If you are in Felixstowe and feel like going out of an evening, all the night life happens at the bottom of Bent Hill. There are 6 bars and that's where every body goes on a Friday and Saturday night.
Dress Code: There is no dress code anywhere in Felixstowe but I have heard that a few places have started to ask customers to remove their hats.

Helpfulness
I was in Felixstowe during Diana's funeral in September 1997. The whole country shut down for a day (except for the bars). There was a huge spontanteous outpouring of emotion. Despite the misgivings in the tabloids, Diana was hugely popular amongst the commoners.
The picture is a war memorial that was turned into a memorial for Diana.
