Welcome to the guide that celebrates the flair, creativity and dedication of some of the most hard working, friendly and creative businesses on our versatile East Coast.

In The Finest of the A12 you will discover Suffolk's real East Coast; an area ripe with delightful, homegrown businesses and hardworking men and women who strive to please their customers. Unfortunately, the nature of their businesses can often mean their workshops and stores are tucked away; off the beaten track. Without large advertising budgets, they struggle to become known outside their immediate town or village.

Hence this guide.

Every business listed in The Finest of the A12 is either new and keen to make a memorable impression; or comes personally recommended to us by satisfied customers.

Every business listed is an independent, family-run, or small business.

And every business listed is definitely worth driving that extra mile for.
