Street Food Weekend

Celebrate Chester’s vibrant food and drink scene at a special Street Food Weekend which launches the 2026 Grosvenor Park season next week.

The fabulous two-day event, taking place on Saturday and Sunday, 27-28 June, promises a stellar selection of food and drink along with live music, family games and much more - and also marks the start of the wider Storyhouse in the Park season which runs between now and September.

Entry is free.

Relax and soak up the summer vibes in the enchanting surroundings of the open-air festival site, with delicious culinary treats on offer from leading Chester businesses.

The Sandbar Seafood Shack celebrates the best fresh and tasty seafood chosen from bespoke local suppliers and made with passion and care.

Chester Market favourites Nice Bites, Sandwich’d and Guroma will also be on hand.

Nice Bites offers visitors a range of tempting homemade American-style burgers, hotdogs and sides – all made to its own unique recipes, while Sandwich’d brings its freshly-made, great tasting sandwiches and salads to the park. And Guroma promises visitors an amazing authentic Bangladeshi street food experience personalised to their taste.

Northgate Street newcomer Maray is set to tickle the tastebuds with some of its most popular small plates inspired by Mediterranean and Middle Eastern flavours, while there will be delicious plant-based treats on offer from Chester city walls-based café Fika.

Meanwhile Parkgate institution Chows Eating House is back with its Chows Street Food, delivering a mixture of classic and contemporary Chinese cuisine and the fresh catch taste of its Parkgate Fish & Chips sister business.

And there’s the chance to kick back and relax with Boughton-based independent free house The Jolly Gardeners and award-winning Chester craft beer and cider purveyors That Beer Place.

The Kitchen at Storyhouse will be on hand in the park with a delicious taste of summer for festivalgoers. And the weekend will also feature a pop-up open air wine bar, while the festival site’s popular teepee bar will be serving frozen margaritas, Storyhouse craft ale, local beers and more.
