A popular Ipswich Waterfront venue has temporarily closed ahead of a major refurbishment which has been brought forward.
The Waterfront said it had made the decision for "a number of reasons", allowing work to begin on creating what it described as a "brand-new, unique venue" in time for the spring and summer of 2027.
Staff will relocate to other venues in the Jolly Good Pubs group while the work takes place, with The Waterfront expected to reopen early next year.

The company said customers with existing reservations would be contacted over the coming days to discuss alternative arrangements.
One customer questioned what would happen to a group booking for December 12, with the venue responding that it would discuss rebooking the party at one of its sister venues.
Jolly Good Pubs took on The Waterfront earlier this year, with managing director Tom West previously revealing plans to refurbish and rebrand the venue.
A recent recruitment advert described the planned work as a "six-figure refurbishment" in early 2027.
