Review of Feast On 2024
Sort of weird you pay money to then come in and pay more for food.. I guess I'm not a massive foodie, and as a vegetarian it was too often the afterthought veggie option that a meat van sold, which wasn't super interesting. I think maybe on a weekend day it was OK- but on the Friday night it was only one talk that I saw, no demonstrations, eating contests, etc. and the music was a really cheesy 80s cover band with the singer in a Rod Stewart wig but Adam Ant jacket. I had some bland egyptian food and some not super inspiring beer (surely a food festival should also care about its food pairing?). I dunno, it was fine, but I'm not sure I would go again.

Review of Feast On 2024
I found this event disappointing - not enough going on, not enough food choices (come on Bristol, you have more to offer than this!) Only one activity for children - there could have been other activities for kids, perhaps in a specific tent/marquee for shade and safety. More shade and more tables generally - as mainly people were eating. But - the food I ate was good, the atmosphere was relaxed and it was enjoyable

Review of Feast On 2024
Great family friendly day out, amazing produce and options for food. Only shame was that a lot of places were starting to sell out of dishes by Sunday afternoon, so best to get there early!

Review of Feast On 2024
£20 pounds to enter with no free food or drink. Food was mostly expensive with small portions, and queues were long, up to a hour.
Venue was small and crowded, stages close together so highly stimulating, but the music was varied and well performed.

Review of Feast On 2024
A good little food fest with a great vibe. I liked that the vendors were all genuinely local from Bristol - it could have done with a little more variety in local beers at the bar though. And definitely needed more ice cream options, especially in the beautiful weather. Finally, a quieter family-focused area would have been nice as it was a bit loud and busy. But those are things that could be easily fixed next year!
