Wagyu Burgers & Street Food in Babergh

If you’re after a classic country pub with no frills, just timeless charm and great food, The Wheatsheaf is the place to go. This old-fashioned gem is full of character, with its rustic interiors, warm ambiance, and a proper traditional pub vibe. The menu stays true to its roots, offering comforting, classic dishes without the need for modern twists. I tried the fish and chips, and it was everything you’d hope for—crispy, golden batter encasing tender, flaky fish, served with perfectly cooked chips. It’s hearty, satisfying, and exactly what a pub meal should be. Dog lovers will especially appreciate The Wheatsheaf, as it’s wonderfully dog-friendly. After a countryside stroll, it’s the perfect spot to unwind, with water bowls and even treats available for your four-legged companions. The staff were friendly, attentive, and clearly take pride in maintaining the warm, inviting feel of the pub. Whether you’re looking for a classic meal, a pint in a cozy setting, or somewhere to bring your dog, The Wheatsheaf is a true treasure.

Great village pub, lovely atmosphere and friendly staff.

We arranged to meet our Mother in Law for a meal for Mothering Sunday here last night. The place was welcoming from the get-go with friendly servers. My Father in law doesn't eat meat and isn't much of a fish lover either, so although the steak options suited 3 of the party, we were looking at a limited option for him. However, we asked Katie Partridge, the owner, if there were any other options, and she suggested a Thai banana flower dish. 🌼 Well, we all had a fine eating experience, Katie even bought out a Thai sauce for the 3 steak dishes, which was first class. We all had a really great time , the place was super friendly and extremely accommodating for our dietary likes. I can't remember having such a warm welcome from a pub as we did last night. Nothing appeared too much trouble and the food was delicious. Thank you 😊

Quirky delightful shop with great value handbags and clothes, as well as sundry gifts. The owners made us welcome and told us about their Friday morning crafting sessions around the table centre store.

This place could be so good, but the problem is they are so hit and miss. Sometimes you get a sandwich and it’s really good, full of filling and lovely and fresh, other times it’s not good at all, which when you’re paying best part of £5 for a sandwich, isn’t good enough, and you’d be better getting a packet sandwich from the local supermarket. Also, sometimes they really make you feel like you’re inconveniencing them by asking for a sandwich, or they haven’t got enough bread in stock, which surely defeats the object of a deli that does sandwiches?
