The Food Vessel culture is a name given by some archaeologists to a culture of northern Britain and Ireland during the Early Bronze Age around 2000-1600 BC.

The name comes from the decorated wide mouthed pottery bowls found in burials of this period, rather like the beakers of the Beaker People. There is far more variety in the forms of Food Vessel than beakers however and they may be derived from earlier, native Neolithic types. Regional groups have been identified along with wider practices such as manufacture of plano-convex flint knives and jet jewellery.

Burial took place under a barrow or cairn and could involve either cremation or inhumation.

Much British megalithic art is associated with the Food Vessel makers including the cup and ring marks found at some megalithic sites.
