"the staff was really friendly and talked to them. the restaurant, although we did not eat tonight and saw the reserved notes on the tables, were full tonight. it is under new management that we have found out and the food that comes into the tables looked very good. have not seen any teller with food yet on them when clearing the tables. the menu itself is a simple pub menu, the pizzas looked really good. it has a small parking space and the pub looks like it was recently decorated. a very nice pub that we can re-enter ourselves."

"Waiting service asked the same questions, ordered roast pork loin but got belly of pork, confusion from the staff over the difference in coffees, and we were sat right in front of the singer who was very good but meant that we couldn’t talk as she was too loud."

"Went for a girly night out, which we were all looking forward to but only to be very disappointed. Firstly, place was cold we needed to keep our coats on. The food was so awful, rather spicy for what normally are mild dishes, food very oily, especially in the rice, not presented well. Naan bread was covered in greasy oil like cheese, disgusting. Also found a hair on the plate which immediately put us off. The service was very poor, only one person serving, we had to remind to bring cutlery and plates. The last straw was when our food arrived we were told no card machine and was cash only!! So we had to find a cash machine to pay our bill. Honestly we should of refused to pay as it was so bad. Sadly we will not be returning, had several takeaway months ago which were great. What has happened to this place? Do not waste your money nothing nice to say at all sorry!!"

"I was so impressed by this hotel. We received a warm welcome from manager Matthew and were shown to our gorgeous 'classic ' room on the first floor. The room was spacious and very tastefully decorated. It was truly one of the nicest country hotel rooms i have stayed in. The bathroom was large, with a walk in shower, lovely toiletries and fluffy towels. The room was well equipped with a safe, coffee maker and kettle, air cooling unit and large TV. We very much enjoyed our breakfast which had plenty of hot and cold options. The common spaces were also beautifully decorated, and all the staff we encountered were friendly and efficient. Aldeburgh is only a 15-20 minute drive away and there are also country walks nearby. A great choice for a couple of days away. It is worth checking their website for special deals."

"Thursday 30 jan22 was our fourth visit since the takeover of the new owner and his always good beer and eat etc. but unfortunately there has gone a bit quite wrong now. we were a party of 3 this time, but 4-6 at earlier locations. three. steaks, two were in order, the third was the half of the size and not the same cut. I should have sent it back, but the others in the party had a good time so I had it slipped, which was a mistake. then moved back into the desert two were good, the third (mine) was a pure ice cream, but I soon discovered to my frightening a sharp clump of plastic (probably broken from the storage container lid) in my mouth the size of a £ 1 coin! I hate to think what might be happy. this was the last stray, until the counter (plastic and ice in the hand) and told the waitress, where I was offered a replacement or ice from the bill. no apology by management. No, I'm sorry. I just couldn't believe what I heard. because I suspected that the duty would come to a number of people and later talked about it. Oh and yes, it gets worse. we ordered a few take-beers and it came from another and I thought a few words of apology or a discount maybe, na zilch. we paid left and with no tip. it is only the quality of the beer that stops this total value lees. our group visits rendham several times a year, but we will not go there again! the personal needs a certain training to deal with such problems, although it should not be before. tony reading"
