Hungry visitors to this year’s Southport Comedy Festival will be able to get some Satisfaction – thanks to a classy new street food outlet called The Rollin Stove.
The food trailer was opened earlier this year by well-known local restaurateur Sandy McKenzie, the former owner of The Latin Lounge in Southport, and her business partner Kerry Toft.
The Rollin Stove has already been enjoying rave reviews after operating in the grounds of Jewson’s Builders at Meols Cop Bridge in High Park.
They have also popped up at the recent Southport Disco Festival, and are looking forward to feeding visitors throughout the 17-day Southport Comedy Festival this October.
This year’s 10th anniversary Festival takes place at Victoria Park in Southport from 1st October to 17th October.
Top class acts include: Russell Kane, Rich Hall, Jason Byrne, Reginald D Hunter, Jo Caulfield, Tom Stade, Ed Byrne, Mark Thomas, Paul Sinha, Tez Ilyas, Luisa Omielan, Hal Cruttenden, Geoff Norcott, Steve Royle, Helen Bauer, Troy Hawke, Katie Tracey, and David Eagle. Tickets are now on sale.
The Rollin Stove produces freshly cooked food while sourcing the best local ingredients.
The chips are hand-cut each day, while meat is provided by quality local butchers.
Sandy McKenzie said: “When Kerry and I bought it, we decided to go down the route of serving fresh produce, using locally bought food.
“We make our own burgers, we make our own fries, we make our food fresh every day.
“Our fries and our loaded fries are going down very well indeed.

“I am glad this event is going to be happening after it was sadly postponed last year.”

The name for The Rollin Stove was inspired by Sandy’s son.
She said: “We were just thinking that our food trailer was like being an oven on wheels. My son said to me ‘why don’t you call it the Rollin Stove?’
“It has been a very hard 18 months for small businesses. It is good to see them coming back, and for events like Southport Comedy Festival to be back on again, in such a great setting.
“Victoria Park is such a beautiful park. I am glad to see it being used again for big events.”
Southport Comedy Festival Director Brendan Riley said: “With less than a month to go, this is now D-Day for us! Tickets are already selling very well.
“This is the strongest Comedy Festival line-up we have had, we are really looking forward to it.
“Guests can enjoy 16 shows across 17 days between 1st October and 17th October – every night is a headline act!
“Please come out and enjoy some superb live comedy.”
The Southport Comedy Festival in association with Anthony James Estate Agents is supported by many local businesses.
