'The Sole Bay Inn is simply a pub. Chris and Sandra Chapman have established this now popular, much photographed Adnams pub onto a busy welcoming establishment, serving locally brewed beer in perfect condition, offering a well chosen wine list and a simple range of well prepared and presented delicious food.

Equally as popular with the locals as with the large number of visitors who now frequent this small comfortable hostelry, the genial landlord has created a haven away from the stresses of the modern world. No television or electronic games, just animated conversation, laughter and friendship, a pub of yesteryear.
Based at the foot of the lighthouse, the Sole Bay Inn is most certainly a place to visit when in Southwold, sample the excellent beer, delicious food and warm welcoming ambiance
