another of ipswich's speciality shops…read more don't be fooled by the name, Procters has so much more to offer you than just sausages. A wide selection of olives are on display as well as sauces and other speciality meat products including a variety of flavoured jerk, haggis and black pudding. of course the sausages are the main focus of attention here and with such a variety of flavours to chose from i defy anyone to walk away disappointed.

The butchers itself offers lots of different types of meat and there are so many deals to be…read morehad.This is a lovely butchers called the meat inn, which is found in the centre of Ipswich town on the main drag. For example you can buy 2 pounds of meat for £3. Then on the outside of the door there are lists of big offers. Where you get lots of chops, joints, mince, sausages and bacon for a set amount, there are different packages available to suit your needs, and if you ask nicely you can mix and match products of a similar value. The staff are always friendly and if the meat is just over they always let you off, they would rather give you that little bit extra, then that little bit less.

As most of us do I also get the sudden burst to change my life for the better cut out mac Donalds…read moreand live healthy and guess what I have found just the place for those days. I first went in there purely because it was my birthday and walking past the store they had a banner saying it was there birthday as well and were giving away a healthy piece of cake. That day started my obsession with there amazing chicken whole meal sandwich and killer banana smoothie. At £5,25 for takeaway they are at the top end of the lunch bracket but what you get is worth so much more. A smoothie, sandwich and a piece of fruit. I have never been able to finish all of it and I promise not due to lack of trying everything is truly scrumptious. I will highly recommend them especially since the staff are so friendly and willing to help out with changing orders to suit individual needs. You should give it a go!!!!

More importantly, you can get a damn good strong black coffee! Prices range from £5.50 - £6.50 for a main meal, which comes with a side salad. Their portions really are huge, so make sure you are hungry! I'm so glad they opened, as Ipswich is seriously lacking in vegan-friendly places to eat!
