Taste Salisbury's second year was even more special than the first, with more events and bigger promotions
Following the success of 2021, Salisbury BID, Salisbury City Council and Experience Salisbury worked in collaboration to make sure this year’s celebration is even bigger and better and they certainly were.
From 26th August we saw exclusive offers from names like Pickled Frog, Dinghams and Qudos as well as special menus from Cosy Club, Allium and The Chapter House.
Alongside these mouth watering offers there were tonnes of events on over the 10 days including the Rum and Drum night hosted by Artisan Wine & Spirit Co. outside the Guildhall as well as Fish Row Fest which brought together Mauls Cheese and Wine Bar, Pritchett’s Family Butchers, Premier Fish Limited and Reeve the Baker for an all day tasting event along Fish Row and Butcher Row.
Roly’s Fudge Pantry sold a limited-edition Taste Salisbury Fudge exclusively made for the festival created a gin based fudge in collaboration with the locally based, Downton Distillery. The Boathouse reopened their doors on 31st August celebrating with 10% discount over their opening weekend.
Even non-food venues got involved in Taste Salisbury this year. Muse Hairdressing collaborated with Artisan Wine & Spirit Co. and The Dusty Apron Bakery to offer cocktails and lunch deals with every appointment. And, Casa Fina and Bohemia offered discounts on certain food and drink related homeware.
Foodies Sunday was another success, rounding off the celebrations with food and drink stalls, demonstrations and entertainment as well as the return of the popular Great Salisbury Bake Off. The winners this year the winner from each category were:
Under 10s
Aged 11 – 18s

Overall, 11 fantastic cakes were entered into the competition which featured a lemon sponge, a floating flower pot cake, a teddy bear cake and many more.
Salisbury BID would like to thank every single business that took part in this year’s Taste Salisbury. There were a huge array of different businesses involved from independent to national and it really did bring Salisbury together.
We hope for an even bigger celebration next year!
