Pork Pie Workshops with Ye Olde Pork Pie Shoppe
17 October 2025 @ 2:00 pm - 3:15 pm
| £30Indulge in Melton Mowbray’s finest pork pie experience!
With over 170 years of expertise and craft behind us, we know a thing or two about making Pork Pies.
Discover the fascinating story of how the area became associated with the famous pork pie, Stilton cheese, hunting and exactly why an authentic Melton Mowbray pork pie is so unique.
One of our bakers will then give a step-by-step demonstration on how a hand-raised pork pie was traditionally made before giving you the chance to make your very own with personalised pastry initials on top. All made with 100% British outdoor-bred pork and hot water crust pastry.
After the workshop we chill your pie overnight, bake fresh the next morning, and you are welcome to return and collect it. Alternatively, we can deliver pies to 1 set location via our courier.
