| I've been to the Gladstone Arms opposite before. I don't believe it was listed on the site previously. But, this time my visit to Combs Ford was to the Magpie. We'd read that the food is good here. But, having seen the garden area and the sports bar on one side, it didn't look too appealing. However, the dining area was much more cosy and despite nobody else eating, we decided to give it a go. We needn't have worried, as the dining room gradually filled up and it turned out we'd taken the last table. A few other groups were turned away. Food portions were ample and the menu offered a mixture of traditional pub dishes and oriental ones. We all enjoyed our food. The ale selection was also quite decent. Ales were Sharp's Doom Bar, Adnams Broadside, Greene King IPA & XX Mild & Crouch Vale Brewer's Gold. I later read that they offer a CAMRA discount. But, this is not very well advertised. So, I missed out. Nevertheless, this is a good pub. blue_scrumpy - 2 Jun 2019 17:38 |
| This pub every Sunday has a full Carvery from noon – 5:00. This turned out to be excellent. It’s a Free House with 4 or 5 Real Ales… Locals told me this is the only Carvery in Stowmarket. The pub was very pleasant and the staff were friendly too. london_jim - 3 Sep 2013 18:53 |

| Still a lovely little boozer with a 'local' feel. Good food, good beer, and good service. Darren_in_the_City - 23 Feb 2011 10:13 |
