Josser

This spring and summer, St. Michael's Park in Cirencester is set to become a vibrant hub of community, connection, and exceptional food, thanks to the arrival of Josser. Founded by "The Circus Chef" Ols and his partner Amber, Josser is their personally converted circus truck, transformed into a professional kitchen and cosy home for them, their baby Zeph, and their dog Steve. From 9 April to 21 September, Josser will be bringing delicious food, sunshine, and good times to the heart of Cirencester.

A feast for every occasion

Josser offers a diverse array of culinary experiences, catering to every appetite throughout the day:

Brunch Under Canvas ∙ Weekends begin with an unforgettable brunch experience under their canvas awning. Guests can indulge in nurturing and delightful dishes designed to set them up for a day of fun, all while breathing in the fresh morning air mingled with the aroma of coffee and sizzling bacon. The communal oak tables invite relaxation and good company.

A Night in the Park: Dinner Under Canvas ∙ For those who value imagination and quality, Josser offers an intimate and memorable four-course dinner under a starlit canvas. As dusk falls, fairy lights guide guests to the roaming restaurant. This unique, high-quality dining experience begins with a chilled drink by the firepit, leading to communal oak tables dressed with fresh herbs and candlelight. Platters of roasted meats and vibrant local vegetables are served with surprising and delightful touches, making every guest feel like family in this "secret garden" setting.

The J Kiosk ∙ For a quick refuel, The J Kiosk is the go-to spot. It serves freshly baked cakes, legendary falafel wraps, and "the best bacon sandwiches," alongside high-quality coffee and local juices, perfect for takeaway.

 

Beyond the plate ∙ Community & Wellness

Josser's presence in St. Michael's Park extends beyond just dining, fostering a true sense of community and well-being:

Dinner with Friends ∙ On the first Saturday of every month, Josser hosts unique chef takeovers and culinary collaborations. Local gastronomic gurus are invited to unleash their creativity in the circus truck kitchen, offering unique menus, tips, and tricks, and fostering new friendships among foodies.

Yoga in the Park ∙ Amber leads rejuvenating yoga sessions for adults, while children can enjoy imagination-filled classes. All sessions are followed by a complimentary herbal tea at the Josser restaurant, perfectly blending wellness with culinary comfort.

Community Events ∙ Josser actively participates in various community events held in St. Michael's Park throughout the spring and summer. They enhance these gatherings with their signature culinary flair, ensuring The J Kiosk is open and offering special treats and surprises.
