The best restaurants in Waveney East of England

Friendly service here and food cooked in the woks in front of you. Very fast and very tasty. The squid rings were delicious as was the curry. World wholly recommend.

I came in for tea and chat with my friends. Very welcoming, it was like we were part of the family. Lovely atmosphere, the sausage rolls were the best that I have ever had and the traditional no fuss cakes were amazing. We will be back for sure.

Absolute gem of a restaurant. It's quite small (I counted seating for 26) so I would recommend booking. The owner and staff have created a warm, very friendly atmosphere and we were made to feel very welcome. The menu caters extremely well for the majority of diets and everything is freshly cooked. The owner is very helpful and is happy for you to pre-order your choice of meals in advance. This means you don't run the risk of something not being available , which is always a possibility when it's fresh ingredients and cooked to order. We had pizza, tiger prawns and jerk pork burger, all of which were fabulous and the tiramisu dessert is amazing. The level of service was perfect, not rushed, attentive, extremely polite and friendly. Thank you for a lovely evening, Desmond's has just become our first choice restaurant in Lowestoft.

A great community hub. A full on all-inclusion cafe with pottery and all sorts of crafts. BSL cafe too on a Friday morning and certain days a cat therapy time. Ran by a very generous lady and her volunteers. Also a freebie corner or foods is there on certain days. Great coffee and pancakes.

Excellent food, cooked to order with friendly and helpful staff. Central and clean. Highly recommend this little gem🤗

I and my friend visited this restaurant after India vs Sri Lanka match the unique place and the unique quality of food at reasonable price which get awesome experience first time I see the world cup match in England

A great traditional pub with lots of history. friendly staff. Very welcoming. Also dog friendly. We had a great time with family here on a camping weekend. Will be going back.

I have been a regular visitor of Slice since in opened last Jan. Their cakes, cookies and brownies are to die for! I asked them to create a cupcake & brownie tower for my wedding in August 2023 and it was absolutely perfect. Everyone loved it! As an avid coffee drinker, I was then over the moon when they opened their second unit on the seafront serving the most delicious caramel lattes! I love to treat myself to their sausage rolls also. The ladies at Slice always make my day, they’re truly wonderful. I couldn’t recommend visiting Slice enough. 10/10!

Lovely spot to stop for tea, coffee or lunch. Located by the sea from, just up from the pier. The staff are lovely. We only stopped by for a cuppa, but the food looked very nice. Parking is right out front.

Lovely little coffee house perfect seating areas inside and outside , great staff lovely friendly service

Food good,, a little slow service,. Could be more space , but cosy

Just had takeaway , extremely disappointed. Iskender was very dry, shredded chicken . Barbecue onion ordered as extra portion , had no spice no molasses , were fridge cold and basically raw . The response to the complaint not the greatest , normally brilliant today poor

I ordered the buffalo chicken pizza. Wow ! Perfectly cooked, lovely bubbled pockets in the dough and all toppings perfect. I ordered via a delivery service and it arrived hot. The garlic & herb dip is thick & tasty & totally unlike chain pizza sides .. it’s really great. I will order direct from now from the business as now I know that is an option . Perfect tasty pizza and will return *****

I attended bottomless brunch on Saturday, at 1:30pm, I understand it’s 90mins of unlimited food and drinks (from the set menu) perfect! We got settled in, we ordered a round of Prosecco spritz cocktails, and 2 cokes. They came swiftly, alongside our starter courses. There was only 1 other table in the restaurant which consisted of around 8 people. So it wasn’t busy. We were tucking into our starters. The way the man (I assumed it was the owner, darker haired man) spoke to the young waitress in front of us was awful. He openly told her to “go over and stand around and smile and start clearing the plates” so they’d “hurry up and finish”. So I wondered if he was going to do the same to us. Anyways the food came out and was lovely, only down side was one of us didn’t like goats cheese pizza so declined, he then didn’t offer her any more of the pizzas after that that were brought round, so she only enjoyed one slice. The pizzas were cut into 8 pieces but instead of leaving them on the table for us to pick what we want we were given one slice each n the rest was taken away.. before we had finished the last piece of pizza he came over to collect our plates, one of us hadn’t even finished and he was stood next to her waiting for her to finish cutting her pizza and put it in her mouth so he could clear her plate. At this point we were on our 3rd round of Prosecco spritz and we were told we would have to drink up as they had no more wine glasses to make fresh ones in, which I don’t mind drinking out of the same glass but they were all collected at the same time and I don’t think it was noted who’s glass was whos! It was 2:50 and the man came over and cleared the plates as I said, said quite aggressively “what desserts we ordering”. Desserts were ordered, and brought over at 2:55 along with our last drinks. He hovered around us, making me feel very uneasy. It got to just past 3 pm and we were chatting away, and eating our desserts which too were lovely. To then be approached by the man and was told “look it’s past 3pm and we close at 3 technically, and I want to go home so can we hurry it up” My reply was “well we are nearly done” So one of us asked for the bill, whilst we were still eating. They brought it over we paid what we owed. Leaving a tip for the young lady waitressing. As I myself felt very sorry For. I get that it is for 90 minutes but I feel we were very rushed, we didn’t order anything at 3, but he wanted to be out of there dead on 3, so why allow people to book at 1:30?? I won’t be returning unfortunately, which is a real shame as I felt the food was lovely and the service from the waitress was top notch, but this man made the rest of the experience awful.
