Popular Friday night food takeovers returning to Kenilworth this spring and summer

Kenilworth's much-loved independent distillery, East Chase Distillers, has unveiled its upcoming line-up of Friday night food takeover events which run on the last Friday of every month with a few extras over the summer.
Following a run of sell-out evenings over the past year, the distillery will once again join forces with a variety of local independent food vendors to bring an exciting mix of street food, gin, vodka and great company to East Chase Farm.
This season's events promise an eclectic mix of global flavours — from bold South Asian small plates and authentic Greek dishes to freshly-fired pizzas and indulgent loaded fries.
Co-founder Luke Weetman shared his excitement: "The support for these nights has been incredible.
"What started as a way to try something new during quieter months has now become a core part of who we are.
"We love teaming up with other independents and giving people a reason to come out, connect, and enjoy something local."

Advance table reservations are highly recommended, as previous events have frequently sold out.
Past collaborators have included much-loved names like Tapas Zampa and Mrs Patels.
Founded in late 2022 by two school friends, East Chase Distillers was born from a pub conversation and a shared passion for craft spirits.

After years of planning, the duo opened their distillery at East Chase Farm, launching with their signature Heritage Gin.
Since then, they have expanded to offer a full range of premium gins and, in 2024, introduced three new vodka blends — Premium Standard, Wild Berries, and Orange & Passionfruit — crafted using their world-class Holstein still.
