About this restaurant

Good for special occasions
Romantic
Innovative

Our new Bar and Brasserie has been inspired by a modern desire to return to simple, 'back to basics' food, offering freshly prepared dishes, contemporary, informal surroundings and impeccable service. We hope the whole family will enjoy dining with us.

From fresh fish bought from Dean's Shed, situated on the beach opposite the White Lion, to smoked kippers sourced from Pinney's of Orford, every ingredient used in the exciting dishes which feature on the new menu, has been 'hand picked' to guarantee an abundance of flavours - Bon Appétit.

Beautiful location, good local produce thoughtfully cooked. The only thing we didn't much appreciate was the loud muzak in the bar. Not sure how many people come to historic and beautiful Aldeburgh for pop music!

The service was very poor, we were left ages with them asking if we wanted anymore drinks. No one came over and asked how the food was. We were totally ignored all night.

A fantastic place with a beautiful ambience . We had an amazing lunch with friends in New Year’s Eve as a treat and it certainly lived up to expectations . The food was delicious from a varied menu to suit all tastes . The staff were attentive and friendly. Would like to stay in the hotel next time

Busted for Sunday lunch and all four of us had a roast. Served very quickly and meal was hot and tasty with good variety of vegetables on the plate. Had to chase up drinks but once prompted they came soon. Always enjoy the white lion.

Good menu with something for everyone including children. Service a bit slow and a few mistakes made on drinks and food but quickly rectified. Friendly service and comfortable atmosphere. Good cocktail list.

It is a pity that the good food is overshadowed by sporadic service. It is not cheap, but the staff are thin on the ground and not properly trained.
