The Fludyers Hotel is a vibrant pub, restaurant and hotel located in a beautifully restored Edwardian building on the Suffolk coastline, just yards from the beach. Please call 01394 691929 for table bookings. Room bookings can be made through the website. Built in 1903, this landmark hostelry has welcomed guests since Felixstowe's days as a fashionable Edwardian seaside destination.

Today you'll find a welcoming pub offering up a range of real ales and fine bar snacks. There's also a restaurant that serves our head chefs' modern interpretation of British classics. If you fancy staying over, we have 12 rooms, plus a mews apartment and accessible mews room, all furnished in contemporary style and kitted out with Samsung flatscreens and walk-in showers plus a 24-hour reception.
Services
This handsome building dates back to 1903, although according to the record books, there's been a Fludyer Arms on the site since 1839. The building even played its part in the Second World War - our fantastic beachfront location led to a machine gun being installed in the restaurant in 1940. In recent years The Fludyers has sadly suffered from a lack of investment.
Breakfast is served between 7:30am and 10:45am on weekdays and from 8am till 10:45am at weekends. Lunch is between noon and 3pm, while dinner runs from 6pm til 9.00pm, Monday to Saturday (for Sunday service times see below). Our restaurant is a delightful panelled room (complete with the ubiquitous sea views) where we serve breakfast, lunch and dinner.
Real-ale fans will love our public bar. We've made the most of having Adnams, one of the UK's top breweries, on our doorstep - and where better to enjoy the 'beer from the coast' than right by the beach?. You can also relish a pint of Woodfordes' Wherry or sample one of our guest beers. Meanwhile, if you're feeling peckish, we offer tasty snacks, such as Scotch eggs, cod goujons or tempura prawns.
Felixstowe enjoys a unique position, perched on a peninsula between the rivers Orwell and Deben. The Orwell is home to Britain's busiest container port, the Port of Felixstowe, which is where the impressive ships you'll see from the Fludyers' are headed. At the mouth of the Deben sits the sleepy little hamlet of Felixstowe Ferry, and you couldn't imagine a bigger contrast.

Nice hotel bar / café serving light meals, all manner of coffees, teas and beers, wines and spirits. Reasonably priced.

Truly lovely hotel. Room with sea view and balcony was superb although the sound of the sea took a little getting used to. Food was excellent, service was a little flawed when we sat outside.

We needed an evening meal for business and this was our first choice. Great service and a curry with a kick, so compliments sent to the kitchen for sure. Great burger and chips, with the perfectly poured pint of Guinness. Mentioned on the Verso's Proc Cast this week also.

We ate a hearty fish and chip meal here. Fresh as can be and served with minted peas. Outside you can view the sea when you eat and bring your 🐕 along too. Toilets around the back are modern and well serviced. A regular stop for us when in Felixstowe.

Had the most enormous plate of fish chips and peas. Sat outside in warm autumn sunshine staring out at the sea. Dog friendly outside. Food delicious and they sell Ghost ship zero on pump. Great if you are driving and want a beer! Staff exceptionally good. Friendly and very efficient, especially considering how busy it was and how few of them there were. Will definitely recommend and return soon.

Beautiful views, good polite service and food was amazing. Only reason for four stars and not five is there's a lot of noise from the kitchen and shouts of 'service please!' ,maybe a bell for service and a little light low volume music would help. Thanks ☺️

Excellent and professional staff (considering so young) excellent room with attention to detail and design. And excellent food.. we ate outside and enjoyed the sea from the terrace..if I have one criticism it's that there is no Hotel lounge area not even a sofa in the lobby for that reason I'd say it was a high class bnb. Also the bar and restaurant looked rather bleak with no soft furnishings etc so we were glad the weather was good enough to be outside. Would highly recommend
