The Beagle - Table reservation

I have just returned from a terrible meal at the beagle nr sproughton, Ipswich. To start we had a bread dipping starter, unfortuantely the bread was stale, we then waited for quite some time for our mains. my boyfriend ordered a traditional beef roast, and I ordered the sirloin steak. unfortunately for the roast, the carrots were hardly cooked, and the yorkshires were not home made, but frozen ones that came out a bit tough, for the price of £10 it was a terrible effort. for the steak, at £14 the steak was tough and chewy and seriously burnt on the outside and still bleeding on the inside when i had asked for it to be cooked so that no blood was coming out of it, they forgot the onion rings...

We were staying at the Premier Inn, which has no restaurant attached. This was our first time at The Beagle we had planned to drive into Ipswich for pizza but it was such a beautiful afternoon we choose to sit outside, order a bottle of wine and enjoy the sunshine. Then we had cocktails, which were really good. All ordered via an app so no need to go inside and miss a minute of sunshine! We decided to book a table online and had a fantastic meal. Best decision of the weekend. Everything was great the ambience, the setting, all the staff, and the menu plenty of choice and not too pricey. We will definitely return.

Perfect for when you want something other than the usual chain-restaurant fare without having to venture too far out of the town centre. Cosy and snug in winter with nooks, crannies and beams aplenty but yet surprisingly cosmopolitan and continental in summer with the outside dining area. The Beagle is one of those places where you need to leave an extra 15 minutes for narrowing down your choice from an extensive menu ... I'm pretty sure it's the LAW that you try the sharing platter with the baked brie for starters!

A pub up to normal pub standard average food, good beer and the minimum number of staff. The upside is that they do have plenty of parking and the food (when you finally get it) is not to bad. I really like the fish cakes and their salads are not to bad either. They operate the very popular but sometimes confusing spoon system when ordering food. The main problem with this is when food are ready and who knows where the spoon who it belongs to are located. Summed up its off the beaten track but average food.
