The best restaurants serving British food in Long Melford Babergh East of England

Lovely little tearoom in the village Long Melford, very warm welcome and service was excellent, tea was loose leaf and cake was lovely, with generous portion. Well worth a visit

From the first this is a memorable experience, from the warm welcome to the dishes themselves. The cooking is classic, reinvented English; The menu a temptation. You want to try everything on it, from the shrimp tempura to the tender duck breast; This is geared to foodies. My cooked foie gras on black pudding with a rich jus, simply burst with flavour. And the turbot! Just cooked, with a lobster sauce ; delicious. My wife’s duck with redcurrant sauce was succulent and tender. A rice pudding with deconstructed Blackwell pudding on raspberry jus was full of flavour, yet not too rich. This is a chef with a magic touch, who is attuned to his clientele.

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

Had a fabulous afternoon Tea today! The ladies were so friendly and tentative, the food was incredible and in such abundance! Left feeling very full of delicious treats! Definitely will be returning in the new year!

Always great service in this little bakery, fantastic cakes and bread made on the premises . Definitely recommend

Great food and great prices , this pub offers bargain meals for older folk some lunchtimes but the ordinary menu is very reasonable as well . Service was great and portions and standard of food very good

Me and wife had large cod and chips and started too get a funny oil taste and both feeling ill tonight. Wish i could sick it all up and be done with it

We stayed here for a couple of nights, while we were celebrating my friends 60th birthday party in a nearby village. Everything was great, room was fine, food good. Our only complaint was, when we returned from our friend's party between 10-10.30 pm on the Saturday night, the place was closed and in darkness. For a Saturday night, we were shocked, and as residents I was looking forward to a night cap. Unfortunately that wasn't to be. Such a shame, as if there was a night porter who could have fulfilled our request, would have given it a top review. All the staff were lovely.

The Hare is literally my go to restaurant for the most amazing Pork Belly. The cut is plentiful and always cooked to perfection with a huge amount of crackling. We were there recently for a family meal and all 9 of us commented how good to food was, even better since the last time we went (i'd also have given an Excellent rating for that meal). We will be back soon

Very welcoming team at this pub , very helpful and super efficient in such a busy environment. Great selection of drinks/beers and so on Sunday roasts great and both the classic and buttermilk Burgers were spot on. Great choice of deserts too

Myself and partner visited The Bull for a pub lunch and was greeted by the lovely barmaid Sarah whose hospitality skills were outstanding. Sarah was so professional and helpful and guided us through the menu and also asked about any allergies we may have. Our experience was outstanding and the food was amazing. My partner enjoyed the salted pepper squid for his starter and the buttermilk chicken burger for his main. I had the king prawns and chorizo for my starter which was delicious and the hunters chicken for my main. The service was outstanding by Sarah and we will definitely be returning again soon. Thank you Lyndsey and Jason

We have just had an excellent 3 night stay at the Black Lion and wanted to thank all the lovely staff for giving us such an enjoyable experience. They are a true team who work together so well meeting the needs of all who pass through their door with apparent ease, calmness and confidence. They get the balance between friendliness and professionalism absolutely right. Our room was very comfortable, clean and well-appointed with windows looking out across the village green and beyond. Our meals have been delicious and the pub/bar area with its log fire was comfortable and welcoming. Location, food, drinks, service and accommodation all come highly recommended!
