    Wow what a beautiful place, so glad we stopped in for a quick drink. Ended up having a quick bite to eat as the menu and food looked fab, we opted for the seafood platter to share which was fresh and delicious and a very good price of only £22.00. We will definitely be returning. Staff were very friendly and helpful too 10/10 would highly recommend and look forward to returning.

    Two friends and I did a pre walk around Stisted before stopping at the Onley for a drink. Looking at the menu we decided to stay for lunch. Oh my goodness it was wonderful, we ate slowly, savouring every mouthful, remarking - you must try this! Fantastic flavours and so well cooked. We couldn’t wait to return on the Sunday with our walking group. We were a tad worried about saying how good everything was, just in case it didn’t live up to expectations. We shouldn’t have worried, one said, best roast ever, another, thank you for introducing me to this gem. We will be back even if our Sunday walk is only vaguely near Stisted, we will be there, can’t wait. We met the chef, very good, helpful and answered all our questions. Waiting and bar staff also friendly and efficient. BTW if you like walking, good paths and we saw lots of wildlife including a large herd of deer, which stood and looked at us for ages. So good.
