thanks for that info. I went there last night, and I think it might have been the best fish and chips I’ve ever had. Nice tip
For a touristy town Whitby has great food. We visited a fab pie and mash shop, a good Italian, and a delicious Thai. We also had two good Indian takeaways. Oh, and a couple of tasty pork pies
Whitby’s a great little seaside resort. Much nicer than it’s equivalents in the South West IMO.
Meh, I sometimes dream of a ‘Clark’s pie(Redfield Brother) but I think they are long gone.
Need an ex-pat over here to stop sunning there arses and get back baking 🙂
Well it seems Scotland (some Greggs on the edge of Dundee) has let me down. I've never actually been to Gregg's up here.
Wife came home from work yesterday with a sausage roll for my son and a steak bake for me. I asked if they didn't have any corned beef pasties, and she said no or I'd have got you one 😞
As an aside it was as she was on her way back from dropping my cardiac monitor off at the hospital. I had a little sleep over there last Thursday night due to a badly misfiring heart, but it's not pasties and pies blocking my pipes, it's internal electrical issues, so we can all breathe a sigh of relief and keep eating them 🤣
I actually had calcium scoring 5 years back which came back as zero, so pipes were all clean as a whistle, then atleast.
See also Roy Porter Butchers in Chatburn, Lancashire. Amazing pork pies (and pretty much everything else).
I have now seen and I can confirm that they make very tasty pork pies indeed.
We're lucky here in our part of West Yorkshire as we have excellent local farm shops who make great pork pies
Over the weekend I got a Walker's pork pie in the Hexham Waitrose. Oh my God it was good!! Amazing pastry
Highly recommended by me (a porky pig)

You used to get a great pork pie in elite meats in star beck.
If memory serves me correct.

We often get a Walker's. Excellent pies, great hill food.
We had a Walkers at Christmas and it was very good.
Topping's pies from Booths have been disappointing on the last few occasions.
Instead of a wedding cake we had a 3 tier pork pie from Cannon Hall farm shop.
Honorable mention to Percy Turner too for outstanding services to pies.
Can I just check, is anyone else putting all these pie shops as geographical reminders in their phones so that it reminds me when I get near to one?
@alanf - Bolster Moor farm shop do layered pork pie wedding cakes too
They make bloody good pork pies
Now a post i can finally get behind!!!
The best one i have had recently was from Daylesford Organics.....it was absolutely stunning! I savoured every single mouthful!
In a similar neck of the woods I’d add in Kendall’s butchers in Pately Bridge
I can now confirm that this is true.
