After a couple of jobs in Halesworth this morning I found Ancient House and I’m very glad I did. They served me a spectacular beef brisket sandwich and gorgeous tempura prawns. Ancient House has a beautiful setting with original features and pokey rooms. The service was super friendly and happy which is always refreshing attribute. The menu was mouth-wateringly simple. I was told the Katsu curry bowl is a favourite so I will have to return. Thank you

Deceptively simple food, to a surprisingly high standard for the price. We dropped in for unplanned lunch, and were very impressed. Two of is chose three small plates to share, and each was simple, expertly prepared, delicious and healthy. Service was friendly, great coffee, and friendly staff. Will definitely be back for a full dinner!

Good food. Lovely courtyard. Very interesting and atmospheric trip up the stairs to the loos. The house really is ancient. The individual hand towels were a nice touch.
