Food Markets and Events in Bath

Bath has a busy calendar of foodie events, from farmers’ markets and chef demonstrations to wine tastings and food festivals.

Did you know that the first Bath Farmers' Market was set up here in 1997? Bath Farmers’ Market is just as popular today as it was when it first began, running every Saturday morning at Green Park Station. Discover, browse and sample a cornucopia of foodie delights from fruit and vegetables to freshly baked pies, bread, organic meats and plenty of sweet treats, all sourced within a 40-mile radius of the city. Other local farmers markets can be found just outside of Bath in Midsomer Norton and Keynsham.

The Great Bath Feast is one of the most popular food events of the year, and comes to the city every September for a weekend of events showcasing the best locally-sourced produce, with markets, chef demos and supper clubs.

Launched by Tom Kerridge in 2017, Pub in the Park is a three-day festival for food lovers, combining the very best of British cuisine from world-class chefs and Michelin-starred pubs with great live music and chef demonstrations, to create the perfect foodie experience.

Keep an eye out for chef demonstrations and tastings at Topping & Company Booksellers, as they often host chefs who are launching new recipe books.
