East Anglia Restaurant Guide

Anchor Inn

The Anchor is idyllically situated on the picturesque banks of the River Stour, overlooking the pub's kitchen garden and fields where their own animals graze. With room for fifty people dining downstairs in the pub, plus upstairs in the restaurant, seating a further fifty customers, or outside either on the terrace or on the benches along the river, both accommodating another thirty, the Anchor has a place for everyone.

Anchor Inn, The

The Anchor Inn sits just down the road from an elegant hotel and restaurant reviewed elsewhere in this guide, and could be described in the nicest possible way as the other end of the market. Both are excellent in their own manner, you take your choice.

Angel Inn

When about to write this piece I thought it might be appropriate to commence something like, "should anybody out there be about to start writing a book on eccentric pubs, they might do a lot worse than to list The Angel at Larling".

Ark

Aficionados of this excellent establishment will be sad to know that the onset of the years is resulting in the Kidds reducing their activities, though residents and those who book rooms will still be able to enjoy the straightforward unfussy cuisine.

Artista Restaurant & Pizzeria

A fairly recent opening in Ipswich, said to be the second oldest settlement in UK, Artista is bringing healthy Italian food to a part of the country which is already pretty well blessed with the English variety, but no matter, in these egalitarian times let's get on and enjoy whatever is on offer.

• Cuisine(s): Italian, Pizza & Pasta, Seafood
• Avg. Cost Per Head Lunch: £12.00, Dinner: £22.00

Arts Restaurant, The

Venue should fill a gap in Cambridge, one that badly needs filling, yet initial promise does not seem to have stood the test of time. One explanation may be that they are simply trying too hard. The food is potentially good but often does not quite seem to hit the mark.

• Cuisine(s): Modern European
• Avg. Cost Per Head Lunch: N/A, Dinner: £30.00

ASK - Billericay

For some time I made the mistake of thinking that no group of restaurants in the region of 200 locations could hope to maintain the quality for which I was looking. Then one day I decided to put my prejudices to the test, walked into Oxford Ask! and discovered that I could not have been more mistaken.
