The Fox Inn

The St, Darsham, Saxmundham

Ate dinner here with some Darsham locals - was so pleasantly surprised by quality of food, atmosphere and general location of pub and interior. Will definitely return when we visit our family again in the village (and as husband wants to try the pork belly he eyed jealously on my plate). Good food at affordable prices in a pub is relatively rare these days - but the Fox has nailed it.

THE POACHERS POCKET

Great relaxed atmosphere and the food was fantastic. Made a meal for our fussy son that he really enjoyed at no greater cost than a child's meal. Shame the car park is so small but there is ample parking 100yds away on the road.

The Rendham White Horse

Bruisyard Rd, Rendham, Saxmundham

Always get a warm welcome from Luna the dog and Sharon! Sweet corn fritters are a staple, the fish pie is always delicious. Lots of pastry pies at the moment which are also mouth-wateringly tasty - have tried the steak and kidney and the chicken. Lovely pub in a great village. Very good for evenings and also to stop off at for weekend lunch if you’re on a cycle/ walk.

Just had a really lovely meal at the Chequers Pub. We ate there last year and thought we would pop back and try it again. Just as good as last year. The sweet was to die for. Definitely recommend this pub.Proper village pub with excellent food 5 stars.

I ordered the Pulled Beef Ravioli, best dish I have ever eaten and I've eaten in many 5* Restaurants. I can't recommend this dish and restaurant enough. The Tiramisu, best I've ever eaten! Absolutely amazing, thank you for a wonderful meal

Mandarin House

47 High St, Saxmundham

Awesome local Chinese. Extremely authentic food, always fresh, always hot but most importantly it’s always delicious. Only thing they could change is the chicken balls, make them less doughy. Prices have gone up which is disappointing but we understand why.

Dietary restrictions: They cater for all I believe.

Parking: Its on the street.

Kid-friendliness: Always friendly. The chap on the desk will always hold a conversation down if he isn’t busy.

Wheelchair accessibility: Not particularly Wheelchair friendly as there is a step in. However if they saw a wheelchair user they would for sure help them in.

Plough and Sail Snape

Snape Bridge, Snape, Saxmundham

We were quite late for lunch and the pub was quite busy but they found a table for us and looked after us really well. The menu was varied and there was a specials board with more choices. Three of us had dressed crab and 1 person had their burger. The meals were excellent. The pub is dog friendly so you can sit inside or out. Snape Maltings, which the pub fronts, is also worth a visit and you can walk along the river.

Tipi Café

Tunstall, Saxmundham

Walked from Aldeburgh to the Tipi café, first time we have been to the maltings. Staff were great at the tip café, the coffee was over priced for what it was, but in reality you are not really paying over the odds for the coffee, you're paying for the respite in wonderful location with a lovely ambience. I shall be returning in a couple of days time, so happy days. Now for my walk back!

Waitrose Cafe Saxmundham

Church Hill, Saxmundham

A quick shop at my local Waitrose supermarket only to try the new automated checkout system where you pretend to be a checkout assistant and scan your own items one by one, supervised by a Waitrose partner! However, would not accept my google wallet payment on my smart phone. After 10 minutes with the supervisor struggling to get the payment authorised, we both gave up. Not the service we expect from a prestigious supermarket. You can understand why they have a sign by these machines stating all customers will be prosecuted for not paying for their purchases. What a cheek when their machines aren't able to cope with the modern payment methods, why should the customer feel responsible.
Get your act together Waitrose, you're not a dinosaur. Or are you!

Queens Head

Chinese food here is great. We got a take away with a lots of dishes. The standouts for us were The sweet n sour prawn balls, they were amazing, they’re not too bready. The Satay sauce is proper tasty. I use to live in Hong Kong and it’s very difficult to find proper special fried rice in this country, it’s normally dark and soaked in soy sauce and it shouldn’t be. This place does it right. YUM!

The Ship at Dunwich

St James's St, Dunwich, Saxmundham

We stayed at The Ship for 2 nights, a couple of weekends ago. The location was nice, with a quiet beach within 5 minutes walk.
The room and the staff were great, very friendly and welcoming, dogs are also welcome, which was one of the reasons that we booked here originally.
The only minor issue that I had, was the lack of available parking onsite, although there was parking available on the street outside.

We mostly went into nearby Southwold during the day, which is only about 20 minutes drive away.
Our evenings were spent in the bar, where I discovered Hawkstone Cider. Now all I need to do is find somewhere local to me that sells it!

Costa Coffee Saxmundham

Church Street, Saxmundham

It's Costa. The food is mostly prepackaged and heated as required. The coffee and other drinks look good but I have tea, sadly they don't offer decaffeinated tea but they do offer different types of milk. I enjoy the location and going with a friend. The seating is nicely spaced out and we can talk without being overheard. It is a pleasant experience.
