A true hidden gem. Hidden in plain sight! During the recent heatwave I was heading through Keswick and spotted a blackboard advertising home made pies ( and homemade Lemonade – very nice on this day when the temperatures were just above 30 degrees ) . Why hadn’t I seen this before?  Mrs F’s Fine Food …

I’d been looking forward to this for a while. Following a visit a few weeks ago this pie had sat in my freezer for far too long and now was the day to do the tasting.  The pie, another one from the Eagles Crag Crusty Pie Company, I had purchased from Holmes Mill in Clitheroe. …

Although our media presence has been absent (problems with computers I hear!) our Pie eating has not stopped. During the past year I have been renovating an old Chapel type building in the Lake District and my ‘go to’ cafe for lunch and breaks has been The Old Post Office Tea Room at Troutbeck. It …

Pies Around The World

You don’t just go to Lisbon to attend the NOS Alive music festival, but to also sample and savour the miniature chicken ( or salmon ) pies. Locally they are known as ‘empanadas’ and succulent they are too! We were staying in the Principe Real district just a stone’s throw from the Doce Real Café …

I’ve discovered another true local bakery, Browns bakery of Heywood.  From my own experience, if you don’t know where Browns Bakery is, in what to me was the labyrinth of streets near Pilsworth road, you would miss it.  And that would be a shame. I was greeted with the cheery banter of Val. I went …

It’s been some time since I had seen any of work colleagues (that’s if you don’t count the fuzzy broken images on Zoom into account).  So when we had an impromptu get together out towards Widnes I also took the opportunity to dive into the farm shop that is attached to Harefield Coffee Barn just …

As an Organisation we’ve been fortunate at the British Pie Association to have previously sampled produce from To-Pie-for, the Warrington and Manchester based Artisan bakers.  We always buy our pies so that we can remain independent and not feel obliged to give glowing reviews, so when we heard they were going to brave the winter weather …
