The best restaurants serving British food in East of England

Had a family birthday meal here and the food was wonderful and so were the staff. Beautiful restaurant and would definitely recommend.

Good for Sunday lunch. The food was good and the service by Lucy was excellent as usual. Very good Sunday roast and nice selection of desserts.

Worst Nando’s I have ever eaten ate! The restaurant & toilets were dirty, the silverware was dirty, the chicken came out half warm and we ordered a couple of sweet potato wedges that were half cooked.

Just returned from a 2 night stay and this place just gets better, fabulous food, drink and lovely staff that went the extra mile (changed the rocket leaf for another sort for my jerk chicken salad) Lovely hearing the tawny owls hooting and such nice walks with views that are breathtaking. We will definitely be returning next year again!

This could be a gem of a pub. Fantastic location & looks great from the outside. The beer was ok but not great. The red wine was awful. The toilets are so tired & by the looks of the dust in the corners of the cubicles, haven’t been properly cleaned for a while. Overall disappointing & there are much nicer pubs nearby.

OK TV bar, friendly staff, food not great. I had prawn salad, a decent portion of prawns, but salad from a bag that still had all the brown ends on. Mayo was so empty none could be got out, I got up and asked for another, which was also pretty much empty, I got up again and finally got a new bottle.

Always a great visit when here with a good valiety of beers, lagers, wheat beers etc on sale. Lovely friendly staff always willing to help, well done Gals and Guys.

We've been here several times, each time it is better. The owner is friendly and helpful and clearly he trains his staff well. They work hard as it is a busy food pub but are always cheerful and on hand to help out with requests. The food is also great with several healthy and some less healthy options if needed! Keep it up you're doing a great job

Very disappointed with the sandwiches, bread was very dry and the smoked salmon bagel was frozen! BLT contains cold bacon rashers. All in all - an expensive, disappointing lunch. Will not frequent the cafe again .

My relative stayed in Room 37 for 2 nights on 23/8/2024. The room is not properly prepared. There was no shower gel, no shampoo. The shower cubicle's drain was totally blocked. It's impossible to have a shower. They have to go the nearby relative's room to have a shower! They told me till they checked out! Please make sure the room is well prepared and ready for the guest for future. Thank you.

Well this is the worst weather spoons I've been it the staff looked like something from Halloween manager so rude we left

Been here a few times and it is a very nice setting - though a bit hit and miss in terms of how busy it is, so perhaps have a backup plan in mind if you are unlucky and it is one of their busy times. A good selection of fresh cakes and hot food. Coffee is generous in quantity but I would echo some of the other reviewers in suggesting it could be stronger - however I accept this is a matter of personal taste so perhaps more a comment about me than this venue :) Staff are very diligent, efficient, pleasant and polite. As a footnote: I don't know whether the cafe is responsible for the toilets - apologies to them if they are not - but the facilites have been woeful on our last two visits. Their condition is the fault of those using them but whoever is responsible for them needs to evaluate their use and adjust their cleaning schedules to accomodate!!!!!!! My review score is for the cafe (minus the toilets).

Enjoyed a great lunch and drinks with friends. The staff were very welcoming, attentive and friendly. Nothing was too much trouble. We will definitely be back again!

What a fiasco. You couldn't make it up, talk about Fawlty Towers. I stayed in room 6 this year, after specifically requesting not to stay in room 2 with it's enormous bright green Fire Exit sign on all night. The nice young lady had some trouble letting me into room 6, the one right at the end of the block, but eventually we got in. Straight away I noticed that the original lock had been replaced and a bodge job had been done. As it was warm I left the door open for a bit. When I wanted a shower, I tried to lock the door from the inside, this proved impossible. So I went to the bar and explained and the nice young lady came back and said that her Dad would be along soon and he would have a look at it. Which he did. I returned the next evening at around 5.30, the pub garden was full, with drinkers seated around 6ft from my "front door". I couldn't get in. Again. I spent an embarrassing 5-10 mins trying, viewed by all of the drinkers outside. Eventually a nice chap offered to come and help. He too tried for ages and said the lock was utterly broken. He didn't quite use those words though. :-) Then someone came out from the bar at my request and she literally had to kick the door in to gain access. All of this took place in front of the whole beer garden. On Sunday morning I tried to leave the room, I was unable to. I was locked in. As chance would have it the landlady rang me, to ask what time I wanted breakfast, on telling her of my plight she tried to gain access from outside and failed. Then another lady turned up and she climbed in through the window. Eventually, between them they got the lock open. This took some time. I wonder what would have happened if there had been a fire during the night? Perhaps I should also add that the duvet was torn, the wheel on the bed was broken, so you were sleeping at an odd angle. There was a dried blood stain on the duvet and a rip on the mattress cover. The sofa was very worn. There was black mould on the inside window and on the bath. The toilet seat had been screwed on wonky. I eventually located a wifi charger point, hidden behind the bedside table, but it didn't work. I requested a discount, given the ridiculous situation with the lock and was offered £50 off a three night stay. Given the amount that is being charged, that was derogatory. She eventually gave me £100 off . with no apology.

We stayed here and it was lovely - Thanks to Cathy and her husband (and staff) for making us feel very welcome. The food was lovely - both dinner and breakfast. Our room was quaint (this is a 17th Century building) even if the ceiling was a little low. The bed was very comfortable and it was very quiet so we had a good night's sleep. There is a lovely beer garden too.
