Introducing Spice Bar @ The Table in Woodbridge

At the heart of Woodbridge since the 16th century, our charming townhouse has been looking after diners for over 50 years.

In 2012 Vernon Blackmore and the team opened The Table. Recommended in The Good Food Guide 2020, our reputation is as a lovely, informal eatery serving quality food with great flavours.

In summer of 2021, we opened the Spice Bar at The Table, bringing a modern twist to some classic authentic South East Asian food.

Vernon and his head chefs share the same simple ethos, that good food comes from the best, local produce. We have built close relationships with local producers, allowing us to get our hands on the freshest ingredients, whether that is fish from the quayside or vegetables grown just up the road.

We are now working with our producers on growing some of the more unusual Far Eastern vegetables we love, to add something special to the curries we’ve come to be known for and of course, a little flavour of Malaysia for sunny Suffolk!

We love bringing the community together by offering good food and a relaxing environment in which it can be enjoyed, and nothing showcases this better than our Street Food Sundays in the summer.

The Spice Bar is a lovely, welcoming bolthole whatever the weather, al fresco in our sun-kissed courtyard or inside in our cosy restaurant.

Spice Bar @ The Table is all about happy guests, so please come and enjoy yourselves, there will be a warm welcome…

    Delicious food. Covid secure. Outdoor seating as well as indoor. We sat outside due to current covid restrictions but we still enjoyed our experience and the outdoor heaters were a godsend as the weather has been so cold recently. We would definitely recommend it to others.

    A friend and I visited here on Sunday whilst in the town to watch the regatta, we had lunch here and what a lovely friendly professionally run gem!! The staff were so welcoming, and they have life in them, which is nice, and not stuffy, which we like. Nothing was too much for them, and so helpful. It’s the sort of lace you will just keeping going back to, we are looking to more to the area and will make this a regular for a great meal, and a smile.

    I love The Table. Great food. Legendary service and wonderful location. It’s courtyard garden is perfect in the summer which is why it’s always packed. Every fortnight in summer they host street food Sundays around a food theme with a DJ and often singers. We had dinner the other night and the sirloin steak and pork steaks were incredible. Lovely restaurant.

    As a regular visitor to the Table I can honestly say the attention and efficiency of the staff is second to none, coupled with fine starters and mains, I am always happy to recommend a visit.

    Visited here on Saturday 1 September before going to see film. Beautiful weather as we sat outside and indulged in their vegetarian mezze mixed with the salad board which we saw inside. In addition a dry rose wine. Could not complain. It was absolutely delicious for a light lunch bite. We also had a mixed bowel of salad which had large sweet tomato slices which had a dressing, which was scrumptious because with our climate tomatoes never taste the same as the Med. Whatever the secret ingredient was, made them so delicious including the whole meal. We are not vegetarian but have a mixed palate and appreciate good healthy food. Really lovely lunch. We sat outside and because of our current weather, it just made it seem like we were abroad. Beautiful. Would recommend.

    We ate here one hot evening in July while we were in Woodbridge for a couple of days. A delightful find and a fabulous meal. Lovely outside eating area( always a joy in the UK when we get the weather). Menu was varied and the Tagine I had was amazing. Lovely staff too... young and very pleasant, friendly and happy! An all round great restaurant with a lovely atmosphere. Just a shame we didn’t get time to go back but definitely will if we are back in the area.
