The Plough Inn

Visited in August after visiting the area for a number of years and never seeing this place open, so this year we had to go in when we noticed it open. So glad we did, Maxine and Carl were so welcoming, service was spot on, the place was absolutely spotlessly clean, the locals really friendly and atmosphere was great. We had breakfast cooked by Maxine and it was absolutely amazing, fresh, delicious and such good value for money. It became our local for the holiday and can’t wait to return in July.

We found this little pub whilst lost on the way to a campsite. Such a warm friendly welcome and so helpful in advising us how to get to our destination. We came back another day for food and a desperate plea to charge a phone. Again the best welcome and service from staff, and friendly locals. Lovely classic pub food and nice selection of beer, and also dog friendly. Will definately be back when we are next in the area. Thank you Sutton Plough!

We needed a venue for light refreshments following the funeral of Flo my mother-in -law who lived in Shottisham. From start to finish we were offered a clear welcome, affordable menu within what we asked for that was both delicious and well presented. All our guests commented on how nice the buffet was. Thanks to the Maxine & the Plough team, we would happily recommend your pub, based on our experience today.

We had Sunday roast lunch. It was served carvery style with a choice of beef or gammon. There were seven choices of vegetables, all perfectly cooked, noting especially the caramelised carrots and the creamy cauliflower cheese. The roast potatoes and gravy were both super tasty and as good as I’d make at home. In short, it was a fantastic meal and only two of us managed pudding which was also home made (crumble). The service was really friendly and personal. Although we had to wait for the carvery to be refreshed that wasn’t a problem. It was one of the best Sunday roasts I’ve eaten anywhere and reasonably priced at £13.95. The decor is the only thing that lets the place down - it’s oddly plain and characterless with some bizarre and cheap looking artwork. But don’t let it put you off - more than made up for by the lovely staff and amazing food.

We went to the plough on the spur of the moment, and very glad we did. It is very different to the last time we visited (about 12 months ago), the landlady has clearly made a very big impact on the place, it's much cleaner and brighter and a lovely friendly welcome. The menu is classic good home cooked food with a few twists which makes a nice change from some 'Gastro Pubs'. We enjoyed our meal and look forward to returning as soon as we can.

Really lovely homely place, been twice now for food and both times meals were great, had fish and chips and chicken burger. Good portions. Dog friendly which is a bonus. This pub has new owners, they are really welcoming and really accommodating. If you’re in the area, want a drink and decent pub grub then this is the place. You won’t be disappointed.

We were really impressed with this pub! Real independent pub feel, lovely down-to-earth staff and the food was really impressive and great value, 100% will go again when I'm up this way. I had a burger which was the best seasoned burger I've had while out in a long time. Chefs are definitely doing a lot right! Plus served Icebreaker on tap which is my #1 favourite ale 👌🏻
