“This rounds off what has been a fantastic year for the Marina as a business – we have once again been recognised in the Great Taste Awards and are about to launch a brand new events venue that holds full licenses for weddings and civil partnership ceremonies, so we’re all very excited about what the future holds.”
From fresh local produce to speciality ingredients and foodie gifts, Aston Marina’s Farm Shop and Deli is a true ‘foodie haven’. Its deli counter has been voted among the top 10 “Best British Cheese Counters”, while its butchery specialises only in meat and game reared within a 20-mile radius and to the highest standards of animal welfare.
To consolidate its growing reputation as a Staffordshire foodie hotspot, the Marina has entered the Farm Shop & Deli Awards – public voting closes on 31st October.
