No trip to the festive market would be complete without a comically large Bratwurst sausage in a roll, slathered with mustard and ketchup. This year, the classic German pork banger will set you back £6, although you can add an extra £1 if you go the whole hog and have the cheese Krakhauer - a red pork sausage with bacon and cheese on top.

Sticking with the piggy theme, The Hog Roast stall is charging £7.50 for roast pork in a round roll or £8.50 in a long roll. Add BBQ sauce and honey and it will be another £1, with cheesy chips an extra £4. Over at Loaded Donuts, the toffee fudge delight is £7, as is the Malteser Magic with its chocolate sauce and crunchy pieces of Malteser.

The cabin next door is selling Belgian hot chocolate for £6. There are eight different flavours on offer including salted caramel and Black Forest. If you want your warming drinks made with oat, almond or soya milk, it’s an extra £1.

One of the most popular stalls over the years has been Yorkshire Pudding Wrap. It’s cash only this time - most of the other stalls have card machines - and the cheapest option is the standard roast pork at £9 a pop.

If it’s pancakes you’re craving, Crepes & Waffles has a full range of sweet and savoury crepes. The classic sugar and lemon is £5, with Nutella and banana at £7. The ham, cheese and mushroom crepe is £8. For vegetarians and vegans, Wrap It has it covered with falafels, meatless hot dogs and skin-on fries. They also serve a toasted wrap comprising ‘vegetarian chicken’, stuffing, cranberry sauce, gravy and red cabbage for £8.50.

After spending so much on food, you’ll be in need of a stiff drink but with a pint of Pilsner Urquell at £6, cider at £5.50 and a small paper cup of mulled wine at £5, a round of drinks for friends or family may not bring so much festive cheer.
