The best restaurants serving British food in Suffolk Coastal East of England

Best fish in town!! For sure I will come again.

Rarely do you find food of this excellent quality served by exemplary staff at a reasonable price......

We were a group of 19, all with Basset hounds, that were made to feel very welcome. This is definitely a very dog friendly pub that does great food that’s reasonably priced. (All our group said how much they enjoyed the food). This is the second time I have been there and can’t fault it. The garden room is perfect for groups like ours. Many thanks, Kent Basset Waddle.

Have just got home after having a roast dinner at Ruby's, I had heard good reviews about their roasts, it was amazing, best roast potatoes ever. Absolutely delicious all of it!!

I haven't been to Dunwich for about 15 years. I remember there used to be a great tea room back then that my mother recommended! This must have long since gone! We had walked cross country from Southwold forgetting what a long walk it is We discovered dingle tea rooms at the end of the walk in a rural setting. It's a lovely setting with extensive barns and tables. Having frequented similar establishments in other parts of the country I thought we were in for a treat Nothing was wrong with the food it was just a little uninspiring. Very plain cakes and prawn sandwiches made from those tiny prawns you buy trozen. All nicely served by attentive waiting staff it just lacked that lush factor that you sometimes find in these sort of places. Maybe my expectations were too high.....

First visit to this exceptional restaurant. Chef and staff are all so friendly and welcoming. It took a moment to work out the lunch system, but we will definitely return!!

This was our third trip on the Lady Florence. This time for breakfast. The food is prepared and cooked on board whilst we motor along the river. The dining room is comact - if there are 12 people on board, then it does get a little 'cosy'. However, on this occassion we chartered the boat for just the four of us, so it was very roomy. There is a wood burning stove on board that keeps the dining room very warm. Breakfast was rounded off with homemade apple pie and muffins!

Quaint setting within the station and seating outside in the sun the day we visited Food drinks brought out to your table and a decent size pot of tea for several servings All the cakes looked delicious and other peoples food also looked good Friendly staff

Nice friendly club, lovely breakfast, and the course was a joy, made better by the gloriously sunny weather..

Great little tea rooms, with home made cakes, breakfasts & light bites, all made to order. Very friendly staff to us & our dog, with quick service. Had a lovely large pot of tea for one & cherry almond scone. Although struggled to choose a cake, as so much lovely selection. Prices very reasonable. Would go again if passing the area, but currently on holiday.

Got a takeaway Cappucino, sausage roll and biscuits for the dog🤣. The sausage roll is exceptionally good👌🌟🌟. Coffee is great too. The Jack Russell enjoyed his biscuits, plus a bit of my sausage roll🙄😅. Service was prompt, efficient and polite. Totally recommend.

This is now actually called the Alde Cafe. I’ve been twice in the last three days. There are fancier places along the High Street, but you will not get a better meal there than you will find at the Alde. Sean is a brilliant cook who prepares every dish with both flare and a respect for tradition. It was the best fry up I have had in the last twenty years, and a welcomed alternative to the recent tendency of serving them up in thali dishes, with about a tablespoon of beans in one and a cubic centimeter of toast in another. I just had the kedgeree, which was magnificently prepared with haddock from the smokehouses along the Shingle. There are many reasons to come to ever-beautiful Aldeburgh. But I’d rank breakfast or lunch at the Alde Cafe at the very top of my list.

Covid has caused a lot of problems in maintaining standards but by now I would have thought things should be back to normal. Tea used to be served in a pot and coffee in proper cups and plates for food. Now we have paper cups for tea and coffee and cakes are given out just wrapped in cling-film. No table service any more as you have to wait for your order to be prepared and handed to you. The food is still good but the whole experience is not worth walking the length of the prom. There used to be more tables and with parasols on the hot days - but no more. I think they need to get back to the standards they used to have as people will go to the new cafe's that are opening.

Authentic Pie, Mash n' liquor in Felixstowe - I popped in here after a couple of beers on the front - lovely pies, good old mash and proper liquor - knife, fork and spoon for the liquor, with vinegar, just like in London SE1 - interesting photos of England football stars and a bit of banter with the owner. All in all a great lunch and long may they thrive in Felixstowe.

Certainly not value for money, poor quality!! I shall not be returning for a second visit as I did not enjoy what I had and it was not value for money!
