Taste of Thame is an exciting annual event that takes place in Thame Town Centre. The aim of Taste of Thame, as well as providing a great event for residents, is to promote the independent and diverse food and drink offering available within Thame and the local area.
Taste of Thame aims to celebrate the amazing food and drink businesses on our doorstep at the same time as encouraging visitors to explore venues in the town centre and learn more about what they have to offer. The event will feature a trail map that encourages participants to move between venues in Thame Town Centre, experiencing new tastes, attending behind the scenes workshops and watching live demonstrations.
