Cisse Posted August 1, 2019 Share Posted August 1, 2019 I'm coming over next month with a couple of my friends. Can you suggest a place where we can get a really delicious pheasant? We will visit Derby, Birmingham, Bakewell, Chestefield and London. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sith Happens Posted August 1, 2019 Share Posted August 1, 2019 I don't know to be honest, but when i first read your post i thought you said peasant, i was going to say you are out of luck because you aren't visiting Nottinghamshire as thats the only place in the uk that is renowned for its cannablism. Sorry for the unhelpful post, enioy your trip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't it coincide with Grouse shooting on the Glorious 12th (of August) then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've no idea either, it's not really my bag either. Have pheasants in the garden but prefer the partridges which are hilarious with their formation running. Ps Still got my fingers crossed for your dog. Hope he's ok? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parsnip Posted August 1, 2019 Share Posted August 1, 2019 Dunno about pheasant but on Sunday we went to the Hunlocke Arms in Chesterfield and sweet baby Moses that is a brilliant place! Get in there! And it has the advantage of being just outside of Chesterfield too so you don't actually have to set foot in that absolute armpit of a town.

If Needlesh is correct, then the start of the pheasant season will be the second most important event on 1st October. That's because someone leaves their teen years behind on the same day...

I presume you will be using buses and trains so are looking for town centre places. I notice no mention of Belper. Harrumph. What kind of food are you all after? Indian? Italian? Pub food? Posh nosh?

Millenniumram Posted August 1, 2019 Share Posted August 1, 2019 Go to Birmingham and buy a gun off the many dodgy dealers round those parts. Take it to Derby and shoot a pheasant round kedleston. Head to bakewell which hasn’t changed since Jesus was a lad and cook it on an open fire up there. Nip across to chesterfield, get a train to London, and sell it to the mugs there who’ll think it’s some rare meat for £30 a slice. Sounds like a profitable trip to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not until the 1st October, and then you would be looking at Barlow / Bakewell area's, or maybe some high end in Birmingham/London. However Grouse season starts in 10 days.

Bwash_Ram Posted August 2, 2019 Share Posted August 2, 2019 Saracens Head near Ashbourne is amazing, they do an incredible roast Duck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cisse Posted August 2, 2019 Author Share Posted August 2, 2019 Our taste varies but me myself and I was hoping for pheasant which I saw a loads of when Sage gave me a tour in Midlands on my last visit. Belper is included on our trip too I reckon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t know about the right season for pheasant but if you want fine dining in Derbyshire then my picks would be Fishers at Baslow Hall and The Peacock at Rowsley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mucker1884 Posted August 2, 2019 Share Posted August 2, 2019 The Subway next to PPS do a nice line in "Turkey Ham"... which I believe is not too dissimilar to pheasant... or was it a horse... I forget now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
