A top Suffolk restaurant has been commended for its warm and welcoming atmosphere by a national food guide.
Maison Bleue in Bury St Edmunds has once again been named among the best and is the only Suffolk restaurant to feature in the latest list.
The Good Food Guide has shared its annual list of the 15 "warmest" restaurants in the country showcasing places which have the best service and the best atmosphere.
The modern fine-dining restaurant specialises in French cuisine with customers encouraged to take their time with their meal to enjoy the flavours.
Speaking about the west Suffolk establishment, the Good Food Guide said: "There's a serenity about Maison Bleue, a kind of timeless elegance and comfort elevates 'lunch' to 'luuuunch'.
"The combination of graceful service delivered by exceptional people and a menu of classical French is everything a restaurant should be."
Maison Bleue has received national acclaim before and earlier this year received an award from restaurant guide Hardens for its "exceptional quality food".
