Suffolk's only Michelin star restaurant has retained its prestigious accolade. 

Pea Porridge, in Bury St Edmunds, continues to be named one of the best restaurants in the world after it was recognised in the 2024 Michelin Guide. 

The guide recognised the "warmly" feel the eatery, which is run by Justin Sharp alongside his wife Jurga, offers.

It said: "Tucked away on a residential square, this neighbourhood restaurant is warmly and personally run by a husband and wife team, and the unusual name is a nod to the old town green which once stood out front.

"The daily changing menu of North African, Middle Eastern and Mediterranean dishes involves a range of ingredients cooked over charcoal."

The Cannon Street restaurant has been awarded one-star for the past four years. 

It first opened its doors in 2009.

Fellow Bury St Edmunds restaurant Lark was also awarded a Bib Gourmand in the 2024 guide.
