With a celebrity chef restaurant and pub and a street food hub exploring cuisines from across the globe, here is why this Suffolk town is an up and coming hotspot for foodies.
There are many towns and villages in the county people flock to for good food, including Bury St Edmunds and Long Melford.
With recent restaurant openings as well as future food related plans, Felixstowe can also be added to the list of up-and-coming foodie destinations.
