The White Horse, Badingham

There’s a relaxed and unpretentious feeling about this beautiful 15th century venue with wet boots and dogs actively encouraged in the bar. After a long walk in the country, try one of their Artisan sandwiches and a pint of real ale or cider, both of which are championed here in this free house pub. Portions are plentiful, children are welcome, there’s a choice of three roast meats for Sunday lunch and the village bowl’s green is part of the pub grounds.

The Greyhound Inn

Head chef and co owner Louise makes everything from scratch including all the little added extras like soda bread and oatcakes for the cheese board. Local ingredients are given a Scottish flavour as a nod to her roots, so you’ll find Suffolk meats and cheeses sitting happily next to Cullen Skink and Scottish Gin Cured Salmon on the menu. Continuing the Scottish theme there’s a fine selection of malt whiskeys behind the bar and local beer features too from Adnams and Earl Soham breweries.

The Plough and Sail

With a cosy bar area, where dogs are welcome, a light and airy restaurant and outside seating for warm afternoons and balmy evenings, this is the perfect resting place after a walk around Snape Maltings. Owned by local twin brothers Alex and Oliver Burnside, who are the front of house manager and head chef respectively, they have a passion for great flavours, excellent customer service and local, seasonal food. Lunch and dinner are served daily with Sunday roasts a real treat.

Butley Oysterage

No frills just fresh fish and seafood is the trademark of Butley Oysterage. It doesn’t get any fresher than catching it yourself, which is exactly what they do with their two fishing boats. Cod, sprats, mackerel, lobsters, crabs, skate and herrings are all caught from sustainable sources in an environmentally friendly way and brought straight from the sea to the table daily. It’s their famous home grown oysters that are the star and makean ideal starter or indulgent light lunch.

The Turks Head

There’s a warm welcome for walkers here, especially those with dogs and the website even includes walking routes suitable for long muddy ramblers with the family and your pet. Relax after your walk with anything from a bar snack, lunch or dinner by the log fire. In summer months eat outside and soak up the Suffolk sunshine in the beautiful pub gardens with its garden Jenga and other games. There’s a big choice of dishes using local meat and fish, a kid’s menu and everything is homemade.

The Unruly Pig

Traditional beams and roaring log fires await you in this traditional 16th century pub and kitchen recently voted ‘Best Pub in Suffolk’. The Unruly Pig is all about relaxation and simple yet exquisite food. The fish and meat from the surrounding area are the influence behind the daily specials and if you have special dietary requirements then gluten, dairy free and vegetarian menus are always available. It’s all about the little, special details here with cocktails for drivers and homemade cordials and specially selected wines of the month.

The Crown & Castle

Co-owned by the Watsons, renowned independent hoteliers, this restaurant with rooms offers a great level of service and a well-thought-out wine list. The authentic British and Italian-inspired menus feature locally sourced produce such as Sutton Hoo chicken, Dingley Dell pork, Pump Street bakery’s artisan sourdough and Orford-landed fish. They don’t accommodate parties larger than 10 people and while there’s a small bar area this is certainly not a pub.
