A food-lover's dream festival comes to south London 🍔😍

Take a 'taste staycation' at Streatham Food Festival

You may not be travelling far this year, but that doesn't mean your tastebuds can't. Eat your way around the world at Streatham Food Festival, a month-long celebration of the area's global culinary options.

Restaurants, cafes and bars all over Streatham are taking part, offering food to eat in and take away. They're showcasing their signature dishes, serving them up for £7-£10 throughout the festival, giving residents and visitors 30 days to eat their way around Streatham.

Boutique cafe Boyce da Roca, Italian restaurant La Fresca, vegan cafe Tribe, gastropub The Manor Arms and Caribbean cookery kings The Real Jerk are just some of the venues taking part, with many more joining them. Check out the Streatham Food Festival map to start planning your route and strategy.

Like what you taste? Learn to make some of the area's most popular signature dishes yourself, at weekly online cooking demonstrations. Over four weeks, find out how to make a three-course Streatham meal and accompanying cocktail - all without leaving your home.

Streatham Food Festival takes place 1-30 September 2020.
