The best restaurants in Lavenham Babergh East of England

Delicious food & extensive menu! Beautiful surroundings & attentive staff! Would recommend these tearooms to everyone!

Amazing ice cream! A big bonus for us was that it was suitable for our nut-allergic son, who almost never gets this sort of ice cream treat. The lady was very knowledgeable about her ingredients as it’s homemade, and made sure she got a fresh scoop for him too. He declared it the best ice cream ever! The coffee was also delicious, piping hot & served in beautiful eco-friendly cups with different designs. Highly recommend and not just for the summer, the hot chocolate looked amazing too and there was a lovely selection of gifts in the shop.

A delicious meal served by charming staff in a beautiful period building.

We can’t scream about this place enough! The food, the service and the ambiance is first class. We ate in the brasserie and were served by Sorin and Liam, nothing was too much trouble. Dave was excellent in the bar and was extremely friendly. We ate the venison and a pie, both of which were delicious. We’ve already booked to come back. Please thank the team for making our night so special

Had lunch with a friend having been recommended to this restaurant- lovely friendly staff and quaint old building and very nice lunch

A lovely tearoom. Our first choice to visit for breakfast when we go to Lavenham . The staff are friendly, always a warm welcome . Good choice of food, freshly prepared . Good coffee and delicious hot chocolate . Highly recommended!

I wish I could write a positive review, but my husband and I were made to feel very unwelcome. Perhaps I just caught the gentleman at a bad moment, but there really is no excuse for making a customer feel like an inconvenience.

We had a great meal on Thursday evening. Really good value and the staff were lovely with the children!

Requested a twin room but arrived to be shown into a double. Couldn't be changed until the following day apparently! Went down for breakfast on Saturday morning at about 8:30 (breakfast served from 8 - 10). No staff apart from the cleaner. She kindly tried to provide some tea, milk and cereals - and bread. So we made do without a cooked breakfast (included in the rate we paid). At about 9:10 a young lady appeared who offered us a cooked breakfast just as we were about to leave the restaurant. No apology. No kitchen staff. Just awful. I did get an apology from the General Manager later that day and Sunday morning breakfast was fine. Certainly won't use this hotel again.

We ate on site once and picked it up once. And both times delicious!! Really delicious food!! The portions are quite large (when taken away)! We had a lot left over. But really; sooo delicious!!!

Visited for Lazy Lunch Spa Afternoon. Excellent value and would return again. Bubbles, lunch, spa treatment all for £135.

A fantastic pub with friendly, helpful staff. We visited on a Sunday with our little dog for a roast dinner. The roast was delicious and filling, although we managed room for desserts (sticky toffee and apple crumble). A lovely place to visit

We has a very positive experience at the Cock Horse today. We had the fish and chips which was very fresh and plentiful. It was served with garden peas and a generous portion of tartar sauce. It was on on offer today at buy one get one free, I had an elderflower cordial and my husband had a Guinness which amounted to £19.55 which we thought was excellent value! The service was also great and the staff looked happy in their work and were very polite and friendly. An added bonus was we were able to sit outside on the lovely outside tables with sun shades. Thank you, we shall be popping in again very soon!

Lovely food and atmosphere!!! Food was tasty and great value for money. The young waitress maddie who bought over our drinks and popadoms was very polite and helpful. Jenny was very friendly and could and do not enough for us. Would definitely recommend.
