The best restaurants in Melton and Ufford Suffolk Coastal East of England

This was our first visit to The Ufford Crown. We had a fabulous midweek lunch. The food was great. Huge chicken caesar salad, pork belly and mash with divine crackling, Nduja linguine. Excellent service. Friendly staff. We will be back.

Lovely meal tonight at Shapla. Terrific Madras curry with lots of king prawns and lovely stag pander done in a way we've never had it done before - strands of cheese rather than cubes - but delicious. Fast friendly service.

Best meal I've had in Suffolk, by a long way! The waiters, waitresses and chefs all do such a good job, the food is high quality and really well cooked. A brilliant pub! A small room for improvement would be to have allergies on the menus if possible, but the staff were really on it and answered any questions immediately so had no impact on my meal. Thank you Greyhound Inn, a very special pub!

Constantly surprised at how bad it is. Bar staff 'I been here a week and not shown how to make tea''. Tables not cleared and filthy. Staff disillusioned (and leaving) , members disillusioned (and leaving) The owners should have stuck to running care homes. Back on the market within 5 years ?

Very weird experience. Mature lady in charge who seemed to rant at staff (young,student people just doing their job). Having worked in hospitality I found this quite disturbing! Nachos not great either.

Beautiful establishment, wonderful staff, and above all, quite simply stunning quality food. Entirely exceeded expectations in every aspect of our visit. Already booked our next reservation, and despite being a 50 minute car journey away, we will be using every excuse to return again and again.

Came here for sunday lunch with friends visiting the area. Excellent food with great service - very friendly and helpful. This is a very busy pub and they are well-organised to handle the large amount of customers. We really enjoyed our afternoon and would like to return. Highly recommended.

Great friendly gastropub in a beatiful village. We really enjoyed our stay here - there are two shepherds huts in the garden so we were able to enjoy afternoon drinks in the lovely garden followed by dinner, more drinks and then bed! Andy and the team made us feel very welcome, including our dogs. The huts are very comfortable and well equipped. Good value all round. We will be back :)

Poor. We arrived at the start of the day with few other customers. I had the full English which looked picture perfect. However, it was largely cold, especially the beans which I didn't eat. The sourdough toast was so thin it tastes and looked like a flatter Ryvita wafer. I would not recommend this as a destination for breakfast and won't be returning.
