The Lindsey Rose - Babergh

We were passing through on a drive from Ipswich to Canterbury and stopped by for lunch. There was a garden party BBQ and we ordered BBQ chicken wings and dirty fries. The chicken wings were deep fried and then bbq sauce added on top which is not quite what we expected of a bbq party. There were no burgers or salads. Also, with it being a pub, we were surprised that only beer, gin and vodka was being served no rose wine or bourbons.

Beautiful location and a very nice pub. Large amount of tables inside and outside. The service was excellent. The staff were great. The food was good! All round winner!

Cycled to this lovely pub from Dedham for lunch. We were greeted promptly by incredibly friendly, welcoming staff. Was very impressed by the choice and prices on the menu. We ordered the Halloumi fries, whipped feta with warm honey on toasted brioche and the pea and asparagus gnocchi. Food arrived promptly. It was absolutely delicious and we were not disappointed with the portion size at all. I cook a lot at home and was very impressed by the quality and presentation of the food. We eat out quite frequently locally and can honestly say this is the best food we have had in a very long time. We will definitely be returning.

Lovely location and been here for a drink a couple of times and thought we'd try it for dinner. Good service but let down by the food. Starters were OK, for main course I had pan fried cod, small portion of fish and veg was a few overcooked green beans with about 6 very small potatoes. Partner had Caesar's salad which tasted nice but was just chicken, lettuce, a little cheese and dressing. Shame as not sure we'll back for food.

Just back from a lovely Sunday lunch at the Lindsey Rose . Great pub great staff and great food! Will be back soon highly recommended!!
