The Whistlestop Cafe in Suffolk Coastal

Excellent Cafe, Staff food and drinks, fantastic. Been here twice and will be back.

Beautiful scrambled egg and all day breakfast. Food was cooked to perfection. Best prices in Woodbridge.

Really generous cake portions particularly I recommend the carrot cake and great coffee. Loved the atmosphere too. Thank you whistlestop.

Really enjoyed lunch, lovely food and atmosphere.

Happened upon this excellent little cafe by sheer coincidence one Saturday morning. Received a warm reception from the staff, the English Breakfast was fantastic and reasonably priced too. In keeping with its railway tradition the decor is themed with nostalgia from the railroad. Well worth a visit ☺️

Nice place to pop in and have lunch, friendly service and good food 😋

Our favourite breakfast stop in Woodbridge always friendly and polite. Great selection of food and drinks.

You’ve tried the rest , Now try the BEST ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Wow, fish and chips were amazing, the freshest fish, the lightest batter with a choice of 'Stokes' condiments enjoyed with a glass of fizz, followed with local salted caramel icecream What really stands out is the amazing happy to serve you staff - even on a Monday! One fot the memory bank

Lovely little find with friendly welcoming staff, clearly very popular as I was lucky to get a table inside. Interior is decorated with train and station related items, nicely done.

Always great food and friendly staff

A throwback to the traditional English cafe; wonderful food, very friendly service and excellent value for money. Unsurprisingly the venue is very popular so reservations are recommended from mid morning through lunch service. If you're going to try the large brunch then skip breakfast!

We love coming here with our two dogs. Super dog friendly. Amazing staff and great food ❤️

Our 'go to' place for breakfast/brunch in Woodbridge, especially before boarding a train on a day out. Very friendly staff, excellent selection of food and drink and very reasonably priced. Dog friendly and ourside seating during warmer weather

My wife and I visited the whistle stop on a Friday afternoon, we were greeted by a pleasant railway waiting room repurposed into a restaurant. We ordered two latte's which were served shortly afterwards which were nice and hot. We ordered our food, which took a short while and were so surprise not only at the quality of the food but also the quantity. Full marks the the staff you do your employers proud👏

Hidden in the station building I suspect most visitors wouldn't know it was there. This is a classic British cafe, but with modern sensibilities, salad with bacon sandwich a good example. Staff are fun and charming. Its not large so recommend booking if you can. Was full of locals who obviously know a good thing when they see it. Good place to take visitors who haven't seen a British cafe. Excellent bacon sandwich and coffee ☕ Very dog friendly, outside space for summer.

We had a party of 7 people including some dietary requirements but everything was catered for perfectly and we enjoyed a hearty lunch at a great price. I had the sausage and egg bap on a white roll which was large, absolutely delicious and a perfect lunch overall.

Brilliant place for food. Really lovely staff that are so friendly. We love coming for breakfasts or lunch.

Great food, friendly service, lovely setting and atmosphere

Excellent food, reasonably priced,friendly staff who took our slightly trick order with no fuss

We went to The Whistlestop Cafe for some lunch on a visit to Woodbridge, the service received was superb, the food was very good & portion sizes were generous, it can get a bit pushed for space as it's not a big place & there are a lot of people that use it, this to me is a good sign! We would certainly visit there again!

A real gem, brilliant all-day breakfast, with local produce, great variety, popular with locals… what a find.

food was super nice and priced well, definitely will go back!!

Fabulous well run, friendly & great food highly recommended!!

Lovely cafe, lovely staff and the food is reasonably priced is is very good! Highly recommend, I stop here for brunch often as there is always tables free and is easy to get too. There is also outdoor seating if your stopping off there after a dog walk.

Well situated quaint cafe in an easily accessible location just next to the train station near pubs and the cinema. Went for a lunch on a sunny weekend. The front of house staff were very helpful and had good customer service. Unfortunately there was a slight lack of seating available, and the food took 40 minutes to arrive, the napkins the cutlery was folded with was soggy which was unfortunate. They had a large range of food, the breakfasts could have done with hash browns however. Overall a decent lunch, you get what you pay for.

Recently l had a very nice lunch and the food/service was very good. I would recommend eating here.

Lovely place to eat we had scones and coffee but the breakfast looked good

I had the fish and chips with an Adnams beer. The fish was perfect with crisp but not greasy batter. A lovely lunch in the sunshine at the tables outside.

Always a treat to come here for breakfast. The food is well priced and is of good quality. My only pet peeve is that they don’t serve pancakes/American style breakfast.

Been lot's of times and all ways have really good fast fresh food every time

Very welcoming. Clean & tidy, always fresh tasty food. Friendly staff who can't do enough for you, they are exceptional 😊 Plus doggy friendly & treats given.

Very nice breakfast but served too late in the morning - 9am is not breakfast time, it’s when people get to work! Even an hour earlier would’ve been better.

Excellent by the looks of it, just so busy no seating, wanted a breakfast but one hour wait, so it was tea and coffee cake delicious 😋

We've become regulars at this cute Cafe. Breakfast is always spot on! Polite and friendly staff & dog friendly which a big plus for us - our bulldog loves it there. If you are in Woodbridge and you're looking for a decent breakfast this is the place! You won't be disappointed.

Excellent cafe, with great food (especially the breakfasts) and tea / coffee options. Very welcoming and friendly staff.

Nice food averagely priced with outdoor and indoor seating in the old waiting room.

The best cooked breakfast I have had and at a reasonable price. When we go back to woodbridge we go every morning possible!!

Love this place. Great food, great staff.

Lovely, well priced, unpretentious - excellent value and helpful staff. Perfect for an all day breakfast, and the tea comes in a proper large pot!

Good fresh food. The gal at the register could have been more friendly. I had the ham sandwich with broccoli soup.

Very friendly staff and good food as well, very accommodating.

Friendly welcoming staff and great food. Can get really busy, but worth it. Good Veggie options, nothing beats a decent traditional fried breakfast for me.

Decent quality food but limited choice of menue

Enjoyed the food and staff were very pleasant.

Great place! Helpful and pleasant staff, good value, good quality food. I had ham, egg & chips and only spent over £10 because I also had a bowl of salad. There was almost enough for two people! Dog-friendly too. Environment is good too - clean & nicely decorated.

This has been my favourite cafe for some years but recently we’ve struggled to get a place to sit. 3 times now we’ve arrived (after paying to park) & none of the times have we actually been able to find a table. It’s great it’s so busy as it’s a lovely cafe & the food is brilliant but I truly feel they are taking outside seating away as to not swamp the kitchen with orders. There is plenty of space outside but nowhere near enough tables for people. I think we may have to find another cafe ☹️

Delicious food and very reasonably priced. Staff lovely, kind and polite. They always get me a pillow to sit on due to having a bad back without any fuss. It is the cafe of love and kindness.

We had table service outside in the sunshine and no passing traffic. Stones, fruit cake, tea and coffee served with a smile. Nice young man cleared and wiped table. Very friendly and good food.

Small place with outside seating on the railway. Good quality food, large portions and good value. A very sweet (quaint) atmosphere where locals come. I had the small English breakfast (which is huge), my friend had the bacon, egg, and sausage bap. The coffee’s good too. 😊👍🏼

Delicious food with good service, what more could you want!

5 star breakfast and service, even though we were a bit awkward. Sorry

Great service. Very friendly and good food & drink. Brought iced water out to people sat outside when hot and sunny. A nice touch!

Great food indoors or outside. The waitresses are on the go all the time, which shows how popular the cafe is, but they are always cheerful. Dog friendly too.

It was a bit busy as it was a small place, but it was a nice environment and the food was good.

It’s been more than a few years since I was in the area but I thought I’d return to the cafe once again and I wasn’t disappointed, a great breakfast (with fried bread) and friendly service so highly recommended

Really friendly place serving a selection of delicious foods & drinks. Outside eating available.

Nice touch of old world feel, good cup of tea and very pleasant staff. Free dog biscuits offered!!

Fantastic staff serving good food at a great price with a smile and a spring in their step. A Little gem,

Very good cafe for breakfast after a long cycle ride.

Brilliant breakfast. Nice and hot, good quality meat.Vegetarian choice. Great value. Great ambience and clean. Staff lovely, they have dog beds and dog treats. Check opening hours as not open everyday. Accommodation available. Ideal location as a base to explore the Suffolk/Norfolk Coast by train.

Am a vegetarian. As often as possible I have a vegetarian brunch with saute potatoes. I am 76. This is the only restaurant I have eaten at, where the whole plate of food arrives piping hot. Every time. The fried eggs are perfectly cooked. The staff are always friendly and very helpful. Cakes and coffee very high quality. Definitely 5 star.

Always friendly and quick service! Sometimes quite tricky to get a table but that’s just because they’re so popular, for good reason! Really lovely food, a big menu (big portions too!), and clued up on allergens when asked if anything contained nuts, plus perfect cappuccinos! Love it here :)

Great breakfast and friendly service, highly recommend this place

Great prompt attentive service and good prices.

Lovely chocolate brownie, friendly staff, cosy fire in the stove.

I have to give 5 stars because the food, drinks and service were all just perfect. My photo might not truly show but they must have a great chef out back because every element was cooked faultlessly. It was the best cooked English breakfast I've had in about 2 years and I've tried so so many, at much higher prices as well. In considering, i couldn't actually fault it in a single way. The staff are down to earth and lovely. My Berry smoothie was really delicious! Coffee very nice. The staff are down to earth and lovely. I just wish there was room for better toilet facilities. There is only one toilet and its not the best and uncomfortably close to the kitchen. However, everything was so great I still can't rate the whistlestop lower then 5 stars despite this!

Very full menu friendly and helpful staff and great food

Great service and great food today for our family brunch, seated in the outside marquee which was lovely and warm. Girls who served us were so polite and helpful, even bringing my granddaughters a spoon each for their hot chocolate whipped cream! Our dog was also very comfortable on one of the dog mats provided. Highly recommend this cafe.

Fantastic all day breakfast, best in Woodbridge and not expensive, staff are so friendly and accommodating, lovely warm cafe and the outside bit is nice too, can’t wait to take the kids back again for brunch

Food was really hot well worth the money

Really friendly cafe, staff brilliant with dogs and gave them treats. Good food and service. Will definitely go again

Got a take away breakfast today, beautiful, very tasty, great service, friendly staff. Highly recommend 😋😋

The Roast Pork today was so so tasty, great fresh vegetables, thank you for a delicious lunch . Also friendly staff.

Best cafe around!!! Never ever had a bad meal, and we've been a lot in the last 3 plus years. It's always our first choice. Yes it's busy and popular, but that speaks volumes for the service and food you'll get. Carla is so lovely and friendly. Dog friendly place too and always has dog treats and beds available too. Brilliant menu and food always delicious 😋

Great staff, good food, outside seating, indoors very 1950's Railway Station bar/ Buffet look and ambience.

Excellent lunch in this popular cafe. Indoors and outside seating, just wait for a table. Varied choice of light lunches and drinks. Nice setting..

Stopped for lunch couldn't sit inside all reserved, went to order but needed a table number outside managed to grab a table outside but as I was on my own had to ask a couple on another table to save me the table so I could go back inside to order my food, they brought my food and not the coffee had to ask again for that, I know they was busy but staff didn't seem to know what they were doing won't go again

The brunch here is an absolute favourite of mine - high quality ingredients, consistently well cooked and the best sauteed potatoes I have found in Suffolk.

Brilliant service very polite staff clean friendly

Very friendly service and solid, good value breakfast/lunch dishes.

Three stars at the moment. Couldn't get a table on my birthday so had to go elsewhere. I will be back. I will modify this rating.

I've tried to eat here twice now. On the first occasion my partner and I waited at the 'please wait here to be seated' sign. After the short lady walked past us for the third time without so much of an aknowledgement we gave up and left. We decided to give it another go a few weeks later. This time we ventured straight inside and inquired with the blonde lady what could be offered for breakfast that was vegan friendly. She replied: 'uuuuurrrrgghhh I hate it when people ask me that'. She listed off a few ingredients namely beans, tomatoes and mushrooms and then suggested I could have a jacket potato and beans. It was 10.30am. Pretty pathetic. We won't bother again.

We had a most enjoyable lunch here sat outside in their garden. Plenty of Covid precautions in place made us feel safe. The food was of excellent quality, huge portions and a fair price. We would have no hesitation in eating there again.

First time here today, for lunch on my birthday. And it was amazing, from the speedy service to the tasty food. We will definitely return

One of the best breakfasts in the country and the best in Suffolk. Amazing menu: every dish is delicious.

Good service. Order came quickly. Food well presented and everytime I have been here perfectly cooked. Not me the food.

I visited 2 days ago with my 89 year old mum. We were served by Carla, who was an absolute delight. So friendly and especially kind and thoughtful to my mum. The service was very prompt and efficient but not rushed by any means, given how busy the outside area was. Our meals were delicious and the prices were extremely reasonable, I cannot recommend the Whistlestop Cafe highly enough, a real jewel in Woodbridge's hospitality business.

Very friendly and covid safe service. Delicious coffee and bacon butty. Highly recommended.

Very nice staff always there two help they work very hard bless them ,we always return Xx

Food was good and I took my dogs, they gave them something to lay on..

Whistlestop used to be our go to for amazing cooked breakfasts , since covid we have been using it for our picnic takeouts . The sausage rolls are really good my grandchildren love them and I love the cheese scones . But we are now also looking forward to heading back for a weekend cooked breakfast

Brilliant egg and bacon granary sandwich.

Called in for first time on Monday and had an all day breakfast. We'll definitely return next week to try something else. Its a fully covered outside eating place with heaters

Had a very enjoyable lunch here last week. Sat inside in warm comfortable area. My dog was given a bed to lie on and dog treats. The staff were friendly and efficient and made every effort to make it a good experience. The food was tasty and well cooked.

Good simple hot tasty food. Ladies working there are friendly and fun..

Food is very good value for money, staff are very curtious, would recommend.

Always pleasant staff and warm welcoming. Great takeaway breakfast service, always perfect 👌

Full English breakfast was top class, & great value. Staff were very helpful & very attentive. And a decent Americano too.

Only had drinks but hot chocolate was great. Service very quick. Nice location.
