THE GRAZING SHEEP REVIEWS

Mmmm… Delicious! Coffee was lovely too. The owner was very welcoming, nice guy. The service was good too, we had our drinks and food delivered at the same time. We went during a busy period and were able to find a table quickly. Only thing was that the poached eggs weren’t runny but that was not a problem for me and still enjoyed my meal. Will be going there again!

I have been visiting since I moved to Ipswich 2 years ago and now have an office right next door - Bart the owner is amazing, so accommodating and just a lovely person, the food is always 10/10 and his team of servers are always polite and helpful. We love the Graczing Sheep!

We’ve been here a few times as a family, very welcoming on arrival, the staff are lovely. Both food and drinks are very tasty, accompanied by a great waterfront view. The perfect place to go for breakfast!

APPLAUD COFFEE REVIEWS

This place is an Ipswich Gem, conveniently located excellently crafted coffee (even the ice team was good) , lovely sausage roll and impeccable service from the staff. The staff were very helpful with recommendations and such a joy to speak to and the decor and ambience of the cafe was second to none. They also have a cute outdoor garden area I really like.

Went in for breakfast, very small, only 4 tables, but was lucky and got a table. Can reserve a table especially for lunch, can sit in the courtyard if weather good. I had the blueberry pancakes and have to say they are the best I've had. Staff friendly, place clean and tidy. Highly recommend.

Applaud is the most amazing place to go for coffee! The beans are beautiful and you can taste the love that is put into the food. the atmosphere is honestly amazing. As a regular here I couldn’t go anywhere else. The girls are so welcoming and coming here makes my day! Thank you so much ladies!!!

TIM HORTONS IPSWICH REVIEWS

Canadian here, but here for work so naturally I had to get Timmies. Thoroughly impressed, the breakfast tastes better than Canadian Tim’s. Our Timbits are better, although the apple fritter Timbits which we don’t have are awesome. Mocha, chocolate dip donut, and hashbrown was just too good. Will make a return when I’m in the area next time.

Food is always brilliant. Great for taking away as you normally would. Nice burgers, great donuts, speedy service. Could be a little more personable at times but it certainly still works for the environment. Does feel a bit empty in there at times, not many people sit down and eat, just take away. The restaurant serves its purpose - especially with the coffee. Always good. And I do recommend the upgrade to the Arabica coffee! It certainly packs more of a punch if needed.

I’ve given this place negative reviews in the past but they’ve upped their game! Personally they’re now better than the McDonald’s over the road for breakfast, breakfast wrap, you get a hash brown in the wrap and another in the bag it was really good and I love the French vanilla latte, the small is bigger than the McDonald’s large. I’ll definitely be coming back again for breakfast!
