English Drinks Festival

A free festival of English drinks to coincide with Oundle Food Festival and English Wine Week.

We are back for our third English Drinks Festival! We’re excited to host another walk-around tasting of exciting English drinks in the courtyard outside our Market Place shop. From wine and fizz to cider, ales, gin and whisky, there’s something for everyone to enjoy! We’ll have some of the producers there to tell you about their products and pour lots of delicious samples.
