Taste of Hoover

Taste of Hoover gathers local restaurants and caterers for an evening of food and drink samples in Aldridge Gardens, with live music and string lights over the paths. Past and current vendors include Board in Birmingham, Grimaldi’s Pizza and Saw’s BBQ.

This year’s event is Thursday, October 15, from 5 to 8 p.m. One $50 ticket covers all food and drink vendors, and garden members pay $45. Parking at the gardens is limited, so a shuttle runs from the Trader Joe’s lot at Riverchase Shopping Center. The event often sells out, so buy tickets ahead through Aldridge Gardens.
