My husband and I had a great time! There was a good balance of a lot of vendors and not too many people, so lines weren't too long. Will definitely go again.
I’ve been 5-7 times. Same entertainment even similar vendors in the same area. Thankfully we’re going to Richmond festival this week.
The beer selection and food were amazing as always. My only recommendation is that an announcement for "last call"be made so that patrons have a chance to visit their favorite brewery for a final drink before the event ends. See you next year.
The addition of the outside beer garden was a nice touch. The food and drinks were great and we will go again. The only change i would make is not to have so many booths in the one corner of the second floor. It is co crowded most of the time it is difficult to move
Lines were not too long, service was quick at all the stations, overall a fantastic experience!!
Not the event for you if you have any dietary restrictions. Signage about ingredients at each table would be helpful. Also vendors needed more food. All were out within 2 hours of the 3-hour event. There was no engraver on the third floor despite it being listed. It would have been helpful to alleviate the line at the engraver on the stage. Also add lanyards for participants to hold their glass around their neck since most food samples required 2 hands and there weren’t enough tables to set them down.
We had a great time at the Bull City Beer and Food Experience. The only suggestion i have for next time is the have the event time advertised match the actual. The event was advertised as 4-8 and last call was called at 7. There was plenty of time to eat/drink but if someone decided to attend the second half they would be disappointed
Excelled event with great food and beer pairings. We’ve been to similar events that were a mess and challenging to get to the vendors. Bill City food and beer did not have that issue and we were able to get to every vendor. I’d recommend this event and plan to go back next year. Great job to all involved
The food as amazing, beer was flowing, tickets were not over sold so the lines (if any) weren’t horrendous…This event was fabulous!!! We will certainly be back!
More food and beer than one knows what to do with!!
