Sneak peek at the Great British Beer Festival’s food line-up

Britain’s premier beer festival is returning to Olympia London this summer from 2-6 August, boasting nearly a thousand beers from across the UK and abroad. To accompany this wide variety of drinks, the festival has now unveiled a brilliant selection of delicious street food.

From classic British favourites to new and exotic dishes to try, there is truly something to suit everyone’s tastes, including vegetarian and vegan offers on offer.

• Gupta’s Bombay Street Food – Come to Mr Bombay, the home of the yummiest chicken wrap in town – delicious tender tandoori chicken tikka in a soft wrap with a fresh salad and our homemade sauces. Or how about our Karahi chicken masala with long grain basmati rice and mind-blowing tadka dahl. Samosas, bhajis? We’ve got ’em! Go veggie? Our famous tawa paneer. Grab a beer, grab a curry! Does it get any better?

• West Country Roast Pork Carvery – West Country roast pork carvery, served with sage and onion stuffing and apple sauce in a large roll. Crackling is available but limited in supply, (so when it’s gone it’s gone).

Festival organiser Catherine Tonry said: “The one drawback to having nearly a thousand different beers under one roof is that one tends to get a little peckish while sampling them! Luckily, some of London’s best street food vendors will be on hand to help. From traditional Cornish pasties to Bombay Street food and shawarma, there is enough variety to keep everyone happy!”
