The best restaurants in Southwold and Reydon Waveney East of England

Had tea and cake here didn't wait long and they let our little dog in to do it is very dog and family friendly will return soon thank you

Came here a few times when on holiday. Had croissants, sausage rolls, sourdough bread, baguettes and cinnamon swirls. All amazing! Always a queue but worth the wait

Great value, location and quality cafe. Right on the beach with an outdoor seating area and friendly staff. They even offer puppachino drinks for dogs!

Simply the best beach cafe with an amazing view of the sea and beach. Excellent at lunch as well as afternoon tea. One word of warning, look out for pesky seagulls.

Wonderful lunch Attentive service Knowledgeable staff and incredible food. Will definitely check recommend and return on our next visit to southwold.

Wow just like to say a big thank you to you all very friendly food is amazing I come once a week from Lowestoft very grateful for your kindnesses

The staff here were really friendly. We went in for some ice cream and we got substantial portion sizes which was appreciated. I had a salted caramel. It was alright but certainly not the best salted caramel ice cream i’ve had as it wasn’t that flavoursome. But the other flavours looked really nice and might be better than the caramel so I’d say defo worth a visit

Excellent venue. Driven past many times but so pleased we stopped this time. Staff were very friendly even though busy. Good choice of drinks and cakes. (Though limited on the vegan option) Dog friendly plus baby change. Would have gone for a walk but Storm Bert put a stop to that! Will visit again. Recommended.

Excellent breakfast before a round ar next door Southwold Golf Club . All day breakfast very well priced at £8 and it set us up nicely for a battle against the wind.

Decent drinks but no gluten free options when looking for a cake. Giving one loyalty stamp when buying 4 drinks does not generate any loyalty. I suspect we won't be back as there are plenty of other options in Southwold - in fact after we left here we walked around Southwold and then ended up at Jakery Bakery where we all had drinks and they had numerous Gluten Free options

We would have liked to have had lunch here but they were, unsurprisingly, full. But, still a godsend of a find for me as I am gluten intolerant. It was SOOOO good to get a gf, vegan sausage roll as I never see such things anywhere. I wish that more bakeries like this would open up everywhere, and maybe they will. Thanks so much!

Ordered two Thai curries (red chicken & green prawn ) excellent. On the hot side but tasty. Came with good rice and naan and poppadoms.

We use this takeaway all the time. Tonight as usual was brilliant.

Great place with parking not far away. Very good food and friendly staff.

We booked in for Afternoon Tea at 3.45pm on a Saturday afternoon to celebrate a 75th Birthday. The room was fairly quiet (maybe 4 other tables occupied). Our hot drinks arrived quickly, but that was followed by a 30 minute wait for the savoury course. Interestingly a couple of residents arrived (after us) and were served promptly with the waitress explaining the different selections. Eventually ours arrived with no explanations at all, making us feel rather like second-class citizens. The savouries were nice but we then didn’t get our sweet courses until 5.30pm. I had to chase them up on several occasions and trying to get more hot drinks was nearly impossible. By this time it was only our table of 4 and the 2 residents in the restaurant, so there was no excuse for the lack of service. This totally spoiled the day for us and it certainly was not what I was expecting from such a prestigious Adnams venue. The waiter did apologise and said he hoped I would come back, to which I replied that I wouldn’t. So dissapointed.
