The best restaurants in Mid Suffolk East of England

Enjoyed a lovely evening great atmosphere great service and excellent quality of food and drink. Service was professional and very attentive and nothing too much trouble for the staff. Would highly recommend.

Me and my wife had a great evening in this authentic old pub. Everybody was very welcoming and the food was excellent. Well cooked, well presented and very tasty. Service was friendly. Please support this pub to keep it going. Too many are closing.

What a fiasco. You couldn't make it up, talk about Fawlty Towers. I stayed in room 6 this year, after specifically requesting not to stay in room 2 with it's enormous bright green Fire Exit sign on all night. The nice young lady had some trouble letting me into room 6, the one right at the end of the block, but eventually we got in. Straight away I noticed that the original lock had been replaced and a bodge job had been done. As it was warm I left the door open for a bit. When I wanted a shower, I tried to lock the door from the inside, this proved impossible. So I went to the bar and explained and the nice young lady came back and said that her Dad would be along soon and he would have a look at it. Which he did. I returned the next evening at around 5.30, the pub garden was full, with drinkers seated around 6ft from my "front door". I couldn't get in. Again. I spent an embarrassing 5-10 mins trying, viewed by all of the drinkers outside. Eventually a nice chap offered to come and help. He too tried for ages and said the lock was utterly broken. He didn't quite use those words though. :-) Then someone came out from the bar at my request and she literally had to kick the door in to gain access. All of this took place in front of the whole beer garden. On Sunday morning I tried to leave the room, I was unable to. I was locked in. As chance would have it the landlady rang me, to ask what time I wanted breakfast, on telling her of my plight she tried to gain access from outside and failed. Then another lady turned up and she climbed in through the window. Eventually, between them they got the lock open. This took some time. I wonder what would have happened if there had been a fire during the night? Perhaps I should also add that the duvet was torn, the wheel on the bed was broken, so you were sleeping at an odd angle. There was a dried blood stain on the duvet and a rip on the mattress cover. The sofa was very worn. There was black mould on the inside window and on the bath. The toilet seat had been screwed on wonky. I eventually located a wifi charger point, hidden behind the bedside table, but it didn't work. I requested a discount, given the ridiculous situation with the lock and was offered £50 off a three night stay. Given the amount that is being charged, that was derogatory. She eventually gave me £100 off . with no apology.

We needed somewhere to wait whilst our daughter took a vet exam.. we were kindly allowed into the garden to wait prior to opening we purchased drinks upon opening. Adjacent to train station . Nice beer garden serves good Thi food.

I stayed here for two nights this week and found it to be excellent. I stayed in one of there spacious lodges and nice shower room and the breakfast and evening meals I had was excellent the service was good as well.

Nice pub called in for refreshing drink Nice welcome from a man called James Good selection of beers Well done and very clean

Staying in Elmswell for a few nights and went to this Chinese. Really enjoyed the food. I’m vegan and so always cause maximum levels of awkwardness everywhere I go! The staff were really accommodating - taking the time to go through all the possible dishes I could have. Throughly recommend and would go again for sure.

What a lovely friendly family oriented Pub & Dinner so clean and inviting. We had the smoked brisket and it was to die for. We will be going again, probably next week with daughter’s, grandchildren and Storm the spaniel. I am happy to recommend this eatery. Excellent all round. Bob Bruce

We booked a table for 1pm on Saturday. We were greeted on arrival and shown to a table by the window with a glorious view towards the River Orwell and the bridge. There was a slight pause before our drinks order was taken. We chose as our mains - Double Smash burger and Korean BBQ Rib of Beef. The kitchen was obviously busy, but our food came reasonably quickly - it was nicely presented and we enjoyed it. Desserts followed - Choc Pop Pannacotta and Pistachio Blackberry tart - all nicely served. Both mains and dessert menus have some interesting dishes - not just the “run of the mill” food choices. An enjoyable meal in pleasant surroundings.

Really great food and the chap that I assume is the owner is so personable, however the girl is very rude and untrained in any customer skills, she clearly would rather be anywhere else but working there, It’s such a shame as this has made us reluctant to go in there. She really upset my daughter in law with her critical look and smirk, thankfully she then returned to her phone screen.

We were party of 24 for an evening meal - The meals & service by Taff Luke & Jack were excellent. All the starters came up together which is amazing for such a large party & the same for the meal - Such a variety of food to suit all tastes - We will be rebooking our family meal out at the The Bramford Cock .

Cheapest curry I’ve had in a long time. Granted u pay next to noting but cold rice that’s tastes plastic. No chicken in the tikka and nan bread wasn’t worth the pennies you’d pay for. Probably would return in a hurry

Ordered a drink and the barista made a face turned to her colleague, who rolled their eyes and also pulled a face. When asked what the issue was, they both ignored us. This made our visit very uncomfortable and won't be visiting this cafe again.

Great pub, great atmosphere, local treasure, no cooked food, very well kept beers, free house, owner managed, real fire, traditional village pub.

Wish I could give zero stars - dirty dirty dirty - avoid avoid avoid
