What Our Customers Say
“The best square slice sausage you will find! Personally i think tbe onion square is by far the best!. Always happy and friendly staff, always a good visit to this shop!”
via Google“Want to thank the member of staff who looked after me on Friday 5th when I was feeling unwell. A big thank you. Got home OK and look forward to picking up my pie on 27th 😋😋”
via Google“Amazing Victoria sponge cake. Probably one of the best I have tasted so I decided to buy the apple pie to take home but unfortunately was a bit disappointing and it tasted a bit of onions which was so strange. Will definitely come back to try other delicious things tho as the service was great shame about the pungent smell and taste of the onions on the pie. 🥧”

(Melts in the mouth)Easily cut and flakes nicely, the pastry flaky and rich.The gravy just perfect ,compliments other ingredients wonderfully.Many thanks to Leanne,Anne and rest of the staff for staring 2025 with a steak pie hit! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻”
