The best restaurants in Suffolk Coastal East of England

Brilliant little gem of a rustic themed tea room in the heart of the East Suffolk Coast area of outstanding natural beauty. Prices are reasonable and portions are generous. Coffee choices were great and I'd recommend to anyone in the area hiking or visiting to book in. Walk up is available and in the warmer months they have a small garden with seating. Dogs are welcome inside.

Visited to buy food for breakfast and lunch. The shop is tiny but is absolutely packed with delicious food. We came away with almond croissants, a loaf of sourdough bread, salami, a delicious courgette quiche, some superb local butter from Bungay and a round of Baron Bigod cheese. This was all consumed very quickly and we’re planning our next raid.

We were holidaying in the Suffolk area and looking for somewhere to go for an evening meal. We came across this pub which looked homely and inviting and had plenty of choice on the menu. The lady who served us was very friendly and we were treated well, despite not being locals. The décor and surroundings were lovely and the pub was very clean. I ordered the hunters chicken without the cheese, and the waitress very kindly asked if I would like something else instead. So I asked for some onion rings just expecting a couple, but they gave me a full portion of 5 which was very unexpected, but kind! My partner had the lasagne and garlic bread, he also asked for his without the salad and again they asked if he would like something else instead, so he asked for a few chips but kindly got a full portion. When the food arrived it was presented beautifully and was really hot. The chips tasted delicious. My partner was extremely impressed with his lasagne; so much so that he asked me to write a review for them, which I would have done anyway but he doesn't normally leave reviews. He said the flavours in the lasagne were amazing and that it was cooked to perfection, easily one of the best lasagnes he's ever had! We definitely hope to return here in the future, we live in Norfolk so its not too far to travel and would be well worth another visit!

Really cute cafe, with lovely staff and an array of tasty food to satisfy all tastebuds. We enjoyed a delicious vegan pancake and milkshake, as well as a healthy salad - cannot recommend enough!

Visited solo for breakfast and sat on the delightful terrace. Came in on the off chance as I haven’t been for a few years. Received a warm welcome and decided on the large breakfast. Delicious with quality sausages and bacon, two eggs and a lovely home made hash brown accompanied by sides of beans and mushrooms. Came with toast and an excellent coffee. In all a great start to a Saturday with friendly service and excellent food, what more do you want. And at a very reasonable price!

This is a really nice place to sit and have breakfast and is situated next to a great farm shop which has a lot of local produce

It's about time I left a fitting review for this amazing café that I am so fortunate to have only ten minutes' walk down the road. It's a rare genuine example of a community café, putting people before profit. Yes the menu is vegetarian and small, but the food is all so delicious you won't care. The vegan sausage rolls are particularly impressive, within the realms of "I can't believe it's not meat", for sure! Between the eclectic decor, the impeccable customer service and the regular community events it hosts, Cuppa deserves not only five stars but its reputation as the best café in Felixstowe.

If your looking for a real sandwich with good fillings then this is the shop for you. Having visited on many occasions I have never been disappointed. The staff are all friendly and more than willing to help you choose from the exhaustive menu. You will never be disappointed. Don’t look anywhere else. Victorian Beach Hut Penelope

This is by far our favorite restaurant, the atmosphere, the intimacy along with the pure simplicity is unmeasured. Once you add the knowledge of the wines coupled with David's amazing food just means you never want to leave, the fact that we live 14 miles away unfortunately means we have to tear ourselves away. Never change guys you're the best. Harri and Darren

The best toasty I have had in years. Cheese and ham good but the bread is homemade and crips up to take the toasty to another level. Thank you very much!

Started coming in when my baby girl was 2 weeks old (I need to get out of the house and as a first time mum the thought of going to a bigger establishment didn't appeal to me). My baby is now 11 weeks old. We've been going in once a week every week. Anna, her daughter and fellow staff members are so polite and attentive. It really is a pleasure to keep visiting this little perfect establishment. Prices are very very reasonable in this day and age and everything they offer is delicious and fresh! Really is a must visit place!

Had an INCREDIBLE Afternoon Tea at Cups and Cakes Cafe today. Everything was PERFECTION! The attention to detail and thought that has gone into each of the homemade delicious bakes and sandwiches were out of this world yummy. We had a delicious variety of sandwiches, sausage rolls, cheese scones with cream cheese and chutney, fruit scones with clotted cream and jam, strawberry fruit tarts, galaxy chocolate cupcakes, banoffee pies and of course, copious amounts of tea! Would thoroughly recommend Cups and Cakes for the personalized and friendly service too. I've experienced a lot of Afternoon Teas over the years and this was definitely the best! Thank you so much!!! 💜💜💜 🍰🎂🥪🧁☕🍴

Found this little gem by chance whilst looking for a place to have lunch. Located on the first floor with a welcoming feel. We had the simple tapas lunch which was excellent. It was fresh and tasty. Service was very good. Well worth a visit. Must try dinner next time ..

lovely sunday roast carvery, choise of for meats, plenty different vegetables. only gripe, Roast potatoes, a bit overcooked. the bar lady has plenty of kids here, so bring yours along to play. 3 choises of Real Ale too.

Lovely setting we got there at 12pm and they had already run of the dish we wanted to order. Very reasonable price not sure I would go back.
