At Alpine Skate Trail we are delighted to have a Food Vendor Village at our site at Fota House & Gardens!
Warm up after a chilling session on the ice with hot chocolate, tea or coffee from Good Fortune who have delicious sweet treats too!
The Crepe Man who has been around Cork for 15 years has delicious sweet and savoury crepes - tough decisions to be made here because they all look delish!

New this year, we have Oak Fire Pizza, a Cork favourite for sure! Handmade on-site, these wood-fired pizzas are a great option - sure who doesn't like pizza?
