An Oxfordshire restaurant has retained its position in the Michelin Guide 2025 for restaurants in Great Britain and Ireland.
Five Little Pigs in St Mary's Street, Wallingford, was first mentioned in the coveted list last year after setting up shop in 2021.
Now, at an award ceremony on Monday, February 10, the stylish bistro restaurant has been told it has kept its spot in the guide to good restaurants.

The team behind the restaurant said: "That cheerful, puffy Michelin guy sure knows what he's doing, releasing the guide at this time of year - it's cold, gloomy and it can all feel a bit hard.
"But as always, whilst we're not in the business of doing this malarkey for the accolades, they are a most welcome reward.

"It's put a big smile on all of our faces today."
Named after the nursery rhyme and novel by Wallingford's Agatha Christie, who lived in nearby Winterbrook House, the eatery has gone down a huge success with diners in the town since it opened too.
The trio behind the restaurant are Rob McGregor, Sam Smith and Aimee Collins.

A description of restaurant in the guide says: "This neighbourhood restaurant is divided into three areas: the brightly coloured front resembles a modern bistro; a bar fits in the centre; and the rear sports an open kitchen pass and cosy booths.
"Sharing is encouraged with larger plates such as roasted halibut and smaller ones like 'spare bed tempura' - using vegetables grown in the gardens of neighbours who have some space to spare.
"The wholesome cooking is joined by a range of local gins to keep enthusiasts happy."
