Thousands of people savoured one of Pembrokeshire's premier events when they joined in the fun of the annual Narberth Food Festival at the weekend.
Now in its 14th year, the award-winning festival attracts visitors and stallholders from Pembrokeshire and beyond with its lively mix of food, fun and entertainment.
Saturday's sunshine saw bumper crowds pouring into the festival site, with many people enjoying their food and drink al fresco to accompany the offerings from the music stage.
And inside the festival's massive marquee, there was plenty more food, glorious food to taste and tempt throughout the weekend, while top chefs cooked up a storm in the Food Theatre, with crowds enjoying their personalities as well as their culinary skills.
Amongst them were festival patron Angela Gray and Deri Reed - 'The Ethical Chef' - who went head-to-head in the entertaining Low Carbon Cook-Off, with Angela emerging the winner on an audience taste-test.
And as a curtain-raiser to the event, children from Narberth, Templeton and Brynconin schools, plus a group of hearing-impaired youngsters from Carmarthenshire, enjoyed an Education Day packed with fun food activities on the theme of The Big F, including a talk from Folly Farm on feeding animals.
Narberth butcher Andrew Rees, who always creates a special sausage for the festival, served and sold 3,000 of his pork, Stilton and black pepper creations.
"It's been really busy all weekend - absolutely immense," he said.
Narberth's county councillor, Wynne Evans, was one of the not-for-profit festival's volunteers.
"This has got to be one of the most marvellous events that Pembrokeshire hosts," he said.
"I've spoken to people who have come from all over west and south Wales, and I'm delighted with the continued success of the festival."
Added Narberth Food Festival chairman Lynne Crompton: "The stallholders have been really pleased, the demonstrations have been packed, and we've had plenty going on for everyone, which proves we are a really family-friendly, all-weather event."
