The Guardian said:
"It is 'bright and cheerful'; log fires in the conservatory-style residents' lounge and public bar, open all day, which has real ale. 'Excellent' food served in 'bustling atmosphere' in the smart dining room."

"... knockout cooking..."

"... the dining room was gorgeous; high ceilinged, with pale green Regency-striped walls and a glorious golden wood floor... certainly a place to make an occasion special."

"... it was precisely cooked, smartly served and utterly delectable."

"... keeping the locals happy was obvious from the fact that all eight tables were filled, several by regulars dining happily... That bargain Set Lunch must be quite a draw."

"Excellent food, efficient but unhurried service and value for money are now the hallmark of this Suffolk country town establishment."

Daily Telegraph said:
"Whoopee - somewhere that is still about family virtues, rather than corporate values. Old-fashioned tranquil, with gleaming glass and comfy chairs.
Takes you back in time. Good value for money."

The Independent said:
"... the way country hotels used to be: modest, decent, clean and tranquil.... a sanctuary of civility."

"... eating very well for less than £20.00 per head...It was a snip for food of this accomplishment and a lunch of unalloyed pleasure."
