Get on the trail to discover what Paisley has to offer
Food and drink maps launched at fest
Two projects have been launched to shine a spotlight on Paisley’s food and drink businesses.
Paisley First has published an illustrated food and drink map showing all the town’s hospitality businesses.
It is also launching Paisley’s Slug in the Bottle Pub Trail, paying homage to the landmark legal case which changed the world by establishing consumer rights.
May Donoghue successfully sued a local ginger beer manufacturer after finding a decomposed slug in her bottle of ginger beer in a Paisley cafe in 1928.
Colette Cardosi, chair of Paisley First, said: “Paisley has a growing food and drink scene and our fantastic hospitality venues are helping to put Paisley firmly on the map.
“We are grateful to our town centre businesses who help fund all our projects as we welcome back families and friends for those all-important days and nights out!”
Both schemes have been launched to coincide with the return of the Paisley Food and Drink Festival, which started yesterday.
The illustrated Food and Drink map highlights venues including cafes, restaurants, bars and the town’s takeaway businesses.
It includes illustrations of more than 20 businesses representing the variety of food and drink on offer, as well as reflecting the geographical spread of hospitality venues throughout the town.
To take part in Paisley’s Slug in the Bottle Pub Trail, collect a slug stamp from ten different participating pubs and bars.
Once you have completed the trail, you will receive an exclusive Slug in the Bottle Pin Badge and be entered into a monthly prize draw to win a £25 hospitality voucher.
Paisley Food and Drink Maps and Paisley’s Slug in the Bottle Pub Trail leaflets can be picked up from the Paisley First leaflet racks in both the Piazza Shopping Centre and the Paisley Centre.
