This event ran in October half term - a Stramongate Market - Hannah Gibson 7 day food and drink extravaganza showcasing the very best in local produce and exceptional dining experiences found in and around Kendal. This area is home to some of the finest food and Tomatoes - Hannah Gibson drink in Cumbria. From local fish, game, beef and lamb, to the sumptuous fruit, vegetables and cheeses, the Kendal Festival of Food offers you the very best.

It’s a feast of a week so make the most of the great events and food deals on offer. Go and sample a wide variety of foods at eating establishments across the area, serving quality local produce- fresh to you, every day of the festival. In addition to the ample mouth watering dishes to choose from there are other activities including farm tours, tastings, demonstrations and much more. See how your food gets from pasture to plate.

We want people to visit local producers, taste local produce and buy local products. To do all this, and experience local produce at its best, what better way is there than to visit the establishments themselves? This is why the majority of the events will take place all over the Kendal area so that you can get the best ‘local’ experience. See for yourself how the food gets from farm to fork.

Whether your trip to Kendal is for a short stay, a lavish four-course dinner or a light lunch in picturesque surroundings, there is something for everyone in the programme of events.
