The Queen's Head in Suffolk Coastal

Fabulous food, nice atmosphere and a great team. As a Coeliac I have to be careful of where I eat out. The many choices of gluten free options and knowledge of all staff made it so easy for me. I highly recommend and cannot wait to return.

Gorgeous food and great service, staff were so friendly and helpful. Nothing was too much trouble and we felt very comfortable and relaxed

Lovely food and excellent staff and service. Really friendly place and dog friendly too. Sunday lunch was fantastic. Roast lamb and great desserts. Loads of choice on menu.

A beautiful pub run by beautiful people. My local, and I love it. Kate, Kev and Chloe work tirelessly to make this place special. A triumph. Thanks for keeping this place alive and Bramfield on the map.

Really nice Sunday roast had by all. To the point I forgot to take a photo of the food! Excellent quality, fair price 👌

Excellent all round! Food was exceptional, imaginative, well presented, ample portion size, excellent value for money, good quality products and numerous choice selection. Premises were a delight, spotlessly clean, lovely decor and laid back atmosphere. Staff attentive without being intrusive, professional and efficient. Visited Saturday lunchtime in February. Ample parking at premises and surrounding area. Very impressive.

Really nice Saturday Lunch. Loved the lighting including fairy lights and a big fire. I had the salmon special and my Fiancé had the burger. Both very very tasty. The service was really good, the best we have seen in some time. Nicely busy but we didn't feel rushed or like the staff coulsnt handle it. Deserts were really nice, we would have preferred a traditional Cheese cake to one in a glass as the biscuit base was a bit dry. However, still tasted nice. The Bruha beer was apparently delicious too!

Excellent dog friendly pub. Great menu, lots of specials & veggie options. Excellent choice of beers, including craft ales. Very dog friendly, bowl of water given on arrival & a choice of dog snack to buy. Landlady & other staff very friendly.

The landlady is an excellent host and she has brilliant staff. The meal was top notch. Although we arrived earlier than our booking we were made welcome and nothing was too much trouble. Would definitely recommend and will visit again when in that area.

Absolutely brilliant.. staff so lovely and the food was exceptional…

Always superb food. Good selection of choices. Even does take away food (although this is limited on choice and can sometimes be dry when you get home) Pudding evening excellent. Only 4 stars because of the price unfortunately.

We’ve been here a few times now and the food & service never seems to disappoint us..the venue is really lovely and open fire to warm us on a cold January night,we intend to go to a quiz night here as been told it’s really good so we will update you when we go.

Beautiful pub, amazing food, excellent beer, great children's area, gorgeous garden

Felt like I'm home! Staff is great, very well organized! Already booked lunch for tomorrow as we love it! Brilliant pub/restaurant! Definitely coming back here in the nearest future! 💪

Unbelievable what an excellent find. The best place I've been in a very long time. We visited on new year's eve and had the most fantastic tasty meal with exceptional service from all the workers. Nothing was too much trouble and the food and desserts were incredible. I wish I lived closer as I'd visit every week

We enjoyed a GREAT lunch here just before Christmas . Staying locally, we wanted to try the local pub for a meal, and it was just excellent. A very warm and friendly welcome from the staff, great menu choices, all cooked really well. Thank you to the team at the Queens Head - we look forward to our next visit

Perfect, country pub. The food was brilliant, the prices were fair, and the service was excellent.

Delicious home cooked food.Cosy atmosphere and staff friendly.Cant wait to return

A lovely setting and a good range of dishes to choose from. The main courses were lovely, including the slow-cooked beef, chicken supreme and soup. These all tasted great. Nobody in our group of five had any complaints. The location is a lovely setting, with a log burner and contemporary-meets-traditional ambiance in the bar and restaurant. This was well balanced. I found it to be a tad expensive. Including, £16.50 for a quiche £18.75 for a chicken supreme. I appreciate that prices are more than just the meal themselves, but still when all things are considered, I found that these prices raised expectations too much and led me to cut back on drinks. A few areas which prevented a five star review: - the waitress was very attentive, but needs to relax a little. Be calm and less intense, as she did a great job but was coming across as trying too hard. - I personally did not like having a 'dog menu' on the same page as the ordinary menu. Reading about dog's dinners put me off selecting my own food. - the crumble dessert needed more crumble, as it was mostly filling.

Lovely food, good vegan options and even a dog menu!

The perfect village public house. They served good quality food at a reasonable price. A point to mention is they serve two draught ciders don't forego that opportunity or pleasure to taste both.

Excellent Sunday lunch, busy restaurant with very good service.

Loved this place - will be back

Excellent food with good service.

Dishes not available from menu by 7pm Saturday,booked in advance , couldn't cater for 7, hour wait for food , no communication. Possibly as not local treated so poorly by management.Table of 9 seated after us seemed to get more attention.£200 for meal.Food ok , burnt halloumi fries,burnt creme caramel.Not the attention to detail.

Really disappointing visit. We booked on Friday for 7 people at 6:30pm Saturday evening. I suggested this pub as we came a number of tiles 19 years ago and loved it.We were seated and another table of 9/10 seated after us.They were given priority ( maybe locals) , we are from Southwold,not seen as locals. We looked at the menu ( one on the website) and we were really disappointed that the beef dish was all sold out.This is poor organisation on behalf of the management. I heard the young male waiter tell the table of 9 that there were only 4 main menu burgers left and we asked him to book these out for our guests.We then panicked and asked him what else was low and he replied that the beef was nearly out.We then put in that order only to be told by the management that the table of 9 had he last beef. In future, communicate to large group bookings limited dishes before they arrive,so they can decide whether it is worth arriving. Secondly , an hour wait for food WITHOUT any communication to us is poor service. We paid our £200 bill and my friend tipped the waiters who had worked.The management need to go on a hospitality training programme.Shocking.

Went by pedal bike with pals. Bike rack on car park all perfectly secure with your own lock. The staff were welcoming & friendly. Lovely presented beer garden, good for groups & families and understandable why cycles not allowed therin. Cask ales & food excellent. Will go again.

Great venue, service excellent and the three Sunday roast dinners two roast beef and one pork were very nice and tasty. Good selection of vegetables and the pork crackling was delicious. Only slight downside was that all three plates were lukewarm, as we were the first customers of the day we assume plate warmers had just been put on We did mention this to staff when paying and it was noted. This will not stop us returning to have another great meal.

We had a lovely meal on Thursday evening. Kate and Amy made it extra special for our daughters birthday which was just lovely. Really came away feeling warm and cosy. Thanks ☺️

Yet another amazing meal at this gem of a restaurant! The food never disappoints an excellent selection all of which is exceptional quality and delivered with some of the best customer service we have ever received. Definitely worth a visit if you love your food!

I wrote a review over a Month ago after my first vist. Since then l must admit to frequenting the Queens Head for often than her in doors would like!! The Queens Head is infectious, so be warned!! In a good way. Exceptional young staff very efficient, polite and welcoming. I have now eaten here on three occasions now and already booked for futer events, themed evening. My wife and l have very much enjoyed our three meals that we thourerly enjoyed. This included Sunday Lunch and a excellent Fish Night that offered a platter of a selection to Fresh Fish and Sea Food. This is a regular event and is held on the last Friday of each Month. Sorry for my over excitement, visit and you will experience something Different and l am sure you will enjoy your Experience Add to the above with a great welcome from Landlords Kevin, Kate and the locals. Such an overall great experience. Booking is essential. Dennis

Managed to get a late booking for Sunday lunch for 9 people. Child friendly pub with great menu. Quality of food was very good. All round great experience.

We called in for lunch with a client. We ordered fish and chips. Perhaps the worst we have ever eaten. Miserable piece of fish with soggy batter, really weird peas and disappointing chips. Very expensive. The client was polite but I suspect just that. On the bright side the staff were great.

Gorgeous pub with fantastic food and exceptionally warm and welcoming. Visited with our teenagers and dog. Very dog friendly. A real gem of a find.

Pleasant local with dining in several areas. Good atmosphere, Sunday Roast not among the best. Good dessert. Pleasant service.

Attended Autumn Pudding Night Friday 13th October. Another fantastic night our party had both sea bass and beef both were amazing but the highlight of the night the 10 pudding options. Absolutely superb 😍Managed 2 extra portions of the terrine. The staff, atmosphere and value for money make this evening a must. 💖

Nice service and food I recommend it.

I went in twice at the beginning of Suffolk, having been before but was cat sitting for a friend in the village. Without a shadow of a doubt, the best gastro pub food I have ever had, and we eat out a lot at home in some lovely places. Made very welcome by the landlord and landlady. The specials awesome! The dressed crab recommended if on!

Had a great night with excellent food. It was a charity musical bingo night. Brilliant atmosphere, wonderful hostesses and organiser. Everyone was singing and having a great time Will definitely be going back. Loved it.

Fantastic Establishment. I drop in to the Queens Head just for a beer. So glad l did, what a breath of fresh air so different from the norm! Lovely welcome, one of the owners, the Landlady even helped me find a parking place and l recieved a really nice welcome. I was asked my name and when l got inside l was introduced to the an equally welcoming group of regulars. I have now returned 4 times and l am more than happy to become a regular. There are a number of local and National beers and ciders on offer. All are extremely well kept and served by helpful and welcoming team.. The Landlady certainly knows her beers and is so knowledgable and enthusiastic about local and National Beers and Ciders. The Queens Head is like the Tardis with various rooms all individually and tastefully furnished. There is also a large well kept Garden with plenty of tables. The food offering is also different from the Norm and offers the odd fish dishe, all nicely cooked and well presented. Price wise the Queens Head is certainly very competitive to anywhere local. I live Locally and have experience a number of local hostelrese. A couple of these are fine. However if l am honest, The Queens Head will take some beating. Such a great on going experience. Regular entertainment and food themed evening. From Friday 21st until Sunday 24 September 2023. With over 25 crafted Ciders and beers. Again local and national Breweris will be represented. Sorry about this lengthy review, but the Queens head certainly deserves it. Obviously you will need to visit to enjoy the experience. I can assure you, you won't be disappointed. Dennis

Lovely pub, plesent staff, beautiful garden

!The advantage of simply booking and turning up is that one is not bombarded with 'how did we do?' emails, so this comment is there because it was a great, enjoyable experience without the need to be ratified by some on-line robot. The problem with The Queen's Head is that it has been AWFUL in the past so the new owners have a lot to live down but they've done this simply by providing great food, great beer at fair prices in a lovely setting and (major plus coming up) they welcome dogs and we have two of them: large ones. They even realised that the music (the BAIN of most restaurants) was too loud and turned it right down. I'd love for it to disappear altogether, it detracts from the food and the ambience. Great vegetarian and vegan choices. Highly recommend this place to anyone.

Great meal at the Queen's Head, Bramfield. Lovely menu, great service. A great find in rural Suffolk

We loved it here. Such a good find while in area. Will return

Super portion sizes and friendly service. Dog friendly too.

Had a great lunch here in late August with 2 kids. Staff were friendly and there was a good atmosphere. The pub is lovely and the gardens well kept and pretty. More importantly the grub was great, can't fault it. Wish it was closer to us so we could visit again

Thank you for a lovely birthday lunch for my Husband yesterday, food cooked and presented perfectly. Also for your consideration re suitable table for my elderly Mum. Wonderful enthusiastic rendition of Happy Birthday when you all brought the cake out! Much appreciated 👍 See you soon!

Could not have wished for a better meal, great caring staff and food was great, would recommend to anyone 😊😊

Fabulous food and service 👌 Tried the pork chop last week. Delicious, great fries as well... But the apple and rubbarb crumble is a sensation...

One of the nicest country pubs we have visited long time. Lovely food, friendly service and one of the best kept beautiful gardens l have seen at a pub in a long time. Only about 5mins off the A12 in the lovely village of Bramfield, well worth a visit.

Absolutely beautiful pub. Lovely atmosphere and a lovely welcome. The food was great. My Mediterranean chicken breast was lovely. We didn’t go in the garden but it was full of flowers. Would highly recommend.

Had a lovely birthday meal there

Had a love family meal every thing was love

Stayed in the local area for the weekend, and booked a table for Sunday lunch and so glad we did, we arrive half hr early and was greeted warmly by a lovely lady nothing was to much trouble so friendly and welcoming. She answered my question s in detail about the Ale's they had on tap, which I really appreciated, our roast dinners were superb good portion size, plenty of gravy and very tasty. We both had the Eaton Mess for desert, which again was outstanding . Overall, it is really good value for money and really good service. We will definitely be returning next time we stay in the area.

We went for lunch at the Queens Head and had a lovely visit. Very polite staff who made you feel very welcome. I had the prawn starter which was nice and my wife enjoyed her hummus. My fish and chip main was lovely and my wife enjoyed her scampi. Good background music as well! If we are back in the area again we will visit again!

Great gluten free options. The food was all very tasty and well presented. Thank you.

Highly recommended! Fitted us in for an amazing pork Sunday roast at short notice on a Sunday afternoon. Thank you! :)

Great roast pork. We found the Queen's Head after being disappointed that everywhere we tried in Southwold and Walberswick didn't do Sunday lunch during the summer months. Highly recommended. Excellent waiting staff too.

Another fantastic Sunday lunch at the Queen's Head! Excellent service from all of the staff; efficient, professional and always a welcoming smile as you come in. Well worth 5 stars!

Had three starters to share, fairly priced, decent sized portions (except the tiny chicken wings) and was pretty tasty. Food came out quick and hot and presented well. No issues just have had tastier food elsewhere. We love the owners response to criticism on here so had to leave a review ourselves.

Great starter salt and pepper squid and Mediterranean tart. Main meal prawn and crab linguine.. disappointed. Tomato sauce with what seemed liked spaghetti and a few bits of prawns.. couldn't find crab.. that's it.. oh and the bread and butter was OK. But the dessert was so lovely.. not too sweet..sticky toffee pudding.. both had starter. Main meal and dessert. 1 drink each . Large wine... 10.40 !! And gin and tonic.. total bill ... 81.00.. had meal night before. Somewhere else. Again 2 starters. 2 mains. 2 desserts. 2 drinks.. 69.00... preferred night before meal..

Good food friendly staff reasonably priced

Fabulous Family Evening Meal. Stopped in for evening meal 5 adults and doggo. Amazing staff, personable and couldn’t do enough for us. Great varied menu including daily specials and good selection of ales, wines and cocktails. Food was amazing, delicious and full of flavour. Cannot...

I will definitely be returning. The food was amazing and the personable staff were fantastic!!

A lovely pub and great locally sourced food. Tempura salt and pepper squid was amazing; really good menu choices so might want to have a look before you go. Beautiful gardens and overall a great experience. A lovely team and made very welcome on arrival....

Having just bought small holiday place in Suffolk we've been trying out some local haunts and decided to try the Queens Head at Bramfield for Sunday Lunch. Great choice as as a good variety of the menu. Although we decided not to have starters and...

Excellent pub restaurant. Good food, beer and super staff. Been numerous times and will return many times.

Didn't stop for lunch but had a refreshing drink, lovely bar person, friendly and helpful, sat in the beautiful garden with views of the church. Planning to go back and try the food.

Lovely family lunch today for 4 generations including 94 year old Great-grandmother and Greatgranddaughters 11 & 13.Many thanks to landlady Kate for being so helpful and arranging a table just by the step free door for elderly Mum. The food and friendly service were spot on, tasty, well presented, beautifully prepared, with lots of choice! What's not to like, you obviously work very hard to attain such a great standard! Very enjoyable! We will be back!

I was visiting the area with family and prior to arriving, had sourced a couple of places to try for food, this being 1 of them which was on a Top 10 list for alfresco dining places in Suffolk that I’d found online. From the...

After searching for a highly regarded country village pub/restaurant we came across the Queens Head. The pub is in good position and very nice inside. Visited early on Saturday evening, ordered the pork belly and wife had the Hake Fillet. Presentation was good. Pork belly...

Great beer, food and staff ... what more can you ask for and cute artwork by a local artist.

Super creative food made with care. Great hospitality. Ideal for ladies who lunch! Monday opening ALL DAY exceptional in our area. Well done.

Friendly service, great food choices and and very pleasant surroundings. Our only criticism was the lemon sole was 95% bone and inedible. Lemon sole should at least have a fillet on the bones!! We paid extra for a hake fillet which was worth the cost,...

Lovely place, so understanding of the fact people have different times for eating and relaxing. Great food. Coming back again soon.

Another delicious Sunday lunch. Despite being very busy service was great, atmosphere superb and fabulous food. Can thoroughly recommend but you would need to book ahead as very popular place.

What a find! We went here for dinner on the Kings Coronation: lovely little pub with great food and brilliant service. We took the dogs and they were given a lovely space in the corner to sleep whilst we ate. 100% recommend, we’ll definitely be back in better weather to enjoy the garden

Really lovely experience - we took the dogs with us and had dinner on a Saturday evening. The staff were fantastic and the food was brilliant. It’s a beautiful pub with a great garden. Will definitely be coming back in summer time!

had an amazing Sunday roast and pudding here after a long country walk nearby, staff were very friendly and helpful as well.

Absolutely superb duck last night!! ... followed by the most delicious sorbet. First class!

I visited The Queens Head for lunch with my family on my way to our holiday destination in North Suffolk. Wooden rustic type furniture but quite comfortable and the tables were quite reasonably spaced. We booked in advance (advisable) and the menu was really good. The food was beautifully cooked and professionally presented. Great service. Thoroughly recommended.

From the very warm welcome to leaving, we were very lmpressed. We recommend the fish pie, generously filled and very tasty. The staff are effecient and the place is clean and comfortable. A great experience all-round.

Stopped for a lunch/snack, as I brought my bike into the completely empty garden I was told that bikes were not allowed in the garden and advised to lock it up by the busy road, out of sight of both the garden and bar. I...

Nice building and friendly service. The children's chips and pizza was from a supermarket. The adult main food was nice. It was all good, just overpriced for the level of quality.

Excellent food (particularly recommend the crispy duck with pancakes) in very attractive and relaxing surroundings with friendly staff. Couldn't ask for more!

Came here with friends who live in Bramfield. Bar staff are friendly and helpful and know their locals. Enjoyed a tasty Sunday lunch with good choices for everyone including veggie options. No problem in getting extra gravy or whatever was needed. After lunch, we lingered...

My wife and I booked for dinner and were so pleased that we chose the Queen's Head. The pub probably dates back to the 16th century and has exposed oak beams which makes the atmosphere very warm and rustic. The waiting staff were very very...

Attended the pub for a buffet after a funeral very pleasant although car parking is a bit random owing to the proximity of the pub to a road junction. Food was great and kids meals very generous portions

Moved into area a few months ago. First visit. Had lunch and enjoyed Good Food, real ale, nice atmosphere, friendly staff - lovely.👍

Just spent weekend in Bramfield and visited pub twice once for drinks second time for Dinner.Food was lovely as was decor the log fire was burning a lovely feature.Chloe was very attentive lovely bubbly character would recomend

Lovely pub with friendly staff and the food was delicious. The chef catered for a food allergy with no hesitation and created something that tasted fantastic.

had a 2.30 pm sitting. it did not disappoint! The staff were so friendly. the decor and ambiance perfect. The food delish!!!! (even had a parsnip!! massive points!!). Price so reasonable. Highly recommend for that perfect chilled Sunday lunch!!

Four of us went for Sunday lunch. The staff were friendly and knowledgeable. Service was very good. The food was delicious. The real ales were also very good. We'd go again.

Probably the best pub in East Suffolk, serving the best home cooked food and has a good choice. Food to die for.

Thursday birthday lunch was very good. Warm welcome, we were offered either a table in the bar or the adjoining restaurant, we chose the bar because of the blazing log burner. I chose the fish pie which was very tasty and good portion size. My...

Excellent service and lovely place. Great ne local beers to now (Feb 23)

Fabulous log fire, extensive menu (several veggie choices) wonderful atmosphere and even a bookcase full of books to purchase with cost going to local charity. Altogether a brilliant meal in a lovely place. Staff even put a candle on father in law's dessert as it...
