Still got to be Yates's on Henry st. Church. They are always trying out different things while keeping the old favourites. Proper old fashioned bakers.

I think there are far better pies than Holland's. I don't know the name of the Preston firm's I like.

I am keen on snake and pigmy pies and puddings.
Spot on Bob Jen got some Cissy Green's a couple of years ago and sent um over far me, used to call in regular when I lived in Hassy

Saintys pies from barnoldswick are good, inghams butchers in foulridge are also good, berkins butchers in rosegrove make fantastic pork pies.

Re: Who makes the best pies??
There's a pie shop that my dad goes to a few times a month on the way to Preston (just before you get there), they sell the most amazing pies ever, pastry doesn't get on with my tummy but their pastry for some reason does

Re: Who makes the best pies??
Can always remember the first time I worked in Scotland went into the chippy and of course fish and chips are known as a fish supper, one of the lads didn't want a fish supper, he wanted meat pie and chips, the woman serving asked if he wanted it warm or cold, warm please was the reply, at which the lady tossed the pie in the deep fat fryer

Re: Who makes the best pies??
What I don't understand is why a thread about pies is stuck in Accy Photos -there isn't even a photo of a pie on it! Or am I missing something -perhaps it's a withdrawal symptom -can't get pies in Italy...
