Best Food / Worst Food 2022

[Mark0]

Had some Caribbean Chicken and Chips near the West Holts stage which was simply amazing 

[DirtyLurker]

Kebab Cartel (Gansta Granny😉), famous around the Midlands, def best keebab, ever!

 

[The Red Telephone]

The Vegan Fried Chicken place was ace. Also enjoyed, as always, No Bone Jones.

Best cup of tea on site? The Masala Chai from the little tent by the Tipi Field - The   Beloved Arms. Also great vegan cake and lovely staff.

Still quite hard to get a decent of lager on site - The Elephant had great San Miguel and I got a pint of Carlsberg Export from somewhere. Other than that, slim picking.

had some really nice meals over the festival, although can't remember half the food outlet names..

VFC was pretty good near the Bread & Roses, even for a meat eater the burger tasted great.
Rotisserie half chicken with potatoes, gravy and stuffing near williams green was great. Also the wood fired pizza place at williams green was also very nice. 
Had some pretty nice noodles from the other stage, it was to the left handside of the 5 somosas place.

 

[Simsy]

Best: rendang curry by truth stage.

Worst: cold, oily churros near West Holts.

[Brunty9]

Best: Pad Thai (near the BBC introducing stage. Probably the best Pad Thai I've ever had. 

Worst: The Burger place about 3 stalls up from the Pad Thai place mentioned above. Probably the worst burger I've ever had.

I didn’t buy anywhere near as much food as normal because of queues but as always really enjoyed The Gravy Train Poutine. 
 

I didn’t really have anything that was bad but often had some slightly more boring options because they had less of a queue. 

[Spindles]

Best was the coconut curry opposite BBC introducing, I have no worst to offer as everything I ate was quality.

[Isaact]

Worst - salt beef bagel around the corner from west holts.

Just slices of roast beef with zero salt in an uncooked bagel. 

Only ate a quarter, it was absolutely rancid.

[BL1ND T1G3R]

I had this from a place called Bunny something or other I think it was - by Other/Silver Hayes - South African street dish apparently.  Half a loaf filled with hot chilli, a dollop of sour cream and a garlic crouton. Long drops were hard work the next day but decent portion for £10

[reallife]

Indian Fish and Chips at West Holtz ~ BEST

Crumpets from the black van near The Park - WORST

 

[mikegday]

Masala.  I got Masala meatballs and it was incredible! Pure comfort food and good value too

[Splatt]

BEST: Duck Truck (close runner up the Worthy Farm Toasties)

WORST: Burger from stall at rear of other (right hand side looking towards stage)

I was expecting proper norf London thickarse salt beef, and got rubbery strips. Unimpressed for £11. Should’ve looked at other peoples servings really

I'm not whether that would be from a binding perspective (carb load) or fizzy arse gravy perspective (chilli).

Sorry for lowering the tone. I attended with WaterAid where conversations are never far away from folks bowel movements.

I loved the little pots of sushi rice, chicken pickled veg and kimchi from around the bandstand area. Also the crispy duck wraps. Had to finish off Sunday with a Goan fish curry which was superb. One gripe and not because the food was bad was the bad organisation in the Tea Bus. Appreciate they are very busy though.

[Pipine]

I can’t remember the name but there was a taco place (pink sign) on the JP side of the main markets (I think!) which did spicy belly pork tacos which were absolutely amazing.. I had them twice.

They were next to another BBQ wrap place which was also amazing according to friends who ate there.

All the food I had this year was lovely

[FuzzyDunlop]

This was the place for anyone unsure...

[kraken_89]

Maybe it’s because I live in Bristol and we have great food vendors here, but I thought the food at Glasto was bang average. Didn’t have anything impressive at all. 
 

People on here always go on about how great the food is there, I don’t understand that at all. 

[gfa]

I got a burrito on the way to JP from like BBC introducing (Mexico Joes i think based off card statement) which was fantastic, incredibly filling for £9.50. By getting some breakfast stuff from the co-op and not buying a single drink all festival i spent a grand total of ~ £80 inside the gates!

I think this year was less impressive than previous years for me. A little less variety (how many MC and Cheese and burger stands do we really need?), some losses etc. By "prepping"  a bit, reading discussions here for example, always checking out what punters get from a stand before buying, etc you can keep it great. But yes, it's not a wonderland where you can just pick the first stall you see and be amazed.

This is the first year I went fully vegetarian, vegan if you don't count a cheese slip up and the crumble shack. I had wonderful food.

[benc]

The queues for food seemed way longer this year and I refused to queue that much - so this had an impact on my food choices this year

Worst - Jerk Chicken between pyramid and Williams green.. perhaps I caught them at the wrong time but the chicken was dry

Honorable mentions..

Caribbean Fried Chicken on West Holts

Katsu - Chicken Katsu - maybe between Greenpeace / west holts?
