Dogs are allowed, the fair is vegan friendly and there's a cocktail that tastes like mince pies; that's right, GRUB's Christmas Food Fair has returned to North Western Street for a fiercely festive month at Alphabet Brewing Co.
Strictly clear of Scrooges, not only is this year's fair super charged with Christmas tree stalls and gift shops for those that are often late and haphazard on the gift buying front, there's plenty of festive food and drink to go around. From a Steep Soda cocktail that tastes like a cocktail and beers in the shape of classic Alphabet brews such as Hoi Polloi, Flat White and Nouvelle Saison, to come-getcha-some grub in the shape of Holy Crab, Mac Daddies, Purely Pizza and Nicely Kitchen. Not enough for a boohoo like you? There's DJs and Northern Quarter Boys Choir to throw some more atmosphere into the mix.
The GRUB Christmas Food Fair is free entry. The event will be open Saturday December 3, Saturday December 10, Saturday December 17 and Friday December 23, from 12pm to 10pm.
