Don't Like Ale?
Don't worry we have drinks for all tastes. If you want to enjoy the music at the festival but think it's not for you because you don't like ale, then don't worry. Alongside the main bar we also serve Becks bottled lager, cider, a selection of wines and champagne and a range of soft drinks from our wine bar. To eat we have a range of concessions including a burger bar, the ever popular Hog Roast and new this year Pieminister's great range of tasty pies. There is also a selection of chocolate at the wine bar.
