Taste

From sausages to shortbread, pies to parkin and cheese to chocolate, the South Pennines is very proud of its food. There are wine producers and cider producers too. All of them passionate about what they produce. And don't get us started on beer. The South Pennines boasts so many breweries that we had to create a website to celebrate them all...

We hope you'll buy local produce to take home with you and share with your friends, but please get stuck in while you're here. Smell it, taste it and buy some more.
