The best restaurants in Ringshall Mid Suffolk East of England

Lovely little pub with an extensive and well laid out menu. Choice was made a little hard by all the tasty sounding options. Staff were pleasant and very friendly service was quick but not rushed. Good choice of drinks There was a little farm shop inside....a return visit necessary to have a look around. Food was delicious and good portion size. Would definitely recommend.

We’ve visited The Punch Bowl many times, as it’s just 10 minutes away from us, and it’s always been a nice pub in the past. Unfortunately, something has changed, and it’s not for the better. Upon arrival, we were met with stares from the locals, almost as if we were being judged on whether we were ‘worthy’ of being there. Despite having made a reservation, we were seated at a cramped table in the corner, right by the serving door, which was kicked open into my chair. The table had originally been set for three, but it was hard to see how it would’ve worked comfortably for any diner being so close to the door. There were other tables available, including one with just young children at it, so it felt unnecessary to place us where we were. The food was okay, but it no longer felt like good value for the price. Additionally, we were charged for a drink we didn’t order, though it was promptly removed when we pointed it out. All in all, this community pub no longer lives up to what it once was.

I had a Beautiful Birthday Cake created by the the very talented Helena. Made to my designe over the phone it was perfect and very tasty. Exceeded my expectations.
