The best restaurants serving British food in Babergh East of England

good choice and fine cuisine - wont say too much as I dont want others to block my future reservations - enough said though !

Highly recommended. Such wonderful thoughtful staff and fabulous afternoon tea. Everything on the cake stand was utterly delicious. The birthday 'girl' was made to feel very special. Thank you Long Melford Tearoom, we will certainly be back.

Amazing ice cream! A big bonus for us was that it was suitable for our nut-allergic son, who almost never gets this sort of ice cream treat. The lady was very knowledgeable about her ingredients as it’s homemade, and made sure she got a fresh scoop for him too. He declared it the best ice cream ever! The coffee was also delicious, piping hot & served in beautiful eco-friendly cups with different designs. Highly recommend and not just for the summer, the hot chocolate looked amazing too and there was a lovely selection of gifts in the shop.

Hired the Strawberry Teapot for Afternoon tea on Sunday 1st for my uncle’s 80th birthday. Was a breeze to organise. India and the staff were helpful with allergies and vegetarianism and the food was lovely! A delicious afternoon tea at The Strawberry Teapot combined with a trip down the river with the lovely people at the Stour River Trust made for a perfect day! Thank you!

We went to the campground out back, it was great massive field and only cost 5 quid for two nights with power and Wi-Fi! Excellent would go there again

Lovely little cafe, with homemade food. My sister and I had the breakfast, freshly cooked and delicious. Service was excellent. Menu changes daily and Ann made you feel welcome. Good cup of coffee too! Will definitely be going back again.

Very friendly clients and good quality beer. I was looking for a friendly chatty atmosphere where me and the wife could chill and this was perfect.

Best sandwiches I've ever tasted, great value too.

We chose the Lodge for my dad's 80th birthday celebrations. We could not have chosen anywhere better. There were 22 of us. The food was amazing, service impeccable and the Staff could not have been more accommodating and helpful. We will definitely return, as will so many of the first timers in the party. A real hidden gem

Amazing fish and chips! Good price! Amazing service! They really are the cod fathers

Had the best Sunday roast we have had for years. What a lovely friendly pub. Even our dog was welcome in the bar area.

Think I dropped unlucky on my visit, the chips weren't fresh cooked although plentiful. The batter on the fish was thick and soggy. I'm hoping my visit wasn't typical of the usual standard . The lady behind the counter was very friendly but with the economic crisis going on people have to vote with their feet and I'm going to be more careful I'm getting value for money

This has become our go to pub when travelling home to the Netherlands via Harwich. Just a short detour from the main road will bring you to this lovely spot. The garden is pretty and usually we eat outside. Weather was a bit nippy this time so we found a spot indoors. Very charming and quirky. The food arrived quickly and was piping hot. We've sampled most things on the menu over the last few years but I have to say my steak and ale pie was particularly good this time. Such a shame that we can never fit in a dessert.

Chose to go here as they allow dogs inside and was nice to see the 'help yourself' station to dog bowls, water and a treat jar. Lovely breakfast and friendly staff.

The service and food was absolutely amazing and couldn't do enough for us, and we will definitely go back. The place was very clean and the food was very reasonably priced
