The 'Cider and Shortcrust' at the Botanist Bar
Wednesday 16th September 12-8pm
The Botanist Bar, 35 Broadgate Circle, London EC2M 2QS
Higgidy, the maker of delicious pies, are celebrating the launch of their tasty brand-new shortcrust pastry pie, made in collaboration with the UK's number 1 cider brand, Thatchers, with a one-day bar takeover celebration on Wednesday 16th September, dressed to celebrate Autumn apple harvest time.
'The Cider and Shortcrust' at The Botanist near Liverpool St, London will offer hungry City workers the chance to pick up a hot Higgidy Creamy Chicken, Mushroom and Thatchers Gold Cider Pie for just £2 throughout the day or tuck into the ultimate Pie and Pint Meal Deal with a Higgidy Pie and a Pint of Thatchers Gold for just £5.
Designed to coincide with both the launch of the new pie, the approach of the colder winter months when tucking into a hot pie appeals most, and the apple harvest, the bar takeover will see the space transformed for the day with everything from apple trees to signature Higgidy imagery and props and bespoke pie and pint bars brought in.
The special Higgidy and Thatchers Cider pies and pints will be available from 12 – 8pm, making the tasty pies and pints the perfect lunch or early supper for those working, or visiting, the area.
The event is designed to celebrate the brand new creamy, free-range, 100% British chicken pie, made with a mix of white and chestnut mushrooms and golden Thatchers Cider, encased in butter enriched shortcrust pastry, with an all-butter puff pastry lid, hand-sprinkled with a garlic and thyme crumb. The flavour is enhanced with blended beans and butternut squash puree and made with whipping cream for extra indulgence.
'The Cider and Shortcrust' bar will be open to all. To find out more follow Higgidy on social media @higgidy where full details of the event will be made available.
