The best restaurants serving British food in Waveney East of England

Had tea and cake here didn't wait long and they let our little dog in to do it is very dog and family friendly will return soon thank you

Came here a few times when on holiday. Had croissants, sausage rolls, sourdough bread, baguettes and cinnamon swirls. All amazing! Always a queue but worth the wait

Stayed here for one night, beautiful room with lots of nice little touches. Complimentary breakfast was super tasty and everybody was really friendly, would come again.

Simply the best beach cafe with an amazing view of the sea and beach. Excellent at lunch as well as afternoon tea. One word of warning, look out for pesky seagulls.

Had not visited Posh Pigs for breakfast for a while, its about twenty miles away being the only reason. Delighted to find that their breakfasts remain the best in the area, superb quality sausages, really tasty eggs, toast as it should be etc etc. Great friendly service as well and good pricing, obvious why they are always so busy regardless of their out of the way location. And a warm welcome for Bear the greyhound as well. I can highly recommend Posh Pigs, its a great cafe!

I have had breakfast here twice now. It’s a great prospect and the food is excellent. All portion preferences catered for, the mega is what it says and would feed two! Great value! The queue is a bit of a pain but they do serve fast and delicious coffees! Worth a visit

Very very busy Sunday lunch service. Roast beef and all the trimmings, nice wobbly panacotta with ice cream. So tasty, one of the best Sunday lunch meals we’ve had in a long time. The staff are great friendly and helpful. The chefs who cooked our food produced quality food. Well done.

Don't be put off by reviews for the year pre October 2024 as the Mardle has now changed hands and is back to its wonderful standard again. 6 friends met for afternoon tea and were delighted with all the food on offer. There was a good choice of sandwiches, cakes and scones (sweet or savoury) and as much tea as we could drink. The crockery is a wonderful mix of mismatched bone china which adds to the attraction of this village tearoom. Staff are very friendly and efficient. Will definitely go again.

Booked for Mothering Sunday, this is a quaint little pub/restaurant, with a limited menu. We both had the Roast Pork. The meal was ok and the service was good.

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

Absolutely fantastic pub very welcoming fantastic food, I took my little boy with me for lunch and Stella was so accommodating I just felt like I was at home will definitely be back asap

Our visit was lunch time on a Sunday. The food was very nice and the service was excellent. The Plough is very local for us, but we hadn’t been there for many years (before I had a wheelchair). Entering through the front door was a tight squeeze, but I made it. That’s with an electric power-chair. They don’t have an accessible toilet, but I knew that before we went.

Service was very good food was not good just finished starters and main was bought out it had been stitting under pig lights and was cold chef could be bothered some nice pub but we must of hit a bad night

How Posh Pigs gets rated higher than this wonderful place is quite beyond me. Don't get me wrong, anywhere else PP would be the best in the area by a country mile, but MA's Airfied Diner trumps it easily on all counts. The ingredients are better quality, the atmosphere is far better, it is much more welcoming and the breakfasts and superb home cooked dishes are considerably superior. Plus they fry fried bread instead of boiling it in oil which is an abomination. I too would prefer china instesad of paper plates but you have to consider the practicalities they face in trying to keep their prices so reasonable vs. staff costs for washing up (only two max in the kitchen, and they work flat-out cooking). For food this good I'll happily live with that (very) minor popint. Everyone I take there says it is the best breakfast they've ever had. 'nuff said.

Excellent breakfast before a round ar next door Southwold Golf Club . All day breakfast very well priced at £8 and it set us up nicely for a battle against the wind.
