Napoleon knew what he was talking about when he said an army marches on its stomach. Keeping your troops well nourished ensures they’re equipped to endure the hardships that come with being a soldier.
Obviously there’s no hardship involved in revelling at the ABR Festival. You won’t find an enlistment tent anywhere either, and while we certainly don’t want any recreations of Waterloo breaking out, the sentiment of what the Little Corporal said is not lost on us.
So when legions of motorcyclists descend on Ragley Hall in June, we guarantee they’re certainly not going to be struggling for sustenance.
The ABR Food Festival
When your stomach rumbles or you need a little pick me up of the non-alcoholic variety, you’ll find more than 60 vendors serving a huge selection of delicious street food and refreshing drinks at the ABR Festival, with every cuisine and taste covered.
Is your morning porridge non-negotiable? Head to the Jolly Pedlar.
Fancy the dirtiest toastie you’ve ever had? Check out That’s Mature.
Can’t see past a curry for tea? Ruby Murray have got your back.
Whether it’s Caribbean, Chinese, German, Greek, Indian, Italian, Korean, Mexican, Nepalese, Thai or Turkish fare you’re seeking, it will be waiting for you.
And of course, you’ll be well taken care of when it comes to the finest fish and chips and the tastiest burgers.
Whatever it is you need to keep on marching, you’ll find it at the ABR Street Food Market.
Wet Your Whistle
With 20 different bars located across Lakeside and the Exhibitor Village, you’ll never be far away from liquid refreshment.
And in case you missed it before, you’ll be able to get a pint for less than the £5 UK average at all times.
Happy Hour this year has been designated as 4pm-6pm at the Beak and Pannier (Exhibitor Village) and 6pm-7pm at the Spada Bar (Lakeside). Get a round in at either of these times and you’ll be paying as little as £3.50 for a lager.
The best place to pick up a pint while you’re onsite will be the Spada Bar.
Located in Lakeside and set back from the BikerHeadz stage, this 40 metre long bar offers a wide selection of refreshing beers, ales and spirits for you to enjoy.
With an army of hands behind the bar ready to pour, you’ll be served in no time at all, even during the busiest times of the day.
And once you’ve got the round in, you’ll find plenty of seats out front for you and your pals to sit and soak up the atmosphere.
If you’re a little more particular about what you imbibe, we’ve added a number of specialist bars to satisfy the most discerning tastes.
All you have to do is wonder down by the ZERO Silent Disco and you’ll find craft ales and ciders, a whisky bar, a gin bar and a Tiki bar serving delectable cocktails.
Bottoms up!
