This is a must go to place anytime you're around Smithfield! You give your food and drink order at the bar when you first come in. The atmosphere is that of a bar right out of an English novel. There were a nice selection of English Beers. I ordered Scotch Egg to start and Lamb Biryani as my main course. I wanted to get a wider range of their menu. So I also ordered a Steak and Ale Pie from their Pub Classic section of the menu. For Dessert I go Bread Pudding. It didn't take long after we sat down that our food arrived. The Scotch Egg has the uniquely fried crust. As I cut into the it the thicken yellow yoke oozed out. It was fried just right and had superior taste. The lamb had the tenderness of a stick of butter. It was cooked perfectly to my request, medium-well. It came with spice rice

This place is a definite must when visiting the area. Dined in for dinner last night. We had for an appetizer the Scotch egg, and for our main entree my husband had the fish and chips and I had the Wellington beef Scottish style, and for dessert we had the bread pudding. Everything was excellent cooked perfectly. I will definitely be coming back here. You order at the counter, You seat yourself We sat in the back room by the fireplace. Super awesome atmosphere.

This was our first time here. I got the chicken, leek, and mushroom pie. It was absolutely wonderful. The crust was tender and flaky and the pie was so tasty. The potatoes and mashed peas were a wonderful addition. My husband got the Shepard pie and he loved it. He said the vegetables and the lamb was excellent and loved the potatoes on top. We will be returning. The atmosphere was totally a British pub style.

Wow, this place is fantastic! So glad I stumbled upon it. Staff was super friendly, atmosphere was on point and the food was absolutely delicious. I started with the Fish Bites. They were cooked perfectly with a super crunchy batter. For my main course, I went with the Steak and Ale Pie, which was served with mashed potatoes, brown gravy and mushy peas. Of course, I had to wash it all down with a couple of proper pints. The portions were huge and I could barely finish half of what I ordered. After I went to settle the tab, I tried to leave a tip and was told they wouldn't accept it, as they follow the European model for dining. Wow. I will most definitely be back here next time I am in town and if you're in the area, I highly recommend you pay them a visit!

Great food, great drinks, and an even better vibe. The Fiddlin’ Pig has a cozy, lively atmosphere, delicious pub fare (highly recommend the pretzel and the fish and chips is to DIE for!! ) … and always a delicious drink selection. The service was friendly and attentive, making the whole experience feel welcoming and easy. Definitely a place I’ll be back to! 🍻
