The Cumbrian Food Hall team has spoken 🔥

Everyone’s got a different BBQ favourite, but we can all agree on one thing - a bank holiday BBQ just hits different 🍔☀️

Our counters and shelves are stocked with beautifully tender, locally sourced spring lamb – perfect for the warmer days.

It’s known for its delicate flavour and tenderness, making it perfect for lighter springtime meals. Think slow roast one day, fresh seasonal salad the next 👌

Pop in and take a look!

Turns out winning Best Cold Pie in Britain comes with a camera crew 👀🥧

Our award-winning Pork & Apple Pie stole the Cold Pie spotlight at the Q Guild Smithfield Awards - and ITV Border popped by to see what all the fuss was about.

So here’s a little behind-the-scenes look at the filming day featuring James, Janice and Hazel trying their best to look natural on camera (we think they smashed it, personally 😂)

From the kitchens to the Food Hall, we’re still incredibly proud to bring home this national title - and even prouder of the brilliant team behind it.

Safe to say… the pie’s got a bit of a celebrity status now ⭐
