Eating out in Ipswich, Colchester and East Bergholt area
Posted by Ann on 13/8/2009
GF board
I live in this area …
Cafe Nero have a gf menu - not been there so can't comment further. The White Horse at Tattingstone - mid way between Colchester and Ipswich - owner is coeliac and they mark their menu board with crossed grain symbol. The Acton Crown - Sudbury - wife of owner coeliac.
The Thatchers Arms at Bures - rural pub just outside Colchester.
The Lemon Tree in Colchester town centre - will serve gf bread with your meal.
The George Hotel, Colchester &
The Old Seige House, Colchester
Last time we checked both the above cook from scratch and have a good understanding of providing for gf diet.
The Barn Brasserie at Great Tey can be hit and miss - they tend to have a high turn around of chefs and while I have found some to have high levels of understanding others have had little - despite there being gf options on the menu - so ringing in advance and quizzing the staff in depth is recommended.
