In September 2021, RichardAPWoods said about The Secret Garden Cafe, Wine Bar & Restaurant
WELL, this was a our third visit and once again the Garden exceeded expectations. This time it was for breakfast - of homemade croissant filled with wonderful cheese and suffolk cured ham - utterly blissful.
Other than in France or Italy I have not had croissant this good. Light, buttery, crumbly perfection.. Filled with strong and juicy cheese(s - I reckon two or three varieties) and excellent ham.No surprise that we then gorged on an almond croissant which induced dreams of a particularly fine patisserie in Ambois on the Loire river.
The machiato coffees were as excellent as ever.Last visit was for lunch and exceptionally good it was.
And the building is an utter joy. The oldest bits are 15th century but the main structure looks 18th adjusted 17th century. It offers three entirely different dining areas - a front of house 'bistro;' a rear dining room and the most idyllic and of course eponymous garden, protected on all sides and overhead too with a continental style pair of 'sails' of prodigious size, total rain resistance but only about 60% solar protection to you remain dry, warmed and bright.I would very strongly recommend a detour to Sudbury and the Secret Garden.
They also have an interesting a la carte evening menu which we shall sample soon.
