The best restaurants in Fressingfield Mid Suffolk East of England

Went there Christmas Eve with friends, 10 of us, including one in a wheelchair. Landlady watched us come thru the door, struggling with wheelchair in the process, and once we got in there bluntly told us there were no tables vacant and we couldn’t stand anywhere either. We asked how about out the back and were rudely told “no, it’s laid up for tomorrow”. So we had to turn round and leave without getting g served. Her attitude was appalling and extremely rude - there certainly would have been a more polite way of turning us away. Will never go there again till it’s sold to new owners. Luckily we have another extremely friendly and welcoming pub in the village so Christmas Eve was still great for us.

Sunday lunch here today was quite superb: amazing food, smiley, knowledgeable service, relaxed atmosphere, and a beautiful setting. We enjoyed rillettes of confit duck and cauliflower/blue cheese panda cotta, then hake fillet with sweet potato and lemon purée; fillets of sea bream with carrot and ginger purée; desserts were pear and d hazelnut cake; mango cheesecake with orange and cookie dough sorbet. All faultless. We will definitely return.

Visited every evening as the wife and I were staying in a close by cottage . Very friendly staff & locals , felt very welcome . Curry & Quiz night was great also , Hope to visit again one day

Fantastic food, love all the little extra touches and the staff were excellent. However, I felt we were left a long time without our drinks order being taken and drinks arriving. We’d read the whole menu several times and discussed it at length whilst supping on water, personally I like to sup on a glass of wine whilst deciding on what to eat and my husband would have liked to have had time to drink more than a few mouthfuls of his pint before his food arrived.

We visited this afternoon on a long bike ride and found the Jungle room a fabulous place to stop and refresh ourselves. We both had the grilled cheese sourdough sandwich, which was extremely tasty. I also had a very,very good cup of coffee to accompany it. The final bill was a snip given the superb quality of the food and service. The nice touch at the end was our server offering to fill up our water bottles. Great stuff

We always have a fantastic meal here . Highly recommend
