Suffolk’s Pea Porridge keeps its Michelin Star for 2025, marking the fifth consecutive year for this honor.
The restaurant is on Cannon Street. They first received a Michelin Star back in 2021. This year, 220 restaurants earned the top award.
Justin Sharp and his wife, Jurga, own Pea Porridge. Restaurants earn stars for high-quality ingredients, and dishes must meet a very high standard consistently.
Pea Porridge began in 2009. Justin and Jurga Sharp are the operators. Justin spoke about being proud of the award, as their restaurant gets high praise from the guide.
Inspectors described the restaurant as warm. A husband and wife team run it. The name points to the old town green that once stood out front, they noted.
The menu changes daily. North African, Middle Eastern, and Mediterranean foods are cooked over charcoal, and fresh sourdough flatbread starts each meal. Flavors are bold and expertly done.
The wine list focuses on organic and natural choices. Lunch offers especially good value.
