Pub in the Park is back, and this time, it’s bigger, tastier, and more London than ever. Launching its new location in Gunnersbury Park from 30th May to 1st June 2025, this three-day feast promises to be a celebration of everything that makes the capital’s gastropub scene legendary. Curated by none other than Tom Kerridge, the festival combines Michelin-star-worthy food, banging live music, and some of the biggest names in the food industry.

With a line-up featuring top gastropubs like The Grazing Goat, The Tamil Prince, and The Butcher’s Tap & Grill, alongside culinary royalty Michel Roux, Sabrina Ghayour, and Tom Brown, this is a foodie event you can’t afford to miss. Add Ministry of Sound Classical and Jack Savoretti to the mix, and you’ve got yourself a proper London party.

The London Gastro Pub Scene Takes Centre Stage

The heart of this year’s Pub in the Park is a celebration of London’s gastropubs. Gunnersbury Park will play host to a stellar line-up of culinary talent, bringing together established favourites and rising stars. Expect mouthwatering dishes from The Bull & Last in Highgate, viral Desi sensation The Tamil Prince, and Chelsea’s own The Butcher’s Tap & Grill.

James Cochran is making waves with his latest venture, The Brave, offering a bold take on British gastropub classics. Meanwhile, Tom Brown of Michelin-starred Cornerstone fame will channel his East London vibe with seafood delights from his new spot, Pearly Queen.

Meet the Chef Royalty and Food Gurus

The festival doesn’t stop at food—it’s a full-on celebration of culinary culture. Chef royalty Michel Roux will host Saturday and Sunday nights, while Tom Kerridge kicks off the festivities on Friday. Expect live demos, Q&A sessions, and plenty of banter with top chefs like Ben Tish and Persian cuisine icon Sabrina Ghayour.

If that’s not enough, food critic Grace Dent will be dishing out hot takes, and The Financial Times’ Jay Rayner will share insights, sign books, and even perform live with The Jay Rayner Sextet. Yes, you read that right—he’s got a band too.

Live Music to Keep the Vibes High

This isn’t just a food festival; it’s a full-on weekend extravaganza. Get ready to dance the night away with Ministry of Sound Classical, Soul II Soul, Norman Jay, and Judge Jules. Jack Savoretti will also be serenading the crowd, making sure your food coma comes with the perfect soundtrack.
