Wimbledon Fever hits Royal William Yard

To celebrate Wimbledon Royal William Yard will have a tennis twist for the next two weeks.

The award-winning Good Food Market will feature Wimbledon cookies from Karen’s Cakes as well as great local produce from local traders this Sunday, July 2nd around the Factory Cooperage or on the Lawn.

The monthly market, which hosts over 60 regular stallholders, is now the biggest food market in the area. The Good Food Market, a regular destination for South West ‘foodies’, will offer a host of local food and drink suppliers and producers at the new location of Factory Cooperage and this time it will have a Wimbledon twist! Local produce will include Bean Bug, Bell and Loxton.The Olly Lolly company will also be attending offering a wide range of their refreshing ice lollies including flavours such as Blueberry Lemonade and Mango and Raspberry. These ice lollies are low in sugar and made with fresh fruit so not only do they taste great but they are a guilt free treat!

From Monday the 3rd of July Royal William yard will be showing Wimbledon matches every day on the big screen on the green, with everything you need to enjoy the tournament including deckchairs, champagne and strawberries.

Emily Handslip Director of Urban Splash said: “We want everyone to come and get a bit of Wimbledon action at Royal William Yard. Try out a Wimbledon food treat at The Good Food market or chill out on the green watching our big screen.”

People who want to enjoy a fantastic lunch while at the market or watching Wilmbledon, can also use the brand new Yard Card, launched for the public and regular visitors to receive exclusive discounts from many of the restaurants and retailers inside Royal William Yard.
