What a mistake that was it was a disaster. We had gone on a family trip with the kids in tow and as we entered the parking area a couple came out saying don't bother, you'll have to wait 2 hours to eat! This should have told us everything but no like fools we still went in and sat down on one of the new tables with it's own TV (posh hey), only to be told to move as children can't sit at these tables (nice hey, the kid's are now wound up). Then we queued to place our food order, after waiting and hearing the manager (who was taking the order's) telling a bunch of collage kid's who were placing orders on a large table that they couldn't order separately and had to pay in one go (like they could afford to do that, they were ringing and checking there card balances)! When I eventually got served 30 Min's later I was told hang on your number is not on my list, go back to your table and you can order when I send someone over to say so, no sorry no explanation I was so shocked. My husband was all ready to go after we had finished our drinks when they came over and said you can order now, we said forget it. they explained there had been a power cut and they were busier then expected. We explained that that was not a good enough reason to be so rude and left. We have never gone back and never will! We drove to the swallow further down the road who had been gaining all the customers the Thrasher had lost, they said the line about the power cut was rubbish as they were on the same network and had no problems!

Great location - on the dock road, which is extremely quiet - and has a lovely view of Ipswich…read moremarina. The Bistro is an old, tastefull converted dock building that was one of the first in the renovation of the Ipswich dock area. The food is modern british with continental overtones. There is plenty of choice of both fish, meat and veggie dishes so there should be something to please most palettes. There is also an extensive wine list. My wife has a particular liking for their pint of shell-on prawns served with garlic mayo and thick, crusty brown bread - as a starter. The prices are not too expensive, but the food is very good and I think it represents good value. A word of warning - the one downside of the Bistro is that you have to book well in advance. This is even more true in summer when the yachties tend to be in town. Overall very nice place, good food - can be very romantic (if you are that way inclined) especially if you can get a sunset booking in summer.

Boat restaurant with stiff atmosphere. Prices are a bit high for the area but I'm on the Ipswich…read moremarina so clientele is not swaying away from more cost. Saying that a two course is under 30. Classy staff, but attention to service was lacking, charming being on a boat. Slightly romantic - only saying that as I'm on my own - but there are couples about. Ordered a fish soup. It was not what I expected. My idea of one is it's got chunks of fish. This one was a fishy purée. Not to my liking. Possibly something posh, possibly something not. Either way didn't finish it. Put it aside and for a bit seemed like the wait staff didn't want to deal. Eventually some poor chap approached me and asked if the plate sitting well beside me was ok to remove. I said yes and with a blank faced-look from him I was forced to say - not to my liking. Just got main small chicken breast stuffed. Not enough sauce and a bit dry. Oh dear not one I'll be coming back to.

The Ufford Crown does reliably good food, with a slightly longer menu than the Ramsholt. They fairly recently refurbished it, so the decor is now very smart but with a great atmosphere. Very family friendly, we have been here for Sunday lunch many times (whole family plus dog) and for date night dinners. Always a friendly service; another great pub we are lucky to have in the near neighbourhood. It is usually pretty busy so booking ahead at weekends probably a good idea.

I will gladly recommend the fish and chips if anyone is struggling to make their minds up, failing that order all of the deserts, and leave a stone heavier than when you walked in!
