Sheen Food Fest returns on 12 September with 20-plus indie venues

East Sheen's celebration of independent food and drink is back for its second year on Saturday 12 September, and it's shaping up to be a proper foodie day out for anyone within striking distance of SW14.
More than 20 cafés, restaurants, pubs, delis and eateries across East Sheen will take part. Every ticket includes five Taste Tokens, each redeemable for a complimentary tasting portion at a participating venue — a good way to try several places in a single afternoon without committing to a full meal. Venues will also each offer a specially created Food Fest Special priced at £5.
The format is refreshingly low-key: collect a map from the designated collection point from 10am, then follow your own trail around the high street at whatever pace suits you. There's no fixed route and no set schedule, which makes it equally good for a solo explore or a group outing.
East Sheen is close enough to Barnes that it makes easy sense as a day trip — a short cycle or bus ride along the Upper Richmond Road. Full details of participating venues and ticket information are available via the Richmond Council events page.
