About

The Canteen

Tucked behind St Edmund's church on Field Stile Road, about five minutes from Southwold's High Street and Pier, The Canteen operates as a café-restaurant within the Old Hospital Hub. Brunch runs from 9am to 2pm with specialty coffee, sourdough from Filo & Twine, and house-made preserves; lunch specials change daily and lean on locally sourced and allotment-grown ingredients, with the savoury tart earning a mention on BBC Rick Stein's Food Stories.
