The best restaurants in Babergh East of England

Ordered takeaway for delivery at 5.05pm, told delivery will be within 1 hour. At 6.45 I call and am told it will be about 10-15 mins as doing another delivery first. I advise that will be two hours almost when you said within an hour and the guy reacted as if I was out of order for complaining. He wasn’t bothered. Never take customers for granted or you will lose them and this will be the last time I use them. Have been told the new Indian is much better by neighbours so that is where I shall go.

Lovely staff; cannot fault any of them at all. I hope they are all decently paid because they thoroughly deserve it. The food was really very good, beautifully cooked and nice-sized portions. I would highly recommend this restaurant. Our friends stayed at the hotel and were happy enough with it.

Not good with allergens at all! Specifically asked for no egg in the mixed veg rice - we received egg. Ordered a dish which did not have a nut allergen symbol next to it, therefore deeming it safe to eat, yet it arrived with cashews in it. All in all, won't be ordering from here again.

Love this place a local secret always pleasant here. Good selection of ale and wines.

Really good pizza place, pizza was so lovely and very nicely made. All Fresh ingredients, service was amazing. I then had a delivery a week later because the pizza was so nice. Service was lovely really nice man delivered it. Not usually pizza fan but this is a nice fresh pizza.

Can't comment on food as when we arrived cafe shut!! Apparently closed on Wednesdays and Thursdays!!!! Went back to Willow Trees Farm and had delicious meal.

Excellent food the figs and burrata were perfect, gish kebab beautifully cooked wonderfully delicious dessert .Friendly knowledgeable staff will definitely vist again Martin West

Great coffee but I’ve never experienced such slow service. Co-op staff members clearly get priority when it comes to service and extraordinarily long chats with the cafe staff slow it right down

Chips n Chopstix is hands down the best fish and chips takeaway in town. The fish is always fresh and moist, with a crispy coating that's not overly greasy. The chips are thick, fluffy, and perfectly salted. The portion sizes are generous, and the prices are affordable. The staff is friendly and the service is efficient. Whenever I have a craving for fish and chips, Chips n Chopstix is my top choice.

Once again on a wet November morning two of us bikers received a warm welcome at Wally’s Shed Cafe. Mugs of hot coffee and a filling breakfast. It certainly hit the spot!

Pushed for time so wanted to pick up sausage and chips on way home at 5.pm. Know they take ages for fish but at that time would have thought they would have chips ready! As it was the "chef" took my money, wandered about for a bit and then tipped about a third of a bucket of chips into the fryer. I was then told there was a 10 minute wait for chips but that the sausage was ready cooked. Bet it was! From lunchtime probably. What chip shop doesn't expect to sell a bucket worth of chips in the evening? All this class for a MERE £8. For sausage and chips! Do not waste your money here as they clearly can't afford to run it properly any more even though it is a cash only establishment. I'm never comfortable with those. AVOID AVOID AVOID.

We went at a very quiet time on a Sunday so had the reduced menu. We were quick to make our order however they were very slow with food and drinks. The waitress was unsure of the menu and what the meals consisted of, when she asked a colleague, they were rude and dismissive. When we were waiting, we were asked what we were waiting for? Understand being forgotten about on a busy night but it was just us and one other table. The coke was flat, the spoon was dirty. The haddock and mash was OK but didn’t make up for the slow and rude service. Overpriced. One waitress recommended to another customer to use Just Eat and we wish we did too.

popped in on Christmas Eve after enjoying the carols in the precinct which was a vibrant affair, had a pint in the village bar, vibrant and full of life and Christmas joy. then made the mistake of visiting the White Horse. The landlord was very drunk and surly to me. the regulars were, as always crowded at the bar near the entrance which always make anyone intimidated when coming in to the public bar, Mark made it clear I was not his friend, he didn't like me and told me it was my fault the pub was closing down on Christmas day as I and other villagers didn't use the pub enough. oh, the pub is open today, but will i go in... probably!

Just visited to install a new card machine for the new owners. The place is a real bakery and smells great. A massive selection of cakes, pastries and bread. The new owners informed me that there will be some refurb going on soon but I will be back. Great friendly staff.

Food was nice, setting was nice. Waitress couldn’t crack a smile taking the order and basically plonked our drinks on the table. However the younger lady on the till was very friendly, polite and nice when we bought some cakes to take out.
