Reading that pork pie thread made me really hungry. Mm...
It got me thinking as well on pies.

What's your favourite pie, and where do you buy it from ?

Mine was the Cornish Pasties from Cooplands. Yum !
They no longer do it though, I don't think.
I like how they do their fillings, kinda mushed up meat and potatoes. Don't like it when it's separate. Yuck. :)

cornish pies are too hot and full of potatoes so not fo me.

i simply like hot pork pie with mint mushy peas

Pie Minister pies rule.:banana:

All pies are nice, the answer to who ate all the pies is probably me. I hate greggs but the chicken pastys are nice, But any steak and kidney pie wins it, from the supermarket the one in the tin is nice. But the best pie ever is From a shop on mansfield road not sure where exactly, but my dad brings them me they are big enough for 4 and come with a pot of home made gravy.:D lovely.

Why not try a Desperate Dan Cow Pie, available from the Pie Factory in the Black Country?

Coming as I do from over the hill in Lancashire land, I really miss Hollands Pies. They're the standard pie in chip shops over there and I grew up on them. Their cheese and onion in particular is like no other pie I've ever tasted - kinda synthetic but absolutely delicious with a bit of tomato ketchup. :love:

For my money, a traditional Sheffield Meat and Potato 'plate pie', with the obligatory Henderson's Relish [or even mint sauce] beats any Cornish or Black Country imposters. No offence intended to my dear friend and Doppleganger, Lord Chaverly.

Mmmmm, piiiiie! :D I love pie in just about any shape or form it comes in. Mum got a chicken and leek one a few months back when I went over for tea and it was scrummy! Any kind of pie will do though, although I'm not very keen on fish pie. :gag: Chicken and mushroom, Aberdeen Angus, lamb and mint, mmmmmmm! :P

Angel05 makes a fantastic steak pie by the way. ;)

dont like pies.:(
only eat cornish pasties from Cornwall. when i visit it cost me about £30 which buys me about 8 of them.
they are however the size of a dinner plate & worth every penny.

That would be O'Reilly's Cafe.

The best Home-Made Pie's in town !!!! :thumbsup:

You can't beat a nice Leicestershire Pukka Pie. Chicken and mushroom is my favourite.

I know theyre not the same but I love fruit pie, like apple or rhubarb, theyre delicious! Especially from Asda

xx

Keswick - Lake District...

There's a little pastie shop on the main road through Keswick - They make THE BEST pies and pasties i have EVER tried - without a doubt!

I love the poachers pasty from Chatsworth Farm Shop, bit expensive, but well worth it. My husband loves their vegetarian pasties as well.

Their garden vegetable pie's pretty nifty too- mmmmm, Saturday lunch out with the family before I moved up here.

You can get frozen ones in the Co-op! And what's more, they also stock Holland's baba's yeds too. Mmmmmmm.......... You'll have to make your own pea wet though.

God, the best pie for me, bar none, is the Butter Pie. I was in Morrisons and they had a sign for them. I asked for one but they had all sold out. The assistant said they'd been delivered them by mistake and it had taken them months to shift them!

No pies at all for me at the moment though cause the pastry had been making me feel ill. It gives me indigestion!!!!!!

Mmmmmm. Floor pie..... [insert drooling sounds].

My favourite pie is apple from Delifrance, with fresh custard. Yum.

My favourite pies are SWMBO's fruit pies, rhubarb, apple, apple and bilberry etc etc. - can't buy anything like them which is why I always have to be nice to her :D

Accompanied by custard of course.

Fray Bentos pies are excellent too. That puff pastry on the top is lovely and the fillings....MMMM! :D I'm right in the mood for a big pie now. Might have to get one on the way back from circus tonight. ;)

Angel05 makes a fantastic steak pie by the way. ;)

Thanx for the plug Pauly :D

Mmm Steak Pie... is the best... especially mine... dont mean to be biased :wink:

Asda do a mean steak pie too... :P yummy!

Definetly a pukka pie (steak) from local chippy yum yum.

Not a pie as such but "Chin" used to make the most delicious Patti's. Sadly he passed away a few years ago but I think I have persuaded his son to make me some!

~It's gotta be the Scouse Pie they do at Anfield :love:

Those pasties from the Proper Pasty shop are usualy quite nice! mmmmm (http://www.properpasty.co.uk/products.html)

warning To All Pie Eaters

pies Make You Fat, Plain And Simple, Fat Fat Fat Fat Fat Fat So Do Not Eat Pie

I don't know what my favourate pie is but I can tell you one I wouldn't want - any from the pie bars at Sheffield Wednesday football club.

And what's so bad about being fat exactly?

Quite partial to a hairy pie!

(Can't believe I'm the first one to lower the tone)

my grans home made fruit pie yummy yum dont know what she did but it was always mighty tasty when i was younger :love:

Cocked Hat in Attercliffe - Friday lunch meat & potato and a pint of scrumpy jack!!!

PS I really did eat all the pies <g>

That would be O'Reilly's Cafe.

Where exactly is this shop ?

Where exactly is this shop ?

On Mansfield Road. As you go away from Manor Top, it is on the left hand side, just after the fork with Woodhouse Road.

StreetMap (http://www.streetmap.co.uk/newmap.srf?x=438739&y=384787&z=0&sv=S12+2AG&st=2&pc=S12+2AG&mapp=newmap.srf&searchp=newsearch.srf)

Thats why I didnt recognise it, I always turn off at Woodhouse road.

Will give it a try.

Thanks

Denby dale meat and potato pie from Asda followed by Strawberry and rhubarb lattice from Marks & Spencer. Fab.

the meet and potato pie that my dad makes

the meat and potato pie that my dad makes

kate & Sidney ...... sorry Steak & Kidney, from O'Reillys on mansfield Road .. "Best Pies In The World .... Ever"

wheres o reillys cafe please got to get me a pie

meat and potato from haighs in cumbria.. Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

I'm a big fan of those Fray Bentos pies you get in a tin. Nice hot from the tin with some bread and butter and lashings of hendersons.

I'm sure there's not many bachelors in Sheffield who don't have at least one in their larder.

Meat and potato, made by me. I don't buy ready-made pies, I'm too worried about what "meat" is in them, and they tend to have too much salt in and cost too much.

Ginsters used to do a bean and bacon pie.
Anybody know where it went?

Pasties from Annes pasties on the Lizard in Cornwall, and to take them and sit on the headland below the lighthouse. Excellent.

The one Nomme made last night from the Delicious magazine. Kedgeree pie. Yum yum.

Any pies from the pies from Lime Tree pantry company at Edwinstow?? (they usually do the farmers markets) are fantastic. They do friut and meat and veggie pies. They are all fantastic, lovely and loads of filling, though they are a bit expensive.

And the chicken and ham pie from Coppice farm shop in Rivelin. It is like a pork pie type cold pie but all chicken and ham. Wow.

Though anything with mushrooms is a no no. Why do all companies do mushrooms with chicken. So wrong.

I like cherry pie, that can be nice.

Has anyone said chin pie yet? :o

Our favorite pie is steak pie. But we don't buy them! I make them :D They are yummy!! Great hunks of steak in gravy with my yummy pastry. I havn't made one in a while, Alcatraz is having withdrawal symptoms :)

For pie connoisseurs, you can't beat Denby Dale pies; their Steak & 'Black Sheep Ale' pie is just about the best you can get.

Semi pie related but I noticed the Perfect Pasty shop near Fitzalen Square has shut, it's only been open a few months.

Dont really like pies, the only ones i like occasionaly are fray bentos as the pastry is lovely and light :thumbsup:

Lime Tree Pantry pies are fantastic.
Various meat and fish , and assorted fruit pies available from chatsworth house, the farmers market on the Moor every month and a number of farm shops.
I've tried most of their varieties and they've all been lovely.

A beef pie (pork pie style) from Percy Turners bakery, bought from harley village shop on thursdays.

It's a tradition.

Wilf

Blackberry and apple or Strawberry and Gooseberry and would make it myself

Warmed pie with Ice cream on it Yummmy

I love hot pork pies soaked in vinegar (Drool) can't have one though cos still on a diet :(

I'd have to agree that a Fray Bentos pie has never disappointed - steak and ale and chicken and mushroom being my favourite. I don't like kidneys (my kidneys don't like me). Did you know that Fray Bentos is a town in Western Uruguay, the original location for the Liebig Extract of Meat Company (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liebig_Extract_of_Meat_Company)?

On the subject of pasties, Perfectionary on Shazzavale Road makes the best cornish I have ever had in my life - TOTAL TASTE SENSATION.

My Grandmas meat and potato pie with lashings of hendo's! Don't plan on doing anything for the rest of the day though, I'm always crippled with indigestion after!! :hihi:

Banoffee pie, yum.

I completely agree about the mushed up meat and potato bit.

Any pie is nice though when sat at a cold football stadium.

mmmmmmm all this talk of pies..is making me very verrrry hungry =oP Id settle for a sausage roll... could that be classsed as a type of pie??

Chicken and Mushroom pies or the famous Balti pies at Hillsborough, or one that could beat the lot, a steak bake from Greggeroonies. Legendary

Those little scotch pies made with really hard crust and aberdeen angus steak! Think you can get them from Asda in packs of 4. You need tarmac thick gravy to go with them though.

Recently had a Welsh Oggie which was pretty immense as well.

Locally would have to go for either the savoury or fruit pies available at Lunch Box in Chap. The food there is really, really smart.

Jim:thumbsup:

Melton Mowbery pork pies are awesome.

They're not real scotch pies though, they should be made from mutton.

I was back home last weekend (Northumberland) and I had far too many Scotch Pies. Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm, I love them.

Can't seem to find a proper one in Sheffield though, any pointers would be great :)

I'm in Edinburgh in a fortnight....I'm thinking of making a treck to a butchers in Fife who won the 2006 world scotch pie championship.

Do I like them too much? Haha....I'm not fat, honest.

Missus! You can't not like a good pie, yet like pink uncooked sausge meat in cheap greasy pastry from Greggs.....Ha'way man pet! ;-)

I will excuse it if it's a hangover cure and you need "stodge".

Or if you buy your pies from Greggs...that's fair comment....I always take a girl out to a classy pie shop....I'm a good date me like, haha.

Mine is apple pie and cream and aint bothered where i get it from:) :)
