In the light of the government announcement of March 20th, all pubs are now closed until further notice.
However, a number of pubs are providing takeaway food and/or drinks during the lockdown. Some offer deliveries, while others are selling from the premises. This page lists details of those we know about.
If you can give any of our pubs some support through these difficult times by buying some takeaway food or drink, please do so. Our pubs need as much support of possible if they're going to still be there for us when the crisis is over.

The 1904 Woodbridge licensing records show that the White Horse's license was issued in 1853. Whether this was when it was first licensed or when it got a full (ie not just beer) license isn't clear, though the latter seems more probable.
An earlier building dates back to at least 1712. The current building opened in 1904 on the same site.
In 1712, licences were being granted at the Pellicane, in East Bergholt and one was agreed for Benjamin Everston at "Whitehorse, Felixstow". The present inn was built in 1904, at the rear of its predecessor."Inns of the Suffolk Coast" by Leonard P Thompson, 1979**
