The best restaurants serving Other european-cuisines food in Babergh East of England

My wife and I enjoyed lunch and dinner here before staying overnight and if one word is needed to sum up this place it would be 'charming'. The location is charming, the building is charming and all the staff are charming. Linda is a lovely hostess and instantly makes you feel at home. The facilities are spotless and the prices are very reasonable. Particular mention goes to the chef. Not only is the food absolutely delicious and exquisitely presented but it is always piping hot. Already planning a return trip and stay.

This was our first visit but based on our experience today it won’t be our last. Superb food and service in a delightful setting. The sunny garden was just delightful. Lots of choice for everyone and some good offers too. Oh and excellent top notch toilets. Seems weird to mention but this is an aspect that lets many places down.

I'd love to be able to review the food but, this is the mail I have had to send today: I am gravely disappointed and very, very upset by your total lack of customer care: I had a reservation in your restaurant on 24th December, for 3 people. I have a written confirmation (made many weeks ago). This event was 'Christmas' with my daughter and husband as we are apart for the rest of the holidays. I had an alternative booked but my daughter asked if we could come to you: I booked THEN cancelled my other reservation. Yesterday, just 1 week before Christmas, a 'chirpy' but utterly uncaring and dismissive person called to say, 'the manager has said we are only doing Christmas lunch for residents so we need to cancel your reservation. Sorry about that. He said you can have an afternoon tea reservation and use of the Spa if you like. Protest was met with the same chirpy dismissal, followed by an email that did not apologise (no apology received, AT ALL) that confirmed the cancellation, seeming to imply that I had cancelled it. This is appalling customer service: period! People have told me you are a great venue... really??? Maybe in terms of food but certainly not, if this is an example of normal practice, in terms of customer care. Why would I want afternoon tea when I had booked a Christmas lunch? (Not a FREE afternoon tea at a time of my choice even but a 'reservation'!) Why would I want to use your SPA on Christmas eve, with my son in law (???) and when I have Banatynes membership? You have WRECKED my Christmas and simply don't care? I really would like a written apology and explanation please.

Called here on a ride with friends, great hospitality, great food and drink, really accommodating as we descended, unannounced on our ride from London to Cambridge. Thanks!

I have just been to the Ram for a Sunday roast I had the beef and it was excellent my wife had the turkey and she said hers was excellent to. We also had a sweet each which was just as lovely. Darcy and Henry served us and they were terrific cannot recommend it enough well worth a visit.
