We all like to support independent restaurants and cafes, but when we’re on holiday it’s sometimes hard to find out where the best independent restaurants are hiding. We’ve put together a list of the best independent places to eat in Bury St Edmunds so that you can just relax and enjoy the experience!
- The Old Cannon.
The Old Cannon is an independent brewery and restaurant in the heart of town that uses local ingredients in their beers as well as their delicious selection of food.
This independent restaurant serves up Chinese and classic Asian flavours with a twist, using only the best ingredients. It’s conveniently located right in the centre of Bury St Edmunds, and they even do takeaway Monday-Thursday!
3. Maison Bleue
The Maison Bleue serves up, you guessed it, wonderful French cuisine that has won all sorts of awards. TripAdvisor consistently rates it among the top 10 fine dining restaurants in the country, so put on your best shoes and go and see what all the fuss is about.
4. The Zen Noodle Bar
Another fantastic spot for dinner right in the centre of town. The chefs at Zen cook up Chinese, Japonese, Thai, Malaysian and Vietnamese influenced rice and noodle dishes where you can see them at work. They also do takeaway if you’d rather eat with your feet up.
5. Casa del Mar
For a Mediterranean feel, head down to Casa del Mar, a quirky little independent place in the centre of Bury St Edmunds that serves up tapas and meze alongside main courses.
6. Cafe Kotanni
A brilliant lunchtime option is this little Greek cafe that is always popular. Little wonder, when everything is so delicious. Try the meze platter!
And when you get peckish…
7. Really Rather Good Coffee
This beautifully decorated coffee house serves wonderful hot drinks alongside extremely tempting cakes, as well as a few savoury options. It’s right on Angel Hill, looking down at the old Abbey Gate, so you can re-energise before exploring more of the delights of Bury St Edmunds.
