Drink in Ipswich (England)
For daytime summer drinking the only place to be is Isaac's along the waterfront, a fantastic establishment with huge outdoor area and 4 seperate bars to reduce queuing.
Churches, Zing Bar, Barcoda, The Swan, and Keo's are the pick of the town centre bars.
The Greyhound. About ten minute's walk from the town centre, is a pub serving a good range of food and again is TV-free.
Fat Cat, Spring Road. About 15 minutes walk from the centre, is worth a visit. Formerly Suffolk Pub of the Year, again it's TV-free, but more importantly has a range of around 20 beers on draught at any one time - a beer drinker's paradise. There is an excellent beer garden and the pub has an arrangement with local take-away restaurants who will deliver food + plates and collect these from the pub direct.
The Milestone, Which offers a wide range of beers and live music of the traditional R & B type - i.e. played by middle-aged men who have real jobs in the day. The Railway is probably the best "live music" pub in Ipswich, featuring "indie" style bands on Thursdays, and mostly cover bands at the weekend. Mostly free admission.
The Dove, St. Helen's Street and nearer to the centre of Ipswich. Sometime in the near future will be adding a Microbrewery and B&B services. Was voted Suffolk Pub of the Year and East Anglian Pub of the Year 2006 by CAMRA, and winning numerous publican awards since.
The Brewery Tap, Cliff Road, IP3 0AT, ☎ 01473 225501, . The Brewery Tap is a fantastic pub serving really great locally sourced food made on the premises by a great chef. They also serve a wide range of local beers, including the Suffolk lager, Calvors. If this place had an ego, it would be a gastro pub. Quiz night every other Thursday and regular live music of the acoustic variety that you can still hold a conversation over. If Carlsberg (which they don't serve) made pubs...�;-) �
