We enjoyed our return trip to your restaurant A shame that so few people are aware of this little gem as a full restaurant would create a warmer atmosphere. We look forward to our next trip and will let others know where to get a great lunch at a very reasonable price Thank you again Paöla Hewins

The staff were very attentive and service was very prompt. I had the fish and chips which were the best that I have had at Sudbury House. My friend had the steak, which although was cooked a little more than the requested rare, was excellent and the pink peppercorn sauce was very delicious. Sadly we were too full to have a dessert. which was a shame because the choice was very tempting, next time hopefully! I live very locally and value having such a lovely place to eat out within walking distance of home.

Slightly lack-lustre but surprisingly comprehensive wine list and very pleasant staff. I'm sure that there is more atmosphere in the dining room during the day but it doesn't really lend itself to an evening.

Lovely food with a reasonable balance of meat and vegetables quite rare these days. The food was also beautifully presented. The staff were efficient and competent but at the same time pleasant friendly and cheerful especially the young waitresses who served us.
