Thanks to all of you for your support. We were runners-up to The Sibton White Horse in the Suffolk Food & Drink Awards 'Best Food Pub', alongside The Westleton Crown. Three more different pubs you could not hope to find but we all have one thing in common, and that is to offer you the very best of Suffolk!
Our kitchen has a great reputation for serving the 'bounty of the county' all of which has been freshly prepared by our highly experienced chef Adrian Newcombe. Our brasserie menu (Cannon Fodder) changes with the seasons and has starters and main dishes for all tastes and appetites and, if you are still ready for more, our home made puddings and British cheeseboard are definitely worth saving space for. There are at least three daily changing specials. For those with a smaller appetite, many of the most popular main courses are offered as a light main too.
There's always a choice for vegetarians and, as all the food is prepared from scratch, we can usually adapt dishes for special dietary requirements too.
For busy business types looking for a quick option at lunchtimes, we offer bar snacks including baguettes with mouth watering fillings or a cheese ploughman's alongside the full menu.
Our favourite dishes tend to be made with our own ales: locally reared Red Poll cattle from the Lavenham Heritage Herd are fed on our brewery's 'spent grains', beef and ale pie or beer battered fish are other examples and we're 'big on bangers'; our famous Gunner's Daughter sausages always feature on the menu, sometimes alongside Beef & Best Bitter bangers or Black Pig ale, wild boar & apple sausages.
Finally, don't forget our incredibly popular Asian 'twist': on the first Tuesday of each month we host a Thai banquet. This three course set meal is authentically cooked to perfection by our assistant chef Som, herself from Thailand. Her dishes often crop up on the daily specials board too: sour hot Thai beef salad, venison satay and thom yum soup are particular favourites. Booking is essential!
