Moorish Falafel Bar in Norwich will be closed for just over a week while refurbishment work takes place.
The independent business, on Lower Gate Lane, which serves food with a Mediterranean and Middle Eastern flavour, will be getting a new look as it approaches eight years in the city.
As well as a new colour scheme, new seating in the dining area and new flooring throughout, Moorish will be collaborating with local plant sellers The Plant Den - who have a space in Jarrold - to create a feature plant wall upstairs.
Owner and founder of Moorish Falafel Bar Samia King said: 'When I started in 2011 there wasn't much on offer for the vegetarians and vegans in the city.
'Now Norwich is a hub of independent small businesses like mine offering a vast array of delicacies from all over the world.
'So in trying to keep up with the competition and coming up to our eight birthday I've decided to give Moorish a new look and upgrade.'
The eatery will be closed for just over one week while work takes place, from 4pm on Saturday, February 23, to Tuesday, March 5.
