Ben's, Bury St Edmunds - A very lovely setting in a clean and immaculate dining room. It is a…read morelittle pinky and girly but the interior has a feel of spring even though it was still wintery weather outside. Identical chandeliers and the organised mismatched furniture has a certain charm. The decoration was quite sparse; the kind of place where echoes were almost possible, so after awhile it made the place feel cold when there was no one else except us. If it was not a restaurant, I would have thought that it was a tea house. The cleanliness makes the place feel like a new establishment; clean open kitchen and nicely built bar area. It would be perfect if they had baby changing facilities as well. Ben's restaurant was started with a dream of a man who is concerned about the source of his food. With an acute entrepreneurial sense, he brought the restaurant, Ben's, alive. Ben's is a restaurant with it's own lifestock. The menu boasts the providence and quality of the ingredients. But Bury St Edmunds is in the countryside. So, apart from the chain restaurants, restaurants like this are sort of expected, isn't it? Taking pride of their ingredients, Ben's menu is hence very British. For example, sausage and mash is not just sausage and mash. It has additional accompaniment and a touch of finesse that lifts Ben's restaurant to quite a sophisticated eatery. The main has quite a large selection of meats; game, venison, beef, pork, lamb, fish - and the accompaniment and sauces is also tailored to each separate main. The amount of work in the kitchen, before and during service, must be extensive. On Sundays, it is traditional Sunday roast and pie of the day. Desserts are quite a list as well. roast beef GBP 14.95 - An enormous serving of beef, together with potatoes, yorkshire pudding, peas and a side of cauliflower cheese, served with gravy. The dish looked delicious, but unfortunately the meat, while not bad at all, was nothing special, and the cauliflower cheese was tasteless. salmon salad GBP 12.45 - this was a starter dish but they kindly upgraded it to a main dish portion. It had abundance of smoked salmon and the wasabi mousse was delicious perfect with the salmon. ginger cheesecake GBP 5.95 - very creamy, and not enough of that ginger, obviously home-made, but tasted as if it was mass produced. caramelised pear and spiced ginger sponge, with custard GBP 5.95 - texture was very light and the pudding was warm. However, the ginger bit needs to be a little more gutsy. trio of ice-cream GBP 4.95 - chocolate, elderflower with apple and tayberry. The flavours were very, very good but shame that there were just too many ice crystals in the ice-cream. It wasn't pleasant eating it. Service was very polite and friendly. The meal was very enjoyable but slightly expensive. Each plate was presented well. Mains and desserts came in generous portions. There are little things that could be improved and I thought overall, the meal was mediocre.

The dishes change based on what's available seasonally and it's always great. At lunch the sandwich and soup or salad combinations are always delicious and flavorful. I got duck almost every time it was on the menu and was always amazed with how perfectly it was cooked. We celebrated or engagement and wedding here. We came for dinner after all the craziness with the celebration was over and relaxed knowing we had a great meal coming our way. Every server is kind and helpful if you have any questions and they make amazing recommendations. I always recommend people eat here anytime they mention going to Bury.

The menu is very diverse and has many alternatives that I wanted to try. I am glad 5 of us went so we could share tastes and I'll report on the dishes I tasted. Grilled Squid in Chilli ... amazing, grilled to perfection (just cooked enough, not tough or dry). Crab Ravioli, OK but not exceptional. Lambs Kidneys on toast also amazing, great taste and consistency. Main plaice was fresh and delicious. Duck was cooked just right and not fatty at all, cherry sauce tasty. Steak was exceptionally good but the star of the meal was the rump of lamb which melted in the mouth. The service was very good and the restaurant has a good ambiance. Prices were very reasonable and would have been double in the capital. This really is excellent British food with the best ingredients and a very creative chef. To my taste it's a solid 5 star establishment. (In a very elegant country setting).

Not a great experience. The am since is OK.

The serving staff didn't really know what was being served from the menu. Not once was I asked how my meal was nor did any of the staff really seem to care. Probably won't return based on this experience as the food was not only below par BUT it was expensive. The saving grace was that the Chancellor picked up half of the tab :-)

They have a fairly large menu consisting mainly of different sandwiches and jacket potatoes, and the inside is decorated with fairly modern, upscale decor. The Bad - Expect to wait, and wait, and wait some more. They weren't very busy at all when I got there, and I had to just pick the only table that wasn't covered in dishes. They are not organized at all either, other people (who indeed waited a long time to get their food as well) started getting their food before I got mine, even though I had ordered a good 15 min before them. And now that I have sat here for an hour with no food in sight, I do believe I will be heading to the next restaurant in hopes I can get something to eat there. Wish me luck
