Read on for a rundown of the festival’s first wave of traders…

Dead Wingers’ award-winning New York-style chicken wings will be on offer, alongside Whiteladies Road-based seafood haven, Spiny Lobster. If sweet treats are more your style, then family-run enterprise Pipp & Co will be in attendance, with their sumptuous, handcrafted doughnuts.

 

Showcasing their critically acclaimed seasonal Italian cuisine will be charming Southville favourite, Sonny Stores. Other popular Italian restaurants heading to The Downs this summer are Chandos Road’s Snobby’s and Bristol-based culinary heavyweights, Bianchis Group.

Pizza fans are also in luck, firstly from Bristol juggernauts and sourdough experts Pizzarova and secondly from Pizza is Lovely, specialists in deep-dish Detroit-style pizza. Or, if you’ve got more of a sweet tooth, why not treat yourself to jam from GingerBeard’s Preserves – chutneys and marmalades are also available.

 

Danny’s Burgers will be offering their Cali-style high-grade smash burgers to festival attendees while pop-up favourites Gourmet Warriors will be offering out Bristol’s finest Birria Tacos. A.B.O.E stands for ‘A Bit Of Everything’ and that’s exactly what they do, through Michelin-trained Head Chef Sebastian Merry’s Modern British fusions.

Another Bristol favourite set to be in attendance is Stokes Croft’s Nadu, serving their mouth-watering Sri Lankan and Tamil delicacies. Elsewhere, FED will be providing a Middle Eastern spread jam-packed with salads, Shawarmas and more, while trendy Korean eatery Bokman will be offering a range of creative dishes.

 

Caper & Cure is nestled on the corner of Stokes Croft and Montpelier and boasts an ever-changing menu, using the finest local and organic ingredients. If it’s seafood you want, why not give the innovative pop-up Blasé a go? Or, when it comes to show-stopping cakes and bakes, Ahh Toots has got you covered.

Feast On Festival runs from Friday 26 until Sunday 28 July 2024 with first release tickets already sold out. Second-release tickets go live on Tuesday 16 April – visit the festival website to find out more.
