Join us on Wednesday 15th April, as we, in partnership with Wallingford’s brilliant volunteer-run Corn Exchange, turn Pigs into a Parisian café for the day.
This year marks the 25th anniversary of the release of Amélie (our Exec Chef, Aimee’s all-time favourite film), and the Corn Exchange are showing two screenings of the quirky, beautifully-soundtracked film. One, a matinee at 2.30pm and one in the evening at 7.30pm.
While you’re able to get tickets on the Corn Exchange website, we’ve also created special lunch and dinner events for each screening, so you’re able to join us at Pigs for some French classics before tootling up the road. Or, if you fancy just a ticket and some bougee cinema snacks, we’ve got you covered too. Read on for details.
