Fabulous venue and lovely food.
Food was all excellent and staff were very friendly. We did get a bit lost to begin with but found it eventually as theres a few buildings around the car park. Would definitely come back is great for a date night or nice meal out in ipswich.

Great sunday lunch here today.
The service was very good. I had the beef roast with a side of panchetta mac n cheese. The mac n cheese was great..flavoursome and with lots of melted cheese on top.
There's so much on the roast. The beef was tender as was the braised beef. Vegetables were cooked perfectly.. and lots of variation. Tenderstem broccoli, carrot, red cabbage, parsnip, mash potato. Roast potatoes were crispy and soft in the middle. Pig in blanket good, stuffing not my thing (unless it's pork stuffing) so for something I don't usually like it was OK. Plenty of gravy. Good yorkshire pudding crispy and soft in the middle. Generous horseradish sauce which was hot and probably the best horseradish I've had. Wine was OK.
They had apple tarte tartin on the menu which I love. Even though I was full I had to order it... but I was so disappointed.. I was looking forward to the pastry with the caramelised edges.. but rather than pastry it was apples in a sponge base.. 😞 the texture of the sponge wasn't nice and had I known it was apples in a sponge case rather than tart tartin I would have never ordered it. The vanilla ice cream was good.

A nice place, good food and service
We visited this restaurant for a family meal on 29.03.26, and following this 8 out of the 12 in the party were severely unwell, including 3 young children. We also knew another person in a seperate party who was also severely unwell. We raised our concerns to the venue who waited over 24 hours before reaching out to me, after I sent a follow up email. Within this call, I was condescended constantly, no empathy, just constantly trying to find ways to not accept liability. They did not do any checks to establish whether it was their food or the cleanliness of the restaurant, just continued to say we must have all caught something but it was not in their restaurant. The only place we have all been together was at the restaurant, so it is not possible we could have caught anything elsewhere. The manager on the phone seemed more concerned about whether I was recording the call than how ill so many people had been following the meal we had at the venue.
Due to how ill so many people were I would be highly concerned about the cleanliness and food hygiene of this restaurant.
FOLLOWING COMMENT FROM RESTAURANT -
This is a completely accurate review of our visit. The reviews have been left by members of my party who have experienced exactly the same illness since eating at your restaurant. You have completed no checks to establish whether or not your food hygiene or cleanliness is adequate following our visit, nor have you spoken with any other attendees of the restaurant that day. You said yourself that 3 employees are also ill at the same time, which further supports the claims of a cleanliness issue! PLEASE BE AWARE EATING HERE!
