REVIEWS OF Pea Porridge
hirst (8 October 2011)
Nice room and friendly staff---the only vegetarian option available to my partner was a vegetable lasagne which was microwaved within a inch of its life ---not much imagination or effort there. Nice fish but served in a soup bowl---would have mashed it all up if it hadn't had clam shells in it---- wine --usual mark up---£20 for a cash and carry type vino. overall --not impressed with what I had but maybe they are better with meat and game dishes. Hope so---

Well, what can I say? This place is utterly fantastic, a real gem in Bury St Edmunds crown. As a localite, I have never been here before, but came for my 30th birthday meal with family and it was brilliant. The food was flavoursome or ‘flavourful' as it is now called, with every mouthful. I had two courses from a very extensive menu. The menu is complex but even the fussiest pallets were satisfied! I had snail and bone marrow for starters followed by t-bone veal with cannellini beans and shiitake mushrooms. Great taste, service, atmosphere and value - this is fine dining without the ridiculous price! £40 for two courses and a couple of beers on a special occasion is superb! Bravo!
