After looking at the Boston Calling 2022 food and drink lineup, one thing’s for sure: No one at the festival is going hungry Memorial Day weekend.

A total of 30 local restaurants, food trucks, and eateries will be serving up a variety of cuisines at this year’s festival, which returns to the Harvard Athletic Complex from May 27-29.

Many holdovers from previous festivals (and 2020’s postponed fest) will take part, including Tasty Burger, Roxy’s Grilled Cheese, and Chicken and Rice Guys. In addition, 10 restaurants will be making their festival debut, including Greek eatery GreCo and Jewish delicatessen Mamaleh’s.

Coming down the coast is Portland, Maine’s mobile sushi bar Mr. Tuna, which will offer fresh sushi for those seeking lighter fare. Offering a mix of healthy and decadent is The Farmacy Cafe, which currently serves rice and salad bowls plus “Naughty Waffles” — served with bananas, Nutella, and other sweet toppings — at the recently opened High Street Place.

Craving a fried chicken sandwich? Head to Walloons. Looking for tacos? Try El Pelon Taqueria. Want some quintessential New England cuisine? Lobster Proper will have a variety of lobster rolls.

Platinum ticket holders, meanwhile, will have access to specialty menus curated by some of the city’s top chefs. Friday will have food served up by Chef Cory Seeker (Lolita Cocina & Tequila Bar) and Chef Miguel Deras (Mariel). Saturday has meals from restaurateur duo Chris Coombs and Adrienne Wright (Deuxave, dBar, Boston Chops). Sunday finishes up with food from Colin Lynch (Bar Mezzana, Shore Leave).
