REVIEWS OF Theobalds Restaurant
Attila (27 August 2010)
Really satisfied, went to Theobalds to celebrate my wife’s birthday. The food was of five star quality, the staff was really helpful and kind. It is a quite little restaurant, ideal for couples and families. The only thing I was missing was some kind of background music.
AKC (13 November 2007)
We've been to Theobalds several times and always had an excellent meal. It's very homely, yet formal. Typically one will have a pre-dinner drink at the fireside and choose from the menu before being shown to your table. Service has a family feel with young ladies from the village as waitresses. It's the food that's the main event though. Simon is a brilliant chef. The food is fresh and all homemade including the bread rolls and the ice cream. The menus are tasty and imaginative. My only problem is that we moved further away, to Ipswich, so can't get back there so often. It’s always in our minds for a special occasion though.
