"Charming village eatery saved by locals."
Overview
Saved from dereliction by local village families, The Brewers Rattlesden is a grand old pub that’s now very much an eating place. There are several dining rooms, with wood tables, colourful padded chairs, a wood floor, exposed brickwork and original beams. The kitchen team deliver strong, memorable flavours using local produce.

About the area
Suffolk is Constable country, where the county’s crumbling, time-ravaged coastline spreads itself under wide skies to convey a wonderful sense of remoteness and solitude. Highly evocative and atmospheric, this is where rivers wind lazily to the sea and notorious 18th-century smugglers hid from the excise men
