When tourists get off at Abbey Gardens to visit the town of Bury St. Edmunds, Street Level Café offers an excellent venue that takes care of their replenishment of the inner man and provides other facilities. With a contemporary British menu, prepared using local produce, the restaurant serves delicious fare at modest prices. You could have a healthy breakfast before visiting the ruins of the Great Abbey and the adjoining new cathedral and return in time for a hearty lunch.

Vegetarians can try the Moroccan vegetable tagine, chunks of sweet potato in a lively fruity sauce with onions, peppers, carrots, aubergines, butterbeans, chick peas and apricots served with rice or with a jacket potato and salad. Fish dishes include fillet fish coated in natural bread crumbs. Meat lovers may well prefer a whole sliced chicken breast, served on a bed of rice, topped with bacon and cheese in a creamy cider, rosemary and sage sauce and garnished with mushrooms and apples.
