Discover the Food Village
Written by: Rosie Collins
Our Street Food Village is back open for the 2023 season!
Now in its third year, the Food Village is a vibrant outdoor dining & drinking space adjacent to our main food hall, dedicated to serving up the best street food that Kent has to offer... plus live music on the first Friday of every month.
Here's our guide to our updated line-up of traders and their dishes not to miss... Please check with individual traders for their official opening hours
Al Taco
A new trader for 2023, Al Taco offer (you guessed it!) a range of authentic tacos, nacho dishes & other Mexican specialities every Friday - Sunday.
Signature Dishes
Their birria beef tacos! The super succulent beef is slow cooked for 5 hours, fried inside a corn tortilla and served with a tasty consommé on the side, made using the cooking liquor.
Macknade Kitchen
From Wednesday to Sunday, you’ll find Macknade’s dedicated in-house team serving up coffees, pastries and light lunches in the Food Village. On music nights & weekends, look out for special dishes including loaded fries and hot filled ciabattas, featuring meat from our very own butchers.
Signature Dishes
You can't beat one of our famous cheese & charcuterie platters, paired with your favourite bottle from our Wine & Spirits store!
The Little Katsu Kitchen
Michelle Booth, chef-owner of The Little Katsu Kitchen, serves up the very best Asian-fusion flavours every Thursday through Sunday, including bao buns, katsu curries, dumplings & noodle bowls.
Signature Dishes
It's hard to choose just one dish on this regularly changing menu, but we love the freshness of Michelle's Nasi Goreng with chickeni!
Mamie’s Crepes
A father and son team with some serious French heritage, Mamie’s Crepes use a secret family recipe passed down through the generations for their delicious desserts, enjoyed by adults & kids alike.
Signature DishesWhile it’s very hard to pick a winner from Mamie’s extensive crepe menu, for us the loaded Biscoff Crepe is a firm favourite.
Wild Box
From May 5th, Wild Box will have a brand new home in our hop shed, serving up craft cocktails using local produce and specialist ingredients from our food hall.
Signature Serves
It really depends whether you like yours sweet, strong, sour or fruity... so we suggest you try one of each and leave the car at home!
