A restaurant that celebrates the splendour of British seafood and produce from local farms.

We are delighted to use the finest of local producers, farmers, and growers of the region. Seafood will always remain our focus. Oysters from Pinneys of Orford, fresh fish from Wightman based in Lowestoft, as well as meat from Salter & King in Aldeburgh, we are incredibly lucky to work with the best.

    Warm welcome as always from the front of house team. Great pre lunch cocktail. Food, really hard to choose from the menu, wanted to try everything. Wasn’t disappointed with our choice, was really delicious and beautifully presented from start to finish.

    We were treating guests from Marlow, who were very impressed at the Chef being from their home town's star Restaurant! The food, wine and service were all excellent; the team, expertly led by Ollie and Drew were attentive and friendly without overdoing it.

    Amazing place. Incredible food and while a little pricier than average, worth every penny. Will definitely make the effort to travel to Aldeburgh again for The Suffolk

    A friendly greeting and shown to our table with the menu and a detailed description of the food and wine. There is a pleasant buzz of guests enjoying themselves and the evening begins. The food was excellent with special mention to the steak tartar and the lobster. The wine, a recommendation, was superb. The staff were efficient and friendly with all the tables being well served. This is restaurant on top of it's game.

    Outstanding service and delicious food staff went above and beyond. The cod ceviche and cheese scone were delicious. The new menu offered a welcomed change and we thoroughly enjoyed our evening out and will be returning very shortly. Thank you the Suffolk :)

    1st time to this wonderful place, the service was spot on not too much they just ensured that everyting was my liking, The dressed crab, Roasted Cod and then the trifle were really good, could not fault the cooking in any way. For a Sunday night they were busy so booking in advance would be my suggestion
