We recommend supporting some of the many Berwick local businesses during your stay. All of the below businesses are happy to offer water refills. There will be after-hours snacks available at the Golf Club during our Festival Clubs.
For more places to eat, drink and explore you can pick up a Berwick-upon-Tweed Town Map at the BFMAF Info Desk in the Maltings Foyer.
On Sunday 30 March we will be welcoming Big Blu Pizza with their artisan wood-fired pizza van to ensure you go into the closing night film well fed. Find them in the Maltings Cinema car park between 4pm and 8pm!
