Sunday lunch yesterday, (Sunday 17th November)the beef was VERY tough and the potatoes I'm pretty sure frozen ones are used. The actual meal itself was presented really well but was barely warm. The young lad that served us apologised and asked what he could do, he was very polite, but sadly we wont be returning

Great, friendly little village pub. Had a steak and mushroom pie, mash, gravy, kale and green beans and a pint for a tenner. Excellent value and friendly staff and locals.

This has got to be one of my favourite places to eat in this area of Suffolk. It’s a lovely setting and the building has an old world rustic charm. The staff are inviting and friendly without being intrusive. This lunch time I opted for the pheasant risotto. I wasn’t disappointed. The rice was only slightly al dente which was just fine with me. I did wonder about the type of rice they used. The flavour and aroma was really appetising and I appreciated the vegetables and, of course, the pheasant in the dish. The whole peppercorns reminded me of Shot and though I’m not particularly into game shooting their presence was a hint to the season which is in full swing. In addition, the peppercorns gave a nice crunch and packed a punch. All in all, pretty good.As I was driving I washed it all down with a pot of tea. Maybe not everyone’s choice of an accompanying drink but it went well with the risotto! Well done, the Crown Inn.

Really enjoyed the weekend breakfast option. Full English and veggie versions available- both very good and worth the price for quality ingredients and to support a valuable local institution. Friendly landlord and chef. And dog friendly pub too.

Came across this little pub while away camping with friends. We just turned up and was greeted by friendly staff. Had a table ready straight away and could not be more attentive. Goats&lambs surrounding carpark, proper countryside pub! Food was loverly and all made fresh! throughly enjoyed.

Found this pub online and was not disappointed. Staff was friendly, efficient and most of all of our food was outstanding, compliments to the chef! Wish I was a local as I would go regularly!

Lovely idyllic setting .However, if you are hungry it seems you have to have pizza or a meal with 'chips'.

Food exceeded our expectations, really good quality, just the right amount and time between courses spot on. Bit of Jewel in the countryside.

Was staying near by and they fitted my daughter and I in. It was busy but didn’t have to wait excessively long for food. Which when it arrived was very tasty. I had chicken and bacon carbonara and daughter had pizza (which for a child’s portion was huge). The only thing which let our evening down was being sat near the kitchen door and back door to garden. Kept getting a draft and ended up chilly. But that’s just a personal opinion, on a whole, it was a lovely dinner out.

Lovely pub (with accommodation) with a good range of beers, wines and spirits.

We arrived hungry after a full day out and ordered an evening meal. Unfortunately despite cheerful and generally helpful service from the two staff who had to tend the bar and serve meals, the food was moderate and did not support their efforts. One plate of food was lukewarm and the other, crab and crayfish linguine, contained only scraps of said shellfish and relied heavily on lots of peas! This was a shame as the pub itself is a cosy, welcoming place. Perhaps we were unlucky...

On the last evening of our ruby anniversary holiday in Suffolk we decided to invite friends for a meal in the nearest pub to our holiday cottage so that we could leave the car behind. The Crown Inn was the nearest so off we set walking just under 2 miles to Great Gremham from Stratford St Andrew. We were given a warm welcome by the management and even got into a conversation with a local man about Framingham School, which I happen to know quite well. We were invited to taste the beers on offer before ordering. The menu looked good - shared platter of charcuterie and for the main course we went for seafood linguini, liver, bacon mash etc and beer bartered cod and chips. The food arrived quickly and was appreciated by everyone. My fish was particularly delicious and certainly the best I’ve had in Suffolk. My wife thought there was as much seafood as pasta in her linguini. Having indulged in the shared platter and copious main courses we were all happy with ice cream and sorbets for dessert. Then the unique conversation happened. When a member of staff asked if we were holidaying and where we were staying she soon realised that we had come on foot! Also sensing that we were not relishing the trek home after a ten mile walk earlier in the day she said she would arrange a lift back. Needless to see we accepted and were soon whisked back by car. So 5 stars all round and we will definitely return.

We came for dinner we had the burgers and a veggie burger. Very old, atmospheric pub. Plenty of parking and clean toilets. It was busy when we were here, avoid sign. Service as a little slow but the pub had only just opened, we were on holiday so there was no rush. Our food was well cooked, nicely presented and reasonably priced. There was a problem with the barrel of the beer that I wanted, as I had a bit of a wait, I was only charged for half a pint. A nice touch. Would definitely come back

1st time visit as away on holiday. Nice little place warm welcome. Food and service very good. Would recommend.

Had lunch on our way back from visiting friends in Suffolk. We both had topside of beef which was tasty and accompanied by roast potatoes and parsnips, red and green cabbage, carrots, roast shallot and a Yorkshire. Reasonable size portion of food and tasty, wouldn't have minded a bit more gravy but I should have asked!

Busy and friendly village pub serving good beer and great food. We were staying in the village and had a mid-week lunch here and a Saturday evening meal, both of which were very good. Made to feel very welcome as was our dog. Good sized portions.

Yesterday the Crown did our second outside catering for us. It was superb. Those eating the food came back for more and all, without question, praised the quality and taste of the food. The price was competitive and we will use them again. Thank you both for a superb meal and great service

We were staying in the area and went to The Crown for its Wednesday Steak Night. The food was really good, large portions and very friendly staff. Dog friendly as well. Well worth a visit and highly recommended.

We had two of the best steaks ever last night at the Crown’s steak night. We asked for it rare and it was perfect. My husband was even given peas as he doesn’t like other green veg. The chips were delicious, crisp on the outside and floury inside. The deal included two glasses of wine and considering the size and quality of the steaks was great value at £30 for two. I highly recommend it and we will definitely be doing steak night again.

We were visiting our friends who live nearby and they suggested this pub. Choice of beers and wine was good and the food were absolutely superb. Service was perfect and the landlord took time to come out and talk with us at the end of the meal. The exceptional menu with choices for the a la carte as well as pizzas and burgers catered just right for our party. This pub should go from strength to strength we consider. We will definitely return.

For the third year running our carers group had their Christmas meal here . From the traditional turkey, belly pork, halibut and beef and not forgetting the customised vegetarian meal we were spoilt for choice. All the courses were fabulous and we love the additions of an amuse bouche and sorbet palette cleanser to give the meal that extra special touch. Our room was cosy, Christmassy and warm from the log fire. We will definitely be back for our Christmas meal again next year.

Friday homemade-curry night and great g&t;’s! Lovely night out with the fam in a delightful, English-country pub. Yummy food, great atmos and very warm & friendly service.

Called in for lunch after a recommendation by friends. Lovely food, lots of choice. Food was freshly cooked and service was excellent despite it being busy than expected for a Saturday lunchtime. We will definitely be returning as we live locally.

From walking in The Crown Inn, you can see it has been lovingly decorated, furniture set out nicely and local artists paintings don the walls. Bet it’s fab in there on a cold winters day/night with fireplaces alight!

Les tenemos que dar las gracias porque nos dieron de cenar cuando ya habían cerrado la cocina porque llegamos tarde. Aún así nos tomamos unos fish and chips bastante ricos, bacalao en su punto, rebozado no muy grasiento, buenos guisantes y demasiadas patatas. Raciones enormes y amabilidad por todos lados. Muy agradable.

Went for Sunday lunch. The roast was fine, served with lots of vegetables, fresh and roasted. The bar is sorely in need of decoration, paint flaking off the fire surround. The service was a little slow, there being apparently only one waitress who would also appear behind the bar from time to time. The day was spoiled when I asked the barman for the bill and found he had charged me for 2 beers instead of one. When I said I had only had one his response was "Are you sure?"

It is a long time since we last stopped off at this pub, although it has changed hands since, it is still very nice and welcoming. It was however strangely quiet for a friday lunchtime. Our orders of ham, egg and chips, poached egg and smoked salmon brushetta and prawn and crayfish open sandwich, were very moreish and was exactly what was needed as a lunchtime snack. There was a range of locally brewed ale and lagers. Friendly bar staff.

On the recommendation from Sasha our host at the local B&B; we tried the Crown for an evening meal. It was so good that we visited on three occasions. The food was excellent especially the traditional wood fired pizzas The staff were very attentive and friendly. The landlady was just what you expect from a village pub. The locals were keen to chat and made us very welcome. There were many characters particularly James and Roman. Dogs are made very welcome. If you’re lucky you might be serenaded by Rob and Tracy . If we are ever in the area again we will be sure to visit

We had Sunday lunch here while staying locally (4 adults and one child). The welcome was friendly, the service very good and the food excellent. Nothing to fault.

Whenever in the area (on weekend holiday cottage break - locally) as a family we always try to make a point of eating here in the evening. This time we were at the Crown with friends - 4 adults and 5 children aged 12 to 16). Booked by phone for a Friday night, a couple of days in advance. As usual a warm welcome and recognition. Table arranged suitably to split children/adults. Particularly enjoyed the steaks - with range of menu choices to suit all ages and tastes. Also really enjoyed the desserts! Our friends were very impressed - and enjoyed everything about the evening/meal/venue. Thank you!

Nice and cozy atmosphere and great food. Very friendly staff. For your overnight stay choose the Crown House b 'n b just across the street. Perfect combination in East Anglia.

Haven't been here for many years, so was keen to try it again. Friendly welcome, amazing that chef willing to discuss vegetarian options with us (and they sounded good). Sadly one of the items ordered was taken down incorrectly by the inexperienced waiter. The food was good (3.5/5 rating really), but not amazing for all (especially after the intro from the chef, we felt it would be amazing). Orders were not taken at the table for sweet course, surprisingly, although the bar was buzzing by that stage. Value was very good. We ate outside, wasp swatters provided by the management!

Booked via on line booking, wouldn't recommend as when arrived didn't have any record of my booking, was told to phone in future as website not always checked, even though I received confirmation of the booking, lucky enough wasn't busy so a table was easily found.

Spent an extremely pleasant evening at the Crown. The menu included pizza, burgers and a range of pub classics. Children were well catered for, our daughter had a lovely handmade pizza and an ice cream shake (made with local ice cream) which she loved. The owners were friendly and approachable, the service good.

We were recommended to the Crown by the owners of our Air B & B accommodation in the village.

We were recommended The Crown by the owner of the B&B; we were staying in and had read the good reviews.

We visited the Crown on recommendation. Setting beautiful, our waitress Sue couldn’t have been more obliging and friendly, service was quick and attentive. Food was cooked well and tasty. Will definitely be back for another visit

I've been here before, but some time ago. This is a very attractive traditional pub and I am pleased to say that it still serves very nice food and has very nice attentive staff.

Family meet up over lunch for a birthday. Everyone had an excellent meal. Good wine selection, good gin selection and a variety of beers, all of which the landlord was knowledgeable about. Happy customers who will return.

On recommendation of some friends decided to try this pub/restaurant out (we live locally and there are many good pub/restaurants to choose from). The pub has a lovely atmosphere, we were warmly greeted and received efficient, friendly service. When I commented that the 10oz steak would be more than I could manage I was immediately offered a smaller sized steak (reflected in the reduced price) that was very nice indeed. My partner had liver and bacon which was also delicious (I know cos I tried some). We asked to share a pudding (Bread& Butter pudding) no problem and this was delicious to. All together a very good experience and we have booked to go back with other members of our family.

I brought my husband here a couple of years ago, on the Detectorists trail, for our wedding anniversary. We were not only seated in the exact room used for the series, but served two of the best lunches we have ever eaten (liver and bacon, salmon). We were massively impressed. We've returned a number of times since, both for lunch and dinner, and taken friends. Last night we were in to celebrate a birthday and all 7 of us enjoyed every mouthful. The atmosphere is warm and friendly, there are open fires, lovely decor, amazing food and a general feeling of loveliness. We cannot recommend it highly enough.

Very pleasant country pub, food well served and presented. Very nice salmon and samphire dish. We didn’t eat starters or desserts. Would recommend. Pub landlady, Cheryl, very pleasant.

Had the chance to make a second lunchtime visit in three months with party of friends.

3 of us dined at the crown inn. I had the whiskey cured salmon to start(very nice combination with mackerel mousse and a nicely presented dish. To follow I had to try the vesuvio burger - it was top notch. Cooked to my liking and chefs seasoning for the spice on the burger and fries! To follow i had the brulee which was classic in taste and aesthetics which is what i look for in a classic french dessert. We also had the cheese board which was served with homemade quince jelly & mousse. The brie for was perfect temperature and the port complimented very well. We sat with the owners for a little chat and they were very nice. We will be back to try the homemade pizzas!!

We eat out as a group once a month in the different pubs of East Suffolk. This time we decided to try the Crown at Glemham. We all had a great meal, reasonably priced and well cooked. Think most of our group will return individually in the future.

Had the pleasure of staying nearby for a short break recently and we had dinner here twice. Both occasions the food was wonderful. Nothing was to much trouble for the staff. In fact they went out of there way for us making something that wasn't on the menu. Plus the offer of lifts home by the owner to save on taxi's was something we are not used to at home. I could not recommend this pub/restaurant more highly. Thank you to all the staff. Looking forward to visiting again sometime.

We visited for a family lunch which included 2 small children and stepfather who is disabled and needs room for his wheely zimmerframe. We booked our table and the staff were very amenable. When we arrived there was another party with a very large mobility scooter so would say that this a good place for disabled people and those with limited mobility which is lovely to see. The food was also very nice. We all had roast dinner and there was a choice of beef (topside or sirloin), pork, lamb and chicken with a good portion of vegetables and a large boat of gravy. There were also non-roast options. Also a good selection of wine and beers including local beers. We would go again and the only reason for the four stars was that service was slow. It was not overly busy but it took around 20 minutes for the order to be taken and after 40 minutes of waiting we had to ask how much longer our meals would be, which was a shame, especially with two small children. May just have been a one off.

If you are a fan of 'farm to fork' dining, you will love The Crown.

Travelled over from Ipswich to celebrate my birthday with a few afternoon beers and a snack. The beer, as always, was excellent. The company, as always, was excellent. And the bar snack? A Scotch egg that pipped the previous best Scotch egg I have had (mine), and even came with a gift. Excellent. Well recommended.

We came upon the Crown at Great Glemham by chance and was immediately struck by the exterior appearance of the establishment a good old English pub with a well kept garden. On entering we were not disappointed with a warm friendly atmosphere. A good choice of cask ales, and a comprehensive menu, we opted for sirloin of beef with all the trimmings the quality of fresh vegetables was excellent and the meat was lean and well cooked.We will definitely return and would recommend.

On a perfect early autumn day we and some friends had a perfect pub lunch. We all chose different things (battered cod, scampi, ham and eggs and a burger). All very well executed.

We both ordered linguine with spinach tomatoes broccoli and chilli, we were given our meal without the chilli and broccoli !! Complained meal taken away and came back a short while later with broccoli added! It clearly had been microwaved! Now in a dish not on a plate dish hot but not food, linguine now soggy as been cooked twice!!? Food tasteless no sign of chillies!!?In addition menus were covered in crumbs and sticky! Very young children ( may have been family) running in and out of the kitchen!! Loos not clean! Decor grubby! Went as a result of reviews but very very disappointed! Don't often give bad reviews but this was not a good experience!!

Came with a group of friends for lunch when visiting area,A great country setting with good car park at rear. Recently renovated interior gave good choice of seating, a good bar area and pleasing atmosphere.Staff were welcoming and good choice of beers (not all local). Great choice of food locally sourced from menus for either bar or a la carte. Orders promptly taken and service straightforward.We enjoyed the visit and thought it good value - hope we may return.

We arrived quite late for Sunday lunch @ about 3 pm. We had a warm welcome and the sirloin beef roast was delicious. Perfectly cooked with all the trimmings and the biggest Yorkshire pudding I have had! Tasty, well seasoned and lovely veg, no soggie overcooked stuff. Highly recommended. The desserts sounded delicious but we were too full. We ate in the pretty garden on a perfect Sunny Sunday afternoon. All food seems reasonably priced too and good value for money.

Super meal even in the busy restaurant over bank holiday weekend. Super fresh fish lovely tender chicken breast attentive service couldn't ask for more. We'll done.
