Explore Melton Mowbray

Known for

The Melton Mowbray pork pie (PGI-protected, made here since the 18th century), Stilton cheese (also PGI-protected and made in Leicestershire), the hunting capital of England, and a Leicestershire market town of extraordinary food heritage

A little history

Melton Mowbray has been producing hand-raised pork pies since the 18th century — the distinctive bow-sided pie shape is protected by PGI. The Vale of Belvoir nearby produces Stilton cheese. The town was for centuries the most fashionable fox-hunting destination in England — society came from London to hunt.

📍 Local tip

Buy a genuine Melton Mowbray pork pie from Ye Olde Pork Pie Shoppe — the real thing is extraordinary. Tuxford & Tebbutt for Stilton. The Tuesday and Saturday markets for local produce. The hunting heritage trail.
