The Farnham Feast of Food celebrates the importance of buying local produce. Through a fortnight of different activities and events Farnham Town Council hopes to encourage new audiences to source food locally, as fewer food miles are travelled which means products are fresh and full of flavour and helps to support local businesses at the same time.

One of the events during the Feast of food will be The Farnham Food Crawl. The Farnham Food Crawl gives people an opportunity to discover Farnham's range of eateries, with a different pub or restaurant offering a three course menu for £15 a head every night for two weeks.

The Sandrock will once again be taking part in the Farnham Feast of Food and the Farnham Food Crawl, with a World War Two themed menu. Our Food Crawl evening will be on Wednesday 22nd of September and we are now taking bookings.

Last year we were fully booked within two weeks of Farnham Council releasing the food crawl dates and menus, so to avoid disappointment we recommend booking early.

As last year was so popular we have decided to run our World War Two themed menu for an extra 4 evenings, from Monday 20th to Friday 24th September 7pm to 9:30pm.
