Lovely quaint pub

We enjoyed our three night stay at Eels Foot Inn. The staff were very friendly and welcoming. Set in beautiful countryside but nearby to Aldeburgh and Southwold. Lovely generous breakfast included in our stay and a good choice of home cooked food available in the evening. Would definitely recommend.

Eels Foot

We have used this pub for over 40 years when visiting Minsmere and camping nearby. This year we decided to book a room for 3 nights, breakfast included. Breakfast was plentiful and served by cheerful staff. The evening pub meals offered plenty of choice. Our room was large with en suite and was comfortable
Patrick, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

It was great. The room wasn't ready for our arrival, but the proactive approach was very good: everything we needed to do could be done. Breakfast was delicious with an true friendly and enthusiastic service.

Michael, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Staff all helpful (though had no record of my booking when we arrived, despite me getting email confirmation from Expedia). Fortunately a room was available. Breakfast very good, evening meal typical pub choice. They don't take reservations for tables for evening meals and we were taken by surprise how crowded it was. A table did become available soon however.
Simon, 2-night trip

4/10 Fair

Over-Priced And A Bit Disappointing

Excellent food in the pub and very pleasant staff, very good location for Minsmere, but: floorboards in rooms creaked so constantly woken up when people in room above moved around; bath dangerously slippery and needed a shower mat; bathroom floor very dirty; shower head kept falling down as support was broken and the parts were lying in the bath. Over-priced for a rural pub B&B, and we won't be going back.
