The Brook Inn

First time going and will definitely be going back. Can 100% back the great reviews. The younger guy serving was absolutely brilliant and everything was spot on, food, drinks, service. Literally couldn't fault it. Beef, mushroom and truffle oil pie of the day was amazing and such generous portions and more importantly, generous amounts of gravy!!

Toilets were also so clean which wouldn't usually be a factor for me but they were so clean I had to mention! Will definitely be coming back!

Thoroughly good "pub grub" type food at good prices.

Was very handy that we could bring our dog into the snug area.

Good Comms from the waiting staff, we knew there was going to be a wait as they were busy. This was explained to us and we were kept up to date

Never been here before but was looking for a central place for friends to meet up between our locations! What an absolute find! The staff were welcoming and friendly, went above and beyond to accommodate food intolerances and were attentive and lovely! The chef (s) need to be congratulated! The Christmas lunch menu delivered on every level. It was delicious, flavoursome and the portions were so large.
We were all so impressed by The Brook Inn that we’ve adopted it as our new favourite place to meet, the ambience and the whole experience was a delight!

Lovely community pub. Dog friendly, welcoming establishment, esp. for this nomad staying a ten minute walk away. Excellent ales. Very welcoming. Caught their real ales (4) over 3 visits in a week just as one was finishing and a new guest ale was coming on tap (so I caught a glimpse into how that process manifests in the glass). Both were Woodforde brews, the latter a seasonal Tinsel Toes. The Volt it replaced had been complex and interesting, if showing its age. Tinsel Toes was especially fresh and wonderful. I also sampled the (in)famous Adams Ghost Ship and Southwold. Both were fine but the guests beers hit the mark for me. Food is lauded by locals. I have not tried any here.

Really lovely meal. Burger and pork belly passed chocolate lab testing!!! We'll be back for sure.

It was the first visit for my wife and myself, as l am celiac they catered for me brilliantly, near all the dishes can be adapted to fit my needs, my wife really enjoyed her 3 meat roast and almost finished it, the first but certainly not the last visit by us.
The 2 ladies sitting next to us told us about uncooked potatoes and that they will be putting in a terrible review, when l asked about the rest of the meal they said oh no that was fine but felt a bad review was worth putting in because a couple of potatoes in their view weren’t cooked enough, l have to say my wife didn’t have a problem with her meal, so if you see a bad review instead of thinking l’ll give that a miss then go along and make your own mind up, you’ll then realise how good a place it is and l bet you’ll go back again, just like we’re going to do.

Lovely meal here today. Staff and food were both brilliant. They explained that there'd be a wait for food and it wasn't too long, but we didn't mind as they'd mentioned it earlier. Very scrummy!

I can not recommend this place enough. My go-to place to eat.
*****If you have specific Dietry needs, then this is your new must visit place***** Honestly worth EVERY penny.

The staff are fantastic.
My only Advice is to book or you'll be Disappointed if you don't get in.

Very lovely place, the food is beautiful and I can get so many gluten free meals, it is amazing.

Great food. Lovely atmosphere. Good service with a smile. Just ashame they use sauce sachets.

Had a lovely dinner here over Easter, amazing selection of gluten and dairy free options, I can't wait to come back! Food and service was fantastic.

Food is excellent and most things on the menu can be tailored for people with DF and GF allergies. Highly recommended

Great food, casual atmosphere and comfortable (exactly what we love). After the panto a wonderful find for food and laughter with friends and family. Also dog friendly.

WOAH! Okay... grab the attention, I've been here twice, the first time was ok. The second by accident, I booked my wife's birthday meal for her and the family. Purely on the basis that they had pork belly. Then realised we had been there before and it was a bit hit or miss, but it was around a year ago that I'd been there before.

Got there today and it was fairly busy, which is not my kind of atmosphere but some people like that so I've given it a 5/5
for atmosphere. The table layout is such that you don't feel like you're eating with the table next to you which is great. Even for a table of 5.

Lets move on to food as thats the main deal here people. WOW. I think they've got Gordon Ramsay Jr in the kitchen as you can hear this guy bark orders with the waitresses telling him to shh. But thats my kind of chef, clearly
passionate with high standards. Thats a good sign. One of us ordered the steak and it was all consumed which is a clear sign the steak was perfect. I recently had a tooth out, and scoffed the ham egg and chips which was great. My wife had the pork belly and she said it was lovely with the 'perfect' amount of gravy. She is a gravy connoisseur.

Lastly customer service was great, it was busy but they were attentive. I forgot to tip and I wish I had so I apologise. They asked once how the food was, aswell as asking if the steak was cooked to order which was a new one on me. Proactive not reactive! A great one. They even interuppted by saying...'sorry to interuppt' which i think is extremely well trained and polite (waiting?)

(Boring bits... they also cater gluten free, dairy free, nut free and vegan. Good selection of food, plenty of parking round the back but it does get busy so you might have to carefully park in the middle. Easy to find)

Bottom line is a 10/10 pub, in my opinion. In the words of the austrian oak...

I'LL BE BACK.

Popped in for lunch , lovely as always great service from a new member of staff ( well new to me) drinks served at table in the patio area and dog offered a bowl of water. Please support this pub the best you can .

Popped in on circular walk.
Only had a starter and pint but service and outdoor setup was great.
The mains coming out of the kitchen looked amazing so will definitely be heading back here soon.

Lovely welcoming pub. Fantastic food and service. Can’t wait to visit again!

Great place for food, a warm, welcoming, lovely atmosphere and a great outside to enjoy a lovely coffee. Heaters as well. Looking forward to my next visit for a Christmas 🎄 menu.

Nice to find a place to eat with lots of Gluten Free options that taste amazing, the Cheescake was delicious! Friendly, efficient service as well.

A big thank you to the team at The Brook Inn this afternoon the service and food was absolutely fabulous. We were made very welcome , with unexpected family arriving too you made room for all of us in the barn area which was very warm and cosy. Highly recommended. Thank you
