The best restaurants in Dodnash Babergh East of England

Visit here frequently as we live locally. Always a friendly welcome. Delicious home made food and cakes. Very accommodating with all their customers. Highly recommend.

We had dinner bed and breakfast here for our anniversary, the room was amazing and the staff couldn’t do any more for us.. even making arrangements for my husband to have his favourite lobster 🦞 I would highly recommend the Lion and we will definitely be returning in the summer to sit in their lovely gardens. Thank you to everyone at the Lion 🦁

Lovely village pub run by the friendly locals.great prices and large outside beer garden and park for the little ones.

Such a lovely old country pub full of character and charm. The manager Emma is very warm and welcoming. The menu is extensive and I had trouble deciding what to have, I had the chicken curry that was very tasty and so much lean chicken in it. Lovely fluffy yellow rice and naan bread with mango chutney,very yummy. Definitely going to visit again soon

Great village pub, they don’t come much better than this!

We met with friends for lunch today. East bergholt is a superb location , lion brasserie is a great place to spend time meeting friends. The service was brilliant, no rush at all. I had a steak that was cooked to perfection. The rest of the party enjoyed their food as well. We had a lovely time and will be back soon.

Excellent service from the guy who served us , so friendly .good food and beer , great dog friendly pub. We would return to this pub. Thank you

Wonderful. I put a review on Google, but for those here - you must pay Dawn and her staff a visit. The food, service, ambience is excellent and very good value for money. Plus, even if you haven't a sweet tooth, the cakes & scones are heavenly - writing this my mouth is watering 💖👍👍👍👍👍

This pub offers a friendly pub atmosphere! Great local pub. The landlord is fantastic and very welcoming! Great drinks, open mic nights, and other themes.

Really nice food, best Chinese we’ve had for a while. Travelled from Rayleigh as nothing that great available locally since the Choi Yin closed.

I think this place does the best breakfast and coffee in the whole of Essex, the staff are so accommodating and are such a friendly bunch, it’s family friendly and has a selection of farm animals ranging from goats, horse, 2x highland cows, alpacas, pigs and donkeys, a pond with ducks for adults and children to see and a small play area for children. I just want give a massive shout out to LOIS, she really goes out her way, above and beyond to deliver the best service each and every time I visit and makes this place that extra special.
