Cocktail Making
9 February '19: After the success of the gin & vodka tasting led by The Oxford Artisan Distillery (TOAD) last year, we thought we would ramp it up with a cocktail making session. It will be lead by Chris Hoare from TOAD. He was previously a bartender at The Milk Bar, so certainly knows how to mix a good cocktail. Expect to try new creations designed specifically for this event |

Festive Wine Tasting
6 December '19: For the second time Rich Hamblin leads a wine tasting at Fidget & Bob. Customers tried a range of wines with the festive season in mind. From easy-drinking crowd-pleasers, to wines for special Christmas meals.

Join Our Tasting & Testing Group
Are you interested in food and drink? If so, would you like to join Fidget & Bob's Tasting & Testing Group?
One of the biggest food seller so far is the All-Day Breakfast Wrap. Dale, our carpenter, suggested we try fresh tomatoes rather than baked beans. This is a controversial change, so we thought why not invite customers for feedback?
So then we got thinking some more.....why not keep a list of people who are interested in testing new things and trying out new products.
If you are interested in joining us and a few others for some food & drinking testing, please fill in the form and we will be in touch when the next tasting group takes place.
