Amelie at Ben's Yard Shortlisted for 2025 Velvet Food and Drink Awards
We are thrilled to announce that Amelie at Ben’s Yard has been shortlisted for the finals of the 2025 Velvet Food and Drink Awards!
Celebrated for our signature flammekueche — a French-inspired flatbread that has won the hearts (and taste buds) of many — Amelie is a finalist in not just one, but two prestigious categories. We are proud to represent Cambridgeshire in the 'Restaurant of the Year' category for Amelie at Ben's Yard and Suffolk in the 'Pop-Up of the Year' category for Amelie at Wyken.
Now in their third year, the Velvet Food and Drink Awards were created to shine a spotlight on the exceptional businesses and individuals who make our region a more delicious and vibrant place to eat and drink. It’s an honour to be recognised alongside so many inspiring names in the industry.
Thank you to all our customers and supporters — we couldn’t have achieved this without you!
Stay tuned for the results, and fingers crossed!
