The best restaurants in Babergh East of England

Fantastic overnight stay.. the Buckingham suite ticked all the boxes. Lauren and Rowland made me feel very much at home.. the bar has a great atmosphere which matched my fish and chips.. glorious locally made ice cream .. definitely recommend a visit.

There was a blonde hair in my food :(. The birria itself was quite bland and tasteless and the salsa tasted like vinegar. It lacked flavour overall won’t be going again

Near faultless Sunday Roast with best Yorkshire and cauliflower cheese ever! High quality ingredients professionally prepared and delivered with attentive service in a lovely setting. Good portion size and overall great value too. Lovely experience we will be going again!

Fabulous food and absolutely lovely friendly staff, you need to prebook in advance for Sunday lunch as its the best around and books up very quick.

We went into Costa coffee today Friday 13th sept…..no that’s no not applicable in this case , the staff were really friendly and each of the three young ladies who served me entered into a little chat. How nice that was….thank you.

Stopped for a coffee this time. Perfect

Nice pub, with lovely staff and friendly clientele, no longer serves food, but good selection of beer at reasonable prices and no TVs to ruin a peaceful drink.

Great staff, brilliant atmosphere, love it xx

Beautiful, cozy, country pub serving gorgeous home cooked food. Friendly, cheerful staff serving our lunch with pleasent conversation. Thank you to the owner who went above and beyond to provide us with an additional tastey takeaway ploughman's supper.

Amazing place to work at, food is some of the greatest Indian I've ever tried!! Highly recommend:) -izabell (I work here)

French onion soup for starters was good. Main course was roast chicken Sunday lunch which was barely average. Chicken needed longer. Parsnips were grossly undercooked and hard. Beef gravy with chicken served! Roast potatoes were cheap frozen packet ones. Grossly over priced. The dessert of sticky toffee pudding was nice. Service quick. Pub interior nice. The staff were nice. Bill was horrendously expensive. A one off visit!

This establishment is currently CLOSED. No sign yet of new owners: nothing but rumours! Hopefully a new venture can bring it back to what it was 20 years ago.

Had a delicious sunday lunch at the Black Lion! Highlights were the roast potatoes, the attentive service from the lovely Chloe, and the delicious vegan-friendly sticky toffee pudding! :)

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.

Our Sunday lunch was wonderful and the service was exemplary. The staff were very friendly and helpful and priced competitively.
