Came across this lovely, friendly tearoom/cafe which is located in the pretty village of Boxford and was so impressed, I visited twice in four days. My first visit was for tea and homemade cake and the second for breakfast when I had smoked salmon and scrambled egg on toast which was the best I’ve ever had. I noticed that they have a lot of local trade and seemed to be a popular meeting place for locals which is always a good sign. The lady who runs/owns the business is very friendly and extremely efficient, I will certainly be going back next time I am in the area.

I wanted to introduce my daughter in law's parents to Chloe's. They have just moved to Ipswich but came to see me today in Brantham. We just wanted a quick lunch after a chilly shopping morning. Us 2 ladies had a lovely home made fish pie, there were plenty of prawns and a lot of other fish in a very tasty sauce. It was served with roasted diced potatoes, a nicely browned potatoes on top and fresh vegetables. The individual dish with a nicely browned mash potatoes on top. It was served in a very hot individual oval dish, which was presented piping hot which always pleases me. Our vegetarian friend had a tuna and sweet corn panini, salad chips and home made coleslaw. I enjoyed a fruit smoothie, and the others had peppermint tea. From Ronnie

I have tried a lot of Chinese takeaways & this has to be one of the best. Very flavoursome & tasty. Fantastic food, everything we had ordered was just gorgeous

We arranged to meet our Mother in Law for a meal for Mothering Sunday here last night. The place was welcoming from the get-go with friendly servers. My Father in law doesn't eat meat and isn't much of a fish lover either, so although the steak options suited 3 of the party, we were looking at a limited option for him. However, we asked Katie Partridge, the owner, if there were any other options, and she suggested a Thai banana flower dish. 🌼 Well, we all had a fine eating experience, Katie even bought out a Thai sauce for the 3 steak dishes, which was first class. We all had a really great time , the place was super friendly and extremely accommodating for our dietary likes. I can't remember having such a warm welcome from a pub as we did last night. Nothing appeared too much trouble and the food was delicious. Thank you 😊

This place could be so good, but the problem is they are so hit and miss. Sometimes you get a sandwich and it’s really good, full of filling and lovely and fresh, other times it’s not good at all, which when you’re paying best part of £5 for a sandwich, isn’t good enough, and you’d be better getting a packet sandwich from the local supermarket. Also, sometimes they really make you feel like you’re inconveniencing them by asking for a sandwich, or they haven’t got enough bread in stock, which surely defeats the object of a deli that does sandwiches?

If you’re after a classic country pub with no frills, just timeless charm and great food, The Wheatsheaf is the place to go. This old-fashioned gem is full of character, with its rustic interiors, warm ambiance, and a proper traditional pub vibe. The menu stays true to its roots, offering comforting, classic dishes without the need for modern twists. I tried the fish and chips, and it was everything you’d hope for—crispy, golden batter encasing tender, flaky fish, served with perfectly cooked chips. It’s hearty, satisfying, and exactly what a pub meal should be. Dog lovers will especially appreciate The Wheatsheaf, as it’s wonderfully dog-friendly. After a countryside stroll, it’s the perfect spot to unwind, with water bowls and even treats available for your four-legged companions. The staff were friendly, attentive, and clearly take pride in maintaining the warm, inviting feel of the pub. Whether you’re looking for a classic meal, a pint in a cozy setting, or somewhere to bring your dog, The Wheatsheaf is a true treasure.

Great village pub, lovely atmosphere and friendly staff.
