The best restaurants serving Other cuisines food in East of England

The food is good, but everything else is the reason I probably won't come here again. The app/website needed to order is not very user-friendly and pretty unsociable - we spent at least 20 minutes glued to our phones trying to place our order. Loads of menu items listed as "currently unavailable". Some food came out really fast, and some took over 30 minutes. General atmosphere is fine - a bit like a school dining hall. I imagine that it's nicer when they have live music. The whole vibe just seems a bit overcomplicated for no reason.

Excellent to have our local reopen again . Like normal excellent service nice to have a landlord that genuinely cares about his business the man never stops working . Great team felt safe with Covid restrictions. Would just be great if the pay at table app was more consistent to help take the pressure off the waiting staff .

The accommodation was clean and warm , loved the powerful shower. Really comprehensive welcome pack .There were activities during the day and evening,a nice pool .The meals were varied and very good quality.a mix of waiter service or help yourself loads to choose from .All the staff we met were very helpful and high staffing levels always some one to ask..

For any music-lovers, and particularly folk music lovers, The Ship is a fascinating destination. With hundreds of years of history of hosting gigs (ongoing!) and open mics, and great photo collection on the walls of gigs gone by, it is well worth a visit. Drinks are reasonably-priced and the staff very friendly. We will be back!

We visited for a breakfast. All was beautifully cooked, hot and fresh and probably the best breakfast I’ve ever had actually. Served by the chef herself.

We nipped in for lunch on a Sunday. The carvery was amazing and was a reasonable price. We also had a lovely pudding. The waitressing staff were so kind and attended to us very quickly. We will definitely visit again!

Visited 30/10 Had Philly cheesesteak, fries and chicken tenders with a few beers. Food was great, and service was good. Really pleasant lunch 👍

Poor. We arrived at the start of the day with few other customers. I had the full English which looked picture perfect. However, it was largely cold, especially the beans which I didn't eat. The sourdough toast was so thin it tastes and looked like a flatter Ryvita wafer. I would not recommend this as a destination for breakfast and won't be returning.

This is the third 2 magpies bakery cafe we have been too. Both Blakeney and Wells are brilliant. The one at Holt was poor , floor needed sweeping, we were told 3 times they were understaffed. The food selection was very poor, no scones at all. We had to wait to be served, 2 other couples near us waited for ages to be served. I went to pay and had to wait ages. This is not the normal standard we expected from the 2 magpies, will not go to the Holt cafe again. Will carry on with the other two

Visited today.. how sad I used to run the clock house , which was a vibrant place for locals and friends of Southwold to visit We worked hard to look after customers always making sure they were happy with the products we happily delivered. Coffees were made for local customers as we saw them walk up the pier, making them feel special and valued….. not today, staff totally uninterested, unmotivated, no leadership It made me feel very sad to see this special venue so badly run I was also grubby, uncared for… let’s hope the new owners do something fast, before the season starts

With new management the Bell Inn has really improved. Was already a pub with potential but with the refurb and friendly staff, its a great place for a bite to eat (great pizzas) and great for families with loads of out door space. Inside is cosy and welcoming. Looking forwards to our next visit!

We were recommended by friends, we went for breakfast and we can recommend it, the food was fantastic and the staff were great, we will be returning, really enjoyed ourselves.

When going for one of our walks we always try and end near this lovely Deli in Chigwell. Normally a coffee, which are excellent and although we try not too, we always succumb to one of the pastries or cakes which are sublime! Everyone working here are so welcoming and friendly. There is seating inside and outside and everywhere is absolutely spotless, as soon as a table is empty it is cleaned ready for the next lucky customer. Thank you to all at the Chigwell Village Deli and becoming part of our walking ritual! Jill & Warren

We went for lunch with friends and were extremely disappointed. We had a jacket potato (£8.25)and one each of the pie meals(£13.95). All three meals were virtually inedible. The inside of the jacket potato was rock hard and the skin very shrivelled- it had obviously been microwaved to within an inch of its life. The chicken and ham pie was dry while the steak pie contained nothing but gristle. Both pie meals were served with limp vegetables and dry chips and were lukewarm in parts and cold in others. The microwave not working efficiently for these meals. At the price this was nothing less than daylight robbery and if we hadn’t been with friends all three meals would have been returned and our money refunded. Drinks are also excessively priced and the service was poor as well. Needless to say we will never return.

Went for a couple of pints at lunch time, and had a lovely time. Delightful bartender, who was friendly, helpful and efficient. Good selection of real ales and craft. Comfortable and clean environment with a nice atmosphere, when we went. We're not local, but hope to go back for a curry one evening, as the menu looked great.
