The best restaurants in Babergh East of England

Food was perfect as usual great takeaway and good service

Great food as always, Tasty and good quality.

Came for the first time in a while. Same owners as last time which is a good thing as worried it had gone through a few owners. Green hop festival was excellent with lots of local choice of breweries plus a few non green hop. Had liver and onions and scampi and chips. Proper pub food done well. Good desserts too. Very friendly staff and locals. Will come more often

Couldn’t end up eating due to several intolerances, however the man on the phone couldn’t have been more helpful and did offer to whip me up a curry (unfortunately, my fussiness did come out and I don’t like curry).

Fab pub - excellent beer and good atmosphere!

Rank food, avoid. EDITED... The batter was so dry and hard, the fish seemed very oily and the chips were more like undercooked slivers, all in all it wasnt eaten. Maybe just a bad batch..

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

Very disappointed with the vegetarian option which was a beetroot burger. Apart from a small burger and the bun with two onion rings, there was no relish or salad or mayonnaise. This was my second visit and no improvement in the vegetarian options .

The place itself is amazing but not a good start to our evening in the restaurant. Not all menus were given to look at. Our drinks took ages to come after ordering and we had to ask for them. Once we had ordered and dinner arrived we had to ask for Cutlery. Fillet steak was very bland no flavour and beef Wellington was very soggy pastry which let it down completely. Over all not an experience wanting to go back to when the bill was a lot of money. We told staff about how we felt and nothing was done. So will not be returning unfortunately.

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!

We celebrated my sisters 50th birthday here ! We had the private function room upstairs which has recently been refurbished and it was lovely. We were allowed in early to decorate with banners and balloons. Baring in mind we were a large group and all opted for three courses the food was still all served together so we had no one waiting, the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. We couldn't fault it all :) A few of the family stayed and were extremely happy with rooms and the yummy breakfast :)

Decided to go on a Monday eve as we had spent some time in Lavenham for a couple of days and were going home on the Tuesday. We were greeted by 2 very friendly people who asked where we would like to sit. Our drinks and popperdums were quickly served with 4 different chutneys and pickles, all of which were very tasty. For Mains we ordered Prawn Patia, Rices,Chicken Shashlak, Salad and Naan Breads. I can honestly say this meal especially the Patia was one of the best we have ever had. Some Curries in Restaurants are quite bland but these were delicious, with a depth of flavour. We were the only people in the restaurant but there were many people outside eating and enjoying the good weather. We would both recommend this place 100%

Wir war eine Gruppe von ungefähr 40 Leute. Wir haben nicht bekommt was uns angeboten wurde. Brot mit oil und butter auch Cesar Salat nicht bekommt. Ein Gast hat Hühnerschnitzel bestellt und eine Winzige stück Fleisch bekommt, nach wir geklagt haben hat sie dan eine anständige schnitzel bekommt. Essen hat geschmeckt aber war sehr wenig pro person.

A nice experience at the Crown. Lovely character to the place and the food was generally good. Three is us had the roast beef and one the roast pork. Service was generally good, although would have been good to have got the roast with the terrine, rather than halfway through. Would definitely go back though.

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.
