October Unpacked: Food & Drink

OCTOBER UNPACKED: The Taste Trail:  No tricks, just treats this October! As part of October Unpacked 2026, selected restaurants, cafés, pubs and bars across central Brighton will be serving up some special tasters and added value treats throughout the whole month. This could be a small taster portion from their food or drink menu, an October Unpacked 'Special' or maybe buy something and get something extra for free. It's easy; no tickets, wristbands or special codes to show; all payment is made directly to the venue. Follow @octoberunpacked on Instagram for updates and look out for the October Unpacked Taste Taste posters in participating venues.
