"The restaurant offers a fixed menu for lunch with options including soup, a main course, and dessert. All of the dishes looked delicious, but I decided on the bubble and squeak with savoy cabbage, beet, Jerusalem artichoke puree, and celeriac crisps. The portion size was just right for a satisfying lunch. The coffee was also very good. The staff were friendly and helpful. I also purchased some pastries and croissants to enjoy later, and they look delicious. The dining space is limited, but the wait was worth it for the quality of the food."

Long Melford Swan

"As you’d expect in Long Melford this pub is a jumble of rooms, all pleasantly presented. The rear patio and garden offers sunny and shady spots. Dog friendly. The Swan seems to be leaning towards a wine bar, bistro vibe most noticeable in the menu, which was sorely lacking in lighter options at lunchtime. Not a sandwich in sight and the only real contender, a chicken Caesar salad, was off. I’m not a fussy eater but struggled, eventually opting for a pleasant but unremarkable gazpacho. My wife went for a more substantial tuna dish which was very good. Presented with new potatoes, boiled egg and a mound of olives it was pleasant but too much for a light lunch. Service was friendly and smooth. Go there if you have a hearty appetite but there are plenty of alternatives nearby."

"Came in for tea and coffee, and ordered two glasses of water. Since the water came in a very small jug, we soon asked for a refill to which we were told that we can’t just order water by an elderly lady and heavy eyeshadow. That same lady came up to our table with the water and started explaining that it’s wrong of us to only order the water (although we also ordered tea and coffee) and told us she will have to charge us for the water and the ice… we did not at any point specify that we wanted tap water, so we were prepared to pay for it anyway. It was extremely embarrassing, as others were around. Perhaps our foreign accents have had something to do with it, either way it has left us very uncomfortable and upset at the condescending way we have been spoken to. All other staff were extremely lovely and polite, and even apologised for the altercation of the elderly woman."

Ballingdon Valley Indian Cuisine

"We arrived here by chance as we'd stayed in Sudbury previously and most of the pubs finish serving food early. On entering the premises, we were greeted by a happy smile. I explained that we didn't have a reservation and we were taken to a seat while the bookings were checked. I think the manager must have had a little bit of a sense of humour, as we were shown to a table, where he told us that due to the weather, (this was storm Babet), the restaurant had had 54 reservations cancelled, so there was plenty of room for us. We decided on what to order over a drink and waited with anticipation for our meal as we hadn't had an Indian meal from a restaurant for around six weeks and were looking forward to it. We ordered a vindaloo and a jalfreisi after our starters and we both agreed, it was one of the best curries we'd had in a long long time. We were informed by the manager that the previous Sunday, they had been awarded curry house of the year, which we had no idea about, but agreed, it came as no surprise. We would highly recommend the food here, it looks as though they pride themselves on their cleanliness as the tables are pristine, plates and cutlery spotless and decor contemporary. Staff were perfect hosts and we'll definitely be back to visit again in the future. Thank you very much for our meal."

"My neighbor, my two-year-old, and I visited Riverside Restaurant for the first time today to celebrate our anniversary. We arrived 10 minutes before opening but were warmly greeted and seated promptly with menus. Our drinks arrived quickly, and our food was served within 20 minutes. We both enjoyed perfectly cooked steak and delicious homemade chicken nuggets. Everything was excellent - from the atmosphere to the staff. Special thanks to Meelle, Danielle, and the talented chef who made our dining experience truly memorable, especially for our little one with a fantastic fruit salad. We had a wonderful lunch and will definitely return. Highly recommend! Thank you."
