Don't Miss Your Chance to Enjoy Michelin-star Cooking - and Help Fight Cancer
Sample street food from Michelin-starred chefs for just £10 a go - all while raising money for a great cause
Last year, BiteBack raised an incredible £82,063, and they’re hoping to do even better this year as SecondBite 2025 returns to Newcastle’s Wylam Brewery on 6th July.
A stellar line-up of 20 of the UK’s leading multi-award-winning Michelin-starred chefs has been signed up, and seriously tasty street food dishes are being planned. Like last year’s mega event, SecondBite has been designed to take each chef out of their regular kitchen environment and instead will see them wow paying guests with their unique and individual takes on street food dishes.
Each carefully-curated dish will provide guests with a distinctly different insight into each of these acclaimed chefs' different styles. With only 500 portions of each dish available on the day, diners will need to be quick to be in with a chance of securing their chosen dishes. The event is free entry, and dish tokens can be purchased in advance and are priced at £10.
As well as a stellar chef line-up there will also be DJs and a special online auction, which will see some amazing foodie experiences up for grabs.
All proceeds from SecondBite will be donated to Cancer Research UK to help support over 4,000 researchers, clinicians, and nurses to transform how they help prevent, diagnose and treat cancer, bringing hope to millions of people, now and in the future.
‘BiteBack 2024 was an amazing success, but we want to go even further and make this year’s event SecondBite bigger and better and by doing that we hope to raise even more funds to support Cancer Research UK in their early diagnosis research,’ says Siân Byerley, co-owner of Pine.
‘We all know someone who has been impacted by this illness, which is one of the reasons why we think it’s vital to help this amazing charity in all that they do to fight this disease. Please come and join us and buy lots of tokens on the day!’
The 2025 line-up includes Chet Sharma (BiBi, London) Gareth Ward (Ynyshir), Tom Shepherd (Restaurant Upstairs, Lichfield, and main course winner of Great British Menu 2023 with Desperate Dan’s Cow Pie), Ian Waller (head chef of Restaurant Pine), Alex Nietosvuori (Hjem), Will Lockwood (Roots), Josh Overington and Jamie Keeble (Myse), Johnnie Crowe (St. Barts), and Paul Leonard (The Forest Side).
