The food at the Secret Garden is consistently superb. We tend to go for dinner (only open for dinner Friday and Saturday) where there is a fixed price menu with only a few choices for each course plus some specials for the day. However, the limited choice here is amply compensated for by the quality of the cuisine and the freshness of the ingredients. The wine list is exclusively French with some excellent value wines. Service is friendly and attentive. The best restaurant in Sudbury by a country mile!

You will not be disappointed if you visit. Limited menu, but all delicious. Usually pop in for lunch after having a wander around Sudbury and I always feel I have been transported back to France. Lovely ambiance, staff friendly and helpful.
The garden is a lovely area to sit out when the sun is shining.

Been here several times and have loved every meal, all homemade and using fresh local produce, they grow their own herbs, tomatoes etc in the courtyard garden, which is beautiful in the summer months. The staff are always friendly and service is always prompt. I would recommend this for a yummy lunch, the only thing I would say is that it can be pricey for some dishes, but perfect for a treat and cannot fault the food at all!

We had the specials of the day menu and between us tried each of the options on the three courses. Each showed evidence of a real care for ingredients and flair in putting them together. The apple and pumpkin pie (made to the proprietor's mother's recipe) stood out, but no dishes disappointed. There was a pleasant and attentive atmosphere and it was astonishingly good value for money. It made us wish we lived in Sudbury. Highly recommended.

Went here back in late August for a lunch with a friend. We had the fish cakes with samphire. Very tasty but felt a little rushed, as we had said no to a pudding felt that in that case they wanted us to leave ASAP.
Will give it another go though as food was very tasty.

I had just come to the conclusion that restaurants in Sudbury were rather underwhelming, and then i stopped for a coffee at teh secret garden in Friars Street, Fabulous really friendly, great food lovely log fire and quick and efficient service no wonder it gets busy at peak times.
Well done to the secret garden a great find, i know where i will be heading next time I am in Sudbury.

We come here a few times a year . This time we came with friends and enjoyed the Christmas menu. Everything was beautifully prepared and presented and was good value. The proprietor is a charming French man who makes you very welcome. Try it for something different.

Shared an extremely tasty lunch here with my girlfriend. The menu consists of a selection of staples with the addition of a small selection of seasonal specials, which I assume changes regularly. Both meals were highly flavored and in good portion sizes. The "two courses" option from the specials board brings better value and offers a selection of very appealing, freshly made desserts. The staff were very attentive and friendly, but perhaps the decor and furnishings were a little too basic. Will definitely return.

Living in France most of the year, we were delighted to find The Secret Garden.
What a joy to find such wonderful food & exceptional wines, together with home- made sour doughbread.
The small fixed price menu, together with daily 'specials' is what most restaurants have in France,ensuring freshly cooked ingredients .
The food was simply delicious , perfectly cooked & the cheeses were exceptional & all servedAt the correct consistency.
This restaurant will never disappoint.
