Popped in for a bite to eat and they had a great value Salad and Sandwich for £7. Nice staff, even though they were very busy

Hartest is one of the prettiest villages in Suffolk. The pub has been 'done up' and serves very good food. Wines were good and the wine waiter knowledgeable. The roast beef was delicious and a large portion !! Good vegetables and served with gravy and roast potatoes. Another had pork and excellent crackling. Recommend the Rijoka wine Reserva.

Arrived on a Wednesday for my partners birthday. Six of us had drinks in the garden very pleasant. Pork scratching from behind the bar not good ! Very large lovely garden and a very nice pub but I think that's where it stops!
The pub was quiet. We ordered starters I had what was called Monkfish scampi to start. It was just like normal pub scampi, but a lot more money. We had a very long wait for our mains. I had pork belly which I found very dry. None of our mains came with veg so we had to order sides of veg and potatoes which I hate, I think a meal should come as a complete meal. I then had a pudding of a trio of chocolate desserts. This was £14 and a complete rip off. A good night but nothing to do with the food. Wont be returning.

Just a quick review, went after work for a few beers in the sun with a pal. Beautiful garden and excellent location. Can't comment on the food, but the menu looked decent. Lots of parking and friendly staff.

We have eaten here several times and cannot fault the food, but sadly the service on this occasion fell short of the mark. One of their sister establishments suffers from the same "The Cadogan" in Ingham . To wait 30 mins to receive a starter is not good service and the main course was the same. It would seem that these two establishments maybe just do not engage enough staff??

Visited for sunday lunch We arrived at 2.30pm and where shown a table in the corner by the window, and told the waiter would bring the menus. We ordered drinks at the bar at took them to our table and sat down and waited No menu or waiter so we went to the bar and asked for the menus, to be told that they had completely forgotten us....
We sat down and waited and waited,after 30mins feeling hungry and disgruntled I went to the bar and ordered our food. We both ordered the Pink Beef Roast, after another 15mins the food was arrived.This was to die for (delicious) this certainly helped to smooth our disgruntled feathers.
It was such a shame as this could have been such a better experience, as the staff where very friendly when they finally attended us.
On leaving the waiter apologised and said he would advise the manager.
Will be interesting to see if they follow through.

My daughter and I had an evening meal here on a weekday and enjoyed a great meal and good service. Our two dogs welcome in the dog friendly part of the pub and in fact there were quite a few dogs there. Our only comment would be that people going with their dogs should be with them at all times and not tie them up and then almost forget about them, particularly if those dogs have issues with other dogs! This sort of behaviour can mar your enjoyment and also gives other dog owners a bad press! Lovely garden where you can sit but of course this is somewhat spoilt by smokers. Look forward to returning though as the good is of excellent quality and a varied menu.
