The Alex Brasserie

We re-opened in March 2010 after a complete refurbishment of what was The Alex Restaurant, creating an informal all day eatery, re-branded as The Alex Brasserie. The menu is intended to be versatile and friendly as well as enticing - from a light lunch with friends (salmon fillet with bacon and cockle butter, Savoy cabbage and new potatoes) to a mid afternoon or pre-theatre snack (seafood board of smoked salmon, crab pâté, smoked trout, crispy whitebait, calamari, lemon and rouille with organic baguette) or a full evening blow out (Deben oysters and champagne followed by char grilled fillet steak with a choice of chef's sauces, frites and house green salad). Head chef Preston Bloom complements the menu with daily specials on our blackboards sourced extensively from Felixstowe's fresh catch of the day. You are also welcome to pop up and have a coffee or drink whilst enjoying the fantastic sea view.

Opening Times : The Brasserie is open seven days a week from 11am to 11pm. Last seating is at 9.30pm Monday to Thursday and 10pm Friday and Saturday.
Booking Policy : after listening to your feedback, we have relaxed our original no booking policy. We understand that if you are travelling or arranging to meet guests then the surety of a reservation is desired. You can now book a table for up to 16 people. We still remain committed to the informality of "just turning up" when you are ready, and we still operate our "greet and seat" policy, therefore only a certain number of tables are booked out at any one time. 
Set Price Menu : our set price menu is available Monday to Friday, from noon until 6pm priced at £12 for 2 courses.

To book please ring 01394 282958. We can also take larger parties by arrangement - please ask to speak to Danny or Rich.
