Food is at the heart of the Crown and Castle. The award-winning bistro serves a creative menu using quality Suffolk produce including Orford landed seafood and locally reared meats. Enjoy fine wines on the terrace, overlooking Orford castle.

Perfectly positioned to explore some of the Suffolk coast's great treasures, wild Orford Ness is just across the river Ore, Aldeburgh a few miles to the north, Snape Maltings and Britten Pears Arts to the south and the National Trust's Sutton Hoo, featured in the recent Netflix production of 'The Dig', a 30 minute car journey away.

About Lady Florence

Welcome to the Lady Florence, the River Cruise Restaurant offering Breakfast, Lunch, and Supper Cruises for a maximum of twelve passengers on the Rivers Alde and Ore from Orford, regardless of tides.

Sailing all year round, with a cosy coal fire in winter, the Lady Florence River Cruise Restaurant is designed to provide a different and exciting dining experience. There is ample space, both out on deck and in the elegant dining saloon. As the vessel cruises the calm waters of the Rivers Alde and Ore, we serve freshly-prepared fine foods and drink. We can accommodate special dietary requirements with prior notice. A fully stocked bar is always available, and there is a small but comprehensive wine list, including a fine selection of South African wines, imported directly by ourselves. 

The Lady Florence is available for your own exclusive private charter, or individuals may book independently, sharing with other passengers.

From the quiet serenity of winter to the bustling activity of summer, the rivers offer outstanding scenery to accompany your meal. Every cruise includes an informative commentary on both the intriguing history that made this area, and the wildlife which now inhabits it, so fascinating and precious.
