Poacher, Cratfieldback to pub details please note - reviews on this site are purely the opinion of site visitors, so don't take them too seriously.
Visited this pub a few times whilst holidaying in Cratfield. Unpretentious, good beer and wine and food and lovely hosts, Roger and Margaret. Very relaxed place, allows dogs, popular with the locals and staff all friendly. Would recommend.

Still the best pub in the area. Beer still at �2.50 a pint an in tip-top condition too. Why go to the Low House when the Poacher is so much better.
|
Traditional country pub with real fire and good real ale. Welcoming and friendly landlord.
|
Excellent boozer. The landlord, as noted below, is a most genial chap and certainly knows a thing or two about keeping a good cellar.
|
A warm welcome from the tenants, Roger and Margaret. A good range of real ales. A great pub for music and song sessions. a proper pub.
|
The best pub in the area, unpretentious, at least five good beers (cheap, many at �2.50), genial host. What more can you ask from a pub.

This is the genuine article if you are looking for a pretty little country pub, it looks as though it has been a pub for centuries but apparently used to be the village shop or something.
The outside of the building is rendered and has pargetting depicting the poachers stock in trade, hares, foxes,pheasants etc. and is very attractive and unusual.
The inside, on the Sunday lunchtime that I visited, was busy with a crowd who all seemed to know each other, and had a friendly feel to it, Sunday lunches being served looked really appetising and the beer was grand.
The only drawback is that it is well out of the way, however Cratfield is in the rural heart of Suffolk and the scenery is beautiful.
