The Orchard Room - Menu

Sitting outside nest to an orchard with the countryside and chickens for company. Breakfast of bacon and eggs on a toasted muffin delicious. Highly recommend.

Delicious crab cakes and homemade bread with great service in beautiful surroundings. Do miss the gift selection they used to on sale though, hopefully this will be back soon, as will we!

Situated in a rambling garden centre, very rural with an orchard and hens running around. We have been there twice for coffee and cakes which were very nice. We understand the dinners are exceptional but as yet we have not had dinner there. View menu

I meet here every couple of months with a friend,and the last two visits have been awful but we decided to give the restaurant another go,well it has not improved a very limited menu and the risotto was stodgy and under cooked,such a shame.

I had a delightful cake from this idyllic restaurant. So good to have a menu full of seasonal produce, lots of which is apparently locally sourced. The room is tastefully decorated and surrounded by the beautiful plant nursery. The service good and a lovely time was had by all. Definitely will go back again: the sooner the better!

Why anyone would choose to call a cafe Tickety Boo is beyond me but the food is good and you don't eat the name! Very strange and off putting style where they take your money before you eat which meant we didn't order any cake after our meal as we couldn't be bothered to queue and pay all over again. None of the diners I've seen in here look like the type that would run off without paying! Despite this the food really was excellent and I will be back for more. View menu

Oh dear...what a disappointment. It is a few years since we last had a meal here, and in the interim the standard has changed. The menu would have you believe that there is a good choice of meals available, but, what it doesn't say is that the roast meats are in the fridge and will be flash heated....similarly with the rosated vegetables. The cake selection was still as we remembered....good, as was the service. The area between the car park and the Orchard Room looked sad and in need of attention.

I visited The Orchard Room today with my mum, we were surprised to see how the garden area was all overgrown and just looked a mess! I know it is September but people are still visiting so needs a bit of a tidy up! The breakfast menu is very limited and overpriced for what you get! need to drop the prices a little, Egg and Bacon Muffin about £5.40 and you get one muffin with one slice of bacon and two eggs which they get from their chickens, so they make a good £4.50 profit ! Suffolk Water park get their produce locally and it is always fresh and you can get a full english big breakfast with tea or coffee for £6.50! no contest really !

Summary ..... nothing is too much trouble for the staff at The Orchard Room.I took my son, daughter in law and two of my grandchildren there today for lunch.My son and daughter in law had never been there before and I think they wondered why on earth I felt there was somewhere nice to go in Thurston for lunch! However, they were very very pleasantly surprised and thoroughly enjoyed themselves.We all enjoyed brilliant service from the staff team and fantastic freshly prepared food. We have absolutely nothing negative to say about our experience. The environment is perfect ... lovely views out into the orchard with the chickens, warm, comfortable, calm and relaxing.We enjoyed a very leisurely... View menu
