The Nelson

A lovely, traditional pub just a stones throw away from the Ipswich waterfront. We ate here for Sunday lunch and the roast dinners on offer were fantastic; as a group we had both the meat and vegetarian options, all of which we'd happily recommend. As well as great food, the atmosphere is always great and the service is very friendly and efficient. I'd happily recommend this pub.

Called here last Sunday afternoon and received a warm welcome. The Ghost Ship was in good fettle but it is served via tap on a wood keg, not hand pulled, so you don't get a good head all the way down like we Northerners like! The chili beef nachos and Sunday roast pork dinner were very good indeed. Log burners in traditional surroundings make for an enjoyable cold winter afternoon. The staff here deserve a special mention and they also took care of our dog. Highly recommended.

This has fast become my favourite place for a Sunday roast in Ipswich. Generous portions of meat and vegetables and usually a crumble of the day to finish. I generally have a red wine and my partner has a guiness. The guiness is good (apparently it varies from place to place but this gets the thumbs up). Serves until 7pm on a Sunday. Prices are reasonable.
