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.

                  Excellent food and wine, my only small comment was that occassionly it took a while for our wine to be topped up as the bottle was not left at the table. Otherwise the food and service was excellent

                  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
