Went in for Sunday lunch, hardly any one in there, ordered sausage and chips and chicken and chips, with bread and butter, the bread was stale, the chicken was over cooked, the sausages was not cooked , the bar staff came up. Just after the meal arrived ask if everything was ok, it was to hot to eat so we said fine, obviously been microwaved, the staff said sorry you didn’t enjoy your meal clearly we left it! Never go there AGAIN

Pros: lovely staff. Chill atmosphere. Good beer. Cons: horrible food. Mac&Cheese was definitely bad, it tasted as if was cooked with vinegar. The hamburgers, looked like from those frozen pre made burgers, and seemed like it was warmed on microwave (which may explain the food being served 10min after we ordered. Recommend the place for a drink. Choose another place for food.

Awesome beer selection!!! I have frequently drank here since new management take over. I must say the staff are friendly, knowledgeable, and always with a smile! Plenty of choice for lager and ale, if you ask nicely they'll even let you try before you buy. Food is what you would expect from a modern pub, definitely worth a visit for a pint and a friendly face.

I can't recommend any of the food as I usually go pre drinking here, and haven't tried it , but the service is always friendly and quick. Even on nights such as New Year's and clubbing nights ! A great place to catch up with friends, and there's alot of space for everyone, especially outside if you're with a big group !!

Looking at the reviews I think there are new staff as they were all really helpful and friendly. We went in lunch time New years eve, recieved a nice welcome as did our dog, the place was clean and nicely decorated and had a nice atmosphere. There is a huge range of beers and a nice food menu, the food took a bit longer than we would usually expect to arrive but it was clearly fresh and really tasty.

We came to bury on the train (bus replacement) and once we arrived we checked google for reviews and this place had stinking reviews. We avoided for the day until walking past and thought why not let’s go in (as the England game was on) and it was nothing but pleasant. Good beer, nice food (cheesy chips) the staff were friendly and the other customers were also very friendly. We were put off by the previous reviews but I would ignore them and go off this one as we had a nice time!!

Grim. Walked into this place to be greeted by the nasty land lady.. she had the mannerisms of a dog poo bin and the professionalism of a boarder terrier. She shamed me because I wasn’t from Suffolk, nearly threw fists because I stuttered when ordering a pint and looked at me like I was s*** on her shoe. And not to mention that fact I’ve booked a tetanus vaccine after ‘washing’ my hands in what might be the dirtiest sink in Suffolk. If you ever feel like popping in to this pub for a drink, save yourself the horrible infection and go buy some special brew from an off licence. 1/10 wouldn’t even take my pet skunk here.

This was quite possibly the worst experience we’ve had in a pub, the lady at the bar ( the one from Yorkshire ) was so rude, bullying one of our group members, and we’re not being sensitive it was disgustingly rude. Rolling her eyes when our card wasn’t contactless etc, i can’t begin to explain how unwelcoming this member of staff was, without a doubt shouldn’t be in the hospitality industry. This was around 5 on the 18/06, I wouldn’t want to get anyone else in trouble as this was solely due to one member of staff. Could be a really lovely pub if you had the right staff. We wouldn’t normally complain but this did ruin our Father’s Day.

We came in for food and was not disappointed. Chicken goujons, freshly made , were absolutely delicious. My daughter in law had sausage and mash and she loved that. My son had rack of ribs. His only complaint was there wasn’t enough they were so good. Chips were lovely and crunchy and everything was piping hot. Faultless. It’s our second visit to the area ( son has moved here) and this is the cleanest place we have visited. Everywhere else we visited I would say to my husband “ Does anyone know how to clean around here?” Well the lady who has this establishment does!! We will definitely be back on our next visit . You won’t be disappointed I can guarantee it!

You can’t come to use the loo and not order anything’ I then tried to explain but she wasn’t having any of it, seemed very angry. Judging by other reviews, this silly cow needs some serious training!

Went in there for the first time as we saw the outside area looked quite nice, went in and ordered some shots (I did not as I was driving) and 15 minutes after having them, we were shouted at and were treated disgustingly by whoever that old woman was, probably the manager. we were told if we weren’t buying more drinks we had to leave which we had every intention in doing but decided not to because of how we were treated, apparently having a chat with friends and having a drink isn’t allowed in this place. 100% will never be going again and I recommend nobody else does either.

disgusting management/landlady. went in there as the usual place we go to was full and thought we’d give it a try, sat in the garden, ordered £10 worth of shots within the first 5 minutes of being there then sat and talked for 15 minutes was about to buy another round when the lady comes out and starts shouting at us saying that she’s running a business and that we need to order more drinks or leave. we all sat in shock got up to leave as we didn’t want to be treated that way after not doing anything wrong and as we left we got hassled being told to apologise to her when quite frankly we didn’t see anything to apologise for and then as we walked out in a calm manner we were shouted at again being told to never return. shame that what was meant to be a chill Friday night in a new pub turned into that. you’d get better treatment in prison.

Sour beer with bits floating within in! The service was blunt and rude, with no impression they cared in the slightest. The pub was dead and I’m not surprised. A Greene King pub, so naturally high prices for a mediocre offering or in this case an absolute disaster of a place. Got the impression if a complaint was made, they simply wouldn’t care.
