Can’t decide what to have for dinner? On May 7, you don’t have to limit yourself to just one thing.

Taste of Alpharetta 2020, held in historic downtown, will feature fare from more than 60 restaurants — a little something for everyone to choose from.

"Taste of Alpharetta has become an annual tradition for festival goers, families and food connoisseurs. Mark your calendars to dine in Downtown Alpharetta at over 60 restaurants in one fun night," a post on the city's website reads. "Sample delicious appetizers, entrees and desserts from the top chefs in town."

The event, which is free to attend, will also feature culinary demonstrations, entertainment and a variety of activities for all ages.

Instead of cash, the vendors will accept tickets, which can be purchased on site. Most bites ranges from $1-$4.

According to the event’s website, Taste of Alpharetta puts an emphasis on highlighting all “facets of the local food system.” That includes growers, distributors and local chefs.

There will be free parking available and a shuttle to the downtown festival area, but attendees are encouraged to walk or bike if they are able.

For the first time, the event will feature a free bike valet. The festival partnered with Bike Alpharetta, which will coordinate the bike valet.

"Not only is this a wise environmental decision to make but it will also cut down on event traffic and give everyone an opportunity to burn off all the yummy tastes from the evening," a Facebook post for the event reads.

More information on participating vendors and musical performances is expected to be announced soon. The event will be held rain or shine.
