Pie Making Experience (Weekdays)
Our Pie Making Experiences involve a talk on the history of Brockleby’s and the Melton Mowbray Pork Pie and the chance to make your very own Melton Mowbray Pork Pie. You can take home your creation on the day, or we can chill it until you’re ready to collect.
Our experiences run during the evening on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and alternate Thursdays from 6:30pm till 8:30pm. Thursday workshops are also available from 10 am til 12 noon with the opportunity to enjoy lunch afterwards in The Pie Shop. We’re able to offer these weekday experiences for just £50 per person or as little as £85 per couple, making it very enjoyable and affordable.
