The Stroud Festival of Food and Drink returns for its third year.
Taking place from May 17th to 19th, the not for profit event aims to showcase all of the amazing cafes, bars and restaurants that Stroud has to offer whilst filling the town with a festival vibe.
Lansdown Hall will play host to great food talks and chefs demos from the likes of Wes Birch, The Ship Inn, Matt Beardshall, Wilder and Stroud Microdairy. All of these talks are free to attend.
There will be delicious street food provided by over thirty food trucks set up over three areas plus bars, music, masterclasses, talks and chefs demos.
London Road will be a mecca for foodies with its fabulous selection of food trucks featuring food from all over the world from Nepal to Kenya and Greece to Stroud. Alongside these will be a wonderfully local Big Red Bus bar and a new addition, Kaleb’s Cider Bus.
Fawkes Place once again becomes food truck heaven with another selection of great culinary offerings plus bars run by Polo Gin and The Prince Albert Pub.
Grab your food and take the short walk to Bank Gardens where you can enjoy a drink and some great music.
If you like your food plant based then Vegan Alley is the place to be with a fine gathering of the best vegan food trucks around.
The Subscription Rooms plays host to some amazing drinks talks and masterclasses beautifully curated by the Stroud Wine Company. Tickets for these are available here https://thesubrooms.co.uk/whats-on/stroud-festival-of-food-drink-1373/festival
Also at the Subs is a fantastic indoor market showcasing even more of the amazing local and not so local producers of food and drink including a number of companies offering free samples to tempt you.
And why not take part in some free BBQ sessions in front of the Subs whilst sipping on a delightful Woodchester Valley tipple.
As you can see there’s a huge amount to see and do across the weekend which kicks off at 4pm on May 17th so why not forget the cooking and head into town.
