Back to Mobson's. There's nothing to beat a good pub That serves real ale and great grub Great pies with some sauce [Although we ate at various British pubs, one stood out. It was a bit outside Sheffield - Dungworth and specialised in pies and had two big dogs underneath our table. I don't that would be allowed in NZ. Pies aren't quite as ubiquitous in Britain as they are in NZ, where a pie is the usual workman's lunch.] Edited by Caro, Jan 12 2013, 08:01 PM.
