What Our Customers Say
βThe 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!β
via GoogleβWant 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 ππβ
via GoogleβAmazing 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. π₯§β
via GoogleβI usually buy steak pie from the supermarket but decided this year to get the real McCoy!And so glad I did (being a chef π¨βπ³ in my previous life,)Iβm very particular when it comes to food!)Steak pie from here did not disappoint,easily cooked in the oven,upon cutting you get this wonderful aroma,the beef cooked as it should be! (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! ππ»ππ»ππ»β
