The Gainsborough Pub Sudbury

There were 9 of us, most had roast dinners, but there wasn't much on the rest of the menu for the others to eat, they were very short staffed and run of there feet... On the whole, we were disappointed with the service. Will not be going there again... Price per person: £20–30 Food: 3 Service: 1 Atmosphere: 3

Really was less than average and not a good experience. To start with customer service left a lot to be desired. Tricky to get bar staff attention considering it was not a busy bar. First beer was flat. Second beer had to be repoured as it had a shot glass floating in it! we ordered burgers for dinner. No cutlery given with this had to wait a fair time to be given it and had to ask the bar staff. I ordered a halloumi burger with chilli jam. it came without the chilli jam and none of the burgers were served with gerkins/jalapeño and relish as stated on the menu. I asked for the chilli jam to be told there wasn't any. I did say it would have been nice to have been told this when ordering. The chips on one of the burgers were actually spilt over me when served, no offer to replace this portion at all just carried on serving. The burger buns were very hard. We did tell the waitress after we had eaten it was very less than average. and were told they would pass this to the chef! Very disappointed!

Our first visit to The Gainsborough and we weren't disappointed! Very friendly service and a good selection of ales...I was really pleased to find one of my favourite beers, Woodfordes Wherry available. We both ordered the roast chicken which was beautifully tender and served with a great selection of seasonal veg (more than we could manage! . The prices are incredibly reasonable and the atmosphere is laid back and welcoming. We look forward to returning soon! Price per person: £20–30 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5
