The best restaurants serving British food in Mid Suffolk East of England

Delicious pie last night and Christmas Eve spirit included!!

Had a roast very grissely and fatty veg was hard and Luke warm food ,no follow up asking if we were happy with meal

We went for a roast on Sunday afternoon and it was fantastic..service was brilliant, food arrived quickly and was delicious. The young girl serving us was very professional It was our first time and won't be our last.

Best Chippy in the stowmarket area! After trying a few, no one comes close. Chips are always perfectly cooked, you can ask for a box to avoid paper wrap. Prices are pretty good and the staff are always welcoming. The place is clean and there are around 4 spaces for cars just outside or you can park at the petrol station. Fish and battered sausages are always crispy, well seasoned and not extremely greasy. Two can eat for under £15.

A fab hotel with great staff, lovely big room and huge shower. All you need in the room for a very comfortable stay and dog friendly too. Bar/restaurant very cosy and food superb dinner and breakfast. If staying in this next of the woods consider this place. If you have a dog it’s ideal with a one acre garden.

just what we wanted 10/10 food in chilled atmosphere

My friends and I ate here last night. We all had the Christmas dinner and it was the best Christmas dinner I have ever had at a pub. It was generous, tasty, and served hot and beautifully presented. Thankyou to all the staff that work here - you’re doing a fantastic job.

Had one of the best roasts that I have had out this year. My partner had the steak pie, which was also plentiful, tasty and well presented. Will certainly be returning with my family.

disgusting filthy place, dont visit, third room we had to accept, didn't stay the second night, bar area, rooms all tatty, they say its going to be refurbished next year, it wants closing down now at least till this work has carried out.

Love it there always get great friendly service and a delicious panini and the coleslaw is all home made and fresh on the day, chilli jackets lovely,as is the prawn one, best poached eggs on toast, & delicious choice of fresh scones.. always leave them a little thank u note, perfect for a lovely earl grey and a snack while watching the world go by or meeting with a friend.. couldn't wait for them to re open again after lockdown...

True taste of Thailand totally blown away with the food , close your eyes it's the same as when visiting Thailand, not for people in a hurry,but great who want the real thing and lots of it as the portions were large enough to have a tsk away box , I've tried many in mid suffolk food 10/10 locations 8/10 dining room 8/10 staff 8/10 albeit the chef brought our food out personally (nice touch) need to book for satisfaction

Stopped on our way home, and even though food was just finishing, they still took us in and cooked roast dinners for us all. The food was absolutely amazing too! Generous portions and really tasty, one of the best roasts I've had in a restaurant.

I'm not usually one for reviews but after seeing some of the negative reviews, I feel I need to leap to the oakmere's defense. I have stayed here quite a few times now as my head office is close by to the hotel this is pound for pound a superb hotel, the staff are always friendly the food is always great and the rooms are exceptional, the negative reviews are a bit odd. Perhaps they were expecting the Ritz or Savoy?? if you want warm comfy rooms with a very nice restaurant for sub £130 then you wont get better and I travel a lot, i have paid this much for a premier Inn before and that doesn't get you much!
