The best restaurants serving British food in Kirkley Waveney East of England

This place was a really nice find on a March Friday evening for a middle-aged but youthful couple visiting Lowestoft. Our B&B recommended the place next door (pink neon lights, fishbowl look), not for us! But right next door is a 'proper' nice pub. Comfortable, clean, and most of all, very welcoming. As soon as we were halfway to the bar, we got a cheery "hello" and "what can I get for you, are you going to be eating" I'm a bit grumpy when people are overly (falsely) friendly. But the young man and young woman who served us got it just right. Left us alone when wanted, and were quick to respond when we asked. The food is simple, (we had "chicken in a bucket') but the portions are good (but not wasteful) and really tasty and fresh. We've never been to Lowestoft before and probably never will again as we were here for a very specific reason, but our visit to this lovely pub turned a 'functional visit to the town into a pleasurable meal/night out. Thank you

We went for afternoon tea & it was very enjoyable,all nice & fresh ,The staff were lovely & service was excellent We will definitely go again

This place is not a patch on what it once was. Nice roof in the new thatch but not enough attention being paid to the food or drink we experienced. Fruit and cheese scones very poor, no marks out of 10. Very dry with virtually no cheese or fruit. Had to leave my cheese scone or else choke. Choice of cakes very poor compared to the range a while back. Lemon meringue pie looks as if it came from a builders merchant. Such a shame yet folks still seem happy to part with good money for below average quality. Coffee luke warm and weak and NO decaf avaliable. Whilst I appreciate exterior renovation is ongoing there is simply no excuse for the litter etc outside as not much effort or care required to clean up at least once a day. On a positive note, staff very efficient and polite.

Went for Christmas Dinner and dancing the meal was the worst that any of us had ever had the roast potatoes were so bad that you could not get a knife into them all dried up as was some of the veg .music was so loud we had to leave early

Brilliant service Tallula n Kayleigh done fantastic job n r a credit to the business as didn’t stop working even when quite always doin something! Well done girls keep up the great work 😄 can’t recommend this place enough

BEST place ever to eat Thanks to Clare, she is a wonderful person . She made my families experience 10x better, if your the manager reading this please give her a raise

6 of us dropped in for a drink after the cinema at 22.05 today . Totally deserted except for one customer at the bar. Waited over 5 minutes before the customer offered to find the bar staff. Empty glasses on bar and tables so obviously work to do but no staff. Young lady eventually appeared and promptly said we've finished serving. No apology. I am amazed bars can afford to turn away 6 customers let alone without an apology. Also strange on 2nd July to read Christmas menus displayed around the walls. No idea if these are very early for this year or left up from last year? I've worked in hospitality much of my life and the golden rule is 'never turn away a paying customer' Unfortunately a no stars review wasn't an option. Very disappointing.

Plusy - Lokal jest w super miejscu , przy molo w Lowestoft. ( stoliki dostepne na zewnatrz lub takeway - utrudnienia zwiazane z covid-19 ) Smaczna ryba i frytki , doskonle usmazone, odsaczone z oleju. Mila obsluga. Minusy - Kontenery ze smiecmi tuz przy wejsciu. Brudne stoliki. Nielad w calym lokalu. Sosy za dodatkowa oplata. Polecam ze wzgledu na smak i jakosc ryby.

Customer service lacking. Latte passible and shop toilets filthy. At least seating area pleasant enough. In reality, not ideal!

If I had of read these reviews before we went to Lowestoft we certainly wouldn't of chosen to eat here. Not sure they know what they are doing. We queued for 10 minutes which I know isn't that long but that was just to reach the front of the queue to put our order in as they have nothing cooked. so ordered the food & had to wait. We were in a hurry & only waited a quick sausage & chips. after waiting 15 minutes for the food & having seen people that came in after us get there food before us my wife approached the counter & asked what the hold up was, the girl was very abrupt saying I don't know I didn't serve you. we just wanted to get our food so we could get going. My wife said can we just take a normal sausage & 2 small battered to get us served & on our way. She had to ask permission & was not overly happy about it. so ruse, poor service & food not great either = Steer well clear
