The wine list has been put together by Flunder Wines, which is based near Woodbridge, with a drinks recommendation for every single dish on the menu.

One of the first new places to eat in Woodbridge in 2022, Suffolk bakery chain Two Magpies opened its latest store in town centre back in January.

Two Magpies said the move to Woodbridge had been accelerated through public support among the community.

Ye Olde Bell & Steelyard, which is believed to be the 12th oldest pub in England, might not be a new name in Woodbridge – but it was taken over by brothers Matt and Dan Smith earlier this year.

The brothers say they have fulfilled a family dream by taking over the New Street pub and given it a fresh spin.
