We are staying in Suffolk for a few weeks and would love some suggestions of places to eat out with DS. But also will have inlaws available to babysit for a few days so would like to make the most of the freedom to go out to eat just me & DP. Any recommendations please?

Are you anywhere near Nayland? Several excellent foodie pubs there.

we will be in Woodbridge - I don't know where Nayland is. DS is just 3 but is very used to eating out. He doesn't need it to be really kiddie for him but more that I won't feel that he is out of place iykwim!

The Red Lion at MARTLESHAM does a good carvery.

The Black tiles also at MARTLESHAM.

Avoid The Seal in Woodbridge unless you like frozen lasagne.

The Dog at Grundisburgh,also second the Black Tiles,also the Maybush at waldringfield and the pub at Glemham,can't remember name will ask tomorrow at work.Aldeburgh good for day out and the Brudenell is very family friendly for Sunday lunch with proper food in childrens portions.

Wilford bridge can be a bit dodgy I have heard.Kings Head in Woodbrdige very good but garden not very family friendly ,Wild Strawberry cafe on market hill good and very family friendly ..do boiled egg and soldiers in the morning..the owner has young children

Oh eating out on your own try the Spice Bar in the Thoroughfare in Woodbridge ,also the Riverside for Tapas at lunchtime and they do film and dinner which is fun...only cinema I know where you can take a drink in ,Woodbridge is a very civilised place!Also Galley on market Hill good espoecially the turkish rice pudding but a bit expensive.

The Victoria and the other pub I can't remember the name of at Felixstowe Ferry (the old nice part of Felixstowe v nice too, and I second the Maybush.
Also new restaurant in The Crown Hotel in Framlingham supposed to be good.

I don't get it......
Crowfield?
Campsea Ashe?
You have to be specific with wierdos, they need the actual postal address. Just putting the town/village name is safe. IMO.
