Goldenberg’s Peanut Chews

Started in Philadelphia in 1917, Goldenberg’s Peanut Chews are a true hometown classic, woven into the city’s history and flavor.

At Food Fest, Peanut Chews teams up with Philly’s own Chef Jennifer Carroll for a one-day-only collaboration that celebrates local pride through sweet and savory bites with a gourmet twist, available exclusively at the festival.

Surfside

From the makers of Philadelphia’s own Stateside Vodka, Surfside has become the region’s go-to drink with its refreshingly simple lineup of iced tea + vodka and lemonade + vodka. Surfside brings crisp flavor and serious hometown energy to Food Fest.

Need a breather between tastings? Head to the Surfside Bar for a chilled vodka lemonade or iced tea, and soak in the laid-back, feel-good spirit that defines Philly.

Jacquin’s

Founded in Philadelphia in 1884, Jacquin’s is America’s oldest cordial producer and a cornerstone of the city’s craft beverage scene. Still rooted in tradition but driven by innovation, Jacquin’s is proud to serve at Food Fest.

Together with Dietz & Watson, Jacquin’s is shaking things up with a pickle-vodka Bloody Mary that’s bold, briny, and full of flavor — the kind of cocktail that cuts through the noise and wakes up your palate.

Sharing Excess

Born on a college campus in Philly and grown into a national movement, Sharing Excess fights food waste and food insecurity by redirecting surplus ingredients to communities in need. As our Sustainability Partner, they ensure Food Fest gives back by rescuing unused food and redistributing it responsibly.
