The best restaurants serving Default food in Southwold and Reydon Waveney East of England

We were in Southwold for the day and wanted a tasty lunch, we had seen the cafe a couple of weeks ago when on holiday and the reviews looked good The cafe certainly didn’t disappoint, we sat at a table under the verandah overlooking the lake with our dog and ordered jacket potatoes with cheese and beans, side salad and coleslaw - it was a beautiful sunny mild day (18C) The potatoes were beautifully cooked with a fluffy hot inside filled with cheese and beans and the salad had a really tasty vinaigrette on it, plus a cappuccino and a tea Happy and helpful staff, serving really good food at a very competitive price made our day and we will return on our next visit to Southwold Thanks to all staff

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

Great value, location and quality cafe. Right on the beach with an outdoor seating area and friendly staff. They even offer puppachino drinks for dogs!

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.

Wonderful lunch Attentive service Knowledgeable staff and incredible food. Will definitely check recommend and return on our next visit to southwold.

Popped in for breakfast and was greeted by a really really lovely team. Even lovelier food and drink - yummy bacon roll and a wonderful pot of tea! The best I’ve had in a while. Nice to watch the mini golf too, will be returning with my partner! Thanks folks!

The staff here were really friendly. We went in for some ice cream and we got substantial portion sizes which was appreciated. I had a salted caramel. It was alright but certainly not the best salted caramel ice cream i’ve had as it wasn’t that flavoursome. But the other flavours looked really nice and might be better than the caramel so I’d say defo worth a visit

Nice enough cafe typical of those around UK. Sadly though waiting staff were rude on our arrival - we went to the back of the cafe to look at the nice view and the map of walks before deciding to stay for a coffee, so we walked through cafe to the front of it to wait to be seated as requested on the entrance sign - we were chastised for not coming through front door and also for taking a can of sparkling drink from the chiller cabinet (we wanted to pay to take it away with us after having coffee). The can was removed from us as we were firmly informed we should have entered through front door, waited to be seated and they would bring us everything we requested. The waitress clearly felt we needed dressing down instead of welcoming us. They showed us to a table (the cafe was pretty empty tbh and this seemed OTT). As a result we didn’t get to see the variety of cakes on display at the check out desk so we didn’t feel we wanted to order one with our coffee. I would suggest the management need to review the processes for welcoming customers so that they are made to feel at home - my husband joked that it felt like the military were running it. Also if you want to offer a variety of cakes, put them where people can view them before they are asked to order. All told it was a bit of a turn off and we won’t return. Not to our taste.

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.

Just having coffee and cake orange drizzle cake (absolutely delicious) And lovely friendly staff Highly recommend will definitely be back

What a smashing little place. Very fresh pastries cakes and snacks with a little bit of different in all of them. Freshly baked by Jake’s mum and God love them all, this place offers over and above what the others have in Southwold. It is quirky, wholesome and if I lived locally, I would say addictive.

Since it was launched last year, this has become our lockdown weekly treat. I cannot recommend this highly enough, they are all amazing and I cannot pick a favourite.

It's a great cafe, just across the road from the pier. Visited today for some lunch and we had a Ham and Cheese Toastie and a Ham and Cheese Panini. Both were nice and tasty. Would recommend. Staff are friendly and welcoming. Service was excellent.

Lovely hotel. Impeccable service. Decor in the rooms is very tasteful. Staff polite and helpful. Sufficient car parking. Located centrally. Complementary small bottle of Adnams gin in the room is the perfect touch. Would highly recommend

We had a takeaway while camping at Pigs in blankets site. The food was excellent, my husband said one of the tastiest Chinese meals has had.
