🚗🏍️ WHAT A TURNOUT! 🏍️🚗

A massive THANK YOU to everyone who turned up, showed up, rode up… and ate up this Sunday, just gone!

Another fantastic turnout for our Classic Motor & Motorcycle Rally here at The Carpenters Arms. ❤️

The breakfast cobs certainly didn’t hang around! 🥓🍳 And with lashings of tea and coffee to keep everyone going ☕️🫖, it was brilliant to see so many familiar faces, fantastic classic cars and beautiful bikes gathered together once again. 🚘🏍️✨

Your continued support is always hugely appreciated and it’s you lot who make these mornings what they are.

Thank you to everyone who came along and supported us — we’ll see you at the next one! 🙌

🐷🥧 SOMETHING NEW HAS JOINED THE FAMILY… 🥧🐷

We’re delighted to introduce the newest member of the Carpenters Arms pie family…

🥧 THE BALMORAL PORK PIE 🥧

Haggis & Black Pudding Pork Pie

A proper pork pie with a Scottish twist! 🇬🇧🏴

Packed with flavour and made for those who like their pies properly hearty, the Balmoral brings together delicious pork, rich haggis and black pudding, all wrapped up in that classic golden pastry we know and love.

And of course, it joins some firm favourites in the family:

🐷 Plain Pork Pie
🧀 Stilton Topped
🏴 Balmoral – Haggis & Black Pudding
🧀 Red Leicester
🥓 Ploughman’s

Proper pies. Proper pub. Properly delicious. ❤️

Pop in to The Carpenters Arms and give the new Balmoral a try — we’d love to know what you think!

🥧🍻
