Top 7 Must Eats at Moreton Bay's Biggest Food Festival
This year’s Moreton Bay Food + Wine Festival is built on four key pillars: EAT. DRINK. ENJOY. REPEAT.
And, with more than 70, that’s right SEVENTY, food vendors attending the festival, we figured it would be best to share them with you – and highlight some of what you’ll be able to expect when you come celebrate with us.
The phrase “something for everyone” gets thrown around a lot in the foodie world, but with this many options you better believe us when we say that’s what you can expect. In fact, there’s probably a fair few “somethings” for everything – even the pickiest amongst you.
There’ll be pasta, burgers, fresh seafood, vegan-options, options that are nothing but meat, sweets, treats, and hard to beats (and that’s without counting the take-home options).
