Have frequented this bar/bistro many times over the years and found the food and service at lunch time very good. However, the last visit left a lot to be desired. The bar was empty and while we waited it never improved and we simply walked away!

Fantastic food,friendly staff and a great pint. Ate here twice during our week in Southwold great both nights. We will definitely be going back the next time we are in the area. Didn't stay so can't comment on the rooms.

Stayed in this gem of a place for only 1 night but wish we could stay longer. We had the superior room which has a lovely beach view from the roll top bath. The room was spotless clean. The staff were very welcoming and the food was delicious. Excellent value

Fabulous meal with lovely staff, would definitely recommend and we will be back if in the area again. Pil Pil prawns to start followed by mussels and sea bass laska washed down with a lovely South African Chenin Blanc. No room for dessert unfortunately but the ones I saw coming out looked fab too - in fact might pop back tomorrow for one 😜. Lovely sunset view. Highly recommend

A lovely, short walk from the centre of Southwold. Absolutely delicious food. So good we almost cancelled our booking for another restaurant the following night, just so that we could come back. Generous portions. Excellent staff. Great atmosphere.

Lovely food. Friendly staff. Restaurant decorated nicely. Lovely location.
My son has nut and sesame allergies and they asked questions and were very aware of how to handle this.
All of us are vegetarian and there was plenty of choices. I had the ramen (delicious), my husband a burger (looked amazing) and my children macaroni cheese and fries. For starters we had ciabatta and spicy cauliflower bites which were out of this world!
No room for dessert!
Great drinks choices too, and they had two cocktails on tap, as well as others to choose from.
Highly recommended

We ate dinner in the sail loft, large party of 10.
Staff were very friendly looked after us well all night. Food was delicious. Lots to choose from and very accommodating to making a couple of special requests. Best place to eat in Southwold.

We discovered this gem 2 years ago the last time we visited the area and had such a good meal we all wanted to return. Sadly we couldn’t get a table this time - so went for takeaway. We weren’t disappointed!
Delicious burgers, amazing truffle fries, super fast service and very friendly staff. Next time we will book ahead as the views across the nature reserve are worth eating in for.

Had the amazing fish sharer platter here. Absolutely outstanding - so fresh and very generous portion for 2.
Good that it is open all day with a menu that gas lots of options from light bites to full meals.
Location also very good - away from town centre near the harbour with a decent some car park next to it.
Will definitely be back

Fantastic food!. The south African curried mussels and chips, I had on Sunday (5th February '23) were amazing. Our baby granddaughter thoroughly enjoyed her sausages and my husband's burger looked delicious and tasted great, he said. And his chunky chips were really good too.
