About

The Boot

Sitting on Freston Hill just south of Ipswich, The Boot occupies a 17th-century building that now runs as a restaurant, pub garden, and event venue. The menu spans brunch, pub deli bites, and an à la carte, with cocktails also on offer; live music and private dining feature in the events programme. Outside, a festoon-lit garden includes a horsebox bar and a giant tipi, and the site also runs Freston Kino, a boutique 12-seat cinema.
