Situated on the Red Bank Project, Grub is an amazing local business that serves great street food and provides a creative space for independent businesses to feature.

It also plays host to a 100 seater cinema space, Chapeltown Picture House, with a kids play room, dining hall & arguably most importantly, one the area’s biggest beer gardens.

It was set up in 2014 by husband and wife team Jason Bailey and Juliana Bailey after a successful run as street food traders themselves.

The focus of the events is always providing an inclusive, festival-style atmosphere supported by exceptional food and drink supplied by truly independent producers and chefs.

The weekend will see an array of activities from yoga to painting classes, guided vision boarding and more.

So if you’re looking for a healthy and wholesome start to 2023, why not pay them a visit?
