The Wentworth Hotel and Restaurant in Suffolk Coastal

One of our favourite places to go, excellent food and a lovely dining room 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Very noisy in the main area of the restaurant

Amazing value for money, food is gorgeous and very child friendly!

Enjoyed large well presented portion of fish n chips

The staff are brilliant they could not do enough for you they are a credit to the restaurant excellent i thank you

Delicious food, great staff, friendly atmosphere, it’s not our first visit because every-time we go, we are never disappointed

Great venue great atmospherics great service beautiful food

My niece bought me this for my birthday last Saturday it was beautiful and the waitress and waiter were all lovely would definitely recommend

Had an afternoon tea gift voucher for 2. The Bothy had a relaxing atmosphere, service was friendly and food delicious. Plenty of food we couldn't finish it all and they gave us boxes to take it home.

Booked a table today (Aug 15th) for my birthday meal. We intended on having two courses and a dessert. Arrived on time for our booking, but had to wait due to a delay in getting us seated. Got our drinks order shortly after being seated, and they took our food order. The starter of a sharing cheese platter took an age to be brought to us. After we finished our starter, we waited, and waited, and waited for our mains to be delivered, we had run out of drinks, nobody offered us another, the mains were delivered as we were about to cancel...we no longer had time for a dessert, due to them taking an hour and 15mins to deliver our main meal....food good....worst service I've ever encountered.

Roast dinner was beautiful. We also had the hot fudge "Bruce" cake and a banana split...both were beautiful.

Beautiful decor, lovely staff , great food will definitely be coming again 😍

Excellent. The staff were friendly and welcoming. We all had the gamekeepers breakfast. Extra for black pudding. Would highly recommend the black pudding. Very tasty. If you want an extra special breakfast this is the place to come. Would definitely go again.

Always a lovely breakfast here!

Had the full English breakfast, which was good and a mocha. The breakfast itself was very filling, however wasn’t a fan of the bacon as it was way saltier than the usual bacon I’ve had. I like the interior as it was very cosy and modern and you get a choice of sitting inside or outside or in the glass part.

Wed called in on a very hot day for coffee and a scone. We initially sat down outside but a gardener came along spraying weedkiller around our feet. Knowing this was hazardous we got up and went inside. We ordered 2 Americano's and cheese scones. To our disbelief the cheese scones came out with the small packs of Flora Margarine. to spread on them. We immediately challenged this and they were then replaced with butter. What sort of establishment brings out Flora margarine with a cheese scone this is a bakery/deli crime.

Worth a visit , Good food , lovely helpful staff .

Definitely a must visit food atmosphere amazing

We were recommended this hotel by old friends. The room with meals was expensive for what was on offer. The room was dark, rather grubby and smelt awful. We decided not to stay moved to an alternative hotel.

Food really nice, service is always excellent

Good service & nice atmosphere & surroundings. Afternoon tea A bit disappointed in the sandwich selection would have been nice to pick from a selection instead of a set menu & having more basic sandwiches like ham etc would be better for picky eaters. The sausage roll was a small slice which was disappointing. The selection of cakes were nice & unlimited tea & coffee is a nice touch. It is expensive compared to other afternoon teas which for the same price include a bottle of prosecco for the table.

Love there bacon and egg butty 2nd to none

Probably the classiest place around for afternoon tea or a substantial lunch. Beautifully decorated room in the William Morris style, quality table wear and attentive staff make a visit to remember. Afternoon tea for us on this visit was tastefully presented and copious. We needed a doggy bag! My gluten/wheat intolerance was catered for as was my vegetarian choice a rare combination for a food business to cope with. Two small criticisms, no savoury gluten-free element provided (little quiche or tartlet or even a sausage roll) and the bread my sandwiches were made from was a tiny bit too thick and dry but I am being picky. By the way did you know that a Bothy is a shepherd's hut often found on estates such as Wentworth? A note to finish with, if you are with hard of hearing guests they may struggle with the acoustics.

Good Quality food and friendly staff

We came to celebrate my mother's 97th Birthday, and we were treated to a delicious Afternoon Tea in the lovely Wentworth Hotel. Nothing was too much trouble for the lovely, polite, attentive Joe, who sprang into action every time my mother needed anything, from her arrival in a wheelchair, when Joe magicked up some ramps to get her safely and comfortably up the steps, to his lovely gentle manner at the table, ensuring we had everything we needed. He was wonderful, as was a fine gentleman (who I presume may have been the owner of the hotel?), who oversaw everything and made us feel quite special. Everything was perfect, from the delicious and very fresh sandwiches, the scrumptious fruit scones and a gorgeous selection of cakes, etc, which my daughter said were the best selection she's had - and she's an Afternoon Tea aficionado! I separately ordered and enjoyed the amazing cheese scone with chilli jam, which was just perfect! A thoroughly enjoyable afternoon, lovely memories to treasure!

Sunday lunch is great, my daughter loves the afternoon tea. Atmosphere is good some of the waitresses look a bit peeved to be there though 🤣

Lovely, but a little on the expensive side.

Wonderful hotel, like going on a 1930s time warp, country house feel, excellent food, fish a speciality. Excellent value set meals, could see the sea from our table,

We went for Sunday lunch and it did not disappoint. Amazing beef dinner which was not over facing. Really lovely setting with attentive (but not pushy) staff. We would thoroughly recommend The Bothy

Lovely Sunday lunch for Fathers Day

We really enjoyed our breakfast and the staff were fantastic definitely going back

Lovely lunch. Warm and friendly staff.

Just had a lovely Sunday dinner which we would recommend however the service was a bit random, when we asked the waiter for the desserts menu he never returned leaving us sat there 😟

Portions seem much smaller today. Rosti over cooked and tasted weird. Bacon missing from one breakfast and eggs were tiny. Disappointing today ☹️ Staff always lovely though .

Booked because of good reviews and thought a special night and meal was in order. Very disappointed Terrible service by disinterested waiting staff. Put in a back room where non residents were put. OK but we had to get up and fetch a menu after 20 minutes and were asked straight awaY what we wanted to eat . Had a starter, not very good, personally we think a thickened fish soup, with no garlic taste to roulle. Waited another 3/4 hour before a waiting staff returned, looking confused. We asked how long we would have to wait and when the waiter said he was not sure, we realised at that point that we were not important so we went to the counter to explain why we were leaving. Equally disinterested manager...therefore we were very pleased we left.

Lovely atmosphere, lovely food and outstanding service.

Came for afternoon tea. Service was great. Food was lovely. Nice atmosphere. Will definitely come back again.

We met with friends for lunch in The Bothy. It's a nice quiet relaxing atmosphere where you have enough space to talk. The food & service was excellent.

Had the pie very nice hot and filling didn’t have room for pudding well worth the money

The food and service are always excellent. The only issue I have is the staff ‘uniform’. Those skintight, skinny jeans are horrible. They look unprofessional and uncomfortable.

Fantastic visit Always lovely food with fantastic surroundings

Lovely relaxed atmosphere pleasant decor and great friendly staff Accessible for wheelchair plenty of parking

Excellent afternoon tea with phenomenal service. Our party of seven thoroughly enjoyed ourselves leaving very full and a goodie box of leftovers.

Fabulous time with family (party of seven) in a beautiful setting. Food was great, specific requests were no problem. Plenty of food with boxes provided to bring leftovers home. Tea and coffee plentiful with a good selection of blends. Staff were extremely helpful and friendly but not intrusive. A lovely way to spend the afternoon.

Had a very tasty gamekeepers breakfast. Very enjoyable all round. Thank toun

From the moment that you step inside the Bothy there is a very relaxed air and a warm welcome from the staff. The choice of decor combined with comfortable seating and chilled music playing in the background adds to whole ambiance. There is a fantastic choice for breakfast and it is always delivered swiftly to your table . The food is beautifully cooked and portions are generous. We highly recommend eating here

Went for birthday treat. Lovely surroundings, attentive pleasant staff and nicely presented and tasty afternoon tea. Very good value.

I was treated to afternoon tea. Highly recommended

Beautiful food, beautiful venue. I would definitely recommend

Very professional and polite staff . food was excellent

Delicious food, great servers 🧡

This is my go to place, never had a bad meal, reasonably priced , lovely staff. Great selection of food

Well well well what can I say, I was impressed: the cleanliness, the ambiance, the service and the food was exceptional. My burger was delicious nice and juicy and the cake was perfect. The happy birthday toppers were sweet touches for my birthday lunch. Well done team Bothy. 👍🏽

My wife and I had afternoon tea, yesterday. First impressions were of a very nice venue, and welcoming staff on the front desk. We were taken to our seats and the lady explained the afternoon tea structure and pointed us towards the menu of teas and coffee that were available. Within a few minutes a fresh jug of ice cold water arrived. Strangely the young girl didn't utter a word, just plonked it down and left, no reply to our thanks. Five or so more minutes past, ten or fifteen minutes after being seated, and we were wondering when our drinks order would be taken. Fortunately we managed to grab the young male server, who was busy rushing around and to be fair to him he took our order with no complaint and was very cheery and polite. The afternoon tea arrived and was fantastic. Clearly all very freshly made and of excellent quality and very tasty. The only complaint I had about the food was one of the scones must have had an accident in the oven as it was almost wedge shaped, I wouldn't have thought anyone plating up would have accepted to put it on a plate in all honesty. We'd almost finished the sandwiches and savouries when our drinks finally arrived however, which again was disappointing, especially as we'd slow timed the sandwiches to wait for a drink. All in all the food was lovely, the setting is very nice and the Java coffee was excellent. The whole experience was sadly let down by the service. An elderly lady on the table next to the till had to get up after her mains were taken away to ask for a dessert menu and we did note that after the food arrived and we'd not managed to eat all the desserts, at no time did any of the servers approach to ask if everything was ok with the food, it seems to be standard practice in every restaurant? We did consider that with waiting times for drinks, being freshly made of course, it may have been better had the drinks order been taken when we were seated. Overall a nice venue, great food and worth a visit to see for yourself.

Amazing food and service! Located within Wentworth Garden Centre, it has a fantastic range of high quality food. Would highly recommend going for breakfast/brunch, many times, to try all the menu.

Came for delayed Mothers Day meal 16th March. Food mediocre but we were in the conservatory which was really cold. Won’t go again unless I can be in main restaurant

Gorgeous restaurant I didn’t even know was there! The food is beautiful, very fresh and tasty. Service was amazing, the staff are all so lovely. Decor of the restaurant is absolutely gorgeous. I think it will be my new favourite place to eat!

Beautiful place, great food and exception service from the staff 10/10

Nice place, food okay too apart from the chocolate oreo cake. Awful.

Lovely place to visit. Lovely food . Great service and had a brill time .

Situation in Wentworth Garden centre the bothy is a beautiful bistro restaurant. A lot of people pre book but we've been several times and always got a table with out booking. The staff are lovely friendly and efficient. The food is really nice and good value for money .there is a conservatory and outdoor eating the atmosphere is relaxing and botanical. A very good alternative if the other big cafe is busy or your celebrating or just fancy a quaint up market restaurant. The garden centre has a very large carpark . The venue is large with disabled access easy for people in wheelchairs .

Lovely Afternoon Tea with my children! Would definitely recommend 😀

Expensive. Scone seemed a bit undercooked. Chutney for the cheese scone was very acidic. Shame. Would have struck with a brew.

Absolutely superb food & service ,we called for lunch and were spoilt for choice, they also do afternoon teas , very stylish, wheelchair accessible,

Afternoon tea was lovely. Prefer to have small slices of their beautiful cakes than the small dainty thing they give you, but lovely all the same

Went to the Bothy for breakfast one Friday morning. Greated with a warm smiling face, She took us to our seats. The waitress came to ask if we would like to order drinks, then brought them and asked if we were ready to order from the menu. The food came hot and looked mouth watering. We were asked if everything was to our taste. It was lovely we asked for the bill. Everything was delicious.

The bothy it's self is wonderfully decorated and the front of house staff are pleasant. Unfortunately our visit yesterday (29/02/25) was a bit disappointing. There was obviously an issue in the kitchen as we were seated at our table at 13:30 but didn't get our lunch served until 14:45(ish). It wasn't until nearly an hour later that the waiting staff acknowledge we'd be waiting for "a while" and offered to refresh our tea and coffee. Once our meals arrived the vegetarian tikka masala was tasty and filling but the fish and chips were a bit disappointing. The fish itself was fresh but the batter was a bit soggy and chips slightly over cooked. So, after removing the batter and picking out the best of the chips & adding mushy peas we did get enough to eat. As compensation we were offered free cakes to take home, which I noticed several dinners took the offer up. However, we declined but appreciated the offer. I'm sure waiting time for service isn't usually this long and we appreciate that food is freshly cooked so it's not going to arrive instantly but I think we should have been informed on our arrival that there was an issue of some sort and we could have made the choice to stay at the bothy or go to one of the other eateries on site. It's such a shame as we'd made a special trip to visit the bothy. The rest of our visit to the garden centre, gardens and shop was enjoyable and leisurely.

Visited today for a birthday lunch, and the food was of a high standard as always, and the service was fabulous. Really recommend the salads and the fish and chips, but leave room for dessert as they are amazing! One of my favourite places to eat as the menu is great (something for everyone) and the decor is lovely. Always busy so best to book online, especially weekends.

Lovely food, well presented and great quality. Brilliant service and a beautiful environment

Lovely atmosphere and friendly staff, food was faultless and very nicely presented.

Had lunch on Tues 12.45, extremely busy for February, but it always seems to be busy here whenever you visit. Good quality food with good quality service, friendly staff. We will be back again.

Superb afternoon tea in a wonderful place with great service

A fantastic restaurant offering a wide choice from the menu. Very stylish surroundings..table service with great friendly staff.

A great place to eat. Very child friendly . Great staff.

Great service and food but a touch noisy this lunchtime.

Amazing food, wonderful service.

Pleasant surroundings, good food and service, plenty of free car parking. What more could you want?

Relatively expensive but a lovely menu, food and atmosphere.

Afternoon tea. £48 for a round of sandwiches each. Cut nicely! The scone tasted fresh and was tasty. But .. the sandwiches had evidently been stood for a while . Some of the bread was dry. The cakes were stale and tasteless. Covered in cream to mask the fact? Afternoon tea was evidently a popular choice, couldn't cope with the amount required? For £48 it would have been nice to have something fresh. Not even a salad garnish. You evidently pay for the privilege of eating there not for the food. Staff looked run off their feet.

Best fish and chips I've had, lovely place. Great service.

Always our choice for food and refreshments at Wentworth Gardens Centre. The interior is lovely, as well as the food. We both had the steak sandwiches with a coffee. Highly recommend.

Amazing place the Afternoon Tea was so nice .. I have a food allergy and after been turned down by many places it was such a joy that this place adapted my needs 100% ... We can't wait to go back thank you Rachel 🙏 for your help and making my birthday so special ☺️

Amazing ,beautiful place food fantastic father Christmas came round everyone at the table it was great

Great food, friendly staff, could do with wifi,also you can’t tip with your card.

Beautiful food as always! Today Rachel went above and beyond. I visited the Bothy with my family to celebrate my birthday. My youngest child has autism. Rachel made the whole experience so much easier for all of us! Thank you Rachel! See you all again very soon. I love the place 💕

Beautiful!! We visited this place on new year's eve and nearly didn't get to experience it because we got lost on the way and arrived after the kitchens closed! But the staff were so lovely that they let us in and we ordered some pizzas! The food was amazing, atmosphere so cosy, I was so full and relaxed by the end of it that I found it hard to get out of my chair! 😂 5 out of 5! Will definitely come back here to explore the rest of the menu! 😊

I had the full breakfast, one of the best I've ever had. Coffee is very nice and the cakes are a work of art with taste to match.

We called in as a party of four at the beginning of December. Despite how absolutely rammed it was with customers the food and service were top drawer. Couldn’t fault either. Staff were very friendly and our meals were excellent. First time we had been but definitely not the last. Can recommend and will return.

Fantastic food choice and service. Highly recommend

Food and atmosphere was lovely. We will certainly come back for afternoon tea.

Perfect venue we had Christmas Lunch with relatives meal was absolutely superb and perfectly cooked and served. Staff, as always, very attentive. Situated in wonderful location.

Lovely restaurant, nice food. Much quieter than the garden centre restaurant.

Feels wrong saying how great this place is as I'd like to keep it secret

Lovely food, friendly helpful staff. Dreadful music!

Although we really enjoyed it and the staff are EXCELLENT I'm not convinced £48 for what was basically a few fingers sandwiches and buns is worth it!!

We called in for breakfast before looking around the garden centre and all 4 of us had the full breakfast. Fantastic food very attentive staff in lovely surroundings. Good value for money too. We will be back for more. Keep up the good work.

Fabulous place good food and variety

Went for breakfast it was lovely and the service was excellent.

Just had a beautiful afternoon tea in the Bothy. Amazing selection for us vegetarians, the food was amazing as always. The staff are so friendly and helpful.

Alwaya have a great experience. Warm welcome, friendly staff and lovely food. Delicious desserts too if you have room for one
