Chance to join trail for coffee or real ale
THE Huddersfield Live! Real Ale and Coffee Trails are encouraging people to venture into some of our town’s best pubs and coffee shops.
The campaign is by the not for profit events company Huddersfield Live! which runs the town’s annual four day food and drink festival in August.
Last year it saw 125,000 revellers attracted to St George’s Square for the ever-popular festival.
The trails started on July 1 and will continue until Sunday, August 5.
Huddersfield Live! chairman Sam Watt said: “As we quite often have our meetings in the fabulous coffee shops in town we realised how lucky we are in Huddersfield to have so many independent businesses.
“Therefore, we would like to shout about it to the rest of the visitors that venture into town by way of doing a Coffee Trail.
“Participants will call into each outlet with their printed sheet at their own leisure throughout the month and indulge in a lovely cup of coffee or a pint of real ale.
“Once a drink has been purchased the outlet will then pop a stamp against their business name to validate that you have visited and had a drink.
“When all the stamps have been collected, in August you will be able to hand your leaflet into Coffee Evolution and claim your branded coffee travel mug. Please note these will be subject to availability so be quick!”
People can people pick up a leaflet from one of the pubs or coffee shops, involved, cut out the ones printed here or download and print one out from the Huddersfield Live website https:// huddersfieldlive.co.uk or at the Examiner website by following this link https://bit.ly/2lSDJWn
