This September welcomes the arrival of a brand-new festival that will have you feasting across multiple venues in the heart of East Devon. From Saturday 11th September – Sunday 19th September award-winning venues, producers, chefs and restaurants throughout the region will be joining forces to celebrate incredible food and drink. The nine-day festival will encompass a selection of world-class events. From an evening with Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall at River Cottage to a Darts Farm River Exe extravaganza cycling trail. Various restaurants in the area will create special menus and experiences throughout the week including a seafood tasting experience at The Salutation Inn and a ‘Totally East Devon’ menu at Jack in the Green. The Donkey Sanctuary will be hosting a vegetarian afternoon and beer lovers may book a tour and BBQ at Otter Brewery. And for the big finale… this will be held at THE PIG-at Combe. This is a real celebration of food and drink from all angles providing a true ‘field to fork’ experience.

Ruud Jansen Venneboer, Taste East Devon Festival Chair and owner of Mazzard Farm holiday cottages: “East Devon has such a strong food community and is home to some of the most incredible names in the country. We are a world class food destination and it’s time we started shouting about it!
