Celebrate with our Classic Ploughman's Board 🧀

Enjoy a generous, rich, mature cheddar cheese wedge and a beautifully flavourful Stilton blue cheese.

We serve this wonderful cheese pairing alongside a traditional halved pork pie, premium Dorset ham, pickled onions, and a sweet red onion chutney. Finished with fresh grapes, celery sticks, chef’s coleslaw, a crisp side salad, and a warm, crusty ciabatta. 🥖

It is the perfect excuse to skip cooking today, catch up with a friend, and enjoy a relaxing afternoon at the Pantry. We hope to see you soon.
