Few things capture the essence of Britain's towns and cities more fervently than football and food, yet when combined, they become implacable foes. Balti pies served from tin trays and rubbery burgers that cost north of a tenner are typical of the over-the-counter fare that greets fans through the turnstile. However, it doesn't have to be this way. As Britain embraces a craft revolution of locally made produce, we, the traveling football fans, have a unique opportunity to experience the country in a way few others can. We can indulge in cockles and mussels on the southeast coast, savor smack barm and pey wet in Lancashire, and traverse an explosion of craft distillers and breweries, all in the name of the club we love. The Great Pie Revolt is the definitive guide to the cafes, market stalls, takeaways, microbrewers, pubs, and bars that pride themselves on their locality. It is proof that when paired properly, football and food are a match made in heaven, yet both are in dire need of a spectator-driven revolt.
