We came across this gem of a place on a trip to Southwold. We were looking for lunch. We were greeted by very pleasant staff and given a warm welcome. Wide choice of food on the menu, we opted for the seafood linguine. Everything was fresh and delicious. Full of fresh mussels, clams, cockles, shrimp, samphire. Highly recommend and really good value.

Lovely food and plenty of it, all cooked fresh. Had such a lovely lunch ( tempura gerkins and smoked mackerel pate to start, swordfish curry and crab, chilli and lime linguine for mains no room for pud) earlier in the week that we went back for afternoon tea today. So much on the afternoon tea we had to bring some back with us. Comes with unlimited tea, coffee or scrummy hot chocolate. Place is lovely and clean and staff cant do enough for you. Would really recommend it, try the tempura gerkins lol.

Took a party of disabled Stroke Survivors to the Boardwalk restaurant in July. All organised in advance with the management team. They catered for almost 50 of us. The welcome and service was excellent and very well organised. Additionally the food, all ordered off a selected menu, was great, delivered efficiently and quick, and was well presented and tasty. This is the 3rd time our group have used this place and it never disappoints. The place is well run, friendly and efficient. Thoroughly recommend.

Possibly the best fish and chips I’ve ever had! The tartare sauce and mushy peas were also fantastic (I am guessing homemade). The batter was golden, thin, and crispy. The fish was cod. The chips were slightly soft (not too crispy), which is how I like them, and not too greasy. I think the menu suggests they are cut on site, which might explain why they are better than chips in other restaurants. And sitting outside on the pier in the sun was lovely. A nice surprise find.

We had a meal here this evening, first thing to say is how lovely and welcoming the staff were. The dinner itself was delicious, my wife had pan fried salmon and was really impressed by it. I had a Pier Burger and it was delicious with an ample serving of fries and Coleslaw. Desert was equally impressive! Once again the icing on the cake was the friendly and attentive staff. Will we be returning? Most definitely!

It was a very busy day in Southwold, and some places struggled with the service. However, The Boardwalk gave excellent service on both occasions that we dropped in for a cuppa. Sitting in the sun, watching the sea, with a much needed cuppa, was absolute perfection

We visited Dulwich and Southwold with our dog. Having eaten at the cafe on Duleich beach previously, we decided to try the Boardwalk Restaurant. We heard it was dog friendly. When we arrived we were greeted and they confirmed that dogs were welcome. We sat at a two seater by the window at the end of the large bay style window. This allowed plenty if floor space for our dog without her being in the way. The staff loved her and kept giving her Boneo treats which she enjoyed. The restaurant is nicely decorated, not over crammed with furniture and was busy but not packed. It felt like a nice, high quality tea room from yesteryear. The service was spot on and in keeping with the venue as was the food which was plentiful and fairly priced. I had my "go to" cod and chips with a coffee and my wife had the pan fried breast of chicken with spring onions and cubes of potatoes and an orange juice chaser. My wife had the sticky toffee puffing and ice dream desert, her usual, and I had another coffee. All in all a most excellent meal in nice surroundings with great service and dog friendly to boot. Well worth it. We then walked around the pier and visited the various nooks and crannies it holds. A great place to visit for all ages.

Lovely place to have food and look at the great views across the sea and back at Southwold. Lovely friendly staff, good food. Just a great place to eat
