If you’re an Ipswich local, you’re no stranger to the magic of Hotel Commonwealth. Rich in history, this 19th century establishment once served as a central hub for both locals and travellers in Ipswich. Following years of careful preservation and renovation, Hotel Commonwealth reopened its doors with a blend of traditional charm and modern vibes. 

Guests will discover a menu that focuses on smaller share plates like homemade pork and fennel sausage rolls served with spiced kasundi relish, and house-made cheese and onion crisps paired with a sour cream and chive dip, supported with larger plates like their 450g pork tomahawk chop with cowboy butter and braised chickpeas.
