221b - Suffolk Coastal

A bit less pretentious and showy than places in the square but good basic fare at reasonable prices. Great coffee. Bacon roll is colossal. Fab doughnuts. Can't really understand the reviews that say the staff are poorly trained or unfriendly. They aren't gushy or have-a-nice-day ish but I go in regularly and find them welcoming and helpful. Very good WiFi as well.

No longer cycle friendly as no place to store bikes. Notice now asks for them to be stored across the street which is clearly unsuitable. Sadly had to ride past and find a more suitable cafe in the town square.

Does What Suffolk Does Best Heart Warming in Framlingham 5* If <3 delicious coffee, mouth-watering home–baked cakes biccies , sweet and savoury pastries and great service – you really do not need to look further Location: 211 Bakery IP13 9DR

Small Framlingham Bakery and cafe but the young untrained staff continue to be unfriendly and lack customer service skills. The whole cafe area could do with a deep clean and the cheap tea bag was weak and overpriced. Better more friendly places in Fram to visit.

We 'd heard good things about this 'artisan bakery ' so decided to give it a go, and opted for a chocolate éclair and an apple turnover with cream £2.80 each, to go). The first thing we realised is the weight; these certainly were heavier than anticipated. But, they looked good, so now to taste... The éclair choux pastry was crispy but let down by waxy cream filling and bland chocolate topping. There was little sweetness to this cake. Thr apple turnover was truly awful: pastry which should be light, flaky and sweet was thick and soggy we found it inedible! The cream filling was waxy and the apple tartan and meagre. We couldn 't eat it. We were looking forward to some sweet treats, so were hugely disappointed. Take a look at the pics and make your own mind up. We won 't be visiting again!
