A large hotel bar located opposite to the main railway station and backing onto the River Gipping. Retaining a comfortable public bar and function room. Now much improved and renovated. it was taken over by Eddie Roberts, who previously ran Uncle Tom's Cabin (since closed).
Beers are by Greene King; it's understood that the "house" beers are re-badged GK ales. Real ale is available here only very occasionally.
Historic Interest
At a Petty Sessions hearing on 29 September 1860 the 'Station Hotel opposite the new railway station' was refused a new spirit licence. Out of the twenty four applications only three establishments were granted licences. A report in the Ipswich Journal** in Jan 1880 states that : "An extension of one hour on Friday evening was granted to Mr Dixon at the Station Hotel on the occasion of the Railway employees' dinner". Renamed the Riverside Hotel in November 2011 but now reverted to Station Hotel. Refurbished after a period when most of the pub was run as an Indian restaurant. Photographs of this pub and more historical information about it can be found at suffolk.camra.org.uk/pub/559
This Pub serves 3 changing beers and 1 regular beer.
