Trying the viral Crack Pie at The Brick Yard, Brighouse

Earlier this month, we were invited to visit The Brick Yard, situated in Brighouse.

This is a truly unique spot in the Yorkshire foodie scene, located in, you guessed it, an industrial estate.

Inside, exposed brick interiors and glossy wooden tables invite you in – it isn’t the largest site, but has an open, spacious feel to it.

Good Food Guide has even named The Brick Yard as one of the top 50 Sunday Roasts in the UK, but we went to try some of their new small plates.

Some of the highlights included a fresh pan-roasted cod fillet, with clam, chilli and spring onion Tom Yum bisque, and Gochujang glazed buttermilk chicken thighs.

We of course tucked into their wild garlic flatbread topped with a generous helping of parmesan and their Sauteed Wye Valley asparagus with harissa was the perfect side dish.

The Brickyard has certainly build up a popular following, especially with those local to the area, eager foodies making the trip from Leeds.

Service was attentive and personal, something this restaurant has been praised for.

Dessert was an offer we couldn’t refuse, and is stand out at Brickyard, so make sure you save room if you’re visiting yourself.

Their dessert menu changes frequently, but on our visit, we tried The Brick Yard’s decadent take on the classic Tiramisu.

Boozy amaretto cake pops, rich mascarpone cream and espresso chocolate sauce, this sharing dessert was rich and moreish, the perfect end to our meal.

This isn’t the only dessert on our radar; in fact, one sweet treat has a particular place in our hearts. Crack Pie.

Milk Bar Pie, known as “Crack Pie” is a famously rich, gooey, and addictive dessert created by chef Christina Tosi of Milk Bar in NEW York, 2008.

Although we haven’t made the trip to the Big Apple ourselves, The Brick Yard’s rendition of this salty-sweet dessert is everything we imagined and more.

You’ll have to give it a try for yourself.
