Harden's survey result
Summary
“Excellent fish” is the highlight of the “imaginative” menu at this “delightful restaurant”, which is “probably the best place for dinner in Southwold”. The ancient building dates from 1455 and has been run for 15 years (10 as owners) by Kinga & Andy Rudd – the latter “a fun host who really cares about making sure everything goes very well”. Al-fresco dining is available in semi-private outdoor timber ‘pods’.
Summary
“A must when you’re in the area” for the “variety of fish dishes on the menu” – Andy & Kinga Rudd’s “comfortable restaurant-with-rooms” (the oldest house in Southwold) is “still the most reliable place to eat in town”.
For 33 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).

Sutherland House Restaurant Diner Reviews
"Good food in a lovely setting with friendly efficient service. The food was well presented but was marred by very light seasoning.. this is offset by the availability of salt and pepper on the table, but depth of flavour was somewhat lacking particularly in the seafood dishes."
