Plans to redevelop a vacant unit at Cardinal Park in Ipswich have been formally approved by Ipswich Borough Council.
The site, which was formerly home to Harvester, has been empty since 2020 when the restaurant chain closed its doors.
Plans were submitted at the start of December for the site, with developers saying it will "ensure that the unit is capable of viable and long-term occupation, meeting market demand and improving the frontage and activation of the unit".
It is the next step in the rejuvenation of Cardinal Park, with the owners hoping to have a full entertainment area having been struggling just a few years ago.

In recent years, the park has seen continued investment and fresh openings.

Kervan Kitchen opened in the former Punch & Judy unit towards the end of 2024 and is proving to be a success with diners in Ipswich.
