PROMOTING LOCAL & INDEPENDENT RESTAURANTS
The Festival allows Barrie’s residents to try a diversity of delicious culinary experiences in our city. Locallicious is geared toward promoting the smaller independent restaurants, each with their own unique flavours and style. The Locallicious Festival celebrates our local restaurants and the unique culinary experiences they offer, that just can’t be found at a chain or franchise restaurant.
A fixed-price menu of $15 – $35 per person, will be offered at each location, providing great food for a great value. Menu will include an appetizer, soup or salad with an entrée and a dessert.
When Barrie ran it’s first Barrielicious we had about 16 participating restaurants. The event became so popular that by the fourth year of the festival well over 50 restaurants were involved.
