The best restaurants in Long Melford Babergh East of England

Lovely little tearoom in the village Long Melford, very warm welcome and service was excellent, tea was loose leaf and cake was lovely, with generous portion. Well worth a visit

Bacon sandwich with all the trimmings - washed down with a pot of tea. Just the job. Comfortable surroundings, on street parking right outside.

What a lovely little place, neat and clean, staff were lovely. The best bit was a slice of awesome cake and a cup of coffee. Definitely worth a visit and cake not to be missed

From the first this is a memorable experience, from the warm welcome to the dishes themselves. The cooking is classic, reinvented English; The menu a temptation. You want to try everything on it, from the shrimp tempura to the tender duck breast; This is geared to foodies. My cooked foie gras on black pudding with a rich jus, simply burst with flavour. And the turbot! Just cooked, with a lobster sauce ; delicious. My wife’s duck with redcurrant sauce was succulent and tender. A rice pudding with deconstructed Blackwell pudding on raspberry jus was full of flavour, yet not too rich. This is a chef with a magic touch, who is attuned to his clientele.

The service and food was absolutely amazing and couldn't do enough for us, and we will definitely go back. The place was very clean and the food was very reasonably priced

Had a fabulous afternoon Tea today! The ladies were so friendly and tentative, the food was incredible and in such abundance! Left feeling very full of delicious treats! Definitely will be returning in the new year!

Visited one evening during a Post Christmas stay in Long Melford. Surprised at how buzzy and welcoming the restaurant was. Paneer Shaslik and Cauliflower Bhaji were the best!!!

Always great service in this little bakery, fantastic cakes and bread made on the premises . Definitely recommend

Pretty good food, good portions, deals for lunch include two main meals and two drinks for £27.50. Lovely historic venue. My sister had an email inviting her for her birthday to a free drink and dessert to be used within less than two weeks. Neither could be used. Apparently the hotel is no longer managed by Greene King and no one has bothered to stop the emails going out. Gary the manager did honor the free dessert. It is a lovely place to visit. Can't really comment on the rooms but forced to rate in Google. Service was ok, primarily saying 'ok' as the bar guy didn't explain why the dessert QR code wouldn't work. Didn't make any effort to help us with it. Had to ask for the manager.

Great food and great prices , this pub offers bargain meals for older folk some lunchtimes but the ordinary menu is very reasonable as well . Service was great and portions and standard of food very good

Bad seating arrangements. Full length mirrors in toilet cubicles. Dry ice gimmick soaked my trousers and the seats. Food was fairly good.

Very friendly staff who were very accommodating when 12 of us visited! Lots of cakes and drinks to choose from.

Me and wife had large cod and chips and started too get a funny oil taste and both feeling ill tonight. Wish i could sick it all up and be done with it

We stayed here for a couple of nights, while we were celebrating my friends 60th birthday party in a nearby village. Everything was great, room was fine, food good. Our only complaint was, when we returned from our friend's party between 10-10.30 pm on the Saturday night, the place was closed and in darkness. For a Saturday night, we were shocked, and as residents I was looking forward to a night cap. Unfortunately that wasn't to be. Such a shame, as if there was a night porter who could have fulfilled our request, would have given it a top review. All the staff were lovely.

The Hare is literally my go to restaurant for the most amazing Pork Belly. The cut is plentiful and always cooked to perfection with a huge amount of crackling. We were there recently for a family meal and all 9 of us commented how good to food was, even better since the last time we went (i'd also have given an Excellent rating for that meal). We will be back soon
