This month saw the first event hosted by our Northamptonshire & Leicestershire group. The evening included a fascinating talk and tour of the award-winning Warner’s Distillery in Harrington.

Networking why?

I am often asked why I started Grub Club Cambridge and the answer is simple. I was feed up of going to networking events that were full of life coaches and accountants (nothing against either of them).

Having worked in the food industry for a number of years I felt that there was a gap in the market for our events.

Mayo just got even better….

We’ve been great fans of Foraging Fox for some time now – we love how their innovation in flavour really excites the condiments sector. Since launching the multi award-winning Beetroot Ketchups in 2015, Foraging Fox has gone from strength to strength, and 2018 has been a very exciting year as they launched their first range of three natural flavoured mayos.

Grub Club Cambridge on Tour in Bedford

Don’t Just Network – Get Involved

As you may be aware Grub Club Cambridge recently celebrated it’s 3rd birthday. The aim of Grub Club Cambridge was always to get foodies together, chat, network and collaborate to make amazing things happen. During our quarterly networking dinners we have visited a vast array of wonderful establishments, provided a host of inspiring speakers and not to mention, enjoyed the most amazing food and drink along the way. But have you ever thought how could you get more exposure at the events? Have you considered becoming more involved?
