What a lucky find! We had given up on finding a place to eat on a Sunday night due to restaurants being fully booked or not serving food - decided to buy some pizzas to cook at home but on the way back, got a waft of the food from The Box. We swiftly decided to abandon our pizzas and get some food from here. Thank goodness we did! This saved our evening! The lady cooking our food was so characterful and knowledgeable about her food and clearly has such passion for it. The food was so fresh and not at all greasy. The prawn curry was incredible with huge prawns picked up from the local market and a decent number in each curry pot! Great portion sizes too! We were kindly given extras too such a pot of squash curry and salad and a abundance of naans and popadoms. Overall, this was fantastic!
Lovely staff but the food was very underwhelming, food was completely different to what was expected. Ordered 2 kormas both were incredibly spicy but also bland in flavour, ordered another 2 dishes but neither was what was described as on the menu as I ordered cauliflower but it came with broccoli. The place does not provide takeout cutlery or drinks of any sort. I had rlly high hopes and was quite disappointed.
What a fantastic product, bread made to the highest quality and so many yummy options. Why then do you have to wait 20 minutes when two people are serving? The system is broken. Visiting for the first time we had no idea what to order, if we had been given a list of what breads they offered we will have been able to order a lot quicker. The Box needs a more affective system and drastically needs to reduce the waiting times.
I have had takeaways from Jewel in the Box a few times. The food is superb, so flavoursome and fresh and a great sized portion. I’ve introduced a few friends to it and without exception they have loved it, using the words ‘amazing’ and ‘ still raving it about it the next morning’ . Well done Julie.
Give it a try folks, you won’t regret it ????
Been to the street food Friday pop ups a couple of times and have loved them! Such a fun idea and really yummy food. The black dog deli guys are really nice too:)
We’ve had curries twice from here and both times were absolutely delicious! Generous portions, really well spiced/flavoured and good value. A real gem, definitely worth ordering from on your next southwold visit.
Went twice today to The Box. In the morning, they had a great range of top quality artisan bakery items including an excellent walnut and date bread, and a really tasty raspberry and chocolate tart. Certainly as good as the other excellent artisanal bakery in Southwold.
Then tonight we went back for ‘The Jewel in the Box’ - which was equally excellent. We ordered several different dishes and each was tasty and generous in portion. Julie’s clearly a very good chef and is doing a great job running this lovely little business.
Always a pleasure going to the box. Breads amazing.
