Hobbsons Pie Shop (formerly Browns Pie Shop)
Hobbsons Restaurant and Pie Shop
A pie shop on Steep Hill for over forty years, originally called Browns Pie Shop, serving handmade English pies and Sunday roasts in a 17th-century building.
The shop is at 33 Steep Hill. From 1987 it operated as Browns Pie Shop, and it is now run by Hobbsons. It occupies a 17th-century building, with a blue plaque at the door saying 'Lawrence of Arabia' once lived here, and a vaulted cellar beneath. Handmade pies are the signature, with fish, seafood, steak, game, vegetarian and gluten-free options. On Sundays there is a traditional roast with a giant Yorkshire pudding, along with Lincolnshire haslet sausage rolls. Closed Monday and Tuesday; table reservations can be made by email. It is about a 3-minute walk from the cathedral and about 1.5 km from the railway station.
