The Three Ways in St Edmundsbury

Amazing food and service . A good range of ales and wines .Can thoroughly recommend. A great place for a family get together . Will definitely go again .

Such a beautiful cosy pub, the owners were so lovely and welcoming, it was so cosy sitting by the fire, with the Christmas tree and Christmas lights. The food was 5 star, absolutely amazing, hats of to the chef! I had a steak which was cooked to perfection and the homemade chip were so good! My boyfriend had the Braai BBQ mix and I’m pretty sure he loves his meal more than me lol, he said it was amazing and wants to have everything off the menu ha. We are already telling our friends and family about this amazing place, my partner and I are already planning our next visit. Thank you so much :)

We thank our lucky stars every day that this pub is our local! We are so grateful to Basie and Ellie for making this into the warm inviting place to go to that offers the best food in a friendly environment with beautiful garden for us to go to either on our own or with our children and grandchildren!

We came by this place after a walk and stopped for a quick drink just as the place was opening. What was supposed to be a quick drink turned into staying for dinner. On a dark chilly November evening, his place was so cosy! There were comfy seats near the fire. The decor comfortable and welcoming. The landlord gave us Jenga to play with while we waited for the kitchen to open for food. As well as more usual English pub food, there ware traditional south African dishes on the menu. I'd never had it before so gave it a try. The food was lovely. (For anyone watching their diet, it's good healthy food too by the way). As the evening went on, the place git busier and busier, so you may want to book. The bill at the end was reasonable too, no overpriced drinks! I would love to come back again and really recommend it.

We tried Three Ways for Lunch, the service was friendly and efficient, the food excellent and reasonably priced.

We enjoyed the steak offer on Thursday evening - buy one and get one free. Three different cuts available. Meal was absolutely delicious! Four almost empty plates - the portions of chips having defeated them :) Staff are all lovely, setting perfect. Will be returning for pizza offer this week ...

Had a fantastic couple of meals from this pub. The couple that own it are lovely and very accommodating. The food on every occasion has been so good. We have tried the South African menu as well as the English and every meal has been fantastic with puddings that leave you wanting more .

I did a pin sticking pub pick for Suffolk Sunday lunch on Google maps and decided to give the Three ways pub a visit. After speaking to the landlord booked a table,as he seemed very nice on the phone taking the booking. The pub was over an hour away in an area not visited before. When we arrived the car park was nearly full,an indicator of a popular pub in a quite remote area. On entering was greeted by the landlord and our drink order taken. At least 2 real ales on tap, another good sign of popularity for a rural pub. We were seated and our lunch order quickly taken followed by a very quick service. Only managed half pint of beer before service. Vegetables served separate as was gravy. The meats and vegetables was just the right amount so no waste, Which left just enough room for cracking homemade dessert. A very nice landlord & landlady & friendly staff,and good food and service and price. Another trip in the offing. Well worth the trip down some very narrow lanes to find.

Our first visit, a very positive experience. Great Sunday lunch, lovely veg & all nice and hot. Very generous dessert portions. Friendly and attentive staff. Cosy pub, we had a lovely time. We’ll definitely be back!

Attended meeting yesterday.Great atmosphere and service.An excellent array of sandwiches and meats were served.Lovely pub

We visited the Three Ways in Cowlinge with friends. The pub is a lovely traditional British country establishment, and the extensive menu offers a combination of British pub favourites and some enticing South African dishes. Having opted to go for traditional starters which were really good, all of us chose from the South African options and we thoroughly enjoyed both the Bobotie (a lamb dish) and Potjiekos (a beef dish). We managed a couple of desserts between us, which were also lovely. The pub also has a good selection of beers and we were pleased that the evening represented great value for money. It is well worth a visit.

This pub is a gem. Stunning garden and very peaceful atmosphere - a fantastic 15 min drive out from Newmarket (where there are no decent pubs) along beautiful country road. Owners are very welcoming and the menu is brilliant with classics lime fish and chips (delicious) but also South African dishes. Can't wait to try their "foot long" sausages next time made at the local butcher with SA spices. Great real ale (something sadly lacking from Newmarket pubs), a gorgeous interior which we will enjoy visiting in winter. We have tried a few country pubs around Newmarket since my son moved to the area and this one is the best by miles. I couldn't understand why it was not busier on a Saturday night! Don't hesitate to go.

What a lovely place to meet friends for a relaxing evening good food good prices very friendly landlord and staff nothing too much trouble beautiful garden to sit in too

Phoned late afternoon, Booked a table for later that evening, Warm welcome on arrival, Very good food and service, Great evening,Definitely will be going again,

I dont usually take the time to leave a review. But we had a lovely Sunday lunch yesterday at the pub. The food was fantastic and it was really well presented. The staff were very attentive and polite. The hosts are a really nice friendly couple. All in all we had a thoroughly excellent meal and would absolutely recommend the pub. Well done guys.

Cowling had their first fete with The Three Ways hosting the BBQ. A amazing success, tasty burgers and pork sausages as well as the South African beef sausage. We hope to see more of these events!

Called on the offchance of haviny a Sunday lunch without a booking. Greeted warmly by the owner who said he was fully booked but would fit me in if he could. He found me a table in a side room and I ordered Belly pork...

Consistently good food served, best fish & chips we've had, friendly & helpful hosts & staff, relaxed atmosphere. Would highly recommend.

Had an excellent takeaway dinner tonight from the Three Ways. Very tasty fish and chips at a reasonable price. Lovely fish with crispy batter, great chips and mushy peas. Delicious!

Was staying in Newmarket and decided to give this place a go. Well worth the 15 min drive through lovely country lanes to eat here. Walked in and could feel a lovely vibe from the off. Was welcomed straight away by the host. Very clean,...

Had a lovely Sunday lunch at very reasonable price. Staff very helpful and were quickly able to offer options for our friend with special dietary requirements, plan to return on a different night to try something else

Visited family on the first August and had lunch in the garden. Had a fabulous meal. Staff were very helpful and friendly. Beautiful setting. Would highly recommend

My family and I visited the he three ways on the first Sunday the pub reopened after the governments relaxing of the plague restrictions and every thing is very sensibly done to maintain social distancing etc but what you want to know is was the...

To date we have only had takeaway from our new local The Three Ways, but it has been completely delicious and served with such warmth from Basie and Ellie. A lovely imaginative home cooked menu, bursting with flavour. With chips are incredible which is always...

A friend and I decided to grab dinner and a drink for a catch up but wanted to stay fairly close to home so decided to try the three ways. So glad we did. A warm welcome was received on arrival and the pub itself...

Warm welcoming atmosphere with exceptional service. 5 star food. Can't wait for our visit on Christmas day. Only wish this was our local.

Visited with friends, six of us altogether, for a Sunday lunch. A comfortable and friendly atmosphere and the service was excellent. Our first visit which we are sure will not be our last.

Lovely service and great food, a really pleasant Sunday lunch They looked after my elderly Mum with wheelchair access and made us all feel very welcome.

Been here for a evening meal which was good decided to try the Sunday lunch and we wasn't disappointed fresh veg beef was amazing going back again with family this weekend .

Had a delicious sirloin steak with all the trimmings excellent and value for money. Wonderful atmosphere and service, helpful staff. Very relaxing evening with good company and outstanding food.

From the minute we walked in we were greeted with a smile and shown to our table. It was my birthday and I had banter with the owner about age candles which turned into a free scoop of ice-cream with the said candles later as the food was so good only two of us had room for desert.The starter choice was excellent and the Sunday roast was very good. Service was excellent and everyone smiled and engaged with us.The drinks were served promptly and the German Riesling which may friend enjoys was just right for her.Thank you all at the Three Ways for a lovely birthday experience I'm sure we will be back very soon.

Sunday lunch here is exactly what one wants. The menu is not extensive but the food is just right and plenty of it. Good, friendly service and a friendly atmosphere. We also had dinner there a few weeks ago and that was just as good. Highly recommended!

This is a lovely country pub with a warm welcome. It's a little bit off the beaten track but in my opinion that is all part of the charm. My husband and I have dropped in several times on Friday evenings for the fish special: a generous portion of fish & chips plus your choice of drink for £10! Delicious food and great value, all served by some very friendly and attentive young waiting staff. Definitely worth a detour but probably safest to book in advance to avoid disappointment...

The Three Ways is a cosy, country pub beautifully located in the village of Cowlinge. It has traditional beams, a wood burning stove & you are greeted upon entering with the warmest of welcomes from the resident cocker spaniel! Sunday lunch includes a fine selection of roasts, simply cooked with all the usual accompaniments, plenty of freshly steamed vegetables & as much gravy as you could wish. Puddings, from a mini blackboard brought to your table, are very good & include sticky toffee sponge with salted caramel ice cream & plum & frangipane tart with vanilla ice cream. Service is friendly & efficient & with coffee by the fire after our meal we could happily have whiled away the rest of the afternoon there! It gets very busy on a Sunday so book.

We couldn’t fault the quality of the food or the service. The fish and chips were delicious and as for the beef stew and dumplings - they went down a storm. Deserts which just as good and all for a reasonable price - we will definitely visit again

We wanted somewhere to meet my Dad for Xmas present giving but we live 3 hours apart.

Was a nice evening food was good service was good overall a good evening .the pub is cosy nice place to have a drink in front of the fire.

I had the special price ( Thursday night) Steak meal . Delicious and good service as ever but so book before hand as it gets booked up very early

we had not been here for years , and popped in for sunday roast . The meal was lovely real meat and plenty of it . The service was spot on we were so pleased with quality of the food we went back to steak night and enjoyed this meal the steak was lovely.so we will be returning if you want quality food go here

A typical pub Sunday roast - all served piping hot. The staff were friendly and helpful.. Only problem was finding the pub which was listed as Newmarket but well out of the way and difficult to find.

Booked a table at this pub/restaurant after checking out reviews. The starters were very tasty, no complaints there, the mains were, on the whole, good but I must say I was disappointed with the ‘real’ chicken and mushroom pie, it was quite dry and the pastry very thick for the amount of filling. There was a separate serving of gravy but it didn’t bring much to the party, the veg however was cooked to perfection. Apart from the one dog lover at our table the rest of us were less than impressed with the two mutts wandering into the restaurant area and sniffing round the tables, one actually put his two front paws on my chair and hauled himself up to get a better smell of the aforementioned pie ! So, a mixed bag on this one hence to star rating.

My first visit here for many years . I was pleasantly surprised by the sympathetic restoration , friendly And efficient service and value for money food with a good selection of real ales . I will be coming back again

We have visited on a number of occasions and each time has been lovely. The pub is beautiful and cosy. The staff are lively and friendly. They are attentive and knowledgeable on the food. From order to eating is quick and the food is very good. We have never made it to dessert as the portion size is good and it is well presented. It is well priced and worth every penny. I would definitely recommend this pub

The Three Ways is a quintessential Olde world English pub. Wonderful place to visit.

Tried this restaurant/pub on the way back from Newmarket horse racing. Thank goodness for incar satnav. Took us through narrow country lanes, but we got there in the end.

Lovely Pub, freindly welcoming service nothing to much trouble. Excellent tasty home cooked seasonal menu. We didn't take our dogs but having met the cheerful pub dog we felt it was somewhere we would go back with our 2 shepherds for a summer lunch.

This is the quintessential English pub, log burner, warm and cosy, friendly staff and the perfect steak and chips. No wonder it was packed on a Thursday evening. We also had a great Sunday lunch on Mother's Day. Highly recommended.

Sunday lunch is always lovely , hot , good selection of veggies and well cooked . Puddings are scrummy ! Staff very friendly and welcoming and pub has a homely feel to it . And there is a pub dog called Issy who we all love !

We enjoyed a lovely meal at the Three Ways last night. It was pie night and both the steak and ale and chicken and mushroom pies were excellent. The homemade hand cut chips were a real treat and the staff couldn't have been more attentative. Such a warm welcome from the landlord and locals alike. We can't believe we have lived in Newmarket for nearly a decade and only just discovered it. We look forward to making it 'our local.'

We just called in for a casual drink, while in the area. Lovely atmosphere and very busy with food. It makes a change to see a proper landlord and lovely staff. Best gents toilets I’ve seen for a long time 👍

This is a great village pub with a good a selection of drinks and craft beers. The home-cooked food is delicious and all very reasonably priced. It's friendly and welcoming with a lovely atmosphere. Highly recommended and well worth a visit!

My husband and I met up with some family members for Sunday lunch. The log fire was very welcoming as was the landlord. We were meeting early and at first there was only us and one or two other people but gradually it filled with people and I'm not surprised.

Lovely pub with a great setting we visited for there fish and chips special which where great value and really tasty

Went to the Three Ways for dinner last Friday after racing at Newmarket and the meal was delicious. Had the...

Started with the sharing platter but saw the seafood boullibase being taken to table next to us- looked amazing! Asked...

We had a evening meal here last Thursday, and although we’ve eaten here many times and have always had a great meal, with really friendly staff and locals, I’ve never had a steak before.

Fuimos a este pub anoche dieron una cálida bienvenida y la comida era de muy buena calidad, muy sabroso y el tamaño de las porciones son derecho normalmente que no podemos gestionar tres campos, pero no aquí y no sentir peluche cómodo. El personal es atento y amable. En general una comida muy satisfactoria en un entorno encantador.

Este pub es fantástico. Es un hermoso edificio antiguo y jardín. Cálida bienvenida del propietario y la gente muy amable! Sin olvidar el perrito que adoptó nosotros toda la noche!

Lovely bulding and good homemade pub food with well kept beers and friendly staff definitely worth a visit

This was our first visit and we went to celebrate a birthday. The welcome was friendly and the environment comfortable and cosy. We happened to visit on a steak night, (Thursdays), so decided on sirloin with the usual trimmings, but I added Stilton sauce which was very tasty. The steaks were excellent with virtuallly no fat, the chips were 'standard' size and crispy. for desserts we both had an excellent sticky toffee pudding. Service was friendly but we have a very minor criticism. We had to ask for steak knives and water, both of which were immediately brought to us. Overall an excellent experience and inexpensive too.

An all new Fish Pie was produced and very nice it was too, Filo pastry replacing the mashed potatoes. I had fish and chips that was up to Mrs. Smiths usual standard.

A superb find! Chris and Sue pub other pubs to shame! A well stocked bar and very tasty choice of dishes. A quiet location with plenty of space inside and out to enjoy. Good walking territory and thankfully a no fuss dog friendly pub.Would recommend without question!

We Stopped by for a beer last Sunday evening. Had a good pint of Adnams and glass of wine sitting in the sun in their lovely garden. Delightful pub and surroundings serving good cask real ales. After leaving 500 yards up the road my car conked out. Oh dear. Neither of us had a mobile phone to call for help so I went back to the pub and the landlady and landlord were extremely helpful and could not have done more for us. They even gave us half a can of petrol see whether that would help. Many thanks we did eventually get home. We will certainly be coming back and very grateful for your help thank you

First time here,lovely furnishings,dog friendly,homemade food with a child menu,good service, will definitely be returning

This is a great pub, tucked away in Cowlinge near Newmarket. It is a traditional British country pub, staff were all really friendly and the waitress service for lunch was kind and attentive. We went on a Sunday and had a roast (one beef, one chicken). Absolutely delicious, with plenty of vegetables, and a good variety too. Children can have a smaller version of any of the main courses at a lower rate, but no specific children's menu. They had colouring books and pencils for children too which is always good! Recommended.

Warm welcome and wholesome tasty food. So cosy in the winter by the fire and a lovely beer garden out front for a sunny day. Always a good selection of ales on offer and good variety of home cooked food on the menu which is well priced. We have been there many times and if it wasn't for our 2 yo we would go more often!Sue and Chris have made a huge effort to create a friendly, warm and welcoming pub.

I had booked this for a family sunday lunch as we were visiting my daughters who live in the Newmarket area. I went by ratings on Trip advisor and booked here. It was a great meal a lovely home cooked Sunday lunch. The vegetables came in serving dishes put on the table. We all love our veg so i did ask for another dish as there was 8 adults. These came promptly as did the extra gravy i requested. Everyone enjoyed the meats they had ordered particularly the belly pork with awesome crackling according to those who had chosen it, and meat portions were very generous. The deserts were also really lovely and the waiting staff friendly and efficient. Would definitely visit again as it was warm and cosy so great on a cold winters day. I have noticed several restaurants i have eaten in during the last couple of years do not always make sure that your surroundings are warm and draught free and have left soon as i have eaten due to being freezing, so the Three ways was such a pleasant change, if you find yourself that way i would definitely call in and if you have time for a meal even better.

Paid a return visit for Sunday lunch. Really nice country pub, really good food, again, very reasonably priced. Will definately visit again when we're in the area

On Saturday evening, my husband and I, together with two friends made a forty five minute journey to have a meal at The Three Ways, and we felt as though we had come home. All the reviews that we had read were so true. The welcome from both staff and the regulars was genuine and natural. Everyone in our party heartily enjoyed the execellent food, and we will be back. Anne from Thetford

My wife and I stopped off for a quick drink... Quintessential English pub, great ales and delicious home cooked food.

six of us visited the three ways for my wifes birthday and once again, superb food , wonderful service in such relaxing and convivial surroundings. this pub although a long way from where we live has become our de facto destination for birthdays anniversaries and just any blowout!. sit outside on a lovely day and hear your watch tick its so quiet with hardly any traffic you feel in the middle of nowhere but are in fact 5 minutes from the A134. a real stress buster.highly recommended.

Lovely pub, friendly staff, good food. What more can you ask for a Sunday lunch? Going to be a regular visitor!

We happened upon this place via the internet and we're so glad we did. There was a friendly welcome and considerate but unobtrusive service. Theres nothing pretentious about this place, just a good honest meal. I had the fish and chips, beautifully light and tasty fish coated in a light fine batter with home cut and cooked chips. My wife had the pork and chorizo meal, which she found to be full of taste and a hearty meal and very Spanish.We would have no hestitation in recommending and revisiting.

Had an excellent Sunday lunch here with family members.Never been before, pub is really comfortable, welcoming atmosphere, delightful waitresses. The belly pork was fabulous, also lots of fresh, well cooked, seasonal vegetables. Others had roast beef, all agreed it was vey good.Really lovely place, we will certainly return

Great Menu with variety of delicious home made meals.A very friendly pub, made to feel very welcome , Staff were very friendly and nothing was too much trouble!! Service was excellent!!Would highly recommend!Well worth a visit!!

Just had an amazing Sunday roast with the family. Fabulous traditional country pub, lovely building in gorgeous setting.

Absolutely wonderful traditional country pub. The food is homemade and really delicious (especially the Sunday roasts). Great value for money. Excellent service and very dog friendly. The garden is lovely to sit out in when the weather is nice but it is also very cosy and welcoming when you want to warm up during the colder months. Lovely atmosphere, I would highly recommend this pub to everyone.

The "worst experience" complaint arose during a lunch visit by our group of 30+ ramblers who arrived back 45 minutes after the time booked, due to my error as leader. The pub did a good job producing most of the pre-booked meals in good time - one or two were delayed.They did a good job in the circumstances. Our large group has used this pub for a number of years and has been well satisfied with the service provided.

If you like everybody else at your table eating their food while you wait and wait and wait and then when you complain it is you that is in the wrong, then this is the plea for you. If not, go to the Red Lion in Kirtling which is a much better pub.As for the food, I gave up on mine but my wife said her burger was at best average.My advice is to stay away.

Visited last night for a family meal with my husband and parents. Couldn't rate the atmosphere and food more highly!The food was incredible, great value and absolutely scrumptious. Everything we had was cooked beautifully.The staff were really friendly and welcoming too.Will definitely be returning and would recommend it to anyone in the area. Absolutely worth a visit!Thanks for a fab meals guys!

My wife and I will sometimes turn up for Mrs. Smiths steak nights on a Thursday. Steak, chips and fresh veg served with a pint....£10.oo. What value! My wife, the non meat eater, will have the very good fish pie.Did I mention her tapas nights?

came across the three ways by chance whilst driving in the country side .we were met by the pub dog which loved being made a fuss off.we had the most amazing meals very reasonable too we will definitely be going back .

On arrival we we greeted by the very friendly pub dog, a cocker spaniel. We ordered our drink at the bar and sat down with the menu to choose our food, the roast beef, the roast chicken and two fish pies. These were all well cooked the fish pie which I had tasted great. A good selection of vegetables came in separate dishes. There is a good selection of deserts and ice creams so I am sure we will return again soon.

My husband and I ate at the pub Saturday night while we were house sitting, the people were nice and the food amazing, we enjoyed it that much we booked again for Sunday Lunch, (you do need to book for Sunday lunch) Sunday lunch was good and came with all the trimmings, and more veg ect was offered if wanted didn't need more plenty to begin with.All in all amazing and cant wait to visit my auntie again so I can go for a lovely meal again.

Have visited this charming pub/restaurant twice this year and both times have not been disappointed. The pub is warm and welcoming with a log burner and comfy seating. There is a choice of where to eat, the dining room or a table in the bar area, both of which are comfortable with a nice atmosphere.The food was delicious with a nice choice of starters and mains and the specials board was lovely with a few choices away from the norm which were great. Cant comment on the puds as we were too full to try them!! Will try them next time!!

We were looking to try a new venue for Sunday lunch and following the reviews we booked here and were not disappointed. Very friendly welcome, papers to read, lovely relaxed atmosphere and the most fantastic dog who curled up beside us on the sofa as we ordered and had drinks before lunch. We had 3 courses, each a delight. All the staff are very friendly and helpful and the food is divine. Roast beef was cooked rare and just melted it was so tender, lots of vegetables were served along with the roast and all cooked too perfection with amazing roast potatoes (this is where I find most places fail on). The roast was exactly what we wanted (we had all starved ourselves beforehand) the starters and puddings were equally delicious and it was all so good we've already booked to go back. Can highly recommend and the icing on the cake was proper coffee to finish. The Three Ways is a terrific find, we can't wait to go back.

Just had a lovely sunday lunch meat and veg all cooked lovely .Then a really lovely cheese cake all served with a friendly smile and made very wellcome.

This was our second visit since Sue and husband resumed the running of the pub.We took friends from Rutland who were looking for a good night out,we weren't disappointed,a good choice of well kept beer at the bar to choose from is always a must.Three of us had fish pie which was filled with chunks of various types of fish and covered with crusty potato and cheese served up in individual baking dishes,five types of vegetables came as well.The plates were piping hot,a detail often missed in restaurants and shows the Chef is doing their best to please the customer.We finished off with Puddings of ice cream and spotted dick and custard just what was needed on a windy winters night.Well done and thanks for a lovely night.p

Arranged to meet friends from Norwich 27th Jan for a birthday surprise but needed a place somewhere in between us, out came the map and found this wonderful pub. it was worth the drive!.The very friendly customers staff, old country pub atmosphere and really good food was exactly what we were after.Portions were great, pies were delicious cheesecake to die for. But there were quite a few choices so everyone was happy.For a Wednesday night I could not believe how busy they were, talking to one of the locals they have different themed nights too, you could tell he was really prod of his local. There was something for everyone. We could still chat to our friends, but it was lovely to hear chat and laughter. Wish it was closer, I would love to have this place as my own local.

A lovely place we haven't been to in years has been renovated lovely, we arrived and must admit wasn't impressed with the bar tender who didn't greet us or even ask if we wanted a drink. After waiting for the landlady we were shown our table and after were given a menu a few things had sold out (but must be a sign of good food as it had been sold night before) and we weren't given a child's menu was expected to choose a Sunday lunch for them (which we would of chosen but just would of been nice for them to have a menu) the meal was lovely and waitress very good and helpful said we could have more veg and gravy if needed (it wasn't) the meal was excellent and fresh and we had pudding which was also tasty we wasn't kept waiting too long , there was a lovely fire going in the main bar with a very friendly dog who my girls loved on the whole an enjoyable meal maybe an idea for the future would be a colouring for children to do while waiting don't have to be much just a picture of a dog and pot of crayons but thank you

Sue and Chris are very friendly and although we only get to visit periodically they always remember us as do a number of the locals who make new customers and occasional visitors like us always welcome. Have been to two of their themed Tapas nights and are going to a third soon. All the dishes are freshly cooked by Sue and with entertainment laid on as well the evening is fantastic value for money. On a cold winters Sunday afternoon, grab a pint and Snuggle down in a comfy chair next to the fire and it is hard to leave, in the summer you also have a great outdoor area as well. Worth a drive out, give it a go.

We went to the three ways for somewhere different to go and after reading the reviews on here for sunday lunch . We were all very pleased with our meals especially my 5 year old girl who they were very accommodating to and did her a salad for her starter!!! There were plenty of veg available and the waitress asked if we wanted more.All in all a very good experience and we will be back for another meal.Thanks again.

We have just met up with family for a "pre-Christmas" get-together and we're delighted with our Sunday dinner at The Three Ways restaurant! The food was excellent and plentiful, the waitress was charming and the surroundings rustic and cosy. Well done!

Went to The Three Ways in Cowlinge last Sunday for lunch with my family what a lovely little country pub I had the roast beef for lunch the roast potatoes were fantastic probably the best I've ever had, the rest of the meal was pretty awesome too for pudding l had a nut slice which was also very nice. All off the food was freshly cooked which is always a big plus in my book, the restaurant was very cosy with only four tables but people were eating in the bar but I would recommend that you book in advance so that you are not disappointed. The service was very good if a little slow but I guess that's the price you pay for fresh.

Must say how great this little pub is. Warm and welcoming country pub with great food, we don't often like to get a Sunday lunch out as it's never as good as at home but here it was brilliant!! Meat was lovely, and plenty of veg cooked nicely alongside portions of cauliflower cheese. Plenty of gravy brought to the table as well. The bar tender and waitress were both very helpful and welcoming, service was perfect not one problem. Will be visiting again soon!!!

We had not been to this old pub for over a year and was pleasantly surprised to see the original owners were back in charge.A large fire was burning and they have redecorated throughout ,the rustic charm has been kept and transports you back to a time long gone.Five real ales to choose from ,I chose Adnams which was in perfect condition,a starter of olives,bread and dips was followed by a slowly braised lamb dish,finished off with a trio of ice cream,all delicious.Well worth a visit,these places must not be allowed to go under.

We popped down for a Sunday roast and the food was fantastic. Lovely warm friendly atmosphere and a great place to take the dog as she was very welcome. Will definitely be going again.

My wife & I enjoyed a fabulous evening at The Three Ways pub at Cowlinge last night.Since the original owners, Sue & Chris returned to this cosy pub earlier this year the pub is going from strength to strength.After a perfect pint of Woodfordes Nog and a tasty rose wine in front of the warm fire, we sat down to a sumptuous three course meal.Everything was delicious, all obviously home made and served impeccably. For starters I had the tasty Spanish Fabada and my wife had the very fresh whitebait. Our main courses were again delicious - I enjoyed the venison bourguignon pie, filled with plenty of meat in a tasty shortcrust pastry & my wife said she had the tastiest fish pie she'd every had.The sticky toffee pudding with a creamy custard was again probably one of the best I've ever enjoyed, while my wife enjoyed a homemade brownie with fresh cream.Our hosts Chris, Sue and the attentive waitress (sorry we didn't get your name) were so friendly and welcoming. After being let down by several overly priced pub restaurants in the area recently, we're so pleased that we visited this pub for what was a memorable meal at sensible prices. We thoroughly recommend a visit to this great gem of a pub - you won't be disappointed! We'll be back again very soon.

Without a doubt the best Sunday roast around!! The food was just great. Roast beef was brill! Just all round great. Dessert was home made and delicious ❤️ if your travelling that way make sure you call up and book as they get busy. Well worth the money and trip. YUM!!

Lovely warm friendly pub. Loved the dog ! Great real ales. Nice wine. Reasonable prices. Had the lamb was lovely. Paella looked lovely. Fussy friends liked it too. Did ask for a big bowl of chips to share but one small bowl came out they looked under cooked but were actually very nice. Little stingey on veg portions. Had a pud of loaded chocolate brownie it was superb. Afraid travelled 40 mins to get here which is why we probably won't be returning. I would be pleased if it was my local.
