Saturday 24th September booked a table for 4 persons arrived 4.30 pre Theatre meal. Ordered some drinks at the bar and was asked to order food at the bar when we had decided. Went to order Scampi, Chicken Burger, Guinness and beef stew was told nothing available, our friend changed to beef burger, I asked for Fish and chips guess non available, was offered chili with rice and Chips! or Vegan dishes not much to pick from so asked for
Ribeye steak to be told non left. I couldn't believe it the young lady asked someone else who said some steaks had been served so she checked and came back and said there were two left so I said you best be quick and and save one for me. Then to order more drinks I asked for a pint of Neck oil non available, I then asked for Aspall's cider non available so settled on a lager beer. when our food was served two ladies who arrived later and two more at another table were all served Beef and Guinness casserole. We couldn't believe it when we asked the bar staff why
we were told the food list hadn't been updated. We were all disappointed the food we had was ok but not what we had hoped for. This was the first pub we had ever been in where there was a lack of beer and lack of food for a first time visit this was very poor and would not return again if we had just turned up on the off chance of food then I would have understood but not having booked a table a week before hand. Could not recommend .

This place has been refurbished well, lots of people at 6pm, managed to grab the last table, so not sure if they take reservations as I had tried to book via email. Staff friendly and welcoming. Food was hot (given amount of orders going through the kitchen) tasty and filling and a perfect start to the evening with the show at the Regent to follow.

Is a local pub w/local business. Get served pretty quick the food is good if you like that thing. Best during eraly stay late leave sort of thing. Not seen a idiot yet so fingers crossed I won't again. Could do with improving in some areas but as this situation has hit us it will hit them a bit too.

What a gem of a place.. found it by accident as the Chinese was closed. beautiful inside. Lovely atmosphere. Food was yummy. I had fish and chips. Highly recommend. We will be back.

Good selection on tap, food excellent. Nice place to be when Ipswich play at home on a Saturday as it is just that bit quieter and more relaxed. Sky Sports etc too.

Lovely staff very clean and friendly and as I am a fussy eater was sceptical but I needn't have been the food is first class served very quickly and very well presented... Well worth a visit...

Fantastic food friendly staff and great value . Can't wait to try the bottomless yorkie at some point 😋
