"My husband and I went to eat on a Saturday evening, even though we didn’t book we managed to get a table ok The pub/restaurant area were very nice but the food was not. The waitress took our drinks and food order. We had to wait nearly 30 minutes and had to remind the waitress we had ordered drinks and where our drinks were as at that time the bar wasnt even busy. When they eventually arrived we waited another 30 minutes for our food to arrive. We ordered the chicken burger and the specialty pie. Both were very disappointing. The chicken was overcooked and burnt and the chips weren’t cooked in the middle and the pie was mainly pastry. The waitress asked if everything is ok and when we said no, she just said “oh ok” and walked away We called the head waitreaw over and were offered another chicken burger meal but by then we didn’t want to wait any longer as pub/restaurant was getting busier At first we were offered 20% off of one of the meals but we said no and ended up not being charged for the burnt overcooked meal which hadn’t been eaten. We wont be rushing back"

I live in the East Suffolk area and have been to the Crown a number of times, Our lunch on 14th and dinner on 15th September were excellent and all of the staff very welcoming and helpful. Thank you.

We booked a table for 8:30, arrived to be told that the kitchen had taken last orders already and we could not eat here. After travelling some way to get to the location we struggled to find somewhere else for food. Very disappointing

Afternoon tea on my birthday was a great experience, so much care and attention given to every item on the menu. Being super critical I would have preferred just a few more savoury items and less sweet dishes. Otherwise a perfect experience.

We visited the Crown for afternoon tea. The menu was very different to the usual traditional afternoon tea, but was delicious and very efficiently served. The staff are all very friendly and can’t do enough to make your visit pleasurable. Would have no hesitation to return again.

We went to celebrate my husbands birthday with friends bar has no atmosphere the lunch we had was a starter and a dessert but they tried to still charge us £26 for 2 courses! Euan was great and sorted it out eventually! Waiting time for food was ridiculous! Breakfast this morning was tasteless!

Friendly staff and the new General Manager is doing an excellent job. It was good that locals also came into The Crown at lunchtime and in the evenings. The bedrooms and ensuites in the hotel are a good size, clean and well-serviced. Good choices of cereal, yoghurt and pastries for breakfast. Sausages, mushrooms and eggs were all cooked very well and there was a choice of other breakfast dishes. The Dinner Menu could be simplified. We thought the best Starters were the Mushrooms and the Smoked Salmon dishes and the best Mains were the Trout and Lamb 3 ways dishes. The Crown is within easy walking distance of the Woodbridge Tide Mill; one of only two in the UK. Sutton Hoo is about 10 minutes...

Chicken Terrine was watery and not seasoned, it came with a mini loaf which wasn’t easy to cut, butter was ice cold. Initially I asked for the kidney starter, however not available. For main I asked for paella with additional octopus, again octopus not available. Paella was shockingly poor, pale yellow in colour and no flavour, again very watery. I asked for a lemon wedge to try and bring it to life, and was given three slices of lemon from behind the bar (for use on drinks) to try and squeeze over the dish. I informed the manager on shift about the paella, who walking up to the table seemed to know the food wasn’t going to be up to standard. Either an off day for the chef or they are out of...

Pig-hivier The ‘Pie of Pies’ in Sci’s eyes! A classy French pithivier pie filled with pork shoulder, picnic ham, our back belly bacon, homemade black pudding apricot, in a light apple velouté. Now served with sweet potato chervil mash, freshly picked garden beans, black garlic butter. What an amazing pie this is …. definitely worth a visit to try the new menu And also the new curry with squid Malay Korma Curry (Plant Based) (GF) Light fragrant spiced curry, potatoes, mixture of summer-harvested beans, bok choy, spinach, mustard greens, chard, carrot, basmati rice We were really impressed with the service in the restaurant from Amy who guided us with the choices of dishes we wouldn’t normally...
