About this Event
London Bicentennial Long Table Dinner
July 3, 2026 | The Bicycle Café | 6-9pm
Join us for an intimate evening celebrating 200 years of food, farming, and community in London and Middlesex County.
Set beneath the summer sky on The Bicycle Café patio, this one-night-only Long Table Dinner will feature a ten-course tasting menu inspired by historical recipes, regional agricultural traditions, and the people who helped shape our region over the past two centuries.
Each course offers a contemporary interpretation of heritage ingredients and culinary traditions, paired with Ontario wines, heritage ciders from Heeman's Cellar, and stories from the producers who continue to cultivate Southwestern Ontario today.
Featured producers include:
Heeman's Cellar
