The best restaurants in Suffolk Coastal East of England

The Bakery, Felixstowe - what a terrific find. I bought an egg and cress roll, fruit scone and fruit juice - all for £8. The service was excellent, unhurried and friendly. The selection of breads, rolls, pastries and cheese was amazing and smelt delicious. The egg & cress roll was the best I've ever tasted. A delicious artisan seeded roll, probably 2 sliced eggs with the most amazing orange yolk, tomatoes and cress with a mustard dressing that was to die for. The scone was gorgeous and was packed with sultanas and currants. Absolutely fantastic. A shame I was in Felixstowe for a day trip otherwise I'd be in The Bakery every day!

What a find at the top of Hamilton road , we had struggled to find a Dog Friendly Family eatery in the town centre on a very cold January day. The food was freshly cooked, quality ingredients, Friendly Staff , and excellent pricing, and generous portions to, a a clean environment . for what is does, it does very well indeed. 5* . if in Felixstowe again we will certainly visit again. WE had everything from a large belly busting brunch to a tuna Jacket Potato all served piping hot and well cooked .

This has to be one of the best Fish and Chip shops in the area. Coming from the midlands where fish and chips can be part of a stable diet, I have always been disappointed in Suffolk with the quality and especially the quantity of the serving from many chips shops here. However this chip shop gives me both a tasty meal and deliveres a good portion. The young lady behind the counter is brilliant at holding a busy restrurant together, always polite to the staff and instructions are clear with a thank you. The meal it's self is not greasy, nicely cooked and presented.

Mama bears knows what they’re doing. Delightful cakes, freshly hand made and delicious. Worth the money. Started using mama bears in lock down when she delivered cake / treat boxes on Fridays and delighted when she opened up a shop. Know various people that have used her services for occasion cakes too all spectacular. Recently saw on their insta they’d received some poor reviews and I don’t know why!!! Think people expect chemically flavoured over sweetened junk. This isn’t what you get here, real flavours cooked with love and passion. Recommend and hope the negative reviewers give their heads a little wobble.

A very peaceful and well kept site with good facilities. A great place from which to explore the area, which itself is quite beautiful.

I visited Chestnut and Rose for breakfast with my son last week. I ordered the creamy garlic mushrooms on sourdough, and it was an absolute delight. The mushrooms were cooked to perfection, with a rich and flavorful garlic cream sauce and the sourdough was fab. Amazing portion size and great value for money. It's clear that the staff take pride in their food, drinks and service. My coffee had a love heart on top 😍 All the cakes on the counter looked delicious, we were too full from breakfast to sample any this time but will definitely be back to try.

Came here for a few drinks with friends. Lovely crowd of people, all friendly. Good selection of drinks. Staff very helpful. Enough pool tables for all to enjoy. Well worth the £10 membership!

Coffee was OK but brownie was disappointing

Unfortunately my partners fish was under done, the batter was Very disappointing . We complained about it and over heard the manager say to the waitress not to charge for the fish meal. BUT we still got charge for it. Definitely do not recommend the fish and chips. Sorry to write this as my sisters and my roast was lovely.

Under staffed… limited dishes on the menu as they had ran out of so may dishes at only 6.30pm.. meal was over priced for not great quality ingredients. Over cooked food.. the chicken burger was burnt.. also the table next to us had the same problem. The restaurant itself was run down.. sea view was limited.. the windows weren’t even clean. Waitress was super friendly.. kept apologising.. but like we said this wasn’t her fault. Wouldn’t reccomend to anyone or come back.. very disappointing visit

What a great old English pub, It looks like this used to be a Pubmaster pub, but is now a free house, which explains the number and variety of real ales for sale. I only went in the daytime and there was a real fire burning . It looks like this pub at night has music on, which must be a cosy environment for the locals. When I visit Woodbridge again I must return here.

The food is fine. Nothing special - very bland. Not worth the money. The atmosphere is horrible. The owner created a very hostile environment.

Very nice pub in framlingham for the beer festival weekend. Our daughter sang there as part the lineup. 😊

Cute village cafe with inside/outside seating, plus sandwiches, toasties, breakfast dishes and nice-looking bakes I wished I'd had room to try. Nice people, and nice hot coffee too 🔥🙂☕👍

Wonderful experience from start to finish. Thank you very much to the staff who worked so hard and who helped with dairy and gluten free choices - So much on the menu can be adapted and nothing felt like too much trouble. The food was lovely and the service relaxed and unobtrusive. Will definitely return.
